Lindsay Lohan in Recreating “The Last Sitting” of Marilyn Monroe
Before Marilyn Monroe died on an overdose last August 5, 1962, she had been commissioned to do a pictorial which is now coined as “The Last Sitting” because it had been the last photo shoot that the sexy icon had attended. Well, as for some fate or just mere coincidence, another drug icon is commissioned to do the same kind of photographic style as “The Last Sitting”and the same photographer has been called to shoot. In fact, Lindsay Lohan will do the recreation of Marilyn’s last photo shoot for the New York Magazine. Well, we just hope that their fate will not be the same too.

Li-Lo has gone LuLu. In’t it bout time somebody lent a helping hand? |
Or gave her a reality check pep talk along the lines of oh, I don’t know, get your ass back to work and be a true actor?
That is, Li-Lo, how about focusing on your career over your need to lord it over the peons, forcing them to fetch the next drink of drug of the hour for you?
I was all for NOT stooping to being overly critical about these kids—like Lindsay, Paris, and Britney. Until I read some nasty-ass remarks, coupled with the latest shenanigans of the supposed top twenty-something starlet.
Threatening an assistant with expulsion from the group/party if he/she doesn’t get Li-Lo the dope she jones for.
Threatening to get away with high-speed drunk and drugged driving because she can…, because she’s a celebrity.
Threatening to kill herself if no one, when she says, “Jump,” asks, “How high, your eminence?”
Spin the rehab revolving door.
Displace blame.
And be as nasty as possible to contemporaries:

Lindsay Low-han high and driving. Again. But that’s not even the worst of it: she has a boat-load of excuses and justifications handy for just such an occasion, being a brat celebrity who plans on doing this again…. |
Does the three-strikes policy hold for celebrities? If so, Lins and Paris and whoever else is on their second law-breaking stint should seriously take heed. If not, why not?
And for those of us not up on who in the spoiled circles has been busted for doing what every other common citizen in the free world (or in the states with DUI/DWI laws) would be considered dangerous for doing even once, start watching the practices of the dressers at Madame Trousseau’s Wax Museum (reports TMZ): thus far, Paris and Lindsay are dressed in old-time prison stripes.
More universal than the California county jails’ orange, I suppose. [But cheekier, funnier.]
My God, I understand the disease that is addiction, and I have nothing really against Lindsay Lohan. [As Christa Miller’s “Scrubs” character, Jordan, would say, I nothing her. Don’t care either way for her acting or for what she does or doesn’t do…. EXCEPT when it comes to possible killing and or maiming.
Then there are the oddly unnecessarily related excuses: someone was chasing her? So did that make you guzzle enough booze to make you more fu—ed up than Tiffany on “Rock of Love” at that time, so that by the time you were pulled over you were off the breathalyzer scale?
Maybe I am confusing stories.

[A] genuine tattoo…. tells a story. I like stories and tattoos, no matter how well done, and if they don’t tell a story that involves you emotionally, then they’re just there for decoration, then they’re not a valid tattoo. There has to be some emotional appeal or they’re not, to my way of thinking, a real tattoo. It tells people what you are and what you believe in, so there’s no mistakes. ~Leo, tattooist, 1993, quoted in Margo DeMello, Bodies of Inscription, 2000 [and again at The Quote Garden] |
I have recently done research on this with a friend of mine who is studying Sexual Psychology in women. Tattoo’s over the breast area represent a woman coming out of a bad relationship or broken heart who is trying to mend or take back that part of herself. A tattoo on the ankle represents a “good girl” who wants to be “bad.” A tattoo on the lower back means “come fuck me.” A tattoo on the arm or forearm is usually done by lesbians and means “I am tough or no-nonsense.” A tattoo on the shoulder means they are a tease or resort to humor/buddy-buddy type interactions with the opposite sex. ~Gaiadamselfly at tattoo now
So much ink is spilled on Lindsay Lohan, so much more on the psychology and symbolism of tattoos in general and celebrity tattoos in particular, that I got interested in matching the former with the latter—looking at Lindsay’s choice of tattoos
According to the poster Gaiadamselfly at Tattoo Now, and using the interpretations as rendered by the popular Vanishing Tattoo, where Lindsay is ranked #73 on their list of “World’s Hottest 101 Women with Tattoos”…

Or is it the other way around? After seeing “Dirt” do a similar leak storyline, I am confused whether it is the thing to do or the thing to avoid…despite how much additional press it brings. |
Lindsay Lohan was on Maxim’s Top 100 Beauties list—along with, in top nine order, respectively, Jessica Alba, Scarlett Johansson, Christina Aguilera, Jessica Biel, Ali Larter, Eva Mendes, Rihanna, Eva Longoria, and Fergie. She’s also tops in the news—again—not so much for being in rehab at Promises but for having played knife games with a buddy over a year ago.
