TMZ reports that Lindsay Lohan has just shot down a $550,000 offer for her to compete on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars because she refuses to do reality TV.  Sources say Lindsay received several offers to do the hit  ABC series, but said no each time because she wants to focus on films. A rep for DWTS told TMZ, “We don’t comment on casting.” Meanwhile, on Monday Lindsay posted an Instagram picture of herself with Max George to prove she has some sort of relationship with The Wanted singer.

Beyonce has opened up about the fake baby rumors that followed her throughout her pregnancy.  “I felt like I kind of had to protect my mother, because when people made up the silliest rumor about me not really being pregnant, she was there when I went through all of those things. And my sister. They were very, very defensive,” she told GQ. “It's not personal to me, and it comes along with the job, but the lack of respect—people will just go too far sometimes." Meanwhile, TMZ reports that as good as Beyonce was singing “The Star Spangled Banner” at the inauguration Monday, she wasn’t singing live. The site reports that Bey lip-synched to a recording, while Kelly Clarkson sang her version of “My Country ‘Tis of Thee” live.

She explains, “I love the idea of romance and falling in love. I’ve never really had a long relationship. So that’s something I think about for the future.”
