I've had plenty of models want to take a photo of themselves naked with me. I've even had some come running and jump into my arms and wrap their legs around me while they were totally nude. I've also had a handful sit in my lap nude while reviewing photos. All on their own accord.

But then, I'm incredibly good looking so I don't blame them.

Some of us photographers are a bit picky about it so we make sure that the model is clean first

Cleanliness is important you know

Yeah, as far as models go, I'm about as creepy as they come.

Photographers, beware.

I like your creepiness.

I found this quote quite interesting from Anne Hathaway:


Interestingly, big time Hollywood directors aren't held to the same scrutiny as we hold ourselves to. Seems she's able to laugh it off.

Why is that?

why you ask

because women are continuously objectified and still have to put up with sexist bigotry, abuse, and harassment, or they are considered bitchy or cunty and they stop getting work.

nothing about this story or any of the other stories are "cool" or "awesome" or "bravado" its sexual harassment.

sorry im not sorry

(and dont take it as anything against you john( or anyone else), im just saying, its never not creepy, its always shitty and should stop. just because the environment helps re-enforce the behavior doesnt make it ok)

Just out of curiosity, would you feel the same way if a female director wanted to "jump into bed" with a few male actors?  Is THAT exploitative?

I'd bet the whole thing would sound a lot less sinister than that shitty caption on Fox News makes it out to be. Remember, these people had probably been working 14 hour days together for months at that point. I'm sure they had quite the chemistry at that point.

Nor would I be surprised if the director was messing with their heads to get them to deliver the reactions or looks they wanted.

While shooting "the Usual Suspects", Bryan Singer had his entire cast convinced they were the infamous Keyser Soze. So much so that when actor Gabriel Bryne discovered (at the premiere of all places) he wasn't the aforementioned character, he spent & an hour afterwards arguing with the director.

Natalie Portman reports during an interview that "Black Swan" director Darren Aronofsky, kept messing with her head, calling up that fellow costar Mila Kunis was light-years ahead of her in the special(?) ballet training that they were taking for the film to highten the competiveness of their characters. It supposed worked for a few weeks until they actors started actually talking to each other.

Fast Times At Ridgemont High -  I love that move!  That's what high school was really like for me in many ways back during the late 70's early 80's.  (Yeah, I've hit the big 50 recently!)  It's amazing I survived! 

Being in the music business, I've got similar true stories to tell.  Many a "wanna be artists" who have been taken into hotel rooms by various road managers.

Or how about mothers who bring their under age daughters, and hand them over on the hopes that they will get a break.
