No jokes off limits when Lindsay Lohan hosts ‘SNL’

Lindsay Lohan’s long list of legal woes — from DUI arrests to stints in rehab and jail — will be fair game when the actress hosts an upcoming “Saturday Night Live.”

Sources close to Lohan said she told “SNL” producers that nothing will be off limits on the show’s March 3 episode, TMZ reported Monday.

The 25-year-old wants to show that she is in on the joke as she tries to put the public’s focus on her acting instead of her tabloid-worthy exploits, the sources said.

She reportedly contacted “SNL” executive producer Lorne Michaels personally and asked to host the show. She has previously hosted three times between 2004 and 2006.

Lohan is currently on probation after pleading no contest in May 2011 to stealing a $2,500 necklace from a Los Angeles boutique, in addition to a 2007 DUI case.

She appeared before a judge last week in Los Angeles to report that she had completed 15 days of community service and five therapy sessions since her previous court date in January.

Judge Stephanie Sautner was pleased with Lohan’s progress, telling her she was “in the homestretch” and could finish her probation by her next court hearing, set for March 29.

“Your probation officer is pleased … you seem to be getting your life back on track,” Sautner added, offering praise for the “positive change we’ve all seen.”

In addition to her “SNL” gig, Lohan is rumored to be preparing to star in an Elizabeth Taylor biopic on Lifetime, though the cable network would not confirm the casting report when contacted by NewsCore.
