I was wondering what people thought about the pictures that Amanda Beard posed for in FHM. I was talking to a friend a couple of years ago and she was telling me that she thought that Amanda had "sold out". At that time I was only aware that she was modeling for speedo and other sports related products.
I went into 7-11 this week and there she was on the cover of FHM and in my mind that definatly crossed the "sold out" line. It doesn't change the fact that she's a great athlete but I don't think I take her seriously anymore. What would you think if Gary Hall Jr. posed in a magazine like that in those poses? Would you be able to take him seriously or look at him the same way?
"She has signed a $1 million contract to advertise Speedo’s Axcelerate line. Throw in endorsement deals with Oroweat Bread, Red Bull and Penta water, and a signature line of fragrance products, and Amanda can earn up to $100 million by 2010." - FHM
I just don't understand with all the money that she's raking in already, why there was a need to pose..... How about Vogue Amanda? That's sexy!
Whatever......

I'm inbetweenst Dorothy and Xena. The design style does have a cheesey aspect and the pics with the chest stuck out and mouth open are bad. Her face looks bad because I don't like that makeup and eyes (even guys look up there). On the other hand, half the pics are very good. In a way it's hard to like many of these stars too much since one usually suspects they may be full of themselves. I haven't read the article on her, maybe it says how humble and discreet she is? The pics I like of most of her is when she's swimming. I'm glad she's gotten back to business.
