Lindsay Lohan's mother approves of her daughter's nude photo shoot in the latest issue of New York magazine, insisting the revealing spread is "tastefully done".The Mean Girls actress bares all behind strips of sheer fabric in the raunchy photos, which are copies of images photographer Bert Stern shot of Marilyn Monroe just six weeks before she died in 1962.
Lohan had never stripped off in print or on screen before, but didn't hesitate to emulate her hero Monroe - and mum Dina is proud of her 21-year-old daughter.
Dina says, "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 honour.
"I don't look at them like it's Playboy; she was being a character. If you look at it that way, you can look at it as a mother."
