"I really enjoy singing and I really enjoy acting, but singing I've been doing since I was really young"
About this Quote
Context does the heavy lifting. Lohan came up as a child actor in a system that rewards reinvention but punishes inconsistency. By framing singing as the earlier, almost pre-professional impulse, she’s not competing with her acting résumé so much as expanding it. The subtext is strategic: if acting is what you know me for, singing is what I’ve always been. That timeline matters because celebrity culture is skeptical of the actor-who-wants-to-sing trope, often coded as vanity. Her phrasing tries to disarm that suspicion by making music feel inevitable rather than opportunistic.
The quote also signals a desire to control the narrative around her talents at a moment when her image was frequently mediated through tabloids and instability. Anchoring herself in a childhood practice is a way of claiming continuity: behind the headlines, there’s still a person with a skill she’s been building for years. In one sentence, she’s auditioning for permission.
