Oprah Has Been Accused Of Exploiting Lindsay Lohan

The 60-year-old media mogul has signed the troubled actress up for a reality TV show on her network OWN which follows Lohan as she attempts to get her life and career back on track following multiple arrests and rehab stints. While Lindsay, 27, has claimed the show is her 'last shot' at getting back to the A-List, not everyone is convinced that putting her life on camera is the best choice for the starlet.

Janina Kean, President and CEO of High Watch Recovery Center in Connecticut, told FOX411 that 'everyone is exploiting Lohan and she is not well enough to realise this'. Lohan was sentenced to 90 days in rehab after pleading no contest to charges for lying to police about driving during a car crash in June 2012. She was released in July 2013 and insists she has been sober since. However, human behaviour expert Patrick Wanis, PhD, told FOX411 that 'if Oprah really wanted to help, she wouldn’t need to employ cameras' while Jamison Monroe, Jr., CEO of Newport Academy, insisted that 'in order for Lindsay to maintain a normal lifestyle and get herself back on track, she should be out of the limelight.

He added that: 'Holding anyone in early sobriety under a microscope, with constant media attention could trigger another relapse.' Yet the CEO believes Oprah is trying to help, saying: 'I do think Oprah’s (motives) come from a place of love and compassion, but she is not a clinician.' Meanwhile, in the first trailer for Lindsay's reality TV show, it appears as if Oprah may be regretting working with the actress. Oprah is making the documentary series for her network OWN but the sneak pic for the show, which will air on Sunday at 10pm, shows the media mogul getting increasingly frustrated with Lindsay for being unreliable.

At one stage she warns: 'You need to cut the bulls**t.' Oprah gets annoyed after being told that Lindsay has been by staff on the show, 'She has changed things every single day – not following the rules that they agreed to. She wouldn’t commit to shoot next week so we had to cancel. A clearly frustrated Oprah says: 'This is exactly what everybody said would happen and I believed differently.' She even threatens to cancel the show, saying: 'My truth is that I want you to win, I really do. 'If that isn't what you want I’m OK with that. I'll tell these guys to pack up and go away today.'

However, Lindsay asks to be forgiven and later says: 'I know that this is my last shot at doing what I love to do.' There are many other moments of high drama in the clip, including when Lohan's sober coach fails to answer after being asked, 'Is she sober?'
