Magazine Reader Wishes She'd Averted Eyes



In the interest of full disclosure, I've been having unpleasant nightmares the past couple of nights (my id needs to tighten up). And now thanks to New York Magazine's spring fashion issue -- featuring nude photos of Lindsay Lohan as the soon-to-be-dead Marilyn Monroe -- they will likely never end. Also, I'm not sure what the magazine is trying to tell me about spring fashion, exactly. "Dark haired people who wear black a lot: try again next year"? So now I'm feeling grossed out AND hated on. Thanks a heaping lot, En Why Mag.

This is Anon again. I haven't even read your post, Minna (btw, your posts are great. I agree with your Chanel synopsis), but I will in the morning. This is the second time I signed on today, and glory be, there are I think, 6 new posts tonight. All in one day! I will retire now, and stifle my excitement, knowing that when I awake, I can read about people that suck at life more than I do! More than 1.22 times! Carry on!

I agree. Vive redheads (even though she's blond here) and Lohan!

I will shamelessly admit that I have a slight…ok, deep obsession and love for wreck-du-jour Lindsay Lohan or Lilo as I call her when we are hanging out in my imagination.
That said, were these pics supposed to represent the ‘last sitting’ or the ‘funeral parlor post-life sitting?’ Ugh times infinity. What happened to my sweet little freckled cokehead? I miss her and I miss Photoshop too . Make it stop! Tighten up Lilo – this is poorly produced porn, not art.

I should perhaps clarify that my call for tightness was aimed pretty squarely at a)the editors of NY Mag for allowing b)the creepy factor of the photographs to overwhelm the subject. With that said, I'm with Team LiLo, even in low-scoring seasons.
