Okay, everyone needs to chill out and relax already about those nudie pics Lindsay shot for NY Mag. There's nothing wrong with a young girl splashing her freckalicious T&A all over billboards and buses, so zip up your pants and act like an adult. Why? Because Dina Lohan says so! As the momager/pimp tells People, "I looked at it as art...I don't look at them like it's Playboy. Trust me. I wouldn't have sent my 14 year-old to the set. And obviously Lindsay wouldn't do anything with her sister there that was risque." Yes, Dina, obviously. More lessons from the House of Lohan, and Lindsay's pre-shoot workout regime, after the jump.
Not only was the shoot "tastefully done," according to Dina, but both Lohans positively jumped at the prospect of showing the whole world LiLo's junk: "Lindsay said, 'Mommy, I'm never going to get this opportunity to do it again.' She was very thankful." Now, we understand how epic it must have been to recreate Marilyn Monroe's most famous shoot with the same photographer 46 years later, and yes, the pictures are pretty "art"-y in a vintage pin-up kind of way, but isn't it just the slightest bit disturbing how eager Les Lohans were to show some nip? Not to mention their Anna Nicole Smith-like obsession with Marilyn? But there is one silver lining buried within Dina's mouthful of an interview: sounds like Lindsay's replaced former nerve-killers Parliament Lights and ecstasy pills with exercise! Our gal Lohan claims that she reeled off 250 crunches before the shoot. Take that, Suzanne Somers!

The most disturbing part of that whole thing is that Lindsay still says "Mommy."
Holy big hair. I wish she would still tease it out nowadays. Quick, someone tell DiLo the 80's are back.
@Nick_R: Mommy rolls off the tongue a lot easier than "Maternal Pimp"
When is White Oprah going to learn that she is not competent enough to make statements on behalf of her daughter? Cause living vicariously through Linds has worked out really well so far!
Art? As in, clown paintings, kids with big eyes, and velvet Jesus portraits? Okay.
Not that I am a big fan of this kind of thing, but isn't she 21? That's hardly a "young girl".
But still, the whole thing is creepy.
The pages are all stuck together on my "art".
Her miming a true legend is plain sad comedy.
Also: someone give me a fresh pen, mine ran out of ink playing connect-the-dots.
'Mommy, I'm never going to get this opportunity to do it again.'
From your lips to God's ear, Lindsay.
No 21-year-old girl with a onetime meth habit calls her mother "Mommy," I'm sorry, which convinces me that once again Dina is lying about every other aspect of this story.
14 year-old girl observes her older sister's arty nude photo shoot with their Mommy's blessing. Inspirational. That kid would be better off raised by wolves.
@Readsforaliving: You mean she isn't being raised by a wolf?
@Tiger_Tanaka: exactly. No doubt Dina feels that if it looks good on the side of a van, it'll look good in MOMA.
The fact that her little sister was there might explain the look on Lindsey's face though.
@Readsforaliving:
Well you know, she had to send the little sis along to make sure Linds didn't do some crack and start pole dancing.
"Trust me." Oh, OK. Here's my kitten and my ATM card.
Expressions of Marilyn obsessions by younger wannabe celebrities rarely invoke positive comparisons with the tragic sex symbol. Rather it only serves to highlight the imitators' poor identity, changed body ideals from the 50's, and relative trashiness.
See: Anna Nicole, ScarJo, Linds, Madonna, younger Loni Anderson, Christina Aguilera, etc.
I don't think I've ever seen any of these chicks and thought, "Wow, she's the spitting image of her!" I usually dismiss them with something like, "She's no Marilyn." Most either come across as ball busters (Madonna) or trailer park strippers (the rest of 'em). None of them have the softened vulnerability and the, well, class, of La Monroe; Linds has come the closest with this spread, admittedly, but still lacks something -- likely MM's elegance.
Dina must have hunted down the make up artist who worked with Toni Basil when she shot the video for 'Mickey'...
Dina - call Lynne - you need to swap parenting hints... oh hey, just go next door to her trailer, I hear she's just popped a Bud Light...
