Will Lindsay Lohan join ‘Celebrity Big Brother’?

Lindsay Lohan and Tara Reid

Since she’s not really doing anything right now anyway, now’s the perfect time for Lindsay Lohan to move onto the next stage of her career: slumming it as a has-been on reality television! So now she’s in talks to appear on the next season of the UK’s Celebrity Big Brother, following in the footsteps of fellow drunken, blonde, has-been Tara Reid. I know: shoot for the stars! But there’s just one teensy little hang-up: Lindsay is still on probation, and leaving the country could result in her going to jail. Us Weekly reports:

According to the Daily Mail, the troubled star is in talks to join the UK show Celebrity Big Brother and producers have flown to L.A. to “lure her over the Atlantic.” Lohan would follow in the footsteps of actress Tara Reid, who was a housemate in 2011. “Lindsay would be an absolutely amazing signing for us,” a source tells the Sunday Mirror. “She’s a fiery character too, so there are sure to be a some major clashes with other celebrities if we get her in the house.” But whether Lohan agrees or not, there’s one major holdup: The star has her plate quite full fulfilling the terms of her new probation and is not allowed to leave the country. (Celebrity Big Brother has a scheduled January 2012 shoot date.) “We hope that the courts will make a special allowance in this case. There aren’t many more controlled environments than the Big Brother house,” an insider tells the Daily Mail.

AHAHAHAHAHA! No they won’t. There’s no way in hell they’d let Lindsay so much as step one foot outside of their jurisdiction at this point. Although that probably won’t stop Lindsay from appearing on the show because you have to remember here: first, Lindsay is a total dumb-dumb, and breaking the law to appear on a television show for money is right up her alley. And second, she’ll never go to jail because she apparently has naked pictures of every judge, sheriff and district attorney in Los Angeles.
