Is Lindsay Lohan still sober?
Lindsay’s reality show on Oprah’s OWN network was fraught with trouble from the beginning. In the early episodes a newly sober Lindsay stresses out about not getting in a NYC apartment paid for by the reality show production crew. She then upsets the director, and eventually Oprah, by flaking on the production schedule and not being available to shoot. After a talking to by Oprah, the show continues on shaky ground. A big question about this whole operation is whether or not it was a good idea for Lindsay, who has admitted that she struggles with an addiction to alcohol, to launch into a reality show so soon into her sobriety.
On last week’s episode Lindsay’s sober coach Michael Cormier left for the west coast, saying that he did his job to set Lindsay up with the tools for sobriety. When asked if she was sober, he avoided the question. “You know, I don’t know whether or not,” Michael said. “The truth is that I’m not going to discuss whether or not Lindsay is still sober. That is between Lindsay and Lindsay. I have no hard evidence that she’s not.” Meanwhile, Lindsay insisted that she loved the nightlife and still went to clubs and bars, she was still sober, though she had come dangerously close to falling off the wagon.
Promos for tonight’s episode show Lindsay’s life coach A. J. Johnson confronts Lindsay with news that she had been drinking. It appears that Lindsay admits this, saying “Why am I holding this in? Yeah, f**k it, I screwed up.”
