Brett Ratner Re-Gifts to Lindsay Lohan: Caught with Bikini Photo

Re-gifting is always a good idea - right?  You get something you don't really like and instead of tossing it - you just pass it on to someone else.

La Lohan has Been Re-Gifted

Here's a tip - if you are Brett Ratner and you are re-gifting to Lindsay Lohan always check for the pictures of a bikini clad Zeta Graff.

Tough to follow?  Page Six gives a thorough explanation:

Two weeks ago, on his 37th birthday, X-MEN 3" director Brett Ratner received a $900 Hermes blanket from his pal, jewelry heiress Zeta Graff. What he didn't know was that, as a joke, Graff had included a photo of herself in a bikini with a note attached that read, "For when I'm not there to keep you warm."

Okay now Ratner never saw the picture and so later that evening, Ratner reportedly gave the blanket to Lindsay Lohan - with whom he's been romantically linked, although both have denied it - during a private tour of his home.

Lohan was said to be "shocked" when she unwrapped the blanket and found Graff's photo.

Miu gives this snarky comment: the world continues to be shocked that women find Brett Ratner attractive. 

Hey at least it was him in a thong.

Now Page Six reports that later, when Graff e-mailed Ratner to see if he liked the blanket, he responded:

"Lindsay Lohan stole it! I will get it back!" Graff, who notes she and Ratner are not romantic, confirmed this version of events to Page Six, and added, in an e-mail, "I guess now I know that [Ratner] is also eco-friendly and he recycles!"

No - it's not not like recycling a meal.
