Kate Upton Interview, On posing nude ...
I like her! Her reasoning is so thoughtful, and quotable as a result. There really are so many hypocrites and religious fanatics on the Internet & social media that would try to shred her to pieces if she posed nude, although she has nothing against nudity. If someone who has become popular for her perfectly shaped body that fits so well for swimsuits like Kate Upton were to pose nude, there would be an outcry of idiots screaming "Porn!" I know, because I have such family members who can't seem to distinguish art from porn. Well ... in my humble opinion anyway! It's a good interview. Well worth reading; http://the-talks.com/interviews/kate-upton/ Aug 08 14 03:08 pm Link yes, that was a nice read that shows she is very much in control of her brand and career path. Aug 08 14 03:24 pm Link I am sure her assessment is correct on the issues regarding her fame and how it would be received. But I would have to disagree about her control of her brand. She isn't being controlled by agents, managers, and what not but she is being controled by her fame. Aug 08 14 03:38 pm Link she has an entire team, as most people in her league do, talent ultimately will do what it wants, but if she listens, that team will guide her towards making the most amount of money. with the fascination with sex, nudity on the one side and fear and condemnation of same on the other, safe is better than sorry if you want to make millions today. I do not see that trend reversing anytime soon either and the irony of Kim Kardashian's success is not lost on me. Perhaps if we just raised the bar on nudity and went straight to all porn all the time we'd get better results and more reality shows. We certainly need more of those don't we.

Most celebrities have little to no control over their brand.I honestly think her team decided against Kate posing nude because of her status at the moment.But let's see what happens in the next five years. Aug 08 14 06:40 pm Link Personally I would rather she keep her clothes on Aug 08 14 07:37 pm Link Garry k wrote: You mean you would not want to see her nude? Aug 08 14 09:20 pm Link She's already done the body painting for SI and a few swimsuits she's worn have been see through, so it's not like we haven't already "seen" her boobs. Which, let's be honest, are what made her so popular in the first place.

Dude, she is more than boobs! Aug 09 14 10:40 am Link Patrick Walberg wrote: Yes, she's boobs with blonde hair.

Aug 10 14 01:55 am Link Kate Upton, as the new Brand Ambassador for Express I had a chance to shoot Kate Upton recently while she was doing a promotion for Express. I was told it was a runway show, it actually turned out to be a TV production of a "runway show". I believe it was in part to introduce Kate as the Brand Ambassador for Express. A nice girl to be sure, was quite responsive to our need for some still shots, but I'm not sure the new president of Express was all that thrilled with his new brand ambassador. One hopes she has had the opportunity to get back on track with managing her weight, she has shown a tendency to run to size. No, she is definitely not one of those skinny skinny fashion models (which in truth only exist on the runways in Paris and Milan and are usually 16 or younger), but there are obvious problems that her figure presents as she gets even a little older. A sidebar here, every successful older model knows this truth, at sometime around 21 your body starts to pay a dirty trick on you. Where at 16 or 17 you could stuff your pie hole with basically anything you wanted and nothing happened, at 22 it all starts to buy a condo on your body and move in permanently! That's why I recommend that even the younger girls learn good diet and exercise practices because as you get older those will hold you in good stead going forward. Based on my short contact with Kate Upton I have to say she has a presence and seems to be quite nice. And anyone who has seen the Carl's Jr. ad spot featuring Kate knows she can bring some serious heat (and looks fabulous!).

I think that she is a full fugured woman (not over weight) who looks fabulous in bikinis and lingerie. If she chose to do nudes, I think she would be great for some glamour nudes or art nudes. I love those Carl's Jr. ads! Aug 10 14 12:25 pm Link Garry k wrote: Patrick Walberg wrote: I have no need to see her nude either. Aug 10 14 01:10 pm Link Kate has nothing to gain for posing nude so why do it. Aug 10 14 01:18 pm Link Patrick Walberg wrote: It's okay...

I do appreciate all shapes, just have preferences when working with models on assignments... Aug 10 14 01:54 pm Link I think she looks better clothed, a bit too dumpy for a good nude! Aug 10 14 02:06 pm Link Big boobs generally look better in clothing than out. Aug 10 14 02:09 pm Link Aug 10 14 02:10 pm Link London Fog wrote: Aug 10 14 02:18 pm Link |
