Lindsay -- I'd Never Drink and Drive!
Her words might be the only thing besides jail slop that Lindsay Lohan eats for a while, as LiLo proclaimed she'd never drive drunk -- just 36 hours before her May DUI.
In late May, LiLo told Elle magazine (via the New York Daily News) that she'd never -- never -- get into a car after drinking. "They're looking for me, to like trip, so they can be like, 'Oh Lindsay's wasted and driving drunk.' And that's not it. I wouldn't violate ... I'm much more responsible than that." Of course she is.
At the photo shoot for the story, reports Page Six, Lindsay pulled a Britney and "kept shoving .. . clothes in her bag" and allegedly walked out with some pricey Louis Vuitton threads.
The next night, May 26, Lindsay was popped for DUI when she crashed her car, and less than two months later ... well, we all know what happened. Elle's September issue -- with Lindz on the cover -- comes out next week.
