Whitney Houston has checked herself in to an out-patient rehabilitation program … but it’s not for drugs or alcohol … TMZ has learned.

A source directly connected with Whitney tells us … Houston enrolled in the program around 10 days ago. The program allows Houston to go out in public … as long as she has a monitor.

Just last weekend, Houston was enjoying herself at a Prince concert in L.A. … with her daughter right by her side.

Our source is not saying why Houston is seeking treatment … but insists it’s not drug or alcohol related.

We’re told, “She’s cleansing herself to get ready for a new movie.”

Even though a source has stated that Ms. Houston is not in rehab because of substance abuse it sounds funny that a person would check themselves into a rehabilitation facility just because they were getting ready for a movie role.


UPDATE: A rep of Whitney Houston has confirmed to People.com that Houston is indeed in rehab seeking alcohol & drug treatment.
