Lindsay LohanLindsay Lohan Sought Treatment To Save Career
Troubled star Lindsay Lohan was forced to check herself into a rehab centre in Los Angeles last week (ends19Jan07) after causing several costly delays on her new film. The 20-year-old was reportedly on thin ice with film bosses after she showed up late during filming in December (06) and forcing them to shut down production because of her emergency appendix operation. Lohan had previously be chastised for her unprofessional behaviour while filming Georgia Rule last summer (06) and, as a result, producers of her current film had to pay a high insurance premium to employ her. A source tells American publication US Weekly, "She had to get her s**t together and get sober or else, literally, the girl could not work again." Lohan is currently in the middle of filming the thriller I Know Who Killed Me, in which she plays a stripper suffering from dual personalities after a brutal kidnapping. Her doctor has given her the okay to resume shooting and she is expected to return to the film set today (26Jan07). The Mean Girls star will still receive treatment at the Wonderland Center in Los Angeles at night and film during the day.

In one scene, the young Sean Lennon meets his father’s killer in Central Park, New York-less than a mile away from where John Lennon was killed by his stalker. Sean Lennon has said that the film’s storyline is a ‘tacky thing to make a film about’. Lohan was apparently aware of her friend’s distaste for her latest film and understood his feelings, but she had already accepted to play the role. The film was premiered at the Sundance Film Festival this month. Lindsay Lohan loves rehab.The Hollywood wild child has reportedly been having a great time since checking into the Wonderland Center, in Los Angeles, to seek help for alcoholism last week. A close friend of Lindsay's told People magazine: "She's been sending text messages from rehab saying she's the happiest she has ever been. She seems under control right now." The 'Mean Girls' actress had planned to attend the Sundance Film Festival but instead chose to stay in rehab and focus on her drinking in the peaceful surroundings. Lindsay, 20, has been enjoying regular walks around the facility's three-acres of land and attending counselling sessions. Wonderland has its own spa, yoga teachers and beauty consultants. Dr. Howard C. Samuels, Wonderland's executive director, said: "We treat the individual's emotional, spiritual and physical ailments." Lindsay only leaves rehab to attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. The actress' decision to seek treatment followed an all-night drinking binge at the Golden Globes last week, which resulted in Lindsay being found collapsed in a hotel corridor. Lindsay Lohan Stores Appendix in freezer!Lindsay Lohan was so worried her appendix would be sold on eBay she kept it in her freezer reports Female First. The 'Just My Luck' star was convinced her removed organ might fall into the wrong hands so she asked hospital staff to preserve it so she could take it home for safekeeping - putting it in a jar and freezing it. Now Lindsay's close friend Kimberly Stewart - the daughter of singer Rod Stewart - is trying to persuade her to sell her appendix anyway. A source told the National Enquirer magazine: "Kimberly thinks Lindsay should auction it for charity herself." Lindsay, 20, is currently being treated for alcoholism at the Wonderland Center rehab clinic. She is only allowed out of the clinic during the day to attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and film her latest movie 'I Know Who Killed Me'. On one of those outings, TMZ caught Lindsay Lohan at a popular celebrity hangouts in L.A. Lohan, took a break from treatment to enjoy a quiet lunch on a street crawling with paparazzi. A source tells TMZ Lindsay hit the health food joint with a couple of friends at around 2:30 PM and tried to go unnoticed in a baseball cap, ponytail and oversized sunglasses. In other news, the doctor treating her appendix problems has given her the okay to resume shooting the thriller I Know Who Killed Me reports E online. Lindsay Lohan. plays a stripper suffering from dual personalities after a brutal kidnapping. "All is good," her reps says. "She will be back at work soon." Production was halted at the beginning of the month when Lohan was apparently hospitalized for appendicitis and had her appendix removed. Since then, doctors had not given her the okay to return to work, which includes some rather risqué pole-dancing. Checking In With Lindsay LohanIt feels like months since we've had any reports on Lindsay Lohan's progress in rehab or seen any paparazzi videos aimed at taking the anonymous out of AA, so decelerated has the once-constant Lohan news cycle become since the chronically exhausted quick-healer checked into the Wonderland Center. Finally, People offers a small update on her status which might temporarily quell the delirium tremens of sudden Lohan deprivation: Since checking into the pampering Wonderland Center addiction-treatment facility last week, Lindsay Lohan has been keeping a low profile - and loving it. "She's been sending text messages from rehab saying she's the happiest she has ever been," a pal tells PEOPLE in its new issue. "She seems under control right now." Lohan, 20, who had planned to attend the Sundance film festival, has instead been taking hikes on the center's lush three acres and attending treatment meetings. It's a relief that her rehab counselors talked her out of a trip to Sundance, as the enormous strain of being whisked from swag suites to the premiere parties of unseen movies would almost certainly result in a relapse that not even a battalion of Sober Companions could forestall, and it's doubly heartening that the Wonderland staff's commitment to her recovery is so complete that they're even helping foster her budding powers of personal expression, gently editing her "PLS SEND BOOZ. IM DYING HERE. LEAVE VOKDA ON HIKING TRAIL NEAR BIG BLACK ROCK" text messages into more positive messages stressing the good her time off from the Hollywood social scene is doing her.
