LiLo’s media-whore dad, Michael Lohan, has given an interview with News Of The World saying that Lindsay is planning on quitting Hollywood, quitting bad boy boyfriend Calum Best, and finding a healthier way to deal with emotional pain.

“Lindsay said, ‘Daddy, I have done some terrible things and been addicted to drugs but please believe me I will never do drugs again.

“She said she does not want to live in Hollywood as that is where this evil in her life happens.

“She said, ‘I hate Hollywood and I don’t want to work there. I need a break and I am moving away’.”

Vowing to steer clear of sex and drug addict Calum, Lindsay added: “I will stop hanging round with people who are bad for me’.”

Michael revealed: “Lindsay said since me and her mum had split her life had just not been the same. My heart ached and I was racked with guilt when she said, ‘I just wanted my Mummy and Daddy back’.

“She was about 17 when she started to turn to drugs and for the past four years Lindsay has become more and more reliant on them.

“She said the pain of our separation led her to do drugs and alcohol because she just wanted to numb the pain and drown her sorrows.”

“You only have to look at the poor state Britney Spears is in at the moment to know living in Hollywood is not good for these young girls.

“Lindsay and I both pray Britney can turn her life around too. For Lindsay the only way to do that is to take a break. So after she has honoured her existing film commitments that will be it. She just wants to stop making movies for the time being and be near her family.”

They pray for Britney do they? Even in his prayers Michael Lohan can’t stop name-dropping to Our Lord.

The News Of the World also call Lindsay ‘the Mean Girls star’ and at first thought I was like “Hey, surely she’s done more than that?” But there’s nothing really notable. It’s amazing – at only 21 Lindsay needs to leave Hollywood in order to make a comeback. Looking at this timeline she’s been doing a lot more time in the papers than in the local cinemas. A major film studio head said earlier this year that ”She had the world at her feet, and right now, she’d have to pay a studio to get herself into a movie.”

The visit with Lindsay in rehab that Michael is referring to is the one where x17 got exclusive pictures, which I’m guessing were part of a deal and not just lucky on x17’s part. I guess Lindsay got the cash from the pictures, so her dad is selling the story of the reunion.

In case you’ve been missing Lilo, she’s meant to get out of rehab on the 17th. Brace yourselves.

Note by Celebitchy: Lohan might not grace us with her presence today after all. X17 reports that she’s staying in rehab for another 2-3 months. Yeah!
