Will Georgia Salpa follow Rosanna Davison into Playboy?

marbless · 2011-09-06 19:20:16

Paddy Power has made Georgia Salpa 7/4 favourite to be the next Irish woman to pose nude in Playboy magazine, following Rosanna Davison's decision to get her kit off in the famous publication next year. Any takers?:p

Quotes from Rosanna Davison's end-of-year interview with the Irish Times last Saturday:
"One of my big worries doing Playboy was my responsibility towards women and towards feminism or towards the movement. I decided to do it based on my academic understanding of women;s writing and literature and that fact that I haven't made a career out of glamour modelling or taking my clothes off.

"I came up with the idea of a tribal beach theme, and I wanted to look both strong and feminine. I wouldn't have done it if they said 'Lie back on a bed with silk and satin lingerie'. I wanted to look strong and fit and toned and healthy.

"I agree it adds to the objectification of women. There are no two ways about it. Every other aspect of modern society, though, from advertising to reality shows, also fuels that. It seems one big cyclical objectification. I wouldn't have done the shoot if I were not in control of the whole thing, from the location to the hair and make-up of the final shots. It was all down to me. There were 100 shots taken, and I picked 40 and I told them what to airbrush and what not to. What I was trying to put across is that you can be everything. You can be desirable and sexy and in control."

So there. (The headline on the interview? "I Don't Know if I'm a Feminist")
