Lindsay Lohan's Playboy cover

According to TMZ, newsstands in New York, Los Angeles and other major cities have already restocked their orders multiple times, and Hugh Hefner posted a tweet Sunday confirming that sales are up. "The Lindsay Lohan January-February Double Issue is breaking sales records," he wrote.
A rep for Playboy also told CNN that the issue was selling "very well." However, when the news outlet contacted 12 newsstands in Los Angeles, Chicago, New York and Atlanta, they only found one seller who had sold out of the issue entirely.
