jewels

I dunno. Looking at the full series, I don't think she captures MM at all, other than the hair.

Fuckin train wreck......

Let's not let uncle phil see these, I know he digs Marilyn and I reckon these will send him over the edge...

Marilyn? Hardly. Although I suppose that it is nice to see a young star with curves not afraid to show them off in an academic sense. It's a nice departure from sandwich-needing celebutard. That said, please pass the eyebleach.

The first few slides arent THAT bad.

Her and Britney may be trainwrecks and destined for eternity in the scagrags, BUT, I would not kick them out of the sack. I mean comeon, give me one 90 minute romp. Any middle aged man would take a young, hot, "tight in a muscular sense " hottie. I can do all the things we have been talking about in the forums for the last few days and then boot em.

The_Jazz

Just make sure you have your shots first. And that you wear a condom. Shit, if you're going to sleep with Britney, I should wear a condom.

To be fair, I'd say the stylists, makeup artists and photographer should also share blame for this clumsy pictorial.

True.

Unfortunately she looks nothing like Marylin and looks bored instead of sexy.

levite

Well, I might be a little more charitable. I like Lindsay. I think she's incredibly hot, and she makes me stiff like a cheap producer at a Hollywood restaurant.

That said, I wish she would just be herself, and celebrate her own hotness in her own way. She doesn't look good as a blond in general, and nobody comes off well trying to imitate Marilyn. If she would just go back to being a redhead, get off the drugs and kick the celebrity bulimia or whatever makes her get skinny, and then get naked for us, I would be much happier. And probably would get tennis elbow....

Wake me up when Lindsay "Wanna do Tequila Shots?" Lohan does something that holds even a candle to Seven Year Itch.

whatever1

True, she can be saved as Drew Barrymore was from the 80s and 90s.

ratbastid

The one exception was EARLY Anna Nicole Smith. Like, when she was 22, 23, her early Playboy stuff. Anybody else remember that? She was like the second coming of Marilyn.

Sadly, her self-destruction was WAY more public than Marilyn's was...

Willravel

Cept Camryn Manheim. Huba huba.

pig

Unfortunate. Is this her first quasi-nude professional photoshoot? That spread, in my opinion, seemed like Lohan trying to find an excuse to pop her "Nekkid for the camera" cherry. I think she has the basic potential to be quite attractive...but everything I've seen of her, filtered through media etc...makes her seem fairly grody.

Her facial expression did not titillate me.

We should change the C programming in the thread title:

Is that C? I think it is MATLAB...

i would still love to see them mams bouncing with her on top of me.

Charlatan

I didn't find it all *that* bad... I was a big fan of the original shoot with Marilyn (I had a massive high school crush on her). The Lohan one is a fine homage, I just don't think she got the right drugged out look for the shoot. Marilyn's was more blissed and a bit tired. Lohan's look comes off as used and burnt.

Also, Marilyn was in her mid-30s when this was shot. Lohan is still only 21...

Redheads make horrible blondes. Full body freckles looks kinda cool though, gives a retro unedited look to them. Didn't really like the pics though.. She looks Clumsy.. #9 isnt horrible though...

I couldn't make it past the second photograph. And I don't have anything in particular against Lindsey Lohan. But please, god, stop. The only person that can capture the sexual vulnerability of Marilyn was Marilyn. And we should be happy for that. We all got to see it.

Oh god those were terrible. Her face looks absolutely terrible.
And what on earth happened to her figure? Her hips look completely gone, she was so shapeless.

And she looks nothing like Marilyn, why even try?

I keep forgetting she's so young.

It's a shame to see someone self-destruct like that.

If she had never starred in The Parent Trap as a kid, would we even be talking about her right now?

I really don't understand how girls like Lindsay become so famous and desired... she has always seemed very average to me... you could find a thousand girls who are more attractive (and who could probably act better, too) without even expending much effort.

It's all about who you know and how well you can work your connections in the motion picture business. Most actresses really aren't that pretty without make-up and most aren't that talented; but they know powerful and influential people who can help their career.

Just my $0.02

Yup, I agree... most are just manufactured beauty. If you strip away all the make-up and physical trainers and hairstylists and tanning and designer clothes... they'd look as ordinary and flawed as anyone else.

Here's how I see it.

Lindsay Lohan as Marilyn = Fail

Nekkid Linday Lohan pics (slides 7-9) = nice.

Her personal problems aside, I give her total props for keeping her "assets" real (yeah , I'm talking to you Tara Reid, Christina Aguilera, etc, etc ).

I'm glad I'm not alone thinking those pictures were...kinda bleh. I mean those clothed pictures of her that jewels posted were great. That must have been around the time she shot Mean Girls that was the height of her hotness.

After that she just went off the rails. Also, I agree her as a blonde just doesn't work at all. Her skin tone doesn't match it and neither do the freckles. Neither of which I mind...on a redhead but please God not on a blonde.

The compilation of the actual Marilyn pictures are total hotness though. With this style of nudes its all about the facial expressions and Lindsey could not pull it off.
