What do Marge Simpson and Lindsay Lohan have in common? Besides inspiring much laughter (but for different reasons), they have matching Playboy covers.
Leaked online yesterday, LiLo's much-anticipated pictorial shows the nude starlet straddling a red bunny chair, arms behind her head (all the better to tousle her bottle-blonde mane), with her chest obscured by the chair's strategically placed bunny ears.
But it wasn't exactly a unique photo, as iconic cartoon character Marge Simpson struck a similar pose (albeit in a slightly more demure fashion) for a November 2009 cover story titled "The Devil in Marge Simpson." Seated sideways in a white bunny chair, Homer's blue-haired paramour became the first cartoon character to grace the cover of Hugh Hefner's 56-year-old publication.
Both images are a clear homage to Playboy's October 1971 cover, featuring Darine Stern, who was the first African-American model to appear alone on the cover of the skin mag. Looking at Stern's photograph, it's obvious where Playboy got the inspiration for Marge's cover.
LiLo had planned to reveal her Playboy cover next week on "The Ellen Degeneres" show, but those plans may have been scrapped when the photo suddenly appeared online this week. Not that it really mattered either way -- we've already seen it.
