Lindsay Lohan didn't look so happy to see the paparazzi outside The Ivy yesterday (sigh, why go there if you don't want it), though it's not exactly like she's been shying away from publicity recently. After seeing the naked NY Magazine photos and accompanying article where it said that her little sister Ali was around for the shoot, I was just waiting for model mom and future reality TV star Dina to weigh in. Of course, she did. Dina had this to say:

"It was very tastefully done. I respect the photographer as an artist, so I look at them artistically. For him to call Lindsay 46 years later and to say can you recreate these photos is an honor. I looked at it as art, and as Lindsay doing a character. So I don't look at them like it's Playboy; she was being a character. So if you look at it that way, you can look at it as a mother. Trust me, I wouldn't have sent my 14-year-old to the set [if the shoot was in bad taste]. And obviously Lindsay wouldn't do anything with her sister there, that was risqué. Lindsay was very excited when she first got the phone call. Of course we talked about how they would be done. Lindsay said, 'Mommy, I'm never going to get this opportunity to do it again.' She was very thankful she was asked. She's always loved Marilyn. For Christmas, my girlfriends even gave her a Marilyn cookie jar. I think there's a sadness that Lindsay feels for Marilyn. Lindsay really saw it as a gift back to someone."

Well, none of that seems like much of a surprise. Of course Dina supports anything that gives Lindsay more publicity, let's just hope she has as many supportive words about her eldest daughter working on her sobriety and living a more healthy lifestyle than her idol Marilyn.
