Maybe I shouldn't be pissed at Lea, but I am. An open crotch shot. Really?

yeah, i was grumpy about that too.

ugh, those pics are awful!

Those pictures are ridiculous and gross. The whole sexy-schoolgirl fetish has always creeped me out big time. And Lea, I love you, but you're trying way too hard to be sexy.

Agreed. Is it just me, or were her pictures way "sexier" than the girl who plays Quinn?

I dunno. I just feel like Lea is trying to hard to be a star. I feel like I wouldn't like her as a person.

I think I would like Dianna Agron. I loved her for being in "Bold Native."

And I liked that she responded on her blog about the photoshoot, although I do think it is a bit of a cop out to say she was just playing an exaggerated version of Quinn and the shots don't represent her at all. I think the brilliance of the Quinn character is that she has grown up with this idea that she needs to be in control at all times, and her arc of development is about being graceful in the face of the inevitable things that are out of her control - accidental pregnancy, boyfriend blurting things out, being rejected etc.

I do really want to see the dream photoshoot: If you asked me for my dream photo shoot, I’d be in a treehouse, in a wild costume, war-paint and I’d be playing with my pet dragon. Until then…..

And yes, the school girl fetish is really creepy.

Tacky pictures!
And for those who share the cablevision woe....why didn't they pull Fox News and leave my Glee etc alone.

I kinda like DA's expression in the photo with the red pompoms behind her head. Other than that, those photos are gross.

I saw those photos yesterday and was so grossed out. Whoever okayed that shoot needs to be slapped.

Oh my gosh. Those pictures are so gross! I'm mostly horrified at the pictures with Lea. Dianna's do seem like an exaggerated version of Quinn, but Lea's are so far from the way we normally see Rachel. She just can't go from wearing an owl sweater to wearing just underwear.

yeah, i totally hate that photoshoot.

and the more previews i see of the rocky horror episode, the more i'm getting this sinking feeling that it's going to be awful.

I'm just not watching anymore previews of that episode. I heard part of the Time Warp, and it sounded like the person who's playing Frank (which I'm not saying in case anyone hasn't been spoiled) was singing it. At no point (show or film) does Frank sing the Time Warp. RH(P)S FAIL.

Is Mercedes only wearing the outfit seen in the Time Warp clip? If so, that's unfortunate.

There's very little Frank, but for some reason that's the snippet played most. It's still mostly Riff Raff and Magenta, according to the link posted by Amanda back on the first page.

I try to be really understanding about these types of things, but this photoshoot is disgusting. I do appreciate Dianna's attempt to comment on it when she has no obligation to, but the photos are still just horrid. Everything about the spread. It is always an argument for these types of things to blame the parents for letting their kids see whatever offensive/over-sexualized thing of the day is, but that's unfair in this internet age and with the hypersexualization of young people. Regardless of anything that has to do with our society, the photos themselves are just completely revolting. These are the new young role models and the whole show is geared towards its young fanbase. You have to have SOME responsibility. A GQ shoot? For Glee? This does not make sense. Maybe a GQ shoot for Nikita or even Chuck. Maybe a Seventeen shoot for Glee. Argh. Whoever ok'd it is definitely not on top of things. And the fact that the girls are grossly sexy while Cory gets to watch as is the proper role for the male, just makes it all that much worse.

I haven't looked at and refuse to look at these pictures. Thank you for protecting me from being slimed. <3

forking Terry Richardson strikes again. I wish he'd disappear, kumquat.

I watched the clip of the Time Warp performance. Um. :(

Basically! But why did GQ hire him to shoot the Glee cast? And why didn't they say no? I have the sense that Lea Michelle was happy to go soft-porn but Dianne wasn't, which is why her shots are so much more explicit. Hey at least they didn't agree to the beaver shots that are Richardson's speciality

Seriously.

It's the day before the Rocky Horror episode and the Glee thread is on page THREE??

If anyone in the Philly area has a TV and wants to watch with me, just let me know and I'll come on out! :D Otherwise, I have a late-night piracy date with my teddy bear...

My feelings on the Rocky Horror episode are mixed. I might just go see it live tomorrow instead...

I don't like Rocky Horror, so this episode is comparatively very low-pressure for me.

I assume I will be watching this on Hulu on Weds. Cause Newscorp/Fox sucks.

I've never seen any version of it so I won't be comparing it to anything, I'm definitely not excited about it and that clip seemed average. Also, I have to agree about the photos :/
