Gossip: Lindsay Lohan
Lohan tested positive for cocaine and amphetamines at a pair of court-mandated drug tests.
Less than one month after being granted an early release from rehab, Lindsay Lohan has failed a pair of court-mandated drug tests, said Radaronline.com. The actress, 24, tested positive for cocaine and amphetamines last week, and could face another 30 days in jail for violating her probation. In a series of Twitter posts, a penitent Lohan admitted that she failed the test. “Substance abuse is a disease, which unfortunately doesn’t go away overnight,” wrote Lohan. Sources tell the website that Lohan’s legal costs and career meltdown have left her virtually bankrupt.
