Not News: October 31, 2011
Playboy isn’t the only company with a rumoured $1 million offer on the table to Lindsay Lohan. The makers of the Fleshlight, the #1 male sex toy, have offered Lohan $1 million to make a mold of her vagina for use in a Lohan version. There are already Fleshlights modeled on porn stars Jesse Jane and Lisa Ann. Lohan’s reps say she won’t accept the offer but they accepted Playboy’s offer to do a full-frontal spread on the condition that the pictures would be tasteful. In other words, expect a Lohan Fleshlight when her money runs out.
