ACTRESS Lindsay Lohan confirmed on Friday that she had failed a court-ordered drug test a few weeks after being released from jail and going through a rehabilitation program.
Lohan, whose career has been derailed by drunken driving and drug possession charges and a reputation for erratic behavior, posted a series of messages on her Twitter page that confirmed media reports of recent drug use.
"Regrettably, I did in fact fail my most recent drug test," she wrote.
"... Substance abuse is a disease, which unfortunately doesn't go away overnight. I am working hard to overcome it. I am testing every single day and doing what I must do to prevent any mishaps in the future."
Celebrity news site TMZ.com said the "Mean Girls" actress had tested positive for cocaine last week. Under the terms of probation set in August, Lohan would be sent back to jail for 30 days if the reports prove correct.
Before her admission, Us Weekly magazine's website quoted Lohan on Friday as saying, "I'm fine. They're all nuts."
Lohan said on Twitter she was prepared to return to court and "face the consequences."
Lohan went to rehab three times in 2007, the year she was charged with drunken driving and cocaine possession.
