Is Michael Lohan a creepy Dad or just very open-minded? Lohan has said publicly he supports daughter Lindsay Lohan’s choice to pose in Playboy.

“If she’s happy with it, I’m happy with it,” Lohan said on Dr. Drew’s The Lifechangers about daughter Lindsay Lohan’s nude Playboy photos. “It’s a move in a direction where she’s working…so as far as I’m concerned it’s a good move.”

Lindsay reportedly received $1 Million to pose for Playboy. And no doubt she really needs the cash as rumors have been circulating that she’s broke. Nevertheless, it’s still kind of weird Michael Lohan is so excited about his daughter posing naked.

James Franco is rumoured to be playing Hugh Hefner in the upcoming Linda Lovelace biopic, “Lovelace”.

Variety has reported that Franco is in the final stages of making an appearance in the film, which stars Amanda Seyfrield as Lovelace. It would reunite the Oscar nominee with his ‘Howl’ directors, Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman.

It’s described to be set “between the birth of the sexual revolution and the culmination of the feminist movement” where the life of Linda Boreman (Lovelace) becomes the world’ first erotic superstar due to the success of “Deep Throat”. It was one of the earliest pornographic films that featured a plot-line that achieved massive mainstream attention.

Hank Azaria plays Jerry Damiano, the writer/director of ‘Deep Throat’ that discovers Lovelace after her husband (Peter Saarsgard) shows him a home movie of her special skill. In fact, Franco was initially in talks to play that role. The cast also features Sharon Stone as Lovelace’s mother and it all began shooting this week in Los Angeles.

Franco’s most recent blockbuster “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” is now available and he is currently wrapping up his lead-role in Sam Raimi’s “Oz: The Great And Powerful.”

Lindsay Lohan is hanging out in Hawaii this weekend, despite being on probation. Part of the terms of her probation is she’s allowed to travel, but she needs the approval of her probation officer.

TMZ reports Lohan’s P.O. was impressed by her being way ahead of schedule in her court-ordered stint in morgue duty and psychotherapy sessions. So they let her hit the beach in Hawaii.

Lohan is going to need to rest up as she gears up for the release of her Playboy spread. We have seen the pictures, and all we can say is “Photoshop Photoshop Photoshop.” However, they are nice pictures. Have you seen them? What did you think?

The moment has finally arrived. We now have a sneak peak of Lindsay’s full spread in the January edition of Playboy magazine.

I’m at a loss for words but what I can comment on is that she looks heavily photoshopped and not a thing like Marilyn Monroe. Hugh Hefner claimed Lindsay was channeling her favourite actress for the racy shoot but in the end, she just looks like a ’70s porn star.

For Playboy, her shoot is pretty lukewarm. Normally, we see a whole lot more from a starlet but Lindsay chose to reveal only those body parts we’ve already seen in previous shoots. Sorry, fellas!

The photos aren’t exactly rated R but they’re certainly not safe for work (unless you work at andPOP). Head on over to Oh No They Didn’t to see Lindsay’s “artistic photographs”.

For the record… We had the photos up but Playboy’s lawyers threatened to sue us so we took them down.

Speaking of stocking stuffers for Christmas this year, Lindsay Lohan’s highly anticipated Playboy debut is about to knock the socks (not to mention pants) off men of all ages.

Dose says Lindsay’s first and only interview since going to jail will be with Ellen Degeneres on The Ellen Show. It doesn’t seem appropriate for most peole to discuss one’s nude photo shoot on a day time talk show but to Lindsay it’s totally the norm.

The cover of her January issue of Playboy is already being passed around the internet and is known tucked away in a secret folder on everyone’s computer. Once again, she channels her icon Marilyn Monroe. She’s seen before a red background straddling the iconic Playboy logo.

“It’s a classic tribute inspired by the original Tom Kelly nude pictorial of Marilyn Monroe, a portion of which was the original playmate which was in the original issue of Playboy,” Mr. Playboy himself, Hugh Hefner reveals.

The only reason I’d want this issue to sell a lot of copies is because those editors who spent 24 hours photoshopping and retouching Lindsay should get a raise.

When she should be cleaning at morgues an preparing for court, it appears Lindsay Lohan has more important things on her agenda: posing for Playboy.

Rumours have been swirling about this for years now but it’s finally made official – sort of!

TMZ reports Hugh Hefner recently called up Lindsay with an offer close to her asking price of one million dollars. I mean, she isn’t gonna strip for peanuts!

Lindsay’s representative hasn’t confirmed or denied this but I’m betting it’s a go. Lindsay’s legal bills must be through the roof right now and since she hasn’t been making movies lately her bank account must be seeing red. No wonder she’s been begging to bear it all for a mil. With that amount of money, she can at least double her net worth!

You can bet if it has anything to do with the Palin entourage, it will be classy and tasteful. And we think Mercede Johnston will have  a very classy and tasteful spread in Playboy, along with a page turning article.

