The Vanity Fair photo is definitely artististic by comparison. But that photo isn't a clean, sensual photo. The touseled hair, the faded red lips, naked under her sheet. It implies that she is waking up after a night of sex. Thank goodness there's no smell-o-vision.

She gave the impression in both she felt pressure from Annie L. That is what I found to be sad. The photographer is well know, and respected. A child will expect to look up to her, and to some extent, do what the authority says. Personally, after reading the article (and before I read the apology) I was wondering why Annie had even brought up this pose to the girl.
