Lindsay Lohan was asked by famed photographer Bert Stern to re-create Stern's well-known 'Last Sitting' photos of Marilyn Monroe. Lindsay is in various stages of undress for these pictures, i.e. she poses nude.
Her father, Michael Lohan, said he would not want to see the pictures, because Lindsay is his daughter. He also added that "Lindsay is an adult, and she knows the direction she wants to take her career. It is her decision." Michael also felt that it was an "amazing thing" for Lindsay to be asked by Bert to do the photos.
Lindsay's mom, Dina Lohan, had the following to say: "It was very tastefully done. I respect the photographer as an artist, so I look at them artistically. For him to call Lindsay 46 years later and to say can you recreate these photos is an honour." Dina further stated that, she "looked at it as art, and as Lindsay doing a character. So I don't look at them like it's Playboy - she was being a character.If you look at it that way, you can look at it as a mother."
Fine, fine and fine. But, I am really tired of people using the "tastefully done" explanation for explicit nude shots. You don't read Playboy for the articles. You are not OK with these shots because they were tastefully done. There is a huge amount of publicity associated with such photos and of course you made bank. Come on, just give us some straight talk, instead of belittling our intelligence. Simply stated, you are OK with your daughter posing nude because the publicity and money made it worthwhile. Sugar coating is not necessary.
