LOS ANGELES, Oct 25, 2011 (AFP) - Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan has posed nude for Playboy in a deal worth nearly $1 million dollars, the TMZ celebrity news website reported Tuesday.
The actress, who has faced a string of legal problems and is currently on probation, had wanted $1 million dollars and balked at an initial offer of $750,000, TMZ reported.

But Playboy boss Hugh Hefner recently came back to Lindsay with an offer below her asking price -- but close enough for her to agree the deal, it said, adding that shooting for the Playboy spread began at the weekend.
A spokeswoman for the actress declined to comment, telling AFP: "I am neither confirming nor denying the reports." Playboy also had no comment on the report.
The star of "Mean Girls" was turned away from the LA county morgue last week, after turning up late for community service ordered as part of probation terms, officials said.
Lohan appeared handcuffed in court last Wednesday, but was later released after paying $100,000 bail, and a probation violation hearing was set for November 2.
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner said at that hearing that Lohan had failed to complete the 480 hours of community service as ordered for her jewelry theft conviction.
Lohan was sentenced to 35 days of house detention in May, as part of a plea bargain over the alleged theft of a $2,500 necklace from a jewelry shop near her home in Venice Beach.
Sautner ruled she had violated her probation for a 2007 drug and drunk driving offense when she allegedly stole the necklace on January 22.
Lohan -- once the promising child star of hit Disney movies "The Parent Trap" and "Freaky Friday" -- has a reputation for hard partying and has faced a series of legal tangles over the years.

할리우드의 말썽꾼인 여배우 린제이 로한이 성인잡지 플레이보이의 누드모델로 나섰다고 AFP통신 등 외신들이 미국의 연예전문매 체 TMZ를 인용해 26일 보도했다.
플레이보이는 애초 로한에게 75만 달러를 제시했으나 로한이 100만 달러를 요구 , 결국 100만 달러에 근접하는 수준에서 계약이 이뤄진 것으로 전해졌다.
사진 촬영은 이미 지난 주말 진행된 것으로 알려졌으나 로한의 대변인은 "(TMZ의) 보도를 확인해주지도, 부정하지도 않겠다"고 말했다고 AFP통신은 전했다.
플레이보이 측은 어떠한 언급도 하지 않았다.
영화 '퀸카로 살아남는 법(Mean Girls, 2004)'으로 스타덤에 오른 린제이 로한 은 그간 마약, 뺑소니, 절도 등으로 끊임없이 문제를 일으켜 할리우드의 말썽꾼, 악 동으로 불리고 있다.
