chances are she would show that much back in a dress on a red carpet anyway
IMO, there's more to the photo than just the amount of skin, though. Wearing a strapless evening gown does not (necessarily) carry with it the context of "you could totally hit this" the way the vaseline-on-the-lens bedhead sex kitten pose does.
And hell:
how many people let their 15 year olds, or their 12 year olds, wear makeup?
Wasn't it here where we were talking about the mani-pedi-facial parties at salons and spas for the under 10 set?
Sigh. People are irksome.
Yeah, I get that. I just ... It's a picture. A gorgeous one. And yes, she's fifteen, but I didn't get a huge sexual vibe from it. Maybe it's just me, but it just seems like a big uproar over not much.
Britney's a perfect example of how micromanaging your product's morality is a dodgy business at best. I guess people bought into the lie about her virginity, and it started to mean something to them, where I just think the public should back off the sexuality of a minor, since it's not theirs to consume, however ripe it is. The idea of Miley having sex bothers me much less than the idea of people making money off her sexual image.
Me hating you?
Hey, the weather's cooled off. So I don't I'll wear the vintage lace/linen dress I'd originally picked out. I'll find a pair of pants and a short-sleeved top instead. Maybe I'll wear makeup. I don't feel very femme these days. Even jewellry.
I found this which seems to be the end-all of the Curtis topless kerfuffle, and really? People cared? Don't get me wrong--I think she looks majorly hot, but why is that a big deal? There's no scandal there!
Seriously -- if you look that good at 50, show it off!
In other not-topless news: I am home sick with a cold. I have a porcupine in my throat. I feel like my head is stuffed with dirty socks. And I am not topless.
I'm not topless either! But I do have approximately the same amount of gray in my hair as Jamie Lee Curtis.
I am not topless! I am wearing 2 shirts! and a scarf! And since I am at work, this is as it should be.
I have no grey hair.
I do feel hungover, even though I had nothing to drink last night. Interestingly enough, the other day I drank an entire bottle of wine, and felt fine the next day.
But I do have approximately the same amount of gray in my hair as Jamie Lee Curtis.
Since my hair stayed blonde, I won't know how much gray hair I have until it outnumbers the blonde. Plus it'll probably go white, which would be cool. Or silver, even, which is what my dad's hair did.
My stylist says that I don't have any gray/white/silver yet, and I'm choosing to believe her. God knows I can't see any when I look in the mirror. It'll probably all turn all at once, like overnight.
The idea of Miley having sex bothers me much less than the idea of people making money off her sexual image.
Yes. This. Sexuality is enough to try to figure out as a teenager, without having adults commodifying it.
I've been getting more grey hair lately, which shows up really obviously against my dark brown. Really hate it. Thinking about henna.
