Michael Lohan reportedly told The Billy Bush Show that releasing audio tapes of Lindsay and ex-wife Dina Lohan was a “big mistake,” according to Access Hollywood.

In fact, he says that he will not release any more recordings.

“I just got a call from my daughter and she was very upset… Evidently she thinks I’m releasing another tape of a call to me. And I’m not,” Michael told Billy Bush for Access Hollywood and “The Billy Bush Show” on Thursday. “I’ve done a lot of stupid things in my life, whether it be with Lindsay, with Dina, with Erin, with people I love and care about, trusted or whatever or did the wrong thing. But… one of the biggest mistakes I ever made was releasing the tape of Lindsay and Dina.”

Lindsay reportedly was upset that new recordings were to emerge, but Michael Lohan said they are recordings that have already been released in the past.

But while Michael Lohan seems to have turned over a new leaf, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to get his dig in.

“There’s no sense in beating a dead horse. I sympathize with Brittany Murphy’s family, with Heath Ledger, with Michael Jackson, with Adam Goldstein and as of late, with Casey Johnson, and there is an issue here with prescription drugs, but why beat up my daughter again, why push this kid to the edge?” he said. “Leave her alone. I did enough damage with that tape that no one has to re-release it.”

Michael Lohan also said he will regret his decision to release the tapes for the rest of his life.

“But it’s a new year, it’s a new beginning for all of us and we want to put things on the right track and the right page,” the Access Hollywood story said.

By the way, this photo of Michael Lohan with Jon Gosselin’s ex-girlfriend Kate Major in the background was taken Wednesday at the Celebrity Boxing 16 Press Conference at Della Pollas Tavern in Milmont park, Pennsylvania. More about that later…

Their choices? Lindsay Lohan, Kanye West and the late Michael Jackson.

So far, this is where the voting  stands:

Lindsay has 50 percent of the votes (1375 votes), while Kanye has 26 percent (704 votes) and Michael Jackson has 23 percent (628 votes).

I know Lindsay’s not perfect by any means, but is she really the most scandalous star of 2009?

Plus, “many” of the stories you see in the tabloids and websites about her aren’t necessarily true.  Check Gossip Cop’s posts on Lindsay.

So please vote in the poll in the link above. 

Is there another star you think should have been in the poll? If so, who?

I don’t think it’s fair to put Michael Jackson in because he died. Kanye, yea, he deserves to be on the list.

How about one of the Kardashians? Or how about Michael Lohan, Lindsay’s father? Releasing all of those audio tapes  to help (hurt) Lindsay should put him on the list. How about Michael Lohan’s former BFF Jon Gosselin. He really should be on the list. Maybe Tiger Woods, even though his “scandal” is pretty new, should be on the list, because it’s pretty big news right now. I just think there are more candidates that are worthy of being on the list along side Lindsay.

According to TMZ, Michael Lohan owes his ex-wife $15,000 in back child support.

But the big question is has he been making money for releasing audio tapes relating to Lindsay, and if so, will he use that money to pay off his family commitments? I guess only Michael Lohan knows for sure.

“My lawyers are going after this person for defamation,” Lohan told RadarOnline.com exclusively. “This report is from 2004…five years ago. I was in the club on one night. I sat at the bar, waiting for the owner because I was trying to schedule a bachelor party for my cousin.

Personally, I don’t think the story is true. It’s a sick rumor.

“I never said anything about dances with Lindsay. I did not go inside the club where the dancers are, didn’t have a dance, and never, ever mentioned anything about my daughter. Nothing happened whatsoever. I just sat there, waiting for the owner of the club to come and talk to me,” Michael Lohan told RadarOnline.com

According to the original story, a former owner of the New York City strip club Scores claims Michael liked to frequent the club and preferred girls who looked like his daughter.

“Obviously this person is trying to make some money and publicity for himself,” Lohan told RadarOnline.com.

I have to admit that the comment above is ironic considering that seems all that all Michael Lohan has been doing lately releasing old audio tapes of Lindsay and Lindsay’s mom Dina Lohan that are very damaging to the family.

Amazingly, Michael Lohan must be taking a Thanksgiving break from releasing new audio tapes about his daughter.

Michael Lohan

The fifth audio tape by Michael Lohan to hurt the Lohan family, especially his daughter Lindsay Lohan and ex-wife Dina Lohan, was released exclusively (again) Thursday to Radar Online.

