Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson get 'Gothic' makeover

In 1930, artist Grant Wood put the finishing touches on "American Gothic," a now-famous painting showing a pitchfork-wielding farmer and a younger lass. Wood entered the piece in a competition at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it won a $300 cash prize. And ever since, it's been parodied to hell. Artist Ben Tegel keeps up the routine with two sapphic celebrities you might recognize.

Whenever I visit the Art Institute of Chicago, I always make a beeline to see American Gothic. It is spellbinding. So no surprise that it is still in the public's imagination and keeps being reinterpreted or parodied. Sort of like the mona lisa…

Didn't reconize them for a second–Sam isn't all that well known, and Lindsay isn't in dire need of a sandwich. :O
