And there's little doubt that this is one circumstance where she needed to avoid being her own worst enemy. How could she have done so? By following through with these tips that we learned from Winfrey's past interviews. Here, Lindsay, is how you could continue your comeback.
Actually Say Something
Winfrey's 1988 interview with Elizabeth Taylor wasn't only disastrous because of their rivaling, rising hairdos. The iconic actress proved to be so tight-lipped about her life that Winfrey still recalls the interview as "painful to watch."
Don't Lie to Oprah
Were you out clubbing last night, Lindsay? You weren't? Are you sure? You might want to cop to whatever shenanigans you're up to when the cameras are turned off, or else you might end up like the last man who lied to Winfrey, A Million Little Pieces author James Frey. And we really prefer you in one piece.
Don't Be Too Optimistic About an Uncertain Future
Otherwise, you could end up a laughingstock like Tom Cruise, who celebrated his doomed relationship with Katie Holmes during a 2005 episode of Oprah. So you might want to lay low for awhile, Lindsay. So low that you're actually sitting on a sofa, in fact.
Do Talk About Sex, Baby
Otherwise, your unwillingness to discuss your sex life will dominate headlines as much as Michael Jackson's non-answers answers about his virginity following his interview with Winfrey. Shamone, and own it.
Bring a Wagon
One of Winfrey's most famous subjects? A wagon full of 67 pounds of fat, which the talk show host lost during one of her many diets. If that could be part of the national conversation for years, then why can't you, Lindsay?
