    The young actress ends a whirl of activity by entering rehab. Here's a glance at her year.

(CBS)  Lindsay Lohan is out of rehab, her rep confirmed to The ShowBuzz Sunday.

Leslie Sloane Zelnick said that Lohan is wearing an alcohol monitoring bracelet — her choice — which Zelnick said "just proves her determination to stay sober."

Zelnick also confirmed that Lohan went to Las Vegas this weekend, where she threw a surprise birthday party for her assistant at the nightclub Pure.

Photos: A Year Of Lohan
The "Mean Girls" actress, who turned 21 on July 2, checked into rehab at Promises in Malibu, Calif. six weeks ago, after she crashed her Mercedes Benz into a curb and was photographed slumped in the passenger seat of a friend's car during a wild Memorial Day weekend.

It was her second rehab stint this year. Lohan said in January she had checked into a rehabilitation center for substance abuse treatment.

While we might not like her "Celebrity Rehab," if it works for her, terrific. It's not like any of us didn't make mistakes when we were 21. I know I did, you? Her world is glamour and parties. I just don't see her lasting too long w/o temptation. But, I don't care if she drinks until she falls on her celebrity butt, that is the right of any 21 yr old, as long as she remembers to take a limo home.

If alcoholism was that easy to get over, there would be no need for rehab. Kudos to Lindsay for continuing her struggle, and wearing a "reminder notice" that will help others keep her commitment.

Wait a minute, wants to stay sober, but wears an alcohol monitoring bracelet?

I assume by this she means she will drink only enough to avoid tripping the monitor?

Or drink so that the monitor stays under a certain number?

why not hust not drink, then you don't need a monitor...

So, the alcohol monitoring bracelet was her idea, right? She can ignore it, too, just as easily as she ignored the laws about driving while intoxicated, can't she? Anyone who would leave rehab, go home to change clothes and then head straight to Las Vegas to a party at a bar doesn't sound very "rehabbed" to me. Ooooohhh, that's right - she's of legal age now to drink, so she doesn't have to worry about the alcohol control agents breathing down her neck - if she can just get a ride home from the party, she can drink all she wants...

Will someone just give her a bottle of Schapps or whatever liquid that has 100 proof or more. Challenge her to downing 10 or more shots in 10 minutes or less.

She passes out (for the last time)...


... a few moments of sadness from her loyal fans..


...and then the world moves on!

THE PRIORITIES IN THE U.S. HAVE BECOME FVCKED UP BEYOND ALL RECOGNITION! (FUBAR)

Everyone who purchases a US Weekly, People, Enquirer, Weekly World, etc. etc., are supporting the degradation of our nation!

There is a time when a "release" from everyday life becomes a ritual where the lives of celebrities becomes more important and more discussed than the disintegration of our Constitution and our 'government by the people, for the people'.

Our main-stream news media only seems to perpetuate this unfortunate fascination with the self absorbed in Hollywood and elsewhere.

Sadly, I see the U.S. has become the Roman Empire of the 21st century.

I wish her luck in staying sober, but I believe that her script for an upcoming, long-running role will be,"Do you want fries with that?"

As long as she continues to believe that the rules of life, especially those imposed on us by our own bodies, do not apply to her...she's lost.

Too bad.

Lindsay Lohan, a Paris Hilton wannabe ...

It's a sad, sad world ...

Way to go Lindsay! You got the drinking down to an art form!

Now it's time to fire up the Ford, floor it, and come what may!

That's livin' the life of an actor :-)
