Lindsay Lohan

Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan, who left rehab last week - following a 2 month stint to try and quash her addiction to alcohol and drugs has vowed that she'll avoid Hollywood in a bid to avoid temptation.

The 'Mean Girls' actress said:  "I'm staying in Utah until it's time to shoot 'Dare to Love Me', and then I plan on returning to Utah so I can stay focused and avoid other distractions.

"If I wasn't worried about relapsing, I'd be living in denial. Temptation is always there, but now I'll avoid it the right way.

"I don't blame anybody but from now on I plan to surround myself with good people who have their hearts and their minds in the right places.

"While I've been in Utah I have only spoken to my family."

However, Lindsay who begins filming her new film 'Dare to love me' later this month has insisted that she has no plans to avoid the film industry in Hollywood, just the party scene. - she told America's OK! Magazine (when asked if she was quitting acting):  "Absolutely not - never! I'm here to stay. My talent is a gift, and I'm going to use it in the right way."

The actress also spoke about her July arrest for DUI: I hit rock bottom. Everything in my life came to a point where I had to make a decision, the arrest that night helped me come to a point where I had to make one.

"My experience in Utah has been sobering and humbling. It made me look at myself, and all of the people, places and things in my life in a different way. I was in there for substance abuse, after all."

And she also spoke about the bitter feud between herself, and father Michael Lohan:  "I wish it would stop. It hurts when two people you love argue with one another. I don't think any child wants to see their parents argue or see their family fall apart.

"Unfortunately, it happens, and when it does, they should do it with as little effect on their children as possible."
