Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy Cover Leaked… Will You Buy Lindsay’s Playboy Issue?

red hot or not?

Lindsay Lohan’s much anticipated Playboy Magazine issue, due to hit newsstands in January 2012, has of course been “leaked” online for your viewing pleasure, and to entice you to buy the actual issue as soon as it is available for purchase, of course.

I have to say, I have always admired Playboy Magazine’s inventive photo editing department and art designers. Playboy is constantly coming up with new and creative ways to incorporate its trademark rabbit into its magazine covers. Playboy is also extremely crafty at making the most of a model’s assets, celebrity or otherwise. I am impressed with Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy cover.

At first blush I was a bit disappointed in Playboy for exploiting Lohan’s troubled infamy and legal woes to gain publicity and raise its bottom line. I even went so far as to question what Lindsay will wind up spending her $800,000 Playboy pay day on (drugs, perhaps? I truly hope not!). I do hope Linds gets a good financial planner on her team, continues to pursue her sobriety, and gets back onto the big screen where she really thrives as an artist; yes as an artist. The girl is a good actress.

Lindsay Lohan also seems determined to permanently ditch her natural redheaded charms ala Ann Margaret, for a bleached blonde Marilyn-esque image. I kind of miss the red hair, Lindsay. I think it’s your best color by far. Even so, Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy cover is quite beautiful. Many will argue that it is re-touched within an inch of the starlet’s life, but as I said, Playboy’s art department is top rate. They are in the business of creating beautiful photographs and fantasy, and they do it better than anyone.

What do you think of Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy cover, and will you buy her Playboy issue next month when it hits newsstands?
