High School Gir's 2nd racy senior photo choice vetoed.Link included now
Re: High School Gir's 2nd racy senior photo choice vetoed.Link included now
There's no way those kids okay'd the first one... yearbook nerds don't play like that.
Who the hell lets their kids take pics like this? Is she the 2nd coming of Courtney Stodden?
There is one or two in that set that would be completely appropriate and adorable for a yearbook. She could have submitted one of those.
She is trying to get attention.
Exactly. Hoping an agent will notice her.
Well the photos definitely give me an idea of what she might be doing in and around the school.
When I was in school the photo had to be a headshot, I think. She has a couple okay pictures in the set but most of them are still really inappropriate.

We miss you and love you always, little firecrackers!
me too... These two I would have given the green light for my yearbook:

The obviously provocative intent is pretty ridiculous, but I also get a giggle from other parts of the story, from the horrible quality of the photos and the beveled "FINE PORTRAITS" text, the idea that the administration MUST be the ones who are putting the kabosh on the photos because any other student would obviously LOVE them, the repeated use to the term "award winning" to describe the yearbook... it's all so very, very full of fail.
She doesn't look sexy, she looks slutty.
Who the heII lets their kid take pictures like this and thinks it's appropriate??? I mean yes, there are a few that aren't trashy, but the overwhelming theme is trashy. ITA with the whole AW thing.
There are several that would be considered appropriate. If she can't submit a good one, then it is her fault.
I don't care if the principal stepped in, it needed to be done.
I am kind of meh about the last shot.
I guess the girl's mother gave an interview where she said she doesn't agree with the photos her daughter submitted but wants her children to "learn lessons from their failures." So even she's backpedaling now after the "what the hell was her mother thinking" backlash from every sane person who's read about this. I agree with previous posters - this is entirely about getting attention, in any way possible, and her mother is entirely culpable. If I'd gone out and had pictures like this taken of me at that age, let alone wanted them in my yearbook, my parents would have grounded me until I was forty-five.
wow.
Granted I went to a Catholic School, but I really don't know many schools that would allow this. Half of these make her look like a escort FFS.
Some of the ones on the bottom are perfectly cute and fine, but obviously that is not the image she is trying to get across... for her high school yearbook.
And smack her mom for allowing this.
