Sources close to Lindsay tell us, the actress was made several offers to join the DWTS cast this upcoming season -- offers that maxed out at $550,000.
But Lindsay -- who still owes hundreds of thousands in back taxes -- shut them down, telling friends she'd never consider doing reality TV ... she wants to stick to films.
But there's one problem -- after "The Canyons" fiasco, she's basically made herself unhireable. And as the saying goes, beggars can't be choosers.
A rep for DWTS tells us, "We don't comment on casting."

Dumb move on her part. I can't see someone offering her a legitimate film role any time soon. Reality TV would probably be a good move for her at this point financially. Plus, if she could keep it together for an hour or so a day during filming she might even be able to come across as likable and win back some public opinion which would also help. No I'm not just rambling this because I'm bitter she wasn't on Celeb Big Brother.
