Lindsay Lohan’s nude photos honoring Marilyn Monroe have become an Internet sensation.  New York magazine, which commissioned the photographs, saw its Web traffic soar by 2,000% with over 20 million page views per day for the photographs, versus 2 million views for the entire rest of its site.  Now the magazine is threatening to sue Web sites and newspapers that are publishing the images without permission.

Lohan, a 21-year-old actress with a troubled history of arrests and rehab, got naked for photographer Bert Stern to recreate one of Monroe’s most famous photo shoots.  Just six weeks before her death in 1962, Monroe posed nude with just scarves and jewelry in what is now known as “The Last Sitting.”  Shortly after, Monroe died from an overdose of barbiturates.  Let’s hope Lohan doesn’t recreate that tragic scene.
