TMZ Confirms, Lohan Slips on Sobriety

Oh no ... this is not good. Cameras caught Lindsay Lohan taking a swig out of a bottle of what we've confirmed is champagne on New Year's Eve in Italy.


Blair Berk, Lindsay's lawyer, told TMZ, "The good news was that Lindsay stopped herself that night, called her sponsor, and got herself immediately back on track. There is no magic cure here. The most unfortunate part of this is that Lindsay has to share her 'one day at a time' with the entire world."

16. This is the best picture they took, nothing with her flashing or anything with he skirt falling off or nothing like that?

17. Ah, it was NYE. Give her a break. If that's all she did was take a couple of swigs, good for her. The kids were drinking it too! Let her be. Hopefully, this is just a social drink and not the beginning of a downward spiral...

18. this is another brittney spears story, young beautiful, not talent, messed up and confused. Lets just forget this girl, she had her shot at fame and blew it. who is the next young bimbo that hollywood and the paparazzi seek?

19. She's putting herself where the temptation to drink's staring her (literally) in the face. She still can't get out of that environment!

20. If you will look closer she is just practicing her sucking routine......probably something she was going to do later on that night

21. One thing i can never understand is how much we scrutinize these young stars.. when they are doing things no different than we did when we where that age. They are just getting caught.

No, most of us weren't in rehab 3 times by the time we were 21.

22. Being in recovery isn't just about not drinking. It's a state of mind, body, and spirituality. In your first year, you should abstain from dating to focus on yourself and the "new you" but it doesn't always happen. What's the difference between drinking sparkling wine out of a wine bottle and the real thing? I feel sad for her. There are so many other options for her. She needs to be accountable and serious, and that involves not doing what she's doing in the video, whatever it is

Oh, and there's no such thing as "near beer"; no beer is without alcohol. Non alcoholic drinks are juices, water, and soda.

23. Gee Chris, #14, I don't remember being an alcoholic drug addict fresh out of rehab when I was that age. Maybe you were...since you claim she's not doing anything different than you had done at that age. Oh, but she got caught...that's right. By the police, after crashing a car, endangering the lives of others, and generally destroying her career. No problem! I'm sure AA allows a little slip now and then...a slug of this, slug of that. Who's to deny someone their New Year's Eve fun?? As long as everyone has fun. That's what life is all about. Fun without responsibility.

24. Looks like a boring party, you'd think she'd get invited to something a little more fun, those kids look like dorks.

25. Could be fake champagne. It's bottled similarly to the real thing. Anyway, don't most folks have a salutory drink or two at New Year's Eve? I didn't read anywhere that she was an alcoholic, even if this is real booze. I thought excess everything was her problem. Moderation usually comes with maturity, or marriage and children, and the fact that your body just can't take doing it anymore while trying to balance making a living. Hangovers are brutal past a certain age, and can last for a week sometimes whether you have two or six.

26. HEY TMZ, REALLY TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT THIS PRIVILEGED GIRLS WHO HAVE THE WORLD BY THE BUTT BUT
CONTINUE TO ABUSE THEIR BODIES AND JUST ALWAYS NEED TO BE IN THE LIMELIGHT, REALLY GET TIRED OF
HEARING ABOUT THE SPOILED BRATS, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THEY REALLY HAD TO WORK FOR A LIVING LIKE THE REST OF THE WORLD, BET YOU WOULD NOT HEAR ABOUT THEM AT ALL. QUIT GIVING US ALL THEIR GARBAGE AND POSSIBLY WRITE ABOUT THEM WHEN THEY DO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE. IT SEEMS YOU CAN PICK UP ALL THE GARBAGE BUT NEVER LET US KNOW THE GOOD STUFF SOME STARS DO FOR SOCIETY.

30. Have been there..the great thing is that you called your sponsor..unfortunately I did not. I am still fighting with myself 10 years later..All it took was one glass of wine after 5 years of being sober....love to you
