Lohan Checks Herself Back Into Rehab

LOS ANGELES -- Lindsay Lohan has checked into rehab. The move followed a weekend during which the wild-child actress crashed her Mercedes, was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence and was photographed closed-eyed and slumped in the passenger seat of a friend's car.

The 20-year-old "admitted herself to an intensive medical rehabilitation facility" on Monday, according to a statement released by her publicist, Leslie Sloane Zelnick. The statement added, "Because this is a medical matter, it is our hope that the press will appreciate the seriousness of the situation and respect the privacy of Lindsay as well as the other patients receiving treatment at the facility."

Eliminating publicist-speak, the story would say that "Lindsay Lohan regained consciousness today and had no idea where the hell she was. After discovering that she was in a rehab facility, she began to scream and bang on the padded door of the special-needs cubicle she had been placed in. She feels tremendous pressure because she has let so many of her young fans down, and also because she has a large coke shipment coming in this weekend. These are tough times for the beautiful but looney young lady."

These days, there's no hiding the illicit behavior, thanks to the aggressive tactics of Hollywood's ever-expanding paparazzi corps, who document celebrities through every nightclub-hopping step.
