Bathing beauty Lindsay Lohan takes the plunge in a daring white swimsuit (shame about the streaky fake tan)

Lindsay Lohan looked like quite the water babe as she stripped off by the pool while relaxing at a Hollywood hotel over the weekend.

The buxom actress put her curves on show in a daring white swimsuit which featured a plunging sheer front.

But her eye-catching look was tainted by blotchy fake tan, which was particularly noticeable around her armpit.

The star regularly has bronzing disasters, but still refuses to embrace the alabaster look.

As she made her way to the pool after a cooling dip, Lindsay covered up somewhat in a white dressing gown and red pumps.

The swimsuit is something of a departure from Lindsay’s usual style, with the actress usually favouring bikinis to show off her figure to its full potential.

But perhaps Lindsay is attempting to give herself a bit of makeover, amid reports she is set to star in the next video from eccentric pop star Lady Gaga.

The pair first hit the headlines with their friendship when they enjoyed a night out together at Chateau Marmont.

And now Gaga is said to be keen to sign Lindsay up for the video for one of her new tracks.

A source told the New York Post: ‘Lady Gaga and Lindsay caused a stir last month when they had their “sleepover” at the Chateau. And now it turns out that Lindsay will be starring in Gaga’s new video from her upcoming album ARTPOP.’

It is unknown as yet what video Lindsay will make an appearance in.

What’s up? Lindsay looked deep in thought at one point as she bit her nails, but soon brightened up

Yesterday, Lindsay dressed down in a shredded T-shirt and denim shorts as she hit the shops in Venice, California with a male companion.

 

With her phone and a bottle of Sprite in hand, the actress was seen looking around the boutique as unsurprisingly a few gems caught her eye.

And she certainly looked in need of some new threads.. as her own looked very worn and distressed.
