Actress Lindsay Lohan tells People magazine she wants to visit the troops overseas, accompanied by New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.
In the September issue of Elle magazine, Lohan states: "I've been trying to go to Iraq with Hillary Clinton for so long. Hillary was trying to work it out, but it seemed too dangerous."
Following in the tradition of Betty Grable, Raquel Welch and Marilyn Monroe, Lohan tells Elle, "I wanted to do what Marilyn Monroe did (during the Korean War), when she went and just set up a stage and did a concert for the troops all by herself. It's so amazing seeing that one woman just going somewhere, this beautiful sex kitten, who's basically a pinup, which is what I've always aspired to be."
"I'm not afraid of going," she says. "My security guard is going to take me to a gun range when I get back to L.A., and I'm going to start taking shooting lessons."
Lohan made no mention of the dread camel spiders plaguing the troops and USO visitors who come back from Iraq telling hair-raising tales of the venom-less scorpion and spider hybrid that actually charges people at 10 miles an hour, and can measure up to six inches.
In the Elle interview Lohan denies any plastic surgery, "I've never done anything" and using cocaine "I'm not. There you have it. It's not true."

Proof her head is empty. This is just a selfserving effort for self promotion.
I'm pretty sure if she took a big gulp of helium and held her nose she could get into the jet stream and float to Iraq. What an air brain. I and I know the military people in Iraq are getting very tired of Hollywood types who spend a week 'in country' as we used to said in my generation and think they are making a commitment to the country and the war effort.
By the way, it's Senator Clinton to you, Missy.
I dunno. I think the troops deserve a bit of entertainment... anything to take their minds off, if only for a minute, the war going on around them. I dont really think I could handle 24/7 of the nonsense they have to put up with, so my hat is off to every man and woman over there. And so what if she gets a bit of self-promotion out of it, the troops get a few minutes to enjoy something other than the realities of war. Thats something.
Almost every action people do is self serving in some way. It could be the feeling one gets from helping another. I see nothing wrong with a good looking lady like this wanting to go give the troops a moral booster.
it would be so hot if a camel spider attacke dher-
I would so , like, laugh...
I think Lohan needs to have some short of 'class' which she is far from having. Give the troops a reason worth fighting for not a reason worth to dying for.
Okay, first and foremost, what this article doesn’t say is when the AP touched base with Sen. Clintons camp their response was essentially, “It was mentioned to Lindsey that she could contact an organization (sorry forgot their name) that sets these types of things up w/ celebrities who wish to visit the troops.” Which I assumed meant, “We have nothing to do with Lindsey Lohan, nor do we want to be in any way associated with her”
Which, of course, is awesome.
I love this broad, “Oh I’m really tight with Senators, aren’t I like so awesome?”
The world is slowly but surely getting sick of this twit and thank the Lord its happening faster and faster each and every day.
Cheers to you James G. Robinson!!!!!
I wouldn't touch her with any of my eight hairy legs...

It's totally understandable why Lohan would wish to go to Iraq to entertain US troops. Someone or something has to attempt to lift their morale this administration just cannot. And there's nothing like a free show to, just for a brief moment in time, take the utter grimness away from our servicepeople. It's better than our troops raping and burning Iraqi 14 year old girls....
