London, February 28: Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan has reportedly signed a $3.3 million deal to front an explicit photographic book alongside actor James Franco.
The actress who completed a court-ordered 90-day rehab stint last month and is currently awaiting trial over the alleged theft of a $2,500 necklace – is reportedly “struggling” to find work after her recent troubles.
American photographer Terry Richardson has persuaded the 24-year-old star to appear in the publication, which will feature “full frontal nudity” and “graphic” shots.
“Lindsay is struggling to get another break in Hollywood. There’s a stigma attached to working with her and she is determined to change this – starting with the photographic book,” contactmusic.com quoted a source as saying.
“Terry Richardson has persuaded Lindsay and James to get involved. He has assured them it will be provocative but tasteful. There will be a lot of nakedness – some of it graphic and suggestive – but it will be a real statement book.
“Obviously there will be comparisons to Madonna’s 1992 ‘Sex’ book. But James and Lindsay believe theirs will be classier.”
