Magazine founder Hugh Hefner has said he advanced the street date of the highly-anticipated issue -- in which a blonde Lohan channels her idol Marilyn Monroe's famed 1953 Playboy photospread -- in part because photos were leaked online.
The Lohan issue hit Playboy's website on Saturday and the magazine lands on newsstands December 16, one day after Lohan's scheduled interview on Ellen Degeneres' daytime TV talk show. Excerpts of the Playboy interview were released on Saturday.
The former child star whose career has suffered in recent years following arrests for drunken driving, drug possession and theft, told Playboy she would have done things differently in her recent years of trouble.
