A cry for help?




Celebrity Actress and socialite Lindsay Lohan has sparked media interest again, not for her drunk driving or drug abuse - but a photo shoot displaying shocking pictures of the young lady posing with a gun to her head and "seductively" into her mouth. Another reason for so many to wonder where she is going with this, and what kind of image she is creating for herself.
These controversial pictures were taken by Photographer Terry Richardson in LA, and many of the pictures have already been taken off his website due to a number of complaints. Ms Lohan has made headlines worldwide for her shocking behavior and I'm sure we have all forgotten how many times she has been sent to prison. You would think that she would want to improve her public image and give the impression that she is trying to turn a new page, and put a positive spin on news articles,but sadly, it inst this time.
Maybe she agreed to take them to cause this uproar and controversy, and if so, she is definitely winning!
But what kind of look does this give her, why would she agree to do a photo shoot so striking and defining for all the wrong reasons?

One black and white picture ( below)  is titled "Lindsay Lohan - Suicide" and shows her pointing a gun to her head and looking rather a little worse for wear. Many other images include her dressed in skimpy lingerie (revealing a little too much) and holding a cigarette, while posing on a bed for the camera.

It does make you question what kind of reaction she thought these pictures would generate, and of course, why did she agree to them in the first place? With so many young celebrities risking their health and taking their lives today, I hope Lindsay will not become another statistic in a long harrowing list. Lets hope these pictures are merely a cry for attention rather than a cry for help.
