As RadarOnline was first to report, producers for the hit reality television show recently tried to land Lindsay for the show.
While Dina confirmed Lindsay gave the offer serious consideration, the Mean Girls star, 24, has decided to keep her focus on her drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

"Lindsay is a great dancer, but she's taking a break right now. She has been through a lot," Dina told RadarOnline.com.
"Our family loves the show because I'm a dancer, and I taught dance when Lindsay was growing up.

"I dragged her from one dance studio to another, and she sat in front of the mirrors and watched, while I taught."
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elden Fox ordered the recovering actress to remain in treatment at Betty Ford until January 3 after a series of probation violations, including a positive test for cocaine.

The time at Betty Ford has made an impression on Dina, who praised her daughter's efforts.
"She just needs to come out (from Betty Ford) healthy and happy and will," Dina told RadarOnline.com.

Lindsay does not have the work ethic for DWTS, who is her mom trying to fool? Only show for her is Celebrity Rehab.

Am I the only one who finds it HILARIOUS that Di-nutz gets on here repeatedly and bleats on and on about her saintly daughter (oops, I forgot, she's really just "Susan09) and actually thinks that anyone BUYS it? Tee hee!

DId I or did I not reference a gossip site that told of Dina trying to get on a reality show but Michael suggesting that Lindsay do it instead? Susan09 insisted it wasn't DwtS but here we have her STILL trying to get her own fat asz on the show.

So, Dina, Have you notice the public reaction to Lindsay lately? Read the comments, on these gossip sites, do you? Seems like there are 4 people left rooting for Lindsay anymore. I bet you are 3 of them. It's very sad. I know.

I think it's Dina pathetic attempt to try to get people to WANT LL. Seems it is quite the fishing attempt (ALA Tom Cruise Twitter) for someone (at DWTS) to call Dina. And she is actually sitting and waiting for that call right now. Crazzzzy.

I sure hope LiLo is getting her cut of all these "exclusive" Dina RO interviews. If not, DiLo needs to keep her pie hole shut (or is she performing her delusional "managerial" duties?) DiLo has some nerve talking about MiLo being a publicity hound.

ONLY HEAR DINA SAYING LINDSAY SAYS NO, BUT WAS LL ACTUALLY INVITED TO BE ON THE SHOW. ANYONE KNOW A SITE THAT SHOWS LINDSAY WAS TRULY MADE AN OFFER?
I find this totally absurd that DWTS would ask this slutty junkie to be on.

Lindz is not insurable, not for movies or TV or anything else. DWTS would never take a chance on this deadbeat.

How could they? She's flaked out on tons of film gigs. And is stuck in rehab. And there is no proof that she won't walk out on a Monday and be doing dope again by Tuesday. She's a bad risk at this point until she proves otherwise.
