Source: 'Dancing With the Stars' Wants Lindsay Lohan

By Tracey Harrington McCoy Posted Nov 30th 2010 07:30PM

Even though her 'Inferno' director expressed huge relief that he'd replaced her with another actress, Lindsay Lohan's career is far from over. A source tells RadarOnline.com that reality TV sensation 'Dancing With the Stars' is interested in adding Lohan to the cast next season.

"'Dancing with the Stars' producers have had Lindsay on their wish list of castmates for a very long time," a source with knowledge of the situation told RadarOnline.com Tuesday. And though they've been wary of Lohan's history before, they are taking notice of her recent and productive stay at Betty Ford treatment center.

"The producers were concerned about her erratic behavior, but they are taking another look at asking her to come on for the next season because she is doing so well at her sober living facility," the source said. "The producers are aware that she would be available because she isn't going to be filming 'Inferno.'"

The source also tells RadarOnline.com that Lohan's next career choice will be heavily tied to what's best for her sobriety. "Lindsay won't be making any decisions about what she chooses for her next project without consulting first with her treatment team. This wasn't mandated by the court, her advisors or medical team, but Lindsay has taken that step herself, which is a very, very positive sign," the source added.

And in addition to all the positive exposure associated with the show, it seems there's another reason 'Dancing With the Stars' might be the best choice for the 'Mean Girls' actress--the money. "It pays very well. Lindsay has very limited income coming in and this could help get her out of the red," the source said.

A rep for the show said they do not comment casting.

Why are they actively trying to drive viewers away? That makes no sense at all.

Yeah, you know what other show has Lindsay Lohan on their wishlist for castmates...Celebrity Rehab...but they only want possible success stories!

WHY?

RATINGS!

Ratings is a very true conclusion. All you have to do is take a look at all the blogging and news reports about Bristol Palin making it all the way to the finals last season and the "conspiracy" that surrounded it. Lindsey should bring much the same

While I take note of Lindsays rehab stint. It's nothing more than that until over time she's able to prove a change in her attitude. I don't believe in giving arrogant imbiciles a quick early break. She'd only abuse it!

Schmice - It takes one to know one and you my friend are an anal imbecile.

Seriously....didn't they have enough DRAMA last season with Bristol...OMG. Guess they want to LOSE viewers...hhmmm, there's a new concept...

By deejay

Good Grief!! They are really trying to kill off this show, aren't they?

By Amy

Boy they are scraping the bottom of the barrel if she is on their "star" list. It was bad enough with Kate Gosselin-now this loser. Why don't they get Octomom while they are at it. Lets see Tiger Woods mistress is probably available now-that Rachel whatever her name is-she is through with Dr Drew rehab-she was on tv today talking about her love addiction. They'll probably pair her with Maksim and they could have a grand ole time-oh wait-she only likes the married ones.

If the producers think it will boost their ratings, they will do it. I know that a lot of Lindsey haters would look forward to bashing her, but really, get over it. She's messed up her life and she knows it. Why do any of you want to keep crucifying her again and again and again. I'm sure that you are all so pure that you don't need any kind of forgiveness. Why do you want to see her break? To make you feel better and superior? Enough already.

And of course you were most likely bashing bristol last week....

By Judy Lueer

Yah, put her with Maksim. What a pair!!!

My brother is in love with Lindsay,
which doesn't say much, he's a Nazi skinhead.

That would be the worse thing to happen to dancing with the stars. I would definitely quit watching. I just can't stand Lindsey Lohan. Her mom is a poor excuse for being a parent. She just rode her coat tales for the money. If they aren't careful Ali Lohan will be the same way

By themeeker

I know what you mean melissa. We had to endure Bristol's ridiculous mother, but to have to endure Dina is asking too much. She is the WORST.
