Allure Got Angie Harmon in the Nude
Allure magazine will feature Angie Harmon, along with here-and-there actress Gabrielle Union, singer Jill Scott, Dirty Sexy Money’s Zoe McLellan, and Ugly Betty’s Ana Ortiz, in the upcoming May 2008 issue.
All of these women have revealed the beauty of a woman’s body by removing their clothes for the camera. Their hope is to boost the everyday woman’s image of what is beautiful through this tasteful, artistic nude scene. They want Allure readers to see that beauty is diverse.
“It’s about showing the female body in a positive, beautiful way,” Angie says in Allure.
The women range from verging on too skinny to a curvy size 16 (that is, Jill is a 16 and the rest are skinny). The four are 33 to 37 in age. The four are not overly diverse.
Young and old women are beautiful, too. Have you seen 42-year-old Stacey Dash on magazine covers lately? She’s gorgeous!
I’m not convinced that this will actually achieve giving girls confidence. Most of us aren’t a size 1 or 16; most of us fall somewhere in between.
Hey, Allure: get a real woman naked and then I’ll be impressed. Let’s see the Latino women with a Jennifer Lopez-sized booty. Show me a post-pregnancy body as beautiful. Get Jennifer Love Hewitt to prove that white women are sexy when curvy, too.
Give me healthy celebrity bodies - not under- or overweight ones. That would impress me.
