London, Dec 15 (IANS): Actress Lindsay Lohan is liking her stay in the city and says she has no plans to return to the party scene as well as intense media scrutiny in Los Angeles.

In an interview with the Observer, Lohan said that London living and her relative anonymity in Britain were necessary for her to mature, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

"I can go for a run here on my own... I do every morning, early, and I think how my friends in New York would still be up partying at that time. I needed to grow up and London is a better place for me to do that than anywhere else.

"In Los Angeles I didn't know what to do, apart from go out every night. That's when my friends were free. And I would go out and there would be all these cameras there and that's when it became difficult," she said.

The "Mean Girls" actress has found her low profile strange, yet satisfactory.

"I haven't heard myself mentioned on TV since I have been here. That has been really weird for me, and great," said the actress who has been staying here for the past nine months.

She has not plans to return to Los Angeles.

"I won't live in Los Angeles again, hell no. My friends tell me shit when they come over I don't want to hear... I don't even know who got married and who got pregnant. You turn on the news in Los Angeles, and it is all gossip about people," she added.
