Lindsay Lohan's highly anticipated Playboy cover was leaked early.
The troubled starlet does her best to channel the old Hollywood glamor of Marilyn Monroe in the much anticipated January/February double issue of "Playboy," available early in digital form at iPlayboy online.
Wearing nothing but a pair of sky-high black stilettos, red lips and a tangle of platinum blonde curls, Lohan poses nude in the 10-page pictorial, recreating the iconic movie star's original spread for the magazine shot in 1953 by Tom Kelley.
But the retro spread isn't the only thing about Lohan that's revealing. Inside the magazine she also opens up about her sex appeal, the paparazzi's obsession with her, and what she would have done differently growing up in the spotlight.
When asked what she's learned over the past five years, Lohan, 25, replied "that ultimately, we are each responsible for ourselves and for our actions."
"Looking back, I probably would have listened to and taken more advice from the people whom I admire and would have followed through with it more," she said. "My stubbornness at 18 and 19 years old got in the way," she added. "During the last five years, I've learned that time flies faster than you think, and because you only live once you have to learn from your mistakes, live your dreams and be accountable."
The actress says when it comes to being sexy, confidence is key.
"Sex and sexuality are a part of nature, and I go along with nature," she said. "I think Marilyn Monroe once said that. I certainly agree with her...Knowing yourself and your body is so important because it gives you confidence, and in life, women need confidence. It's a very male-dominated world to begin with, so knowing yourself and being comfortable with your body is an important thing for me as a woman."
As for constantly being hounded by the paparazzi?
"I have no idea why there is this fascination with everything I do," she said. "I suppose it is all part of this trend of people wanting to know every single detail of a celebrity's life. I mean, once we get to the point where magazines are doing pictorials on my wardrobe to court, that's just so unimportant."
A leaked image of the cover, which shows a seemingly nude Lohan straddling a bunny-shaped chair, flooded the Internet this week more than a week before the "Mean Girls" star planned to reveal a sneak preview of the shoot on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," on Dec. 15.
On Friday, the magazine's mogul Hugh Heffner tweeted he would release the Lohan issue early after the leaked photos caused a "sensation" online.
"Lindsay Lohan was the top search name on the Internet yesterday," he wrote. "Her issue goes on sale late next week. Hot. Hot. Hot."
The magazine hits newsstands in hard copy on Friday, Dec. 16.
