When she appeared on the ‘Tonight Show’ this week, Lindsay Lohan, age 24, was asked by Jay Leno where she sees herself at age 30.

‘Hopefully, sitting here after I’ve won an Oscar,’ she replied. ‘That would be ideal.’

Before Lohan became enmeshed in ridiculous tabloid scandals, she actually displayed real promise as an actress. She won Teen Choice and MTV Movie Awards for ‘Mean Girls’ and a Kids’ Choice Award for ‘Herbie Fully Loaded.’ She was among those nominated at the SAG Awards for best ensemble for ‘Bobby,’ which was nominated for best drama picture at the Golden Globes. There was even serious scuttlebutt that she might nab an Oscar nom for ‘Bobby.’

However, LiLo eventually ended up getting such lousy film offers that she won three Razzies for ‘I Know Who Killed Me,’ a horror film so horrible that it set a new record for most Razzies in a year (eight).

Next up: She’s been cast as the wife of John Gotti Jr. in ‘Gotti: Three Generations,’ but it’s unclear if she’ll be prohibited from appearing in the film due to jail time and her sentence to community service.
