Lindsay Lohan checked into Promises Treatment Center in Malibu, California, on Monday afternoon, Usmagazine.com has learned.

A rep for Lohan tells Us: "Lindsay admitted herself to an intensive medical rehabilitation facility on Memorial Day. Because this is a medical matter, it is our hope that the press will appreciate the seriousness of the situation and respect the privacy of Lindsay as well as the other patients receiving treatment at the facility. There will be no other official comments regarding this issue."

The actress’ lawyer, Blair Berk, was seen driving Lohan (who was sporting a dark fedora), in a Mercedes at around 4:30 p.m. yesterday to the same facility that Britney Spears checked out of in March.

Sources tell TMZ this is "a serious medical treatment program," instead of the laissez-faire treatment she enjoyed during her stint at the Wonderland Center last January.

Her entry into rehab, her second stint in the last five months, comes after a whirlwind weekend of drinking, drug use and possible jail time.

Lohan’s wild Memorial Day holiday weekend started on Friday, May 25. At 11 p.m., she was chauffeured by her bodyguard, Jazz, to Hollywood hot spot, Les Deux, where she was spotted swigging vodka and dancing with sometimes pal, Paris Hilton, 26.

Three hours later, Lohan, her deejay pal Samantha Ronson, and a male friend headed out into the night, with brief stops at a party in Hollywood Hills and the Mondrian Hotel’s Skybar, where, says a club source, “Lindsay was a wreck.”

The three then headed towards Lohan’s West Hollywood home where the party took a dark turn. According to an eyewitness, Lohan and Ronson got into a heated argument.

“They were screaming at each other,” says the onlooker, who saw Lohan jump out of the SUV and yell, “You f—king lesbian bitch!” then run into her house. She emerged moments later, driving her Mercedes, and ordered Ronson into her car.

Along with the male friend, they took off and crashed a few blocks away. “All of a sudden, her car was between two palm trees,” says a witness, who saw Lohan walking around after the accident.

“She wasn’t hurt. She wasn’t bloody.” Still, 10 minutes after the accident, the actress called her bodyguard to pick them up and take them to the hospital, leaving the scene of the accident before the police arrived.

After an eye witnesses called 911, police caught up with the 20-year-old actress at the hospital and arrested her. As for the narcotics, cops say they found “a usable amount” of a drug tentatively identified as cocaine for which Lohan has yet to be charged.

On Sunday, the Georgia Rule star was at it again, dancing with Ronson at Hollywood hangout Teddy’s until 4 a.m.

According to the New York Post, when Lohan left the club, she stumbled through the back door and dropped her sunglasses and cigarettes. She bent to pick them up and collapsed, a witness said. A bouncer scooped her off the floor by her waist, and placed her in the passenger seat of the car, which had three plastic medallions from rehab treatment, each indicating 30 days of sobriety, hanging from the rearview mirror.

"She couldn't stand up anymore," said one witness. "She couldn't even move when she got in the car.”

Soon after, Ronson stopped at a gas station on Beverly Boulevard and tried to rouse her friend and alert her to the paparazzi snapping her pictures. But Lohan, whose eyes were closed and mouth hanging open, was unresponsive.

“Samantha was poking her,” says the onlooker. “She didn't respond. She was totally passed out."

The two then headed to an unidentified residence where they both spent the night. Lohan entered the treatment facility the following morning.

Says a pal, “She’s a troubled girl. Maybe this will be her wake-up call, but at this point, we don’t know.”

I think that her behavior is plain disgusting. Who allows her to drink? she's not even old enough to drink yet? And this her second stint in rehab. you gotta be freakin kidding me!!! Nice parentin Ms. Lohan. You're doing a bang up job. No one should feel sorry for this girl because she has done nuthin to correct this problem.

if she had any real dignity she'd find a real habit and take the likes of kurt cobain. at least he walked out with a shred of dignity. look at anne n. smith. do you really think that name will be mentioned again after her mom stops stirring the pot? these people are mirages...nobodys...like tiffany or debbie gibson. they'll pose for playboy 5 years before menopause to bang a check and then god willing get killed by a speeding shopping cart in some random parking lot. let it go.

