Lindsay Lohan sober for a week

Lindsay Lohan says she hasn’t had a drink in seven days and has actually been attending AA for a year now. She tells People:

“I just left an AA meeting. I’ve been going to AA, for a year by the way. Well it’s no one’s business. That’s why it’s anonymous! I haven’t had a drink in seven days. Or anything. I’m not even legal to, so why would I? I don’t drink when I go to clubs. I drink with my friends at home, but there’s no need to. I feel better not drinking. It’s more fun. I have Red Bull.

I didn’t feel bad before. I never felt bad. I just wanted to, like, find a balance. I was out too much. I was too caught up. I mean, I’m 20 years old. I was off from work, I was getting ready to start a film, and I was like going out just to get it out of my system. I was going out too much and I knew that, and I have more to live for than that. I was like, I don’t want to be written about at these clubs with these people. I work, I act, I have a living. That’s what I do every day. I work every single day.”

Asked if she had advice for those seeking recovery from substance abuse, Lohan said, “I think, don’t do it for someone else. Do it for you, ’cause if you do it for someone else you’re going to relapse. It’s not going to be a change. You have to really do something if you want to do it and … if it doesn’t work, you’re not meant to.”

So what we’ve seen from Lindsay so far is a years worth of AA? She might as well have been attending knitting class. In fact I’m pretty sure she was attending knitting class and just didn’t know it. She probably comes home every week with some newly knitted mittens and is like, “Fighting alcoholism is tough.”

    I have an idea. Why doesn’t she quit AA and start taking some English classes? Nothing that comes out of her mouth makes any sense!

    I think AA stands for Absolute Asshole in her case. I didn’t know they had meetings.

    So after 52 weeks of (allegedly) going to meetings three or four times a week, she finally has been able to not consume alcohol for a single week?

    I guess I should give her kudos for this accomplishment, but I can’t help but wonder how many sponsors she has frustrated in the last year by her constantly publicized drunkenness? Doesn’t she realize that AA instills “No more drinking ever”, and not “Drink only at home with friends, but not out at the clubs”?

    Step 3 of the 12 step program: don’t get photographed in a short dress with no underwear, so that your ragged cooch isn’t on display for the whole world to see.

    I was in Santa Monica a few weeks ago, and this guy was like, “Lindsay Lohan is sitting on the beach”. So we went to take a look. But all we could see on the beach was a big pile of dogshit. So I guess the guy was right.

    lindsay lohan saying she hasn’t drank in a week is like me saying i haven’t taken a shit in a week. i mean, no one wants to hear it, and who the fuck is interested enough to actually try to validate the claims?

    oh, firecrotch.

    She’s an alcholic teenage slut. Career? Done! What we are waiting for now is; a) arrested as a street hooker, b) girl-on-girl porn, c) death, and finally d) “Lindsay Lohan, Actress”, a Vivid Entertainment production starring Mercedez and Jenna Jameson that cronicles her life as child actor, crappy artificial pop “singer”, debutard party favour, $10 street hooker taking out her teeth for blow jobs, lesbian porn actress, and dead as a forgotten dried up sperm sponge.

    “I feel better not drinking. It’s more fun. I have Red Bull.”

    Does she actually think we believe this?

    Well, we she called Parass a cunt and then denied it ten seconds later, so I guess she is either a pathological liar or the new Sybil.

    Of all the stupid-ass stuff Ho-han has done and said, this infuriates me the most. It is this kind of bullshit behavior and these kinds of irresponsible statements that makes people think that AA doesn’t work. So some people who really need the help take a look at this cooze and think, well, it doesn’t work. Why waste my time. I’ll just drink myself (or drug myself) to death since there’s no hope. And the whole point of the anonymity of AA is not to protect her sorry ass from being “outed”, but to protect the program. When assholes like this run around saying they go to AA and continue to look like and act like train wrecks, they really do a ton of harm. She really needs to shut her friggin’ pie hole. Bitch.

    She seems compelled to state how much she is working. It astounds me that she can get acting work at all. She was decidely less than ADEQUITE in “Prairie Home Companion”.
    Though, A quick trip to IMDB.com does turn up 2 gems:
    She is currently working on a project titled: A Woman of No Importance
    and in 1992 she was on Letterman as a Trick or Treater dressed as….Garbage
    Lindsay, please die.

    Wow raquel, what a sensitive, compassionate person you are. Way to be a buzzkill.

    Wow, hasn’t drank in a whole WEEK???? Somebody slap a medal on that girl. I got through 2 sentences of that babbling diatribe and felt my brain starting to melt. She’s borderline retarded.

    Meanwhile, the not drinking for a week thing is great, but she’s not telling us about all the coke she did instead. Or crack. Or pills. Whatever.

    If her being sober for 7 days is enough to make news then she must be a hard core, raging, one step away from the soup kitchen alcoholic.

    Wow, this must be Endorsements That Should Not Happen week. First Paris “helping” Britney, now Lohan talking up AA.

    Worst. Endorsement. Ever. In fact, I think on the scale of least-wanted endorsements, Lohan’s shout-out for AA actually falls below Mark Foley’s endorsement of the Log Cabin Republicans.

    Way to go, Lindsay.

    She needs to be IN rehab, as opposed to just telling people she’s been half-assedly working towards some type of unorganized self-rehab.

    I’m more for Rational Recovery than AA, but Lohan has no fucking rationale whatsoever, nor self-control, obviously. “It works if YOU work it” doesn’t mean finally after 51 weeks that you can stop drinking for seven days and expect to be fucking congratulated for your piss-poor efforts. Someone commit this girl and take away all forms of communication before she spouts off again. Because if I have to read one more fucking thing she tries to write, I am moving to another planet.

    Maybe she could just wear a fucking T-shirt that says “I’m Underaged” and then she could stay sober.

    I love it when people admit to doing something illegal but, hey, they’re celebrities so why not cut them some slack? Ten dollars says Nicole never gets jail time for her pot+vicoden habit, either.
