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......

To earn $100M by 2010 she would need to make $20,000,000 per year. To do that, she would need to make about $10,000 per working hour. $15K is a lot for a speaking engagement, but if she did two per day, everyday (7 days per week) till 2010 she would "only" earn $38M, and of course she would have no time to train.
The only reason I am pointing this out is because of what a load it is. There is NO WAY Amanda Beard will make that kind of money. If she could, and was still posing in a rag like FHM, then she is pathetic!
