If US courts allow Linds to leave the ­country, she might just be appearing on Britain's Celebrity Big Brother.

The show's executives are apparently trying hard to persuade them to allow her, by arguing that the show will help her get her life back on track. Interesting proposition.

According to mirror.co.uk an 'insider' has said, “We want this to be the best Big Brother ever, so we hope that the courts will make a special allowance... There aren’t many more controlled­ environments than the Big Brother house.” They continued, “Lindsay would be an absolutely amazing signing for us. She’s a Hollywood A-lister and everyone knows about all the trouble she’s been in. She’s a fiery character too, so there are sure to be a some major clashes with other celebs if we get her in the house.”

Earlier this year Lohan was sentenced to 30 days in jail for violating the terms of her probation after a DUI charge. She spent only four hours behind bars in the end, but is still required to complete community service and court-ordered therapy appointments.

Poor ol' Linds, it's sad that it's come to this.
