Actress Lindsay Lohan wants British citizenship and can "definitely" see herself settling here permanently.

"I can definitely see myself settling in London permanently," Lohan said.

Asked if she would apply for British citizenship, she replied: "If you'll have me, I will."

The "Mean Girls" star, who has endured numerous legal problems and stints in rehab in the last few years, credits moving to Britain with helping her completely change her life, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I'm in a really good place. I'm blessed to have been able to do a play in London and start a different way of life. New York is very fast paced and it's not like that over here for me.

You grow up and change, and I'm really happy about that, as overall I feel a lot better. Moving here was a new start for me and my outlook on life is different now," she said.

The 28-year-old star adores exploring new areas of the city and venturing further afield when she isn't working.

"For me, I feel more comfortable working from London. And it is beautiful. The architecture is incredible and the parks are so nice. I also love exploring different cities and using London as a base means I can go to more places. That's really important to me," Lohan told HELLO! Magazine.
