Following this week’s trend of déjà vu - George Clooney’s return to ER, John and Jen’s millionth split, Michael Jackson’s comeback concerts - it’s not surprising that Lindsay Lohan has helped herself to a slice of the repeat-pie.

The young starlet appears to be boozing it up again, as stated by a handy witness for Hollyscoop.com. On March 6th LiLo was supposedly caught drinking a Vodka Soda with just a hint of cranberry at Bardot bar and lounge in LA. And the following day she visited Passions Nightclub in Florida, where she clung to a plastic party cup and allegedly spent “a lot of the evening texting from her phone, smoking and drinking,” according to a Perez Hilton source.

While one could have written these incidents off as common gossip, this morning’s reports of a warrant being out for Lindsay’s arrest - stemming from her 2007 DUI extravaganza - makes it difficult to remain optimistic.

Why Lohan, who’s still on probation, is a wanted woman has not yet been disclosed, but the Beverly Hills Police Department did release the following statement:

“In response to media inquiries, [the] Beverly Hills Police Department is confirming a warrant was in fact issued for the arrest of Lindsay Lohan. The $50,000 warrant issued by the Beverly Hills Superior Court stems from a May 2007 arrest of Miss Lohan for DUI and hit-and-run. The circumstances leading to the issuance of the warrant by the court are not readily available at this time. It is our hope that Miss Lohan will surrender herself so that this matter will be resolved in a timely manner.”

Lindsay attempted to silence the “horrendous lie” earlier today by telling Perez Hilton that the warrant is entirely fabricated, but seriously, WHY would the cops fib about such a thing?

It’s spreading like wildfire that the actress somehow violated the terms of her parole, which would make perfect sense seeing as she spent all last weekend hitting the clubs.

However this shakes out, it’s not lookin’ good!
