Racy Glee-Q Photo Shoot Incites Hoopla
OK, so I’m a little waaaay behind in my Glee postings and trying not to face the fact that I’m just not as into the series this season as I was the last. (Things all went south for me at Grilled Cheesus…)
But for now, HOLY MOLEY! Have you heard the scuttlebutt about Dianna Agron, Lea Michele, and Cory Monteith’s racy GQ cover shoot? Parents’ groups, members of the media, and even some fans are up in arms about the spread, which you can read about (and see a slideshow) here.
I suppose I side with Dianna Agron in all of this. In an enlightening Tumblr post, the actress-Gleeks-know-and-love-as-Quinn writes:
If you are hurt or these photos make you uncomfortable, it was never our intention. And if your eight-year-old has a copy of our GQ cover in hand, again I am sorry. But I would have to ask, how on earth did it get there?
I was a very sheltered child, and was not aware of anything provocative or risque in the media while I was navigating through my formative years. When I was finally allowed to watch a movie like Grease, I did not even understand what on earth Rizzo was talking about!? I understand that in today’s world of advanced technology, the internet, our kids can be subject[ed] to very adult material at the click of a button. But there are parental locks, and ways to get around this…
She’s got a point, I think. How about you? Whaddya think, Gleeks?
