Lindsay Lohan is getting rid of the "bad influences" in her life.
"She is realising there are people in her life who are bad influences, who think it's funny when she wants to fill water bottles with alcohol and go out, or stay out all night at nightclubs in New York and look sloppy in photos. These aren't her real friends."
The 'Liz & Dick' star has been romantically linked with The Wanted hunk Max George and believes this can help bolster public opinion in favour of her, comparing it with Taylor Swift's new relationship with another British boy band star, Harry Styles - though her friends think she still has some way to go.
The source added: "She knows how everyone looks up to Taylor, and what a good image she has. But it's totally different when you're acting like a groupie."
The troubled actress is also said to be consulting a spiritual adviser for help, after previously working with the guru when she was dating Samantha Ronson.
A source said: "There was a woman who she was introduced to a few years ago who worked with the Ronson family she met when she was with Samantha. She worked with a lot of big celebrities."
