Lohan's dad 'won't look at nude photos'

Lindsay Lohan's dad has vowed that he will not look at the results of his daughter's nude photoshoot.

The actress has recreated Marilyn Monroe's final 1962 shoot in the latest issue of New York magazine.

Michael Lohan said he supported her decision to pose for original photographer Bert Stern but admitted that he could not bear to look at the results.

He told Us Weekly: "I'm not going to look at the photos - that's my daughter! But Lindsay is an adult, and she knows the direction she wants to take her career. It's her decision."

He added that it was an honour for Lindsay to be approached to sit for the pictures, saying: "The fact that the photographer who did Marilyn Monroe's pictures would ask Lindsay to re-create them - that's an amazing thing."

However, he said he hoped his daughter was not headed for the same fate as the screen icon, who died of a drugs overdose in 1962 at the age of 36.

He told the magazine: "I pray there are no parallels to her and Marilyn Monroe's destiny."

Lindsay's mum Dina yesterday spoke out in support of the star's decision to take part in the shoot.
