The Lohan family get their own reality show

The Lohan’s have their own reality show on E! called “Living Lohan” which documents the daily lives of the Lohan family, most of the focus being on Lindsay’s mom and manager, Dina and her little sister, Ali.

“Viewers will go inside the Lohan’s Long Island home for the first time to follow Dina as she works double duty as mom and manager to help Ali try to follow in her big sister [Lindsay’s] famous footsteps,” a press release for the show says.Cameras will also follow the duo to Vegas as Ali records an album.

“Dina is determined to help each of her four kids fulfill their dreams and refuses to live in fear of what others may think, despite being under the paparazzi microscope,” the press release adds.

Ali has made it clear that she craves fame.

“I want it so bad. So bad you don’t even know. And now, it’s actually happening,” she told Teen Vogue this month. “I’ve already been asked for my autograph, and it’s just a really good feeling to have.”

When Dina was asked recently why she is doing this reality show she said:

“Initially if you’d asked me two years ago, would we do something like this, it would definitely be a no. I never even thought reality [TV] would be in existence now. But there are so many rumors about us and I feel that we’re in the power seat right now so that I’m able as a mom to say - this is our life, check us out and move on so we can be normal.”

“We live a normal existence in suburbia,” she says. “I do the food shopping, the laundry. There is so much sensationalism out there and people are so obsessed with celebrity. This doesn’t consume us. It really doesn’t and by showing our life, we’ll show that I don’t get up and crack the whip and say, ‘Wake up Ali and go be a star.’”

Ali had some comments about why this reality show is a good idea.

“She’s our manager and like any other mother in the world she’s trying to help her kids fulfill their dreams,” she said. “I just hate it when people twist that and make her into some kind of crazy backstage mom. She’s a mom like anybody else and I want people to know that she’s the greatest mom in the world.”

Living Lohan premirers on Monday, May 26 @ 10:30pm. In the premiere episode, Dina brings young music producer and family friend, Jeremy Greene, to Long Island to work with Ali.
