Worse for wear: Lindsay Lohan tried to cover her face as she strolled through the crowds at the Coachella festival in California yesterday night


Due in court next week on theft charges, you would think Lindsay Lohan might want to keep a low profile for a while.

But the 24-year-old actress clearly couldn't resist the temptation to check out some bands at the Coachella music festival yesterday.

Wearing a black patterned playsuit and a cropped pink jacket, Lindsay made a half hearted attempt to hide her bleary eyes with her cream hat.

Lindsay has denied accusations of stealing a $2,500 necklace from a Venice Beach boutique.

The star is currently facing trial and a possible jail sentence.

However, Lindsay already seems to be looking beyond her court appearance.

Last week, she appeared at a news conference after apparently being chosen to star as Victoria Gotti, daughter of late mobster John Gotti, in a $75m movie about the family.

Mindful of Lindsay's upcoming hearing, producers stopped short of confirming Lindsay for the film, which will star John Travolta as the notorious crime boss.