This one-sided tape featuring only Dina Lohan’s side of the conversation has Lindsay’s mother Dina saying Lindsay is drinking again. Only, there is no reference to when the audio tape was recorded.

On Wednesday, Dina Lohan said all of these conversations took place before Lindsay went to rehab (because she’s obviously not talking to Michael Lohan now). Dina also is working on pressing charges on Michael for recording the calls when she was under an order of protection and Michael Lohan was not allowed to call anyone in the family.

“Time is running out with this kid. I know, I’m her mother and I feel it and I’m scared,” Dina Lohan says on the taped phone call.

Once again, remember this is an old tape.

Michael Lohan did give a response to Radar Online on Thursday.

“That’s bulls***. I called the house to talk to the kids and she would get on the phone and tell me all of this stuff. I couldn’t control that. I have all the tapes to prove it,” Michael Lohan told RadarOnline.

I wonder how many tapes Michael Lohan has? I’m betting Dina Lohan is hoping he runs out of tapes soon.

Dina Lohan

Dina spoke to TMZ in more than a 20 minute interview taped in three parts about how Michael Lohan is hurting not only Lindsay but their other four children.

“It’s time now that someone has to speak out for my children because I not only have Lindsay, but I have four children who have to go to school everyday, and my son’s in college, gets ridiculed on the lacrosse field, so you know, it’s just got to stop,” Dina Lohan told TMZ in a phone interview.

Throughout the interview, Dina says that the tapes he has released are old – they are from before Lindsay went to rehab - and they are edited to be twisted the way he wants them to be.

When asked how Lindsay feels about what her father has done now releasing the audio tapes, Dina skirts the question mostly, but says they “all” feel very hurt, betrayed and scared. The whole family, including Lindsay, has security to keep Michael Lohan away.

Dina also is adamant that Lindsay is doing well.

“Lindsay is fine now, she’s wonderful,” Dina says.

The TMZ hosts very nicely tell Dina many people are rooting for Lindsay, but says there are many who are worried about Lindsay and how she’s doing, especially seeing her in the clubs night after night.

Dina made it perfectly clear that Lindsay is 23 and can go to clubs, but says Lindsay does have problems from a lot of the things she witnessed growing up.

Dina also goes deep into her past as a victim of domestic abuse.

“Lindsay knows in her heart that I’m a victim of domestic violence,” Dina says.

“She saw him hit me, she saw him slit his wrist in a bathtub full of blood, she saw him do things,” Dina told TMZ, saying the damage and pain is there, and it has to come out.

Dina also said the paparazzi makes it hard when they are following girls like her and Britney Spears around 24/7, ready to “push these kids over the edge.”

Because she had a criminal protection order against Michael during the times when these phone calls were made (when he was ordered by law not to contact her), Dina says the police or DA may be able to file charges. And don’t forget, Dina says, he’s behind on his child support too and they are looking into enforcement of that as well. She wouldn’t mind a gag order either.

“To me, it’s so hurtful to my children more than myself. I don’t care what he says about me. A child goes to a parent in a weak moment, and for them to eliminate that worldwide and do that to your own child is just inconceivable to me,” Dina told TMZ.

Dina also confirms that Lindsay hasn’t spoken to her father in months – and the only reason why he saw her a while back (after her burglary?) was when he barged into her hotel room.

After listening to Dina Lohan talk to TMZ, what do you think? What do you think Michael Lohan will do now?

And if Michael Lohan’s relationship with his daughter wasn’t bad enough, this one obviously has Lindsay very upset.

“My father knows nothing other than how to sell stories for money instead of getting a real job like normal people do, including myself,” Lindsay told Gossip Cop.

Lindsay told Gossip Cop she hopes he takes the money he is making to pay the child support he need to be paying.

“I hate him so much,” Lindsay told Gossip Cop.

Michael Lohan’s most recent release to RadarOnline.com has Lindsay’s mom Dina Lohan discussing Lindsay’s dirty laundry in a one-sided conversation where she reveals that Lindsay was dating Heath Ledger around the time of his death.

Dina Lohan also discusses Samantha Ronson’s relationship with Lindsay.

Dina Lohan has spoke up to E! Online about Michael’s personal attacks.

