Dina Lohan sat down with Us Weekly to talk about the accusations that Lindsay is facing. Since a tape surfaced of her daughter's alleged drug use in a bathroom stall, Linds' mom/best friend/manager says the Lohan girls are just trying to ignore all the talk. Here's an excerpt from the article: How is Lindsay holding up with the tape circulating? “We’re not reading anything about it. You can’t let it bother you. We work so hard, then some girl just tried to make money off her [for that tape]. Lindsay doesn’t even know who her friends are." Do you think Lindsay is at the clubs too much? “This [premieres and parties] is the fun part of the business. She’ll be 21 in a few months. Regardless, of course, as a parents, you set boundaries and scold them. But there are these dark stories – she is so misunderstood. All she wants to do is act and have a somewhat normal life. When you’re 20, it’s normal to want to go to The Ivy, to go to the hot stores. She can’t live in a bubble.” Do you ever worry that she’s pushing herself too hard? “When she doesn’t work, she’s so bored. I’ve told her, ‘Please slow down. Stop!’ She’s growing up and learning to do that. ... I’m her mother first: Everything could go away, and I couldn’t care less."
