LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – A LeAnn Rimes Playboy photos offer has delighted the singer. Playboy wants pictures of LeAnn Rimes to hit its magazine this 2012, claims the singer. But unlike other celebrities who are sometimes horrified by the offer, LeAnna Rimes tells news she is honored. But is she taking it?

LeAnn Rimes has seen other Playboy photos dominate her family in the last year. Husband Eddie Cibrian was the star of the 2011 TV series The Playboy Club. But the show was so dreadful and produced such horrid ratings that it was cancelled after just three episodes. The show by its third episode had less viewers that a simple low budget reality show, pulling in a mere 3.4 million viewers.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – The Lindsay Lohan Playboy photos are outselling previous issues by Pamela Anderson and Tara Reid. Lindsay Lohan Playboy pics for her January 2012 issue hit newsstands last week. But Hugh Hefner is already praising the issue as a commercial success. Hefner’s comments, however, were qualified by other news reports to local sellers.

For Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy pics, Hugh Hefner has been the sole spokesperson. With the exception of a mere tweet and Facebook message by Lohan this last week, Lohan has made no news comment about the spread. That has left Hefner with the ball of promoting the spreads. Hefner has never confirmed to news if he paid a reported $1 million for the spread. But he tells news Sunday that the spread has become a commercial success.

“The Lindsay Lohan January-February Double Issue is breaking sales records,” Hefner said Sunday. Other news reports claimed that newsstands are sold out everywhere and are on backorder. CNN doubted the same. As reported by KTLA, it was hard to find a single newsstand that was sold out. “CNN calls to a dozen newsstands in Los Angeles, Chicago, New York and Atlanta Sunday found just one that is sold out of the issue, and that store expected more to arrive Monday.”

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – For Lindsay Lohan Playboy photos, it was not all smooth sailing, Hugh Hefner tells news this week. Lindsay Lohan Playboy pictures release date came and went today with zero news comment by Lohan herself. While Playboy is not commenting to news if they are pleased or not with Lohan’s lack of news comment and media promotion, Hugh Hefner is praising the spread. Hef is calling Lohan’s Playboy pics as classic, and predicting that it will drive record sales for the magazine for its January 2012 issue. While ultimately Hefner is the best judge of what sells his publication and what doesn’t, criticism of Lohan’s pics has been widespread, even among former Playboy models themselves.

The Lindsay Lohan Playboy photos were supposed to get a release date with national news coverage on a daytime talk show. Instead, the pictures got leaks, takedown orders, claims of Russian spies, and enough intrigue to make even the most gullible fan a bit skeptical of the perfectly timed drama. Amid the turmoil was Lohan’s slated appearance, a single showing on a daytime talk show. The news interview was to be about Lohan, her struggles, how the Playboy photos were a celebration of Marilyn Monroe, and how she was looking forward to 2012.

Instead, Paris Jackson, Michael Jackson’s daughter, stole the show. After a year in which Lohan drew criticism for her legal troubles, Paris Jackson filled in for Lindsay Lohan at would have been Lohan’s sole Playboy promotional appearance. An interview with ELLEN was canceled abruptly.

In the end, Playboy had no promotional appearance by Lohan for her Playboy pictures. The release date came and went with zero news revelation. And ultimately, the big hit of the week was neither Lohan nor Playboy, but Paris Jackson, with many viewers delighted by Paris’ frank, carefree interview replacing Lohan on ELLEN.

So what is next for the Lohan spread? Playboy has yet to comment to news about anticipated sales figures. Playboy has yet to detail about international release dates. Yet with a January 2012 cover date, the spread is expected to hit newsstands worldwide this week and next.

Left with no spokesperson for the spread, Hugh Hefner is now opening up to news about the issue. Hef tells news that initially he was concerned about booking Lohan for the spread. Ironically, Lohan had told news for three years that she would never do the Playboy spread. And for two years, she told news she would never pose again as Marilyn Monroe.

BEVERLY HILLS (LALATE) – Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy photos might have drawn international news coverage but you will have hard time finding any response in Beverly Hills. Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy pics arrived on newsstands this week one year after the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fumed over Playboy pictures of Camille Grammer versus Faye Resnick. But none of the very outspoken RHOBH cast members are talking this week about Lohan’s Playboy spread. Noticeably silent, however, is the RHOBH cast member who even co-funded Ali Lohan’s last music album. Can you guess who she was?

Before there was a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, there was Living Lohan, a reality series which paired Lindsay Lohan’s mother and sister Ali Lohan on screen. Throughout the storyline, Ali Lohan made news as she pursued her music career. The show dominated news in 2008. But at the same time, Ali Lohan began work inside a notable Las Vegas hotel for her second album. Lindsay Lohan’s sister was at the time signed to a small label with a powerful Las Vegas / Beverly Hills family.

