Brooke Shields, Cougar (Slightly NSFW)

We bet THAT title got your attention!

So our Miss Brooke did a shoot for the new issue of Australian magazine Kurv, and we're kinda scratching our head over the whole thing. Take a look:







We're all for someone doing a little image management and trying to break out of their own mold, and we applaud her for her daring, but does anyone really think this is serving her well? She's Photoshopped to death in some of these shots and she doesn't look particularly comfortable in any of them. We WANT to like these, really we do. We'd love nothing more to exclaim, "You fabulous bitch! Look at you, sticking your face in some boy's crotch and putting your hand on naked boy ass!" But it's just not working for us. It all looks way too posed and art-directed. If she gave some glimmer that she was enjoying herself it might've worked.

Alek Wek in i-D Magazine

i-D magazine celebrates The Best of British Icons in the fashion world by featuring the amazing Alek Wek.

We've got little to add to this one, kittens. There's a reason she rose to the top ranks of her profession and it would be easy to assume that it was due entirely to her striking looks, but one look at these pictures confirms it: that girl is a freaking MODEL. She doesn't just wear the clothes; she makes them sing for her.

Gisele Bündchen by Sølve Sundsbø

It's Sexy Sunday, bitches!

We almost find it hard to believe that we've never featured Gisele Bündchen here before, since she's something of a patron saint around our house. It's a tragedy how watered down the term "supermodel," has become but not only is Gisele worthy of the title, she's really the last of the species. No one else has come along after her and unless the next genetically gifted teenager with just the right amount of attitude comes along, the ridiculously tall Brazilian with the slightly gawky face and the slammin'-est body on the runways has the term to herself for now (as far as we're concerned).

Sølve Sundsbø is a Norwegian fashion photographer living in London. He's received a lot of acclaim from major designers such as Tom Ford, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior, Gucci, Hermès, and Armani.

Grab a glass of icewater and a fan, girls.
