"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood:" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll. Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby, Herbie Fully Loaded, Georgia Rule, Machete, and Freaky Friday. Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca, Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005).

Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of Summer 2010, Tri Angle Records released an interesting piece of work, Let Me Shine for You. This very multi-media statement came packaged along with the Witch-House comp:

Inspired in part by Lindsay Lohan's grotesquely fascinating black hole existence and in part by my unwavering belief in the power of pop music as an artform, I saw an opportunity to create something interesting with her music, and decided to ask some friends to re-interpret some of Lindsay's songs. "Tri Angle Records Presents: Let Me Shine for You" is the result. Even though we are all fond of Lindsay in our own ways, there is no FREE LINDSAY agenda here. We all love Pop Music and this is merely an experiment. All of our intentions are very sincere.

Lindsay Lohan's latest public ~~backstep~~ move is a spread in the January/February 2012 issue of Playboy. It's a "tastefully provocative" photo spread modeled after Marilyn Monroe's iconic layout in the magazine's 1953 inaugural issue. After Lohan's Playboy cover was leaked on Dec. 7th and the companion spread emerged earlier today... Hugh Hefner imminently decided to push the magazine's release date up from it's planned Dec. 15th shelf date. An exact re-scheduled release date has yet to be announced @ press time. Lindsay Lohan will reportedly still appear on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" this coming Thurs. to discuss the $1 million set of images and related current events.

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra
