Celebrity Nudity

Why are we so obsessed with seeing a celebrity nude? If for instance Britney Spears was not famous, would we be so interested in her nude body? What makes them so special?

Are celebrities more attractive perhaps? There are so many stunningly beautiful people out there, yet they don't get the same attention as a celebrity, so I would say no.

Or is it a bit of curiosity? This might be true as celebrities that have not bared all seem to get more of this type of attention than those that do regular nude scenes. If ths is true then might we as a society become a bit more mature about nudity, if it where a more common occurance?

Just a thought. :)

Who would go nude?

I've been thinking about who would and who wouldn't go nude. It seems that a lot of people (especially young women) have the view that to pose nude is demeaning or yuck. What a load of shit! I just did a photo shoot with a woman who is 45 years old. A lot of young women can learn a lot from her.

All her work colleagues told her how brave she was and how they would like to have tried it when they where younger. You have no idea how many times I have heard from women over 30 who have told me that they really regret not posing nude when they where younger. A lot of young women say it is yucky or that they feel uncomfortable or that it is demeaning. What is demeaning? To celebrate your own youthful body? To be proud of who you are? How is that demeaning?

I think the problem stems from the perception that nude=porn or nude=sex.
