Lindsay Lohan has revealed she hasn’t had to audition since her infamous feature film debut in the 1998 version of The Parent Trap.

The actress, 38, casually dropped the bombshell during an appearance on Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live, where she also shared a hilarious anecdote from the film’s premiere.

The surprising admission came when Bravo star Andy, 56, asked if there was another role she auditioned for that she didn’t get.

“I mean, the first movie I auditioned for was The Parent Trap and I didn’t… I haven’t auditioned since then,” she said.

Fans were quick to label Lindsay’s revelation as a ‘huge flex’ on social media, with one writing: ‘Queen. They handed over her roles.’

Another said: ‘It’s a huge FLEX not having to audition for more roles after 12.

‘She did so well as twins in Parent Trap that she honestly deserved an Oscar.

‘Lindsay Lohan is a true icon!!!!!’

Echoing a similar sentiment, a third said: ‘It’s because she’s an absolute LEGEND.’

Elsewhere in her chat, Andy asked her about a rumor that a Disney executive asked where her twin sister was at the premiere.

And not only did Lindsay confirm it, but she also revealed that the CEO was then-Disney boss Michael Eisner.

‘I don’t even know how I was going to say this, but I’ll never forget what I said. I said, “Well, you should have paid me double because I don’t have anybody,” she said as Andy and the audience burst into laughter.

Lindsay played identical twins Hallie Parker and Annie James in Disney’s Parent Trap, who were separated at birth and lived in different countries… until a fateful summer camp brings them together.

“I mean, the first movie I auditioned for was The Parent Trap and I didn’t… I haven’t auditioned since then,” Lindsay revealed

While the former child star doesn’t have a twin sister in real life, she does have a younger sister, Aliana, who actually had a small role in The Parent Trap as ‘Child at Airport.’

The Parent Trap was a remake of the 1961 film of the same name, with Hayley Mills playing both siblings and Maureen O’Hara and Brian Keith playing the parents.

Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson played Lindsay’s parents in the film, whose children have a plan to bring them back together.

The film, directed by Nancy Meyers, was not a huge hit, taking in just $92 million worldwide, although it helped launch Lohan’s career.
