Breaking the internet
I really liked this photo when I first saw it a few days ago. Lindsay Lohan did a photo shoot for New York magazine which was a re-creation of Marilyn Monroe’s last nude photo shoot. It was even done by the same photographer who took the photos of Monroe - Bert Stern.
The images were so popular on the internet that the magazine’s website crashed after receiving around 20 million daily page views in the days after they were published. The average number of daily page views in January was 1.2 million.
While the cover photo above is really good, and some of the others (I was only looking at the magazine’s site for the articles, honest!) are too, it doesn’t alter the fact that Lindsay Lohan is a fairly mediocre actress who has gained more fame and notoriety for her out of control personal life than she’s ever likely to get for acting.
Still, I’m happy to post the photo here - (a) because I like it, (b) because I know it will be a traffic magnet.
