After a string of legal battles and a gracing the cover of Playboy magazine, Hollywood bad girl Lindsey Lohan will be hosting "Saturday Night Live."

Lohan was eager to begin her comeback to the mainstream according to TMZ, so she reached out to Lorne Michaels, the executive producer of SNL, in order to book herself the hosting gig.

Lohan has always found Michaels very fatherly toward her, TMZ reports. She's been eager to host the show again, but has been waiting for the right moment to come back to the sketch-comedy show.

Lohan's community service sentence is coming to an end reports TMZ. With the end in sight, Lohan called Michaels and the two mulled over ideas before finally setting a date -- March 3.

TMZ says that Lindsey wants to prove to people she's "an actress... not a defendant." We shall see whether her acting skills have deteriorated along with her public image.
