Lindsay Lohan SNL, Lindsay Lohan leaves a progress report hearing at Venice Airport Branch Courthouse in Los Angeles in January.Lindsay Lohan’s career, interrupted by frequent trips to court, jail and rehab, may be entering a brighter phase as the actress hosts “Saturday Night Live” and her probation restrictions end next month.

“SNL! I love @NBC !!!!!!!!!!!!!” Lohan tweeted after the NBC show revealed in an on-air promo and Twitter posting that she would host its March 3 episode.

“That’s right: March 3rd, @lindsaylohan with musical guest Jack White!! See you then! #SNL #March3rd,” the show tweeted.

Lohan publicist Steve Honig also confirmed she would host the show.

“Lindsay is very much looking forward to hosting SNL and working with the incredible cast, crew and writers to put on a memorable show,” Honig said.

Lohan has hosted the show three times before, starting in May 2004 when she was 17.

The sales success of her nude photo spread in Playboy magazine, which hit news stands in December, is evidence that Lohan’s star power survived her legal troubles.

Lohan was reportedly paid nearly $1 million to pose for the photos taken in a style reminiscent of the nude photograph of Marilyn Monroe that graced the debut issue of Playboy in 1953.

Lohan’s probation began in 2007 after two drunk driving convictions, but was extended after several probation violations, including missed counseling sessions, failed drug and alcohol tests and a shoplifting conviction.

Stints in jail and court-ordered rehab cost Lohan acting jobs, but the light at the end of the strict probation tunnel appears in sight for Lohan.
