Women of all shapes and sizes pose naked for project to embrace their bodies


The struggle to feel beautiful in an airbrushed world: More than 150 'normal' women of all shapes and sizes pose naked for project to embrace their bodies


In a world where women are bombarded with Photoshopped images of supermodels in magazines and perfectly sculpted specimens on the runway, one photographer has made it his mission to glorify the natural beauty of the naked female body. 
Matt Blum, a Minneapolis based photographer, and his wife Katy launched 'The Nu Project' in 2005 and have captured more than 150 women in the buff in the comfort of their own homes. 
He asks women to volunteer for the project and shows up at their door, having never seen them before, for the nude photo shoot. 
The women are of all colors, shapes and sizes. Participants heard about the project through word of mouth or Craigslist. 
'I believe that women are judged more harshly by appearance, and that’s why I’ve focused this project on women,' Blum said in a description of the project on his website. He hopes the experiences encourages women to embrace their shape and not feel ashamed at their bodies. 
All women must be 21 years of age to participate and sign a release before the shoot. 
'From what I've experienced, 99 per cent of the women who've participated have told me that they saw themselves differently and that they felt more beautiful,' Blum said in a Reddit discussion on the project. 
'I got into this work because I didn't like the amount of nude photography that was either focused on a) perfect bodies or b) making women look extremely average just to prove that everyone is average.'

KIERSTON Wareing has stripped off for a new role in Brit flick The Fall of the Essex Boys.
The EastEnders star appears as Karen in the British gangster film based on the true story of the Rettendon Murders.
Robert Cavanah, Peter Barrett, Jay Brown and Simon Phillips and former Celebrity Big Brother star Martin Kemp's son Roman also stars in the film.
Kierston, who stars as Max Branning's wife Kirsty Branning in the BBC1 soap, has previously starred in Channel 4 drama Top Boy as Heather.
The movie follows the rise and fall of the feared criminal gang The Essex Boys.
Their reign of terror hit the headlines in December 1995 when the bodies of Craig Rolfe, Patrick Tate and Tony Tucker were discovered in a Range Rover on a remote Essex country lane.
Director Paul Tanter relives the exploits of Rolfe (Simon Phillips), Tate (Peter Barrett) and Tucker (Jay Brown) in blood-spattered close-up as police hunt down the gang and decide to play off different factions of the criminal fraternity against each other.
Violence escalates culminating in the murders in Rettendon, which were previously dramatised in Terry Winsor’s film Essex Boys.
The Fall of the Essex Boys was released on February 8.

Breasts, Buttocks, Genitals Ban At Grammys


'Please avoid exposing buttocks... genital region... breasts and nipples': CBS issues 'Wardrobe Advisory' ahead of Grammies


The Grammys, known for its over-the-top provocative performances by the world's top musicians, and home to some of the sexiest red-carpet dresses during awards season, seems to be smarting up.
Yesterday CBS sent a Wardrobe Advisory to all attendees and performers in advance of the 55th Annual Grammys, which will be broadcast this Sunday.
Asking that all talent appearing on camera 'adhere to Network policy concerning wardrobe,' the email stipulated that 'buttocks and female breasts [must be] adequately covered.'
Banned: CBS sent a Wardrobe Advisory to Grammy attendees, banning outfits like Lady Gaga's that 'expose bare buttocks,' and 'be sure the genital region is adequately covered - no visible ¿puffy¿ bare skin exposure'

The email which was leaked to Deadline and came attached with an image of Pink performing in a barely-there costume at the 2010 Grammys, added: 'Thong type costumes are problematic. 
    'Please avoid exposing bare fleshy under curves of the buttocks and buttock crack.
    'Please be sure the genital region is adequately covered so that there is no visible “puffy” bare skin exposure,' it stated. 
    Don't follow by example: Janet Jackson's now infamous performance at the Super Bowl in 2004 saw her 'accidentally' expose her breast - and hit headlines worldwide

    The requirements, directed mostly at female awards attendees, also include the specific instruction to 'avoid sheer see-through clothing that could possibly expose female breast nipples.'
    And even gowns with plunging necklines aren't safe for the guidelines, which says: 'Bare sides or under curvature of the breasts is also problematic.'
    It remains to be seen if the celebrities, used to getting maximum publicity for wearing minimum clothing, will follow suit.

    However, those modest few who like to use the red-carpet as a sounding board for meaningful (or provocative) statements will also have to tow the line.
    CBS stated in capital letters: 'OBSCENITY OR PARTIALLY SEEN OBSCENITY ON WARDROBE IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR BROADCAST.'
    It continued: 'Finally, The Network requests that any organized cause visibly spelled out on talent’s wardrobe be avoided. This would include lapel pins or any other form of accessory.'
