lohancourt230new.jpgLindsay Lohan is now in day 12 of her rehab program at UCLA Medical Center, and according to mom Dina, she won't be staying for the entire court-ordered 90 days of treatment.

Although Linds has been under a microscope at UCLA, Dina tells X17online, "Lindsay's wonderful. Thank you for asking!"

Lilo's mom told Matt Lauer this morning on the Today Show that her 24-year-old daughter will be checking out of the facility soon and "focusing on charity and helping save the next victim of tabloids."

Mama Lohan also revealed that Linds will be ready to talk once she's free. Dina, who once again describes herself as a "hands on" mom, tells Lauer:

    "Lindsay's a brilliant woman and she will do an interview when she comes out."


So it makes us wonder, who's going to land the interview? Will Lindsay give Matt Lauer the exclusive, or will she choose Diane Sawyer, Oprah, Cynthia McFadden or maybe Barbara Walters?

Kudos to Matt Lauer for putting up with Dina's dodging-the-questions interview style. Wonder if being nice to mom was part of his strategy to snag Lilo's tell-all.

Time will tell!
