Mother Pimps Her Kid Again

As a Hollywood mom, DINA LOHAN could sit back and watch the frenzy going on around her daughter, but instead, she's choosing to fight back as she gives ET and entertainment correspondent GINA GLICKMAN full access to her trip from New York to Los Angeles to reunite with LINDSAY in rehab.

"I'm so proud of her for making that step, under a microscope -- bettering herself and still wanting to continue to work," Dina says of Lindsay's decision to enter rehab. "I wanted her to not work, but she said, 'Mommy, this is what I do.' And this is what she does every day -- this is her life."

Something else Dina realizes is a part of Lindsay's life is the glaring and intrusive paparazzi, and she feels it's time for a dramatic change.

"Well, it's obvious they fabricate [stories], they make it up," she says of the tabloids. "It's not even true and that's the hurtful part. Someone has to stop the madness and the lies."

And the paparazzi's (sometimes dangerous) invasiveness is one of the main reasons she's speaking out.

"I'm doing this now because when she finishes up the program, they're just going to be following her to see if she messes up," she says. "It's just a horrible thing, and someone's going to get seriously hurt."

Dina says she'll do what it takes to take care of her daughter, including surrounding Lindsay with the friends she's had forever because there are some "sketchy" people in her life. "I have nothing to lose here, this is my child," she says. "Any mother out there listening would fight for their child till death."
