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. 
 
 “Lindsay, Lindsay, Lindsay,” Mr. Letterman said. 

 embarrassing A Faux Lindsay Lohan Totally Duped The Late Show 
 
 Yesterday, The Late Show With David Letterman announced that Lindsay Lohan would be reading the Top Ten on Thursday night. Psych! Turns out whoever the Late Show was communicating with was not Lindsay Lohan. The show's statement: “Lindsay Lohan will not be delivering a Top Ten list on Thursday’s Late Show with David Letterman, as had been previously announced. We made a mistake. Someone purporting to be a friend of Lindsay's reached out to the show yesterday, allegedly on her behalf, and booked her to appear. Clearly, this person was not authorized to make commitments on her behalf. We wish Lindsay well, and look forward to having her on the show in the future." This is just about the only time in recent memory someone actually wanted to work with Lohan, and she bailed, as opposed to vice versa.
– Oh, the irony! After announcing that none other than Lindsay Lohan would be appearing on the Late Show with David Letterman tomorrow, the show announced that, wait, she wouldn't be gracing it with her presence. Turns out Letterman got suckered by "someone purporting to be a friend of Lindsay's," who was apparently the one who set the whole thing up. "Clearly, this person was not authorized to make commitments on her behalf. We wish Lindsay well, and look forward to having her on the show in the future," the statement added. As for the ironic part, Vulture quips, "This is just about the only time in recent memory someone actually wanted to work with Lohan, and she bailed, as opposed to vice versa." The star, who last appeared on the show in 2007, has been the target of plenty of Letterman jokes lately, the New York Times notes. Earlier this week Letterman said someone had noted King Tut's necklace was missing after the upheaval in Egypt. "Lindsay, Lindsay, Lindsay," he sighed.
