Lindsay Lohan's mom/manager Dina has approved her daughter's nude pictorial in the current issue of New York magazine saying it was "very tastefully done."

The naked photos, which was a recreation of the iconic 1962 Marilyn Monroe photo shoot, was done by the same photographer, Bert Stern. Dina says she respects Stern as an artist and looks at the pictures artistically.

"I look at it as art, and as Lindsay doing a character. So I don't look at them like it's Playboy, she was being a character. So if you look at it that way, you can look at it as a mother," Dina tells People magazine.

The mother also reveals that her younger daughter Ali was on the set during the shoot, which she wouldn't have allowed if she thought the photos would be scandalous.

"Trust me. I wouldn't have sent my 14-year-old to the set [if the shoot was in bad taste]. And obviously, Lindsay wouldn't do anything with her sister there, that was risque."
