Michael Lohan's Reality Show: "No Way"
The hook was too good to resist: The battling Lohans were at it again. Days after Dina Lohan made the rounds hyping her reality-TV project, Michael Lohan's own pitch began circulating online.
Were, as the Web gossips claimed, Lindsay's deeply divided and ever bickering parents really trying to take their estangement to prime time in dueling projects?
"No way," Michael Lohan exclusively told E! Online. "I am definitely not looking for my own reality show. That's Dina's thing, and I've got my own thing."
As for the video that's been floating around YouTube—the so-called Michael Lohan Reality Project featuring 10 minutes of footage showing the Lohan patriarch alternately in prayer, going to divorce court, talking about Lindsay's meltdowns and working with a lady from an organization called Hookers for Jesus—Michael swears he wasn't behind it.
"That tape was pirated from me and then spliced together with a title that made it look like some show I was putting together," he said.
"Some of it's footage for my ministry's promotional campaign, and some of it is just other stuff thrown in, like me going to court," he continues.
"But most of that footage was actually for a promotional video I was doing for Teen Challenge."
The elder Lohan has been working for the Christian ministry Teen Challenge, working as a counselor with adolescents since last March, when he was released from prison on assault and DUI charges. A recovering alcoholic and addict, Lohan attributes his sobriety to rediscovering his faith while behind bars.
Lohan says he has his suspicions on who may have helped themselves to the tapes, "but I can't say for sure right now," he added. "It's something I'm certainly looking into, and I'll see what recourse I can take after that. You can count on that."
The video, which first gained notice when linked to from Perez Hilton's blog, so disturbed Lohan he immediately left messages for daughter Lindsay, letting her know there is no truth to his supposed reality-show dreams.
"I told her no way, that's not where my life is right now," he said. "My life's work is with Teen Challenge and doing things that bring me closer to my family."
He did, however, admit to trying to shop a reality show back in 2004.
"It was called The Lowdown and was supposed to be a kind of anti-tabloid talk show," he said. "That was back when I was getting beat up on a lot in the press and by Dina's people, and I didn't feel like I had a way to present my side.
"But that's over. I've let all of that go. I have bigger things to focus on now."
