Lindsay Lohan Nude Playboy Shoot A Desperate Cry For Help

Lindsay Lohan‘s career is waning. If the multiple court appearances and jail stints were a sure sign, her recent bid for a spread in Playboy magazine sealed the deal.

According to TMZ, Lohan initially declined the original offer of $750K because she was holding out for a cool million. It now appears she may be getting a figure considerably close as sources confirm Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner and Co. recently went back to Lindsay with an offer just shy of her asking price, but clearly close enough for her to sign on the dotted line as reports confirm she began shooting this past weekend.

Reps from Lindsay’s camp are still trying to keep the photos hush hush by stating the following;

“I can neither confirm or deny at this time.”

The Lohan coaster rolls on since Lohan recently fired long time manager Lou Taylor, who also manages Britney Spears, after she was tardy for her latest attempt at completing community service. According to Foxnews.com, Lindsay was worried that Taylor didn’t spend enough time on her affairs.

Well if its attention Lindsay wants she will get plenty and then some as celebrity Playboy editions often sell more than 2 million copies worldwide.

But is Hugh Hefner and Playboy the best attention that Lilo needs right now?

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
