Lindsay Lohan Withdraws from Movie for Rehab

Lindsay Lohan has taken a pounding in the press for her laissez-faire attitude towards rehab, and at least some part of the message made its way through.  The Gossip Girls have learned that Lindsay has decided to remove herself from the upcoming film “A Woman of No Importance”.  This move was made so that she can focus all of her energies on getting better.

Lohan’s publicist, Leslie Sloane Zelnik, told TMZ that Lindsay is “putting herself first and decided not to push herself”.  Lohan, says Sloane, will be taking a few more months of downtime before she embarks on the press tour for the upcoming “Georgia Rule.”

As reported by The Gossip Girls on Monday, many residents at the rehabilitation facility (Wonderland) in Los Angeles were upset with Lohan’s trips out of the facility, and the fact that she was being allowed to continue work on her new movie while in rehab.  This is the first step in the right direction, but there is still a long way to go.  Lohan is still one of the hottest stars in Hollywood, and has a chance to show that she is committed to change.

Also, in other news that is only somewhat related to this story, but totally worth mentioning; Mike Tyson is now attending the same rehab facility as Lohan.  I wonder what Vegas would set the odds at for Tyson and Lohan hooking up in rehab?
