Back to the future

Recreating iconic photographs may be the kiss of celebrity death. When the Mistress of Rehab, draped in sheer cloth and captured in various states of (familiar) repose, she bucked up Nymag.com's page views by 40 times, a testament to her popularity (or at least to that of her bare nipples). But, Lilo, look at what happened to your equally ambitious predecessor...

Just like the famous shoot from 2003, when Britney Spears mimicked Angie Dickinson's pantless pose for the cover of Esquire magazine, Brit-fans had little premonition that the bubblegum-pop bombshell was teetering in those 4-inch heels on the brink of mega-disaster. Within a year-and-a-half after the cover was published, Spears was hitched to Kevin Federline, knocked-up with their first child and the star of the eye-opening reality show, Chaotic.

One can only imagine what Britney is thinking now: "See you in hell, Lohan. See you in hell."