“The tapes were from a long time ago, and for a father to stoop this low is unforgivable,” Dina Lohan told E! Online. “My ex-husband has been in and out of jail for 10 years. My children and I gave him a chance to get to know them again, and he clearly blew that chance!”

Dina Lohan says Lindsay’s dad never should have had the opportunity or access to record phone calls like the one involving Heath Ledger in the first place.

“I have had a criminal order of protection from the domestic violence sector since 2005,” Dina Lohan said, adding that the order extends through 2011. “He was not supposed to even be harassing me by phone.
My heart is breaking for my children that he could do this. He has no visitation anymore and is six months behind in child support. The authorities have been alerted!”

But will Michael Lohan stop? Probably not.

Michael Lohan

Monday morning Radar Online released another audio tape from Michael Lohan – this one featuring audio from Lindsday’s former assistant Jenni Muro. According to Michael Lohan, the tapes were from 2008 about the time Lindsay was guest starring on Ugly Betty.

Of course, you will notice that the tape has been edited so we don’t hear Michael Lohan’s side of the conversation (how convenient).

According to TMZ, Muro is very upset with the release of the tape and says the audio tape was edited and taken out of context.

“I am trying to save your daughter’s life every day,” Muro says on the audio tape. She also discusses her relationship with Samantha Ronson and how she did not want to be put in the middle of the family problem – especially because according to the audio tape – Lindsay did not want to return Michael Lohan’s calls. Muro also seems frustrated with her job and Lindsay in general, however we don’t know if the tape was altered to make her sound frustrated with everything.

Muro, who hasn’t worked for Lindsay in quite a while, told TMZ Michael Lohan’s conduct was “way beyond low.”

What’s really hurtful is this tape release really serves no purpose and probably can hurt this girl’s career more than help it.

According to Radar Online, Michael Lohan obtained the audio in September 2008.

“You don’t even know what I’d go through trying to get her into, like, rehab and stuff,” Dina Lohan is heard telling Michael Lohan allegedly on the audio tape. “She’d like, punch me in the face, kick me out of the car…like you don’t know the (expletive) I went through trying to get her an intervention by myself. It was very difficult.”

“She’s really sad and really hurt and really…despondent. I told her not to go to L.A. at 18…she did. I couldn’t leave these other three (Dina’s three other kids with Michael) to go get her and it was, like, a mess,” Dina Lohan says on the audio tape allegedly.

On Wednesday, Michael Lohan released an audio tape of a very upset Lindsay.

Michael Lohan tells Radar Online the reason he is doing this is because he’s tired of being considered the bad guy and tired of being lied about. Doesn’t he realize that doing this isn’t going to help his “bad guy/bad father” image?

“I admit, I’m being a bit selfish in releasing the tapes,” Michael Lohan told Radar Online. “But I’m tired of being lied about. I’m tired of Dina and others making me out to be someone I’m not, so now I’m going to prove to the world who the real liars are.”

I can’t even wait to read Lindsay Lohan’s Tweets later today when she gets wind of this. Michael Lohan needs to be more concerned about the legal action Lindsay is about to take against him than trying to find old audio tapes to hurt his family.

Michael Lohan released the three-minute audio tape to RadarOnline.com.

“Mommy says that I’m worse than you were,” Lindsay allegedly says on the audio tape. “And she’s defending…She doesn’t back me…she doesn’t stand by me.”

“No one cares about me. They don’t, by the way. It’s about how they feel, not how I feel. It’s not about me. It’s never been about me, unless I fight for it,” Lindsay allegedly says on the tape.

Lindsay, however, has used Twitter today to say the recordings are from years ago. And as much as Michael Lohan wants to make it seem like they are present-day recordings, how can he prove they are recent? He can’t.

Here are Lindsay’s Tweets:

“My fathers such a loser & those recordings are from years ago. To release personal things is foul enough, but to edit them. I used to think

“That he needed the book for dummies on learning how to be a father. Haha-he’s needs the book for dummies on HOW TO BE A MAN.”

“Thank you to my fans for all of your support I luv you all so much! And I’m lucky to have great family & friends THAT ARE in my life & areabout”

According to TMZ, Lindsay has talked to her lawyer about her father and what she can do. Besides getting a restraining order, it’s possible that Lindsay could file a defamation lawsuit against him.
