Remember those sleazy/sexy GQ pictures of Glee cast members Lea Michele, Dianna Agron and Cory Monteith that hit the web this Tuesday? Well Agron has released a sort-of apology on her personal blog to everyone who shattered a monocle when they saw cheerleader Quinn Fabray's thighs and dirty pillows.
In the land of Madonna, Britney, Miley, Gossip Girl, other public figures and shows that have pushed the envelope and challenged the levels of comfort in their viewers and fans…we are not the first. Now, in perpetuating the type of images that evoke these kind of emotions, I am sorry. If you are hurt or these photos make you uncomfortable, it was never our intention. And if your eight-year-old has a copy of our GQ cover in hand, again I am sorry. But I would have to ask, how on earth did it get there?
Agron goes on to say that photographer Terry Richardson "asked us to play very heightened versions of our school characters. A ‘Hit Me Baby One More Time’ version." She ends the post musing about her "dream photo" shoot, which I guess she's thought a lot about: "I’d be in a treehouse, in a wild costume, war-paint and I’d be playing with my pet dragon."
My thoughts after the jump.
