Responding to report that she was banned from New York Fashion Week, the 'I Know Who Killed Me' actress tweets 'i'd rather be raising money for those that need it in Haiti'.

Lindsay Lohan has slammed report suggesting she was not invited to Jill Stuart's Fashion Week in New York City. Through her Twitter account, the "Machete" actress set the record straight by stating that she would rather be in London for a Haiti relief benefit than in the Big Apple for the fashion event.

The 23-year-old actress tweeted on Tuesday, February 16, "in response to the wrong Daily News, i'd rather be raising money for those that need it in Haiti @altitude360 then be at fashion week." Several hours later, the "I Know Who Killed Me" actress re-tweeted with a link to Gossip Cop that has confirmed the banned report was indeed false.

In its report, Gossip Cop pointed out that even Jill Stuart herself denied the story to New York Daily News, which first brought up the news. The site went on adding that Lohan's absence at the event also hasn't anything to do with her ex-girlfriend, Samantha Ronson, and Sam's twin sis, designer Charlotte, as suggested by Daily News.

On Monday, February 15, New York Daily News reported that Lohan was not invited to Jill Stuart's Fashion Week show because Stuart and her team considered the "Georgia Rule" actress "Brand Damager". Although Daily News included a fraction of information that Stuart denied the ban, the publication further suggested that a source came forward with another revelation stating that the reason of the "Just My Luck" actress' absence was a bit personal.

According to the source, Lindsay Lohan's ex-girlfriend Samantha Ronson along with her twin sister Charlotte Ronson practically ran the Fashion Week. "Fashion Week kind of belongs to the Ronsons," the source told the publication, adding, "and Charlotte had Lindsay banned from both her show and after-party, just like she did this past fall."
