Back during Lindsay Lohan‘s messy days, we posted a lot about her, but we always had the exit plan prepared for her: If she sobered up and matured, we would gladly never say a cross word about her. And you know what? Since she got out of rehab, she’s been absolutely great about staying on the straight and narrow, and we’ve since shut up because we’re nothing if not true to our word. Well, now LiLo wants to open a rehab. Good for her and all, but … a little soon, ya think? Via RadarOnline …
“Lindsay really wants to help other people and she’s talked to some of her wealthy friends who are sober about the prospect of opening up a rehab center,” the insider revealed. “She loves the idea and really believes that if her name is attached to it, it will help draw attention to sobriety.” The 27-year-old — who was released from a 90-day court-ordered rehab stint three months ago – wants the facility to be based in New York City. “Lindsay is telling friends that she knows what works and doesn’t work when it comes to treatment,” the source added.
Not that I don’t think she’s going into this with good intentions, but … well, it’s all just a little soon, isn’t it? I mean, bless her freckled heart, she turned her life around and I think she could probably give some great advice to others when she puts some distance between her new self and her old self, but maybe she’s still a bit too fresh to be dishing out sobriety advice. Maybe a couple years down the line when she has herself firmly back where she wants to be? Sure thing. But if you can’t even date when you’re in early recovery, maybe opening up a rehab might be a mouthful you can’t really swallow.
