Why is it that when B, C and D list celebs strip off, it's considered tacky and shamless publicity, but when the 'A' listers do it, it's considered artistic???

The latest celebs to reveal all in a magazine are actresses Kiera Knightly and Scarlett Johansson for the annual Hollywood edition of Vanity Fair.

The photo was also meant to include Rachel McAdams, but she decided that the nudity wasn't for her. The photographer, Annie Leibovitz, asked designer Tom Ford to step in and make it a threesome!! Because as he said "Three girls in bed is a bedful of girls, two girls in bed are lesbians"!!!!

So whats the difference between nude and naked. Well aparently It was the art historian Kenneth Clark who claimed there is a difference. A naked human body is exposed, vulnerable, embarrassing, he wrote in his 1956 book The Nude. "The word 'nude', on the other hand, carries, in educated usage, no uncomfortable overtone. The vague image it projects into the mind is not of a huddled and defenceless body, but of a balanced, prosperous and confident body ... "


However for most blokes out there who are only going to end up sticking the pages together, what is the actually difference between nude and naked? Surely it can really only mean rat out or no rat out. simple as! Its just a pretty way of attempting to get guys to buy magazines with celebrities on apparently "Nude", when in actually fact all the good bits cant be seen. In other words aload of bollox!
