HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Lindsay Lohan is speaking out about the tabloid buzz surrounding her suddenly very thin frame.
"It's not intentional," the 22-year-old actress tells Us Weekly of her noticeable weight loss.
"I eat," she continued. "I had my Big Mac yesterday from McDonald's. I eat just as much as I always have."
Lohan admitted that she's lost some weight, but explained that it's mostly due to "working a lot, stress ... and lack of sleep when I travel."
"I think it's all that stuff that adds up," she told the mag.
There were recent tabloid claims that Lohan and her girlfriend, Samantha Ronson, were competing to see who could be thinner, a claim that was later denied by a rep for the "Mean Girls" star.
When asked by Us how much weight she's lost, Lohan said: "I've never weighed myself in life." She then insisted that she doesn't worry about what people say or write about her.
"I'm my own person, and people can say whatever they want. I'm still going to be the person that I am," she explained.
"I'm not perfect; nobody is perfect," she added. "If you try to be perfect, you'll probably go crazy. But you should always accept yourself for who you are. And that's what I've done, and I'm happy."
