Lindsay Lohan is to star in a new reality TV show about her troubled life. The 'Mean Girls' star - who has faced criticism for her constant partying, substance abuse and tumultuous love life - is in talks with Britney Spears' manager Larry Rudolph about filming her attempt to make a Hollywood comeback.

A source told FOX News: "Rudolph is helping Lohan with a potential reality show that will encapsulate her trials and tribulations as she gets back on her feet and actually becomes a working actress again." It was recently claimed Lindsay is experiencing financial troubles after struggling to land a major film part for some time.

Although the 23-year-old actress is keen to get her career back on track, she was spotted looking dishevelled as she dined in a New York restaurant last week.

 A source said: "She looked filthy and disgusting, barely recognisable." This isn't the first time Lindsay has been linked to a reality TV show recently.

Earlier this month, Lindsay was reportedly furious when her on/off girlfriend Samantha Ronson asked her to appear in her new series, which will follow her jet-setting life as a celebrity DJ. Lindsay is said to have refused because she was worried the programme would "paint her in a bad light".

In June, she was rumoured to be in negotiations with 'American Idol' host Ryan Seacrest to present a philanthropic programme. Meanwhile, Lindsay is terrified the burglary at her Los Angeles home last weekend will ruin plans to revive her flagging career.
