Something about that picture looked fake, so I thought I was in the AI thread, and I was about to make a joke asking if that was another cake from your local bakery.

I had the same thought when I saw she will be in SI's Swimsuit issue. I'm all for inclusion, but does anyone want an 81 yo woman in the Swimsuit issue?

[mister d]

I assume she’s below the median age of people who still get sports illustrated.

Does anyone still need a Swimsuit issue? I'm actually surprised that its still a thing...

(and it used to be published in the dead week between the Conference Championship games and the Super Bowl)

That is really fucking funny. Man, how great was the Swimsuit issue when we were like 13?

The guy in charge of photo retouching really earning his salary.

[degenerasian]

It looks pretty tasteful. It's not like she's in a string bikini. It's more about the article and older people representing.

[Nonlinear FC]

It's wild how things have shifted culturally. For about 3 years when I was 11-13 I had an SI subscription and taped every cover on the walls of my bedroom. Doc Gooden's cover still sticks out to me.

Anyways, yeah, the swimsuit issue was... something.

Tangentially, I'm kinda thrown off that I haven't seen massive outage from the right over Kim Petras being on one of the covers.

There is quite a bit that I've read. And it will be shown in sales. Will people buy the Kim Pertra issue or the Megan Fox issue?

I like that there are 4 version, inclusivity for everyone. They're just missing a hot mom in the military cover.

I think they're on OnlyFans.

Janelle Monae has a sexy new album out ("The Age of Pleasure"!) and there are all of these promotional photos out there for it where they're wearing silly hats and maybe no top and has the slightest of "o" faces and one of them has been static on the front page of the radio station I listen to every day and I'm going miss when it's gone.

Any of yinz catch the new show from the UK on Max called Naked Attraction? It's fascinating. That's all I'll say until a discussion is started.

I had never heard of it until seeing this article:
Britain’s full-frontal nude dating show sparks U.S. debate as it tops Max

All six seasons of the show — which first aired on Britain’s Channel 4 in 2016 and is dominated by close-ups of full-frontal nudity under bright stage lighting — made their way to the streaming service Max last week.

As it surged to become the top-streamed show this week, it has generated discussion on American morning shows (one host called it “fascinating”) and among viewers. Some said the close-up look at contestants in all shapes and sizes encourages body positivity and is breaking down barriers around squeamish topics. (“We all have a naked body at the end of the day,” one person posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.)

Others called it objectifying; one family values advocacy group called it “pornographic” and demanded Max strip it from the lineup.

One thing is clear: Americans are not looking away.

I feel like I could write an essay about this show. I've watched 3 episodes. It's shocking in that it's absolute nudity, which you don't really see on tv or in the movies. It's certainly titillating as well. That being said, it's very body positive and they do an excellent job of toeing the line/threading the needle without ever crossing the line into crassness (in my opinion). There's also normally at least one or two subtle one liners that have me actually laughing out loud.

Maria Ozawa has a new youtube channel. It's probably been close to a decade....

This interview was fun, good stories of the porn industry. She got invited to the AVN Awards in 2006 but didn't go because her manager didn't tell her what it was. She should have been a huge star in America.

[Johnnie]

Well, she was a huge star on the internet, so that kinda counts.

She was but after the fact. She retired in 2009 where things on the internet hadn't quite taken off yet? So most people watched her after she was done. She missed the DVD craze in the States and Europe and would have been in better quality videos than cheap Japanese productions with creepy old men and probably would have had a longer career than 4 years. Japanese productions are better now but crappy back then.

[Pruitt IV]

Slight bit of research tells me that she is a very fine looking young woman.

[Johnnie]

Between her looks and talent, this is probably one of the hottest women I've ever seen.

Pretty good bit, though.. I'll give her that.
