Let’s all take our hats off to them for their good taste and restraint for printing nudie shots of John-John on the first anniversary of his death.
. . . Sometimes I’m just so PROUD to be in magazine publishing!

Hi Eve,
sorry, you gotta fill me in a bit… we dont get US mag in Ireland. and who is John-John? (pardon my Ignorance)
Well, Eve, your writing just isn’t People Magazine’s style…
Yeah, US photo spread is gross.
Hi John,
That would be John F. Kennedy Jr.
Nudie pictures? How tasteless.
I’d say JFK jr., Larrigan. But for a moment, I was thinking about nude pics of Cyberian54. Ewwwww.
sorry, I found out… (Holy MAPI tags! search engines are full of information after all!)
thats just evil.
I believe in respect for the dead and all, but I know what I’m gonna be buying off the newstand!
I know this is the Pit, Coldfire, but that was tasteless and uncalled for. I’m e-mailing the mods to get your posting privileges temporarily suspended.
JL, he’s basically the Princess Di of the U.S.A.
This sounds more like something Rotten.com would do rather than a (fairly) reputable magazine. I never read US before and I don’t think I’ll start now.
Why, it’s YOU, John, didn’t you know?
Hah ha, sorry. John F. Kennedy Jr. US is publishing a cover story of nudie shots taken when he was in college. I’m sure they have some smarmy story about “he would have wanted us to . . . It will remind us of what we’ve lost . . .” When everyone knows it’s be their best-selling issue ever.
Excuse me now, I have to go shower with Lysol.
I knew who JFK jr. was, but I didnt know that he was called John-John. Needless to say a search run on “John-john” finds countless Conspiracy Theory sites.
ah, Coldy. thats 2 threads (right next to each other)that I’ve been thinking about Cybbie in… very scary
Oh JEEEEEEZUZ Mojo, unclench your ass cheeks you’re turning blue.
Jeez Diane, do you really think I’m that uptight?
I try and keep my smiley useage to a minimum in deference to ChiefScott. That, combined with my lame sense of humor, means I typically have to explain to others that I was joking. I’d never e-mail the mods even if it did involve nude photos of (shudder) Cyberian54. Any Lysol still left in that can, Eve?
Sorry about the ass cheeks comment. Maybe you’re blue because you’re only cold (and that would explain the nipples).
I heard about this yesterday while watching Entertainment Tonight. The woman who took the pictures was a fellow student at the college JFK Jr attended. She said that she never released them while he was alive because she respected his right to privacy but now that he is dead she thinks that the public would want to see them. I think it was tacky of her myself, maybe she should have offered them to his family. On a side note though they are pretty good pictures of him, very tasteful.
Or as Satan would say…
I’m blue, ba da be da ba da da ba dee do da…
I saw that too, Shanin. Would you think me TERRIBLY cynical if I thought she never offered them when he was alive because he’d have sued her ass off, and she offered them now because she could make a shitload of money from them?
I KNOW the mag business is sleazy, so this shouldn’t surprise me. But every so often they do something that brings me up short.

Nope not at all, in fact I would have to agree with you Eve. She saw an opportunity to make some money off a dead celebrity and took it, and I’m guessing had no second thoughts whatsoever on whether or not to do it. All she saw was the opportunity to make some easy money. I am curious to know what his family thinks of the pictures.
I think his family is pretty much incapable of being surprised by anything at this point.
They’re just probably relieved and amazed that no one managed to get photos of the bodies being hauled off the ocean floor.
Wouldn’t surprise me to see someone selling parts of the airplane on EBay.
I hope the family sues the shit out of the woman.
Actually there is one picture floating around the net that claims to be just that. However, from what I’ve heard the picture is so poor that could be of anything
That helps your cynicism, don’t it?
