The hottest cover-girl on the planet: Kate Upton, is a soft-core porn model that has been raised up by the main-stream media. Her current spread in GQmagazine is nothing more than an excuse to show a lot of breast; and an equal amount of nipple in her wet-t-shirt shots. Some of the pictures are just plain raunchy, and can not even rise to the level of artistry in Playboy.I am not blaming the woman herself, for she is just another Dorothy Stratten; being used by the media to further an agenda. And what is that plan? Money. They want to sell whatever they are marketing; and the easiest and cheapest way to do that is through sex. But the problem is, the peek-a-boo look of Betty Grable does not excite anymore. That was for the GIs of World War II. The new breeds need more. Consequently, what was once sexy, is pretty much standard fare. Nowadays, children have seen their major idols, Katy Perry, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga, repeatedly take their clothes off in front of the world. Everyone else, those coming-up in the entertainment universe, need to go one step beyond in order to be noticed. What surprises, catches the attention; and therefore becomes quickly popular. Money is made. And in the Upton cover, there is just a smattering of child-porn: the seductive, but innocent licking of the Popsicle. Future generations will be shocked by nothing.
