the buzz log

Moms are great. Except when they're not. Which, in Hollywood, is often. Take Dina Lohan, for example. Granted we don't know her personally (for all we know she's the most maternal figure since Mary), but Lindsay's mom has a reputation as being something of a nightmare. Still, that hasn't scared away the searchers—dirty Dina is up 89% this week.

The sudden interest is mostly due to Dina's proposed reality show, "Mom-ager." In the show, Dina will "help" her other two kids, Aliana and Cody become intolerable celebrities and, more importantly, moneymakers. Not since "Taradise" have we been less excited by a reality show, but apparently we're in the minority. Searches on Dina's punny program are beginning to climb.

But "Mom-ager" isn't the only reason for Dina's buzz. Lindsay's trip to rehab gave Dina a bit of reflected glory in Search. And there's the recent Rockette scandal. Dina had claimed she was once one of Radio City's finest, but the New York Post says "not true." We're not sure why anyone who lives off their daughter's wealth would lie on their resume, but then again, this is Hollywood. It's all fiction, baby.