Mercede is of course the sister to Levi. And Levi you may recall knocked up Bristol, Sarah Palin’s daughter. Page Six reports in the Playboy article, Mercede is outspoken of the Palin family, and the treatment of Levi. She is also vocal on her blog http://mercedejohnston.blogspot.com/, where she badmoutha the Palins. In a recent comment on Bristol’s book, Mercede says, “Bristol misnamed her book. It should read ‘Not Afraid of Lies.”

Anyways, we hope Mercede milks her 15 minutes of fame, and doesn’t over do it on the meth. Plus we will hopefully see her in a few years on Celebrity Boxing! Is that show even still around?

Justin Timberlake has revealed that smoking pot helps him relax in an otherwise stressful career, reports Digital Spy.

The singer-turned-actor says he “absolutely” does pot to relieve himself of stressful situations and worries.

“The only thing pot does for me is it gets me to stop thinking. Sometimes I have a brain that needs to be turned off. Some people are just better high,” says Timberlake to Playboy Magazine.

As for music, Timberlake says he isn’t ready to return as he lacks the creative energy to create a new album.

“I don’t have a single song ready to go… People keep asking me when a new song or album is coming out, and I don’t know what to say.”

“Music is not my focus right now. It may be someday. It could happen next month or next year but right now it’s not where it’s at for me.”

Timberlake is now focusing on his acting career, where he will star alongside Cameron Diaz in ‘Bad Teacher,’ which is released on June 24.

Hey, whatever calms you down and makes you productive. As long as he doesn’t get all crazy and out of control, then it’s fine by me.

Have you ever wanted to see Maxine from “Family Matters” naked? If you recall, Maxine was Laura Winslow’s best friend.

TMZ reports that Cherie Johnson (Maxine’s real name) took a nude photo shoot in Southern California that she plans to submit to Playboy.

Johnson — who’s 35-years-old now — tells TMZ, “I have been threatening my family that I was going to do ‘Playboy’ since I was 18 years old.”

Cherie adds, “When my mom said ‘Okay’ … and my grandma said, ‘Bring me a autographed copy,’ I figured I’d make it a goal.”

Michaele Salahi was able to get herself into The White House for an exclusive party, and managed to get herself on TV with “The Real Housewives,” but that’s apparently not good enough for Playboy.

The “Real Housewives of DC” star and self-described former model sent some racy pics to Hugh Hefner’s people, but she was declined the opportunity, reports PopEater.

A source close to the magazine reports that Michaele was informed via email, “There is no opportunity this calendar year to offer you a cover opportunity or place for your pictorial.”

Playboy explained ”We had hoped an issue would be available to present you in the pages of the magazine first. However, that does not seem likely and we do not want to keep them from our readers any longer.”

We want to see these pics. Enough said.

Former ‘Girl Next Door’ Kendra Wilkinson-Baskett, who complained to E! News not long ago that she hadn’t received her invitation to Hugh Hefner’s wedding, has finally received her wedding invitation. Via email.

That’s right – the former girlfriend to Hef revealed on Jay Leno’s ‘The Tonight Show’ Thursday that she has finally received the wedding invite to Hef and Crystal Harris’ wedding. In case you’re wondering who Crystal Harris is, she is a blonde Playmate (shocking.)

“I hadn’t gotten my invitation yet,” the reality star said. “I was a little bit worried, so I put it out there into the universe—the media,” she admitted. “You know, sometimes you have to use being a celebrity sometimes, get things out there and be like, ‘Where’s my invitation? Wink-wink.’”

“I actually got an email from Hef right after that,” she added.

Jay Leno also happened to have a copy of the email – oh the magic of television!

“Dear Kendra,” it read. “We haven’t sent any ‘Save the Dates,’ but if you can’t make the planned wedding on June 18, we’ll just change the date. Do you think I’d consider getting married without you being there?!”

“Keep shaking your booty. I love you. See you soon. All best, Hef.”

How sweet. I wonder if the two previous Girl Next Doors (Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt) got invited as well. Who knows, but Kendra insists she is attending.

“Yeah, of course,” Kendra said when Jay asked if she’d be going.

“He’s really, really happy about it,” she had said earlier. “He’s where he wants to be in life and I’m happy for him…I’m glad he’s doing what he wants to do.”

I don’t see the point of Hef getting married, but whatever makes him happy. He’s gone his entire life being a player and I never would have pegged him to be the married type, yet there he goes shocking everyone once again. Hey – congrads!

The Playboy Mansion’s legendary Grotto is under investigation after a respiratory epidemic following a party at the house earlier in the month.

TMZ reports that a survey was sent out to everyone who worked the party on Feb. 3 to see if there is a connection between the grotto and the sickness.

The survey specifically asks if the workers spent time around two party-centric  “water features” on the property  — 1) Grotto/pool … 2) Dance floor near fog machine.

The party was for Internet entrepreneurs. Fortunately the billionaire entrepreneurs have been able to afford decent healthcare. The same can’t be said for the workers.

