Lindsay Lohan nude Playboy images – or at least some of them – have been leaked online. In the photo shoot, the Freaky Friday and Mean Girls actress is made up to look like Marilyn Monroe in the late 1940s/early 1950s. Here’s why: before becoming a 20th Century Fox star, Monroe posed nude for photographer Tom Kelley, who later sold the images to a Chicago-based calendar-making company, which eventually sold them to Hugh Hefner, who included them in the first issue of Playboy, launched in 1953. That’s the year Monroe became a star thanks to Niagara, How to Marry a Millionaire, and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
Lindsay Lohan nude ‘Playboy’ shoot leaked online: Homage to classic Marilyn Monroe images
In case you didn’t know what to get friends & family this Christmas 2011, how about a nude Lindsay Lohan Playboy photo spread?
Seems like the 25-year-old Lohan has always been enmeshed in controversy for one reason or another. Her Playboy spread is no different: the photos showing a naked Lindsay Lohan posing à la Marilyn Monroe have been leaked online, much to the (official) consternation of the Playboy top brass.
“Because of the interest & the Internet leak,” Hugh Hefner tweeted, “we’re releasing the Lindsay Lohan issue early.” Without any apparent consternation, Hefner added, “Lindsay Lohan was the top search name on the Internet yesterday. Her issue goes on sale late next week. Hot. Hot. Hot.”
Good-looking images
Granted, the Lindsay Lohan nude photos do look great. Those writing nasty comments about them are, in all probability, doing so because they’re envious: either they wanted her face and body or the (reported) almost $1 million she earned for the shoot. Or perhaps they’re just envious of her fame/notoriety. Or, why not, all of the above.
By the way, Lohan had already emulated the naked Marilyn Monroe for New York magazine in 2008. The difference is that the previous shoot reflected the Monroe of the early 1960s; the current one brings back the pre-stardom Monroe of the late 1940s/early 1950s.
Lindsay Lohan in Freaky Friday. Her second feature film – five years after the successful family comedy The Parent Trap – Freaky Friday (2003) stars Lindsay Lohan as a teenager who switches bodies with her mother, played by Jamie Lee Curtis. Directed by Mark Waters, the comedy fantasy was another sizable box office hit. Lohan would enjoy two more significant financial successes – Mean Girls (2004) and Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005) – before her career took a marked commercial downturn. As an aside, both The Parent Trap and Freaky Friday were remakes of Disney hits of decades past (see below).
Lindsay Lohan movies
Although generally associated with supermarket tabloids, Lindsay Lohan (born on July 2, 1986, in The Bronx, New York City) has a long – and to some extent respectable – list of movie credits.
She may not have enjoyed as many quality star vehicles as Marilyn Monroe, but Lohan has been seen in several box office hits, two of which were remakes of old Disney films: Nancy Meyers’ The Parent Trap (1998) and Mark Waters’ Freaky Friday (2003).
The former, which stars Lohan as twins attempting to reunite parents Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson, was based on the 1961 hit directed by David Swift, and toplining Disney child star Hayley Mills as the twins, in addition to Maureen O’Hara and Brian Keith as the parents. The latter was a remake of Gary Nelson’s 1976 mother-daughter body-switching comedy starring Barbara Harris as the mother and Jodie Foster as her offspring.
Another hit, Mark Waters’ 2004 teen comedy Mean Girls, earned screenwriter Tina Fey a Writers Guild Award nomination. Besides, Lindsay Lohan herself was a SAG Award nominee – along with her fellow cast members – for Emilio Estevez’s 2006 ensemble political drama Bobby.
Her latest is a supporting role in the (sorta) all-star exploitation actioner Machete, featuring Danny Trejo as the title character. Below is a partial list of Lindsay Lohan movies.

For the record: this week’s Friday movie at the Hugh Hefner mansion doesn’t star a nude Lindsay Lohan – or a fully clothed one, for that matter. Instead, Hefner & friends will be watching Deborah Kerr and Cary Grant in Leo McCarey’s 1957 romance classic An Affair to Remember.
