The incarceration of Lindsay Lohan caused media mania last month.
First there was her Complex spread, thrown together in the wake of her sentencing for probation violations. Now Lohan has landed the cover of Maxim.
Somewhat surprisingly, the trashy men's magazine doesn't feature Lindsay Lohan nude except for her court-ordered ankle monitor, as we half expected.
She does wear a jail-appropriate black and white striped bikini, however. Hey, it's no orange jumpsuit cut off at the waist, but it will have to do ...
Lindsay Lohan apparently looked - and felt - good a week before doing time.
"I am feeling strong," she said of her imminent jail sentence for violating her probation. "I've experienced a lot in my life," she added. What a warrior.
"My mom has given me a lot of faith. This too shall pass."
The wreck, now being treated for drug addiction and mental issues at UCLA Medical Center following her release from jail, shared her post-rehab plans:
"To focus on myself and my work and to move all press on me to focus on the work I do. Also, I'd like to do more work in India and travel to Malawi."
As for Lindsay's advice to the fans she has left? "Stay true to yourself always. At the end of the day, you have to look at yourself in the mirror and be content with the choices you’ve made, and will make, in your life. Go with your gut!"
Can she go with her gut and keep it clean?
