Mama Lohan Has Own Reality Show

Dina Lohan, mother and manager of actress Lindsay Lohan, sure likes the spotlight. Lucky for her she’s still got kids whose careers to promote, this time around on her own reality TV show.

Dina Lohan and her youngest daughter, 14-year-old Ali Lohan, will star in “Living Lohan,” a reality television series that will debut on E! this summer. The show will revolve around the mother-daughter, manager-budding actress/singer duo as Ali tries to embark on a career of her own, the cable network has announced.

Ali has already confessed that seeing her sister rise to fame (and notoriety?) made her hungry for success as well. Dina is being praised by the show’s producers as “an incredibly hard-working, passionate mom” that viewers will find “both relatable and highly entertaining.”

Lisa Berger, Executive VP of Series Development at E!, who made the above comments, also said: “This is a family that knows how to roll with the punches and come out on top.”

The series has already begun shooting; while it mainly shows the family at their Long Island home, it will also chronicle Ali’s trip to Las Vegas’ Palms Casino recording studio, where she intends to start work on a possible solo album for Interscope Records, E! Online reports.

A new round of filming begins on March 17 in New York, People.com reports, followed by another two-week period in Las Vegas where Ali will do more studio work.

The other Lohan siblings, brothers Cody and Michael, will also appear in the show; 11-year-old Cody is passionate about sports rather than entertainment while 20-year-old Michael is preparing to go to college.

Ali told the April issue of Teen Vogue that celebrity cannot come soon enough for her and that she is excited about the upcoming show.” I want it so bad. So bad you don't even know. And now, it's actually happening,” she confessed.

“I grew up watching Lindsay, and it made me want to do what she does,” Ali told the mag. “Just the whole vibe. Being there, being on camera, or onstage, with everybody listening to you… it's so cool when people look up to you.

“I've already been asked for my autograph, and it's just a really good feeling to have,” the 14-year-old said.

Ali was reportedly present when Lindsay Lohan, 21, made the now famous Marilyn Monroe photo shoot recreation. New York magazine revealed last month Lindsay’s remake of The Last Sitting, Monroe’s last photo shoot before her untimely death in 1962, with veteran photographer Bert Stern.

The ample reaction to the nude portraits was mixed, with many calling it distasteful. Dina Lohan replied at the time that she looked at the photos as “art;” she told People magazine that her oldest daughter had been “in character” and argued that she would not have allowed Ali on the set had it not been serious business.

Yup, Mama Lohan has everything under control.
