7. I actually di when I was pregnant the first time (that's the best time to do it, before the stretch marks all show up!).

It was a black and white and the photographers were a husband and wife team. They kept telling me how beautiful I and my tummy were. I did some nude (tastefully blocked parts with hands) and some clothed with my hubby (open shirt showing tummy, hands on belly).

The small photos are in a scrapbook (lift the flap style for the squemish) and the two big nudes are in my master bathroom because we don't normally show that room. If we do show someone that room, we warn them!

8. I think she's a bit too old to be photographed naked while pregnant. Why does she think we all want to see that!

9. If you are actually interested in what is happening instead of copying and pasting every other article that didn't bother to read the quote from the source, you will find that she hasn't been captured by the trend. Her publicist already dismissed the rumour and as for her not doing it yet, she headed to the studio on Tuesday to do her photoshoot.

So, I guess you have another source who didn't say much but put some words out there because he or she knows what to say to see his or her words in print. She is not waiting till she is ready to give birth before doing the photoshoot nor is she doing a nude shoot. And another intelligent bit that seems to go over people's head is that if she was indeed to wait till she was ready to pop, wouldn't the baby have arrived by the time the publication is released?

Here is her publicist denial if anyone is interested:

Of course, most bloggers and publications won't post the denial since it is a lot easier to sit on that 3-legged chair to let us know what they think with her idea of posing nude. The woman hasn't even said much about her pregnancy compared to other celebs and yet, she is going to pose nude.

11. Unbelievable --is there nothing private. I do not want to see anyone else naked and pregnant IT IS A PRIVATE BEAUTIFUL THING--you are all so pitiful and without a life obviously that brings you any peace or you would know no one wants to see you and if you were emotionally well you would not need to show everyone else for some kind of sick voyeurism

Posted at 8:13PM on May 22nd 2008 by Laurie

12. Wow. Those are a lot of assumptions there (at least, it seems that way... I'm having a little trouble making out your points due to a lack of grammar and punctuation).

Assumption #1: either the readers or the posing women are pitiful and "without a life" (unclear antecedent, so not sure to whom you were referring).
Until you show some proof to back up your statement, that is an opinion. Because from where I'm standing on the sidelines, it seems equally obvious that they can have a life and pose for nude photos; it's just a different kind of life.

Assumption #2: if these ladies were emotionally well, they would not need to pose for these photographs. You added something about "sick voyeurism", but that would actually only make sense if you were talking about the people viewing the photos, not the ladies. (Hint- if you want anyone to listen to you, make sure they can figure out what you're saying.)
I don't know if you have any training in psychology, but mental health is not always connected to discrete actions. Usually, it's the motivation behind the actions that counts. So it may be that some people pose nude out of some emotional deficit, but we can't assume that just because they posed. I can back up this point of view, so until you show proof for yours I'm afraid I'll just consider it your opinion.

Happy thinking.

13. Nicole, we as mother's to be are very proud....we enjoy the interaction with the daddy's to be..we should respect our unborn child by keeping our bodies private. In my openion, God has given a gift not to exploit. Anyone who has become a dad or mom knows what an expectant mom's body looks like. Respect yourself and your family...keep your body out of the media.

14. I understand her publicist said she wasn't going to do it. But for all these other exhibitionists, where do they get off thinking the world is waiting to see them nude and pregnant??? I sincerely believe that the word for them is exhibitionist.........

15. when I was pregnant I tore up all the pictures that were taken of me am I oldfashioned or embrassed of being so fat???????

16. Who gives a rats a$$ if these people pose nude 9 months pregnant. We should care more about the unborn babies who will be starving in this country instead of some snot movie star naked with a bulging belly.

Really ....WHO CARES.

17. I am dissapointed that Nicole would stopp so low and go nude in a photograph. I hope it stay's in her own home. We do not need another DEMI shot. Tired of this Baby sharade and Hollywood.
two years later the fight over the custody of the kid's and the divorce.
The American Hollywood trend is sickning and trashy.

18. Marilee
I agree with you

UREW
You also got good points and I agree

20. Grammar? The subject of the second paragraph...Nichole Kidman in ONE of those women who DON'T...."one" is the subject so doesn't is the verb, not DON'T....hellooooo? Must be a Republican writing the story.....can you say "W"?