Ali Lohan’s 2008 album began recording sessions at the Palms that year and was slated to be released by Maloof Music, a partnership of Maloof Productions and Interscope Records. The Ali Lohan label was co-owned by Adrienne Maloof along with her family members.

In 2008, LALATE reported news that Ali Lohan was recording for the Adrienne Maloof and family label. A FOX news report added “The brothers let the Lohans stay at the Palm, just as Michael Jackson and his brood have been living in another part of the hotel.” The report added “the Maloofs not only are underwriting the album but also the reality series Ali and mom, Dina, are starring in for “E!” “

The RHOBH cast members have been obsessive about each other’s Playboy spreads for two years. But they make no mention of Lohan this week. Just weeks ago, Bravo aired a special segment called Dinner Party from Hell, Producers Cut, in which Faye Resnick delved extensively into Camille Grammer’s Playboy past. Faye told viewers “Someone sent me a Playboy shot [of Camille] and it doesn’t look like a Playboy shot. It look a p–n shot…. I know everything about Camille’s past.”

The Playboy drama heated up last season when Kyle Richards on-air turned to Camille Grammer and remarked “Camille, didn’t YOU also pose for Playboy?” Kyle knew the answer because the Housewives had reportedly looked at Camille’s pictures in the limo en route to Camille’s Malibu mansion. Grammer, as Camille Donatacci, had posed for Playboy, along with the Marilyn Chambers’ Bedtime Stories and The N–ed Detective.

Last year, Grammer drew news debate after she said she didn’t do Playboy Magazine but Playboy’s Lingerie book. Taylor said “It’s clothed? You we wearing lingerie.” Lisa Vanderpump off screen responded to the comment. “Lingerie? I thought the whole point of Playboy is no lingerie.” Like Vanderpump’s response, this week, critics have fumed that Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy photos are barely revealing to marginally qualify for Playboy.

And while Brandi Glanville and the Real Housewives have been a major hit this season, one Playboy-theme has made news for its failure this fall: Eddie Cibrian’s “The Playboy Club”. Don’t expect a flop from the Lohan spread. Her pictures with a release date of today are expected to break records for the publication.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – The Lindsay Lohan Playboy pictures promotion were to get only one news interview: ELLEN. Lindsay Lohan’s Playboy pics were never to be seen by the world until her appearance on the daytime talk show. Then the pictures got leaked worldwide over a week before the telecast. Now Lindsay Lohan confirms she has missed her flight and can’t even make the ELLEN taping. With no exclusive, and no celebrity, the news interview has been canceled.

Lindsay Lohan decided to fly out of California this week. And just like that notable trip to France, Lohan has missed her flight home. Lohan was set to tape her ELLEN telecast in Los Angeles. But Lohan missed her flight today and confirms she won’t be making the appearance.

Yet, even more troubling is that Lohan is merely in Hawaii and has to get back to Los Angeles tomorrow. Apparently between commercial and private jets, Lohan has not been able to figure out the Expedia solutions to world’s travel problems today.

Hugh Hefner has yet to comment on the news. But US Magazine reports that Lohan will not make the ELLEN taping. Lohan has issued a news statement which merely states “Lindsay was delayed in Hawaii due to a travel-related issue…Lindsay offered to tape Ellen tomorrow, but the show was unable to shift things around, and tomorrow is their last day of taping for the season.” Lohan has yet to comment about her court appearance in Los Angeles tomorrow.

Playboy’s spread has drawn criticism for being overly airbrushed and not representative of the actress’ body and skin. Her tattoos were photoshopped out in the editing booth. Her curves appear substantially larger than they do in real life. In fact, many argue that her appearance as Marilyn Monroe in 2008 was far more revealing than this time around.

Lohan says she doesn’t want to be negatively portrayed by the news media anymore. But the same assertion has been made over the last three years. “But now the films don’t. I don’t want to be remembered as someone who just wanted to be photographed, who goes out at night, and gets in trouble.”

Just weeks ago, a Los Angeles Court was furious that Lohan decided to unilaterally to switch her service to a different location than which was ordered by the Court in its probation ruling. The Court was furious that “she trots herself over the Red Cross, that is not my sentence!”

Lohan recently made news suing over Pitbull’s monstrous hit song “Give Me Everything” in which her name is mentioned. Pitbull says “When I was mentioning Lindsay Lohan on the record, it was a positive message.” Pitbull says others have misquoted the lyrics at issue. “The quote they have now is all wrong.” Pitbull says the lyric is not “Hustlers move aside” but “Hustlers move in silence”. “When I say … locked up Lindsay Lohan … it means you run that area.”
