Linsday Lohan has decided to drop out of the upcoming film “A Woman of No Importance” so she can focus on getting better. This comes after several weeks of harsh criticism claiming that Lohan hasn’t been taking her recovery seriously.

A publicist for Lohan, Leslie Sloane Zelnic, says that Lindsay is putting herself first and that she’s decided not to push herself. Lindsay will take a few more months of downtime to recover before she goes on a press tour to promote the upcoming “Georgia Rules”.

I certainly hope that downtime for Lindsay means that she’ll go back to rehab and stay there for a while.

Lohan was set to work with Annette Bening on “Importance”. Oddly enough this is the second time the pair have been set to work together and the second time that one of them has had to bow out. The other movie that was to star the pair was Freaky Friday, and in that case it was Bening that bowed out.

I wonder if Lindsay will still film “The Best Time of Our Lives” with Keira Knightley which is set to begin filming in London this spring.
