Lindsay Lohan rang in the New Year drinking champagne in Italy, her lawyer says, but is “back on track” in terms of sobriety.
A video obtained by The Associated Press shows Lohan, who spent much of 2007 in and out of rehab, taking a swig from a champagne bottle while in Capri, Italy.
“After being handed a champagne bottle while on a dance floor in Italy on New Year’s Eve and drinking from it, the good news is that Lindsay immediately stopped, called her sponsor, and got herself back on track,” her attorney, Blair Berk, said Thursday in a statement. “There is no magic cure here.”
“Unfortunately, Lindsay has to share her ‘one day at a time’ with the entire world,” Berk said.
Lohan, 21, was in Italy to receive an award at the Capri Hollywood International Film Festival.
Lohan pleaded guilty in August to misdemeanor drunken driving and cocaine charges in two arrests earlier in the year.
As a result, she served 84 minutes in jail in November. She also was sentenced to three years’ probation, required to complete an 18-month alcohol-education program and spend 30 days in a residential rehabilitation clinic.
Lohan’s screen credits include “Mean Girls” and “Freaky Friday.”
