Lindsay Lohan wanted lead role in "Black Swan"

According to recent news items, controversial actress Lindsay Lohan, famous for her roles in movies such as The Parent Trap remake, Mean Girls, and I Know Who Killed Me and also for her well-publicized court/rehab life, feels as though she "deserves" the role Natalie Portman had in Black Swan - that of a schizophrenic ballerina suffering from an eating disorder and stress.

Lohan reportedly took ballet until she was 19.

Do you think Lohan would have been a good choice for Nina, or too close to real-life for comfort?

Is Natalie Portman going to quit acting?

In a recent interview, Nat revealed that she may give up acting to raise her child, following in the footsteps on screen legend Audrey Hepburn.

She told The Sun's Buzz Magazine: "Audrey made some good choices in life... More and more I realize how unimportant it is to be in the history books or anything like that. Putting time and energy into your children - that's valuable."

A part of me is sad, considering how well her career has been going lately, especially with the Oscar and Golden Globe wins, but as long as she's happy with her life, I can't complain.
