Lindsay Lohan will sit down for a one-on-one interview with Barbara Walters but the reason why she's agreed to do it is a whole other story and Breaking Celebrity News has exclusive details.

The embattled 26-year-old actress racked up a whopping $46,000 bill at the famed Chateau Marmont over a period of 47 days and was subsequently banned from the West Hollywood hotspot until she could pay up — which is where her Liz & [expletive] producers came into play.

According to The Daily, Lindsay would only agree to do the interview with Barbara and promote the Lifetime movie if the producers would pay her overdue hotel bill.

"Part of Lindsay's contract with the producers of Liz & [expletive] was that she was not to do any press to promote the movie before it aired," a source close to the actress exclusively told Breaking Celebrity News.

"But when Lindsay requested that production pick up her hotel bill, the producers said they'd be more than happy to pick up the tab, but in exchange Lindsay would have to agree to a sit-down interview to promote the movie."

The insider tells Breaking Celebrity News that Lindsay wasn't thrilled about having to do the tell-all interview, and there are no guidelines in regards to what Barbara can or cannot ask Lindsay.

"Lindsay wasn't happy about it, but realized that she was stuck and agreed to do it," the insider said.

"There will be no questions that are off limits and expect Walters to grill Lindsay about her personal life, recent arrest, and fight with her mother Dina."
