He wasn't happy at first with how Lindsay Lohan's photospread for Playboy came out, but Hugh Hefner seems to have been appeased in the meantime. In a new interview with The Insider, he dishes the details on the much-mediated photospread.

In between court appearances, jail sentences and shooting down tabloid reports on her Twitter, Lindsay Lohan signed a very lucrative deal with the famous men's magazine, one that would see her pose like never before.

Or, as The Hef tells The Insider when asked if Lohan will be shown in all her splendor, “Oh, yeah!”

At the same time, though, he also insists that the spread will be very “classy,” so that fans know they're not about to see a side of Lindsay they haven't seen yet.

He also offers a very important detail about the theme of the shoot: apparently, it will be inspired by Marilyn Monroe, Lohan's idol.

“It's a classic tribute inspired by the original Tom Kelly nude pictorial of Marilyn Monroe, a portion of which was the original playmate which was in the original issue of Playboy,” the media mogul explained.

The spread will be included in the January / February 2012 issue of the magazine, which will also bring a photo of Lindsay on the cover.

As we also informed you some time ago, after shooting for the spread for about 4 days, Lohan was called back, amidst reports that Hefner wasn't happy with how it came out.

Word had it he also contracted another photographer for the job.

Speaking of Lindsay finally agreeing to pose for the magazine, her mother, Dina Lohan, stressed that she only accepted the offer because she was promised it would be classy.

“It was an opportunity for her and she's done thousands and thousands of covers, so this was just something... she's 25 now. It was just something that was her decision... we have a contractual say in how far it goes and her and Mr. Hefner will decide,” Mrs. Lohan said, as we also reported at the time.

Lindsay was also promised a final say in choosing the cover for the issue she'll be featured in.

“She'll pick five covers, he'll pick the one, but she has a say. I don't want to get into the contract, but it will be tastefully done,” Dina said.
