Lindsay Lohan Banned From Mom New Show
05/23/2008
Lindsay Lohan's mother, Dina, has banned her movie-star daughter from making an appearance on her upcoming reality TV show, because she insists it would be bad for her career.
Dina, 45, will front the upcoming eight-episode series "Living Lohan," which will follow the manager-mom as she navigates the careers of her two younger children, Ali, 14, and Cody, 11.
But fans of her most famous daughter needn't tune in, hoping to catch a glimpse of the "Mean Girls" star: Lindsay won't be appearing.
Dina says, "I told Lindsay I don't want her on the show right now. Doing reality TV would almost be taking a step backward as far as her career."
Lindsay's father, Michael Lohan, has previously warned the Lindsay to stay away from her mother's reality show, fearing Dina would use the 21-year-old to further her own career in the entertainment industry.
But Lohan's mother insists her intentions are genuine: "I did this to defuse the rumors about my family. The media has just been so horrific to us over the past two years. I just want to get the message across that we are a normal family."
The new reality show will premiere this weekend.
