These may just be outtakes, and the photos in the magazine may be very tasteful and artistic, and beautiful. What I'm saying is that if I had a 15 yr old daughter, working for Disney, and we had been marketing her (and yes they have been marketing their daughter) as a clean cut, wholesome, role model for young girls, there is NO WAY I would have her picture taken topless with a bedsheet. Period. I don't care who the photographer is. I don't care what the magazine is. This is contrary to what the marketing plan is.

Looks sort of like what one sees on the covers of the 'bodice-ripping-two-bit-romance-novels'.

No matter who the photographer or the magazine, why are the parents of a 15 year old allowing pictures of this type to be taken???

Dang she looks like a corpse in that pic with her dad. There'd be no way in hell I'd let my 15yr old daughter pose with a sheet and no top on under it.

Well seems like the mag got what it wanted though, publicity.

Goodness yes! And I contributed to it! ACK!

that is a weird father/daughter pose, imo. i mean, at first glance it seems like a nice pic cause they are both attractive and you think ahh, father/daughter. but then you take a closer look, and think 'what 15 yr old lays on her dad like that? and why isn't he trying to cover up her midriff??' its almost ironic the way he is looking away, as if he doesn't see the sexual suggestiveness of her pose.

ita, it is troubling seeing girls under 18 sexualized

Here are some interesting links. Sure, the source sucks, but all of which would tell me as a mother that I need to tighten the leash.

Link 1

Link 2

Link 3

Link 4

Yeah, sorry to be cynical, but I don't buy the good-girl act. I don't mind if it's an admitted ACT, but she can't claim such purity in her real life and expect me to believe it.

At the same time, she's not my daughter, and I don't really care too much about her.

As a PT, I'm concerned about her medial collateral ligament in links 1 and 2!

I agree with Sharinia! That is no father/daughter pose...blech!

it's the makeup that bothers me the most in the 'topless' pics...it's all smudged looking kind of like 'the morning after'.

Baby Mama star Amy Poehler is about to be one herself.

The Saturday Night Live regular, 36, and her husband, Will Arnett, are to become first-time parents, their rep Lewis Kay confirms to PEOPLE.

The baby is due in late fall.

The couple have been married since 2003.

Yay for Amy Poehler. I love her, so funny.

I still do not like the sheet pictures. The one of her and her dad, and the ones with clothes on, they are tasteful and nice.

Art is about interpretation, and I interpret them to be too racy for the way they are marketing her and her demographic(lindsay lohan was covered by a sheet too), and kids are gonna see Hannah Montana with the "morning after" look and they are gonna wanna be all seductive, draped in a sheet, hair all mussed like she's waking up from a one night stand. JMO.

I expect this from the Li-Lo's and the Paris' and Britney's, because that's how they portray themselves.

Her parents, Disney people and other handlers were all there and all saw the pics after they were taken; smells like someone wants some publicity.

I hate when an actual magazine uses blatantly poor grammar such as The couple have been married since 2003.

Have to say on the Vanity Fair spread, those pics arent any different than the Brooke Shields "nothing comes between me and my calvins" ads, and she was 15 when she did those ads. I think they are nice.

Maris is correct. "Couple" is a singular thing.

Here comes the grammar troll lumbering out of its cave! (that would be me)

When used to refer to two people who function socially as a unit, as in a married couple, the word couple may take either a singular or a plural verb, depending on whether the members are considered individually or collectively: The couple were married last week. Only one couple was left on the dance floor.

I guess in the this case, the verb usage is correct, or acceptable.

so when talking about celebrity cosmetic surgeries would you say boob Job(s) or is it still boob job? I mean we are talking about a unit of two

I don't know. I think it would depend on whether the boobs lived together before they got married.


I was an English teacher for ten years but make mistakes and have made mistakes in the past too. I'm sure it shows in my posts! (or I just don't care anymore)

I think it sometimes shocks folks that I've been a published freelance writer for 30 years, the way I play with grammar and slang here. Plus my spelling sometimes leaves a lot to be desired. A big thank-u to whomever (whoever?) invented Spell-Check! I figure if it's a professional gig, they deserve my very best. Otherwise, it's good ol' stream-of-consciousness for me.

Misspellings and misuse of grammer doesn't bother me in my reading as much as an author getting the facts wrong. Lately in a lot of the books I've been reading of times gone by, the authors have been using the term 'sleeping together' as a euphanism for sex. Come on now, folks, that is fairly new terminology, not something that a 16th century maid is going to use. Drives me nuts!