Hey mom and dad....Look at me! Don't I make you proud. I bet Britney Spears is sad that her pics are no longer top headlines.

1:28 PM GimmeABeat Says:

That pic STILL cracks me up!!!

You're probably right, Belinda. Her friend probably did let the paps go photo-crazy on purpose. Anything for a good laugh. I wonder how many times she tried to wake her up without cracking a laugh.... LMAO!!!

**Mistake on "If you can see the humor in this, you really live in a bubble." I meant to write "If you CAN'T see the humor in this..." Sorry folks! :o)

4:21 PM Belinda Says:

YUP!! I too find this photo to be the perfect kodak moment...Whats even funnier is that I get the notion that her "so called" friend intentionally pulled into the station for the Paparazzi to get a good shot. She could have easily continued to go home bound to try and wake the lush...HAHAHAHH! I love how she TRIES so hard to wake her up....

12:55 PM dora..the internet explorer Says:

Guys.... I'm f-ing crying here... literally!!! THAT photo is so f-ing priceless, it's ridiculous!! What a Kodak moment!!
She either looks dead, passed out or zonked-out sleep! And look at the driver! You can tell he's trying hard not to laugh! Freaking obvious!! She's so f-ing stupid. Yeah, I love to put that on my resume, Linds. LMAO!!!

If you can see the humor in this, you really live in a bubble.

LMMFAO!!! f-ing love it.... HA!!!

5:25 PM CallMeCrazy Says:

Correct me if I'm wrong but last time I checked, the LEGAL drinking age was 21. How is it that just because she is a "star" that she can legally drink? If it were you or I, we wouldn't even be allowed to enter a bar at the age of 20, let alone be allowed to drink it up and party all night. It is sad that my 8 year old daughter idolizes people like Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton. Very, very sad......

4:22 PM anon Says:

With dad just out of jail (I'm sure he has no visitation) and mom partying with Lindsay I would say no one is watching the younger kids.

3:57 PM Jessica Says:

P.S. Who the hell is watching over the two younger brothers and younger sister? Their dad is in and out of jail. Mother Dina is out partying like she's a f**king rockstar and sister Lindsay going crazy off of cocaine and alcohol. Hopefully these kids aren't headed down the same path, because once again, there isn't anyone monitoring them....just like lindsay!!!

=======================
I get you when you say she's 20 and people need to cut her some slack because her life is a little different because of course she's in the spotlight and we're not. I think that in HER particular siuation, she needs to have some sort of support system and guidance, like from her screwed up parents, but with that said, she is where she is in life. I will admit that I used to party and do drugs even before I was 20, but then again, I didn't have millions of dollars to splurge.....there was a limit. On top of that, my parents would keep a close eye on me (as much as any parent can with allowing some breathing room for teens), so there weren't as many opportunities to engage in that kind of activity.

With Lindsay, she has no rules or anyone to answer to. I can't even begin the imagine the pressure and tempations of living where she does and the lifestyle of HollyWeird!She is still young and immature so she can't make the right decisions for herself; however, if she doesn't take control now, she'll be doomed to be a junkie and like someone said earlier: A True Hollwood Story in the making. Her fame has forced her to grow up before her time, nevertheless, she made that choice and now has to figure it out somehow.

The sad thing is her mom is at the clubs with her most of the time. Her dad just got out of jail and has addictions himself. What support system does this girl have? I'm not saying she doesn't need to take responsibility but what a mess. They teach you in rehab to get rid of the toxic people in your life. If you get out and do the same things with the same people you drank and drugged with you will relapse.

2:15 PM ABJM Says:

No, she does NOT deserve any slack.
So what your saying is, give a crackhead, hobag some slack because she is only 20, that way when she is still doing it at 30 we can say, what? We gave her slack? I don't think so. Do the job now, and get this fixed before she ends up dead from OD.
AND BECAUSE PEOPLE GIVE "SLACK" IS WHY WE HAVE DRUGGIES ROAMING AROUND. POINT MADE.

