So Lindsay Lohan posed nude, like Marilyn Monroe soon before her death, for the cover of New York magazine. Wittiest take: "Hard not to see the whole enterprise as a suicide note with unusually intense art direction." [The Gurgling Cod via Alex Balk]

I read the whole enterprise more as a suicide note for her career.

Seriously, though, what does she win, here? If money was the object, surely another publication would've paid her more for posing nude, right? If she was simply seeking exposure, there are much more widely circulated publications out there.

@annasballs: Well she did do that crappy movie 'Bobby' or whatever.

If she's copying Marilyn, I think she has to first act in a few memorable movies before she commits suicide.

I think Lindsay will be around for a while.

the inclusion of a hyperlink to "the gurgling cod" would be nice for the reader and much appreciated by the cod that is gurgling, i'm sure.
