Lindsay Lohan spills on partying, Whitney Houston and more

So far, she's only been on the "Today" show, but we're already sick of Lindsay Lohan's big "I'm better and ready to work!" media tour. Leading up to her semi-random "Saturday Night Live" hosting gig Saturday, the starlet (who, let's face it, was basically a teen actress in a few kid movies, not some tragic fallen thespian) sat down with "Today" host Matt Lauer on Thursday to tell the world she's clean and sober. Here are some highlights of the convo:

We're gonna go out on a limb here and say that while she might be OK on "SNL," the 25-year-old's career will remain stalled for two reasons. The first: Her name has become a Hollywood punchline, and no respected producers or directors will want to cast a tabloid fixture.

The second: The public won't be able to ever see past her personal life when she's on-screen.