I just wanted to say Lindsey Lohan looks like an idiot in this picture! I mean who is she kidding? She is a compulsive liar and has an excuse for every problem she has. Why not come clean and face your problems and admit to what you've done wrong? Shes just digging herself a deeper hole. She was so quick to make her decision and go back to rehab and thats obviously not working out for her. What she needs is good moral support and direction which I'm sure she can get if she surrounds herself with better people. She's not fooling anyone but herself thats for sure!

1:15 PM Anonymous Says:

I understand that she is 20 years old, but no, people should not cut her any slack. She is in the public eye and made a choice to be in that position. She owes it to her fans to be much more responsible in her actions. Right now she is a disappointment.

12:26 PM far away Says:

She's 20yrs. old. I think people should cut her some slack. Who out their was 20 and enjoyed drinking or going out? Shes having fun. She shouldn't be expected to act like she"s 40. Let her be a young adult. Just because she has money and is famous doesn't mean she's not alowed to live her life. But I do believe if she's going to make stupid choices about driving under the influence and doing illegal drugs than she should have to be punished just like anyone else and go to jail or loose her linsces and take dui classes and so on. Just because her or anyone else have money they should not be able to ignore the law or given special treatment. Especialy using rehab as an escape goat every other month.

12:18 PM ABJM Says:

She deserves what she is doing to herself. What is wrong with ppl like that? She makes me sick! She'll screw up again and look like a trampy lil slutbag in no time.

3:25 AM THE RIGHT TO ROCK Says:

We don't PROMISE, we GUARANTEE you that Lohan will screw herself again!

The retreat PROMISES is not a rehab center, it is just a spa for the rich and shameless to dry out before they go on more benders. We say send her, Paris and Britney either to a rehab out in the mountains with no electricity, no money, no drugs, no alcohol or be locked up with murderers, pimps, racists to learn about "hard times".

We GUARANDAMNTEED you Britney would relapse and SHE HAS. Her new statement was a BIG, FAT LIE because she got jealous of Lindsay and Paris getting the headlines.

We at THE RIGHT TO ROCK want these wastes of human flesh annihilated. Then we will dispose of that pickle puffer Justin Timberlake (he will say he is gay in a few years). Christina Aguilera is falling out of favor fast. Beyonce is overexposed and is getting her a** sued. Eminem thankfully retired. Jay Z needs to be beheaded!

YOU CAN'T STOP THE MUSIC B*STARDS, THIS IS THE RIGHT TO ROCK.

LONG LIVE ROCK AND ROLL!

what a waste of space...serious about rehab or tryin' to keep her arse out of jail....hmm, i think we all know the answer to that one!!!!!!!!

12:48 AM Sanela Says:

you DUMB b*tch!! I hope you realize one day how f*cking stupid you look and how retarded you are. I hope your mom is embarrassed of you, because I would be. She needs to f*cking stop making stupid excuses and step up and be a mother!!! Her excuses are catching up with her...and you!!!

And Maxim Magazine picked her as sexiest, I wonder if they will use this photo?

11:06 PM Anonymous Says:

10:59 @ annon- You make a good point however I disagree with her acting skills. It seems like she is more known for her party life than a serious actress. I don't take a serious attress when she does drugs & drinks underage. That is a loser

10:59 PM Anonymous Says:

We are no one to sit there and comment about a situation we have not be in..........it so easy to trash someone when they are down or going thru a bad time
I feel very deeply sorry for her and her family, i know how hard it is to deal with something like this
what we all can do is turn the negaive comments in to something positive.
We are talking about a very talented actress.....and i know she will get thru this..... she is just going thru all the same thing we all went thru, the only deference is that we do not live in the public eye.

10:39 PM UnSlick Says:

Promises is a luxury resort for spoiled rich drunks. Lindsay needs a good Midwestern Hazelden asswhippin'.

10:36 PM Anonymous in virginia beach Says:

I think the only reason she's going to rehab is to avoid going to jail. It will "look good" in court that she sought help. I think she's a spoiled rich young girl who is on a path of self destruction. Her a$$ needs to be put in check or she's gonna end up like anna nicole.

I agree that photo is priceless! LOL

p.s. I read on tmz.com that the papprazzi is camping out at the rehab center hiding in bushes ect... How ridiculous oh and even more ridiculous what looney tune would buy parts of the car that ripped off when she got in that accident it's on ebay.
