full size Lindsay Lohan at Premiere of Lifetime's Liz & Dick on November 20, 2012

Lindsay Lohan reportedly turned down a $550,000 offer to do Dancing With the Stars, but she supposedly wants $500,000 for an appearance in Dubai to promote an energy drink. 'Cause who wants to sweat and perform for two months when you can get basically the same amount for much less work? However, this deal may not happen for her either.

A source told Radar Online, “Lindsay wants $500k for an appearance in Dubai to promote Mr. Pink’s Ginseng Energy Drink, which executives at the company are balking at. Mr. Pink is prepared to offer the actress $200k, and would pay for all of LiLo’s travel expenses."

The insider added that the trip might not happen at all because of Lindsay's criminal record. "Dubai has very strict laws about convicted criminals entering the country, and Lindsay is still on probation for a necklace theft case. Lindsay is very upset about her financial woes and doesn’t trust her new lawyer, Mark Heller, to handle the Dubai travel problem."

Lindsay shouldn't be trusting Lindsay, since Lindsay is the common denominator of every problem she's had. Lately LiLo has had serious money problems and she really should just sign up for DWTS. She wants her mom, Dina, to dance instead, but if she really wants a six-figure paycheck, she should just swallow her pride and start dancing.
