[FONT="]'I should have been the Black Swan!': Lindsay Lohan furious about missing out on Natalie Portman's Oscar-winning role[/FONT]
[FONT="]She hasn't been seen on the big screen for over a year, mostly due to her continuous legal woes and recent house arrest.[/FONT]
[FONT="]But it appears that Lindsay Lohan still thinks her acting chops are up to the standard of Oscar-winning actress' such as Natalie Portman.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The 25-year-old troubled actress, who was back at work today on the music video set for Miggs' 'Let the Games Begin' told a Miami reporter that she was disappointed that she didn't get a coveted role in Portman's hit film Black Swan.[/FONT]
[FONT="] The proclamation came during a recent photoshoot for Plum Miami magazine in Miami, which took place back in May before her house arrest.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Although Lindsay posed for the magazine, she refused to do an interview with the publication's writer Jacquelynn Powers, prompting the journalist to instead write an unflattering profile about Lindsay on the set of the shoot.[/FONT]
[FONT="]During her time in Miami, Lindsay claimed she 'took ballet until she was 19 and was indignant that she was not considered for the movie Black Swan,' Powers said.[/FONT]
[FONT="]And the Mean Girls star's diva antics didn't stop there.[/FONT]
[FONT="]According to Powers, Lohan was difficult from the word go. [/FONT]
[FONT="]When the actress arrived for the job, Powers witnessed her tell off a valet and using her 'name' so she didn't have to wait for other cars to move out of her way.[/FONT]
[FONT="]'As we pulled up to the Fontainebleau, a bright-orange parking cone was blocking the entrance. Not accustomed to waiting, apparently, she lowered the car's window and shouted "Move that cone. I'm Lindsay Lohan." And it was done,' revealed Powers.[/FONT]
[FONT="]She added of Lohan's attitude during the shoot: '(She was) constantly looking for drama, whether it was picking a fight with her younger sister...or freaking out over a lost pair of Zanotti heels.'[/FONT]
[FONT="]And the proof is in the pudding, it seems, in the form of a video of the shoot for Bravo's show Double Exposure.[/FONT]
[FONT="]In the clip, the actress is seen turning up late for the job, costing the magazine $100,000 for going into overtime. As soon as she walks onto the set, Lohan, who is puffing away at a cigarette, heads straight to a window and says 'Can I open this?'[/FONT]
[FONT="]She then proceeds to struts over to some outfits laid out on the table, picking up a garment saying: 'This is Ungaro, I did this for Ungaro.' [/FONT]
[FONT="]What she is referring to is her critically panned 2010 Autumn/Winter collection for French design house Emanuel Ungaro.[/FONT]
[FONT="]In order to placate the actress and stroke her ego, someone on the set then in turn says: 'Wow you are so talented.'[/FONT]
[FONT="]Throughout the photoshoot, a jittery Lohan is seen nervously laughing as she poses for the camera.[/FONT]
[FONT="]'There's so many people watching me right now,' she says. [/FONT]
[FONT="]And halfway through, when hairstylist attempts to touch up her hair, Lohan snaps, insisting that her hair must be kept down, prompting the actress to tell him off.[/FONT]
[FONT="]'It's my hair, not yours,' she snaps.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Then, when Lohan is asked to pose on a stripper pole, she inspects it, claiming that it is dirty.[/FONT]
[FONT="]After being handed a wet wipe by a male assistant, she proceeds to clean it, all whilst screwing up her face, finally hurling the dirty tissue back to the man.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Her strange behaviour even makes the photographer nervous.[/FONT]
[FONT="]'(She has) a dangerous element to her presence,' he says off to the side.[/FONT]
[FONT="]'You never know what's gonna happen in the next 2-1/2 seconds. Is she gonna bite you?' he asks.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Later as the crew gush over Lohan's sexy rock and roll poses, she is told by a woman: "Lindsay, you are the most beautiful woman in the world."[/FONT]
[FONT="]To which Lohan brashly replies: 'Tell Samantha that,' referring to her girlfriend, DJ Samantha Ronson.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Powers also revealed that during the shoot Lohan sipped on a glass of wine, all while talking frankly about being alcohol free. [/FONT]
[FONT="]And, even though Lohan failed to give her interview to the writer, she still refused to leave the expensive hotel that the magazine was footing the bill for her to stay in. [/FONT]
[FONT="]'Monday morning was supposed to be check-out time, but Lindsay and her posse refused to leave,' Powers wrote.[/FONT]
[FONT="]'It was like watching the lights come on at a nightclub after-hours -- not pretty.'[/FONT]
[FONT="]The legally troubled star, who spent 35 days under house arrest for a probation violation, has been very socially active since regaining her freedom, last month.[/FONT]
[FONT="]She celebrated her 25th birthday on the 2nd July by joining friends for a dinner out before spending two days relaxing on the beach in Malibu and celebrating Independence Day.[/FONT]
[FONT="]She was joined by ex-girlfriend Courtenay Semel who sat alongside her on the sand as they waited for a fireworks display to start.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Lindsay recently said she was looking forward to getting back to work following her lengthy legal battles.[/FONT]
[FONT="]In an interview conducted during her house arrest, she spoke about her upcoming role alongside John Travolta in mob boss movie GOTTI: In The Shadow Of My Father.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Talking about the role, Lindsay said: 'In October I’ll begin work. I hope to spend next year on set.' (dailymail.co.uk)

How she could survive such brutality is anyone's guess- the woman is a paragon of strength!!
And three years of probation?? Odds of her staying out of trouble that long: Zero!!
(Everyone knows going out to a club where everyone is drinking is the BEST thing to do under the circumstances...)
