Texsox Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 OS ANGELES (Reuters) - Two decades after a nude photo scandal helped cost a Miss America her title, Americans may be adopting a more ho-hum attitude toward people who bare it all for the cameras. Some experts say the Internet and more explicit TV are fostering a more relaxed response by Americans to public displays of bare flesh, even if many people profess to be more conservative. Take, for example, the muted reaction to nude photos of 18-year-old Vanessa Hudgens, the star of Walt Disney Co.'s squeaky clean "High School Musical" franchise, One day after the photos surfaced on the Web last Thursday, Hudgens issued an apology and family friendly Walt Disney Co. said it would continue negotiating her appearance in the third installment of the hugely popular series, one of the most popular programs in U.S. cable TV history. While some expressed outrage, many fans pledged support on her MySpace page at http://www.myspace.com/vanessahudgens. Some lashed out at her critics. "Quit moaning and if you have any kind of decent filtering on the computer, kids aren't going to see it," wrote one poster on a media blog Web site at http://acemanonline.wordpress.com. It's a far cry from the scandal in 1984 when Vanessa Williams, the first black woman named as Miss America, resigned after nude photos surfaced of her and another female model. "I do think that general attitudes about nudity are becoming more relaxed, but these changes take time, which is why there's still mixed responses," said Paul Levinson, communication and media professor at Fordham University.

juddling Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 you know...when this all broke out and vanessa admitted that it was her in the photos, i told my wife that it hwas the best thing she could do because at the time i believed that she was underage and it would be considered child porn and alot of these websites kepping the pic alive would be forced to take them down. then the MSM started saying she was 18 and i thought i was wrong. Then i hear today it was a older pic. so now back to child porn. It reminds me of the E! True Hollywood Story about Jenna Jamison. She did all a bunch of videos when she was younger and once she got control of her own tapes she admitted to the press that she was only 18 and every video she did before was now considered child porn and she had financial control of her own career.

Traci Lords also did some underage porn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
