The Mean Girls star fled to Nicholsons home, while avoiding paparazzi attention following a night out, reports the Daily Express.
The whole incident was caught on camera.
The footage aired on U.S. news show Extra shows Lohan trying to gain access via a security intercom, and explaining: "We’re at the gate… It’s Lindsay."
A man sounding like Nicholson demanded: "Who?"
He further said: "What’s going on out there? What do you want me to do, honey?"
Lohan then instructed her passenger to ask the man on the other end of the intercom to open the gates for the girls, and her car went inside Nicholson’s pad.
