Lindsay Lohan to read David Letterman Top 10

One of David Letterman’s favorite subjects of jokes in recent monologues will now get a chance to deliver a few laughs on her own: Lindsay Lohan will appear on “Late Show with David Letterman” Thursday night to present that night’s Top-10 list. The show announced Ms. Lohan’s appearance late Tuesday. She will appear on satellite and read the list, prepared by the Letterman show writers. The subject was not disclosed Tuesday.

Ms. Lohan will be making her fifth appearance as a guest on the show and her first since 2007. In the interim, she has been in the news frequently, most recently for being charged with stealing a necklace — a topic Mr. Letterman has visited frequently on recent nights with jokes.

Monday night, for example, he told one saying that in the aftermath of the upheaval in Egypt someone noticed that King Tut’s necklace was missing.