Former “Girl Next Door” Holly Madison has found her new boyfriend via Twitter. The former Playboy Playmate started talking to her new love, Jack Barakat, through the social networking site after being introduced by friends, reports E!

“We met through a mutual friend and then somehow somebody retweeted something funny he said on Twitter,” she said. “So I started following him and then we started tweeting each other back and forth!”

The romance blossomed and eventually phone numbers were exchanged.

“We were texting for months, and finally when I had my vacation, I was like, ‘Do you wanna come out hang out with me?’ and he did and we hit it off right away,” Madison said.

It’s very nice to see Holly getting over her former artifact boyfriend Hugh Hefner. Hopefully her new boyfriend can keep going without popping a truck load of Viagara, unlike Hefner.

The original Playboy Hugh Hefner is taking yet another trip down the aisle with one of his beautiful playmates.

Radar Online is reporting that the Hef popped the question to Crystal Harris, a 24-year-old and Playboy’s Miss January, on Christmas. The magazine tycoon took to his Twitter account to announce the happy news.

“When I gave Crystal the ring, she burst into tears. This is the happiest Christmas weekend in memory,” Hefner microblogged.

The 84-year-old did not mention a set date or location for the ceremony, but we imagine Crystal is already eagerly planning away. After all, why delay a wedding to an octogenarian gazillionaire with dozens of girlfriends who look exactly like you?

Fourth times the charm, right Hef?

Mel Gibson’s semi-crazy ex, Oksana Grigorieva, has just been offered the chance to ho it up on the cover of Playboy magazine, TMZ reports.

The Hef’s company has offered Oksana $75,000 to strip to her skivvies and pose for the mag, also offering her the cover if she so wishes. The offer is for a “full nude” spread – meaning that we could be seeing a lot more of Grigorieva than we bargained for.

Oksana has not yet responded to the offer, but it seems likely that she’ll take it to pay off her outstanding legal fees. Hey, a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do, especially with a failing music career and an abusive ex-spouse under her belt!

Go ahead, Oksana! We know you need that cash pretty badly. Just keep baby Lucia away from Google for a while!

Playboy model Tiffany Livingston got a little stir crazy last night while on a flight headed for Newark, New Jersey.  Livingston allegedly suffered from a panic attack and, as far as passengers were concerned, attempted to open a door—which is pretty dangerous when the plane is flying at around 10,000 feet in the air.

TMZ has since determined that Livingston was only trying to stabilize herself during her panic attack, meaning the passengers who say they saw something different were likely just thinking of the worst.

Livingston was detained as soon as the incident took place, but was later released after law enforcement determined that she was not seriously in any sort of criminal trouble.

It would definitely be a little terrifying to think you see someone trying to open a door to escape a flight, though!

Looks like Spencer Pratt actually does have some homemade adult videos after all – though there’s (thankfully) no Speidi appearance.

TMZ reports that “The Hills” star has allegedly stolen another sex tape from playboy playmate Karissa Shannon’s home. Shannon, who made the video with boyfriend Sam Jones, is understandably pretty upset about the whole thing.  In fact, she’s threatening some pretty heavy legal action if Pratt doesn’t cease and desist immediately.

This isn’t the first time that Karissa has accused Spencer of stealing a sexy tape from her Malibu home. We reported last month that Spencer had “accidentally” picked up Karissa’s camera during a visit – which just so happened to be loaded with footage from her ‘intimate experience’ with Pratt’s now ex-wife, Heidi Montag. What a perfectly unsuspicious coincidence!

So let this be a warning to the hot blonde ladies of the world: if you know Spencer Pratt, don’t invite him over and leave your sex tapes kicking around for his sticky fingers to find. Or you could put them within arm’s reach and then sue the beard off his face when he finds them. Hmm…actually…Karissa may be on to something here.

What do you think? Did Spencer actually manage to steal yet another sex tape from Karissa Shannon, or is this just another car to add to the S-Pratt crazy train?

“Real Housewives of DC” hottie Michaele Salahi will be taking it all of for Playboy. Yes, we mean like full frontal nudity.

TMZ reports that Salahi’s reps say the shoot will go down later this month, and she is very “excited.” There is no word whether she will be placed on the cover.

We gotta say, for a 45 year old woman, Miichaele doesn’t look bad and we are excited to see the photos. And once the world sees everything she has to offer, we don’t think she will have any problems attending White House parties in the future. Obama may even give her a personal invite, assuming Michelle let’s him.

Maybe this will make Montana Fishburne’s dad Laurence Fishburne proud? TMZ has learned Montana has done a nude “photo test” for Playboy.

Apparently the test has Montana going completely full frontal nude. However keep in mind Playboy is artistic, so maybe Laurence won’t mind this as much as her porn video, which she completely gets hammered out by a huge dude.

Montana good luck with Playboy. You certainly need the money as its unlikely you’re on Daddy’s payroll anymore!
