PHOTOS: Terry Richardson Pornifies Glee For GQ

Why does everything Terry Richardson touches turn to porn? We’re not saying Glee is a squeaky clean show — their last episode included a girl on girl reference to “scissoring” — but this spread shot by Richardson for GQ mag just feels totally gratuitous. For starters, why is it that both Lea Michele and Dianna Agron are relegated to varying degrees of undress while Cory Monteith remains fully clothed in every single shot.

Let’s take a stroll through Terry Richardson’s take on William McKinley High School.

The cover, though colorful, should give you a good idea of what the rest of the photos look like. Congratulations, Terry, you have mastered the art of making magazine covers look like American Apparel ads.

In Richardson's version of high school, boys wear cardigans while girls are sex-crazed Britney Spears impersonators in miniskirts and bras.

Subtle.

4.Glee for GQ, by Terry Richardson - November 2010

Slightly more subtle.

5.Glee for GQ, by Terry Richardson - November 2010

Definitely less subtle. But now that you've seen what the girls' portraits looked like, let's take a look at Monteith's.

Sneakers, jeans, a t-shirt, a red sweater, and an overcoat. Also, he's playing with a baseball bat, not a lollipop. The worst part about this whole spread is that it's not even interesting. By now, anyone who sees Terry Richardson's name knows what to expect -- which may be great for his personal brand, but it makes his photographs about as exciting as week-old bread.

francie

terry is a pervert and no one cares its annoying. im mad/disappointed that lea and dianna decided that it was ok to pose like this and present themselves as SEX OBJECTS, and even better UNDERAGE ones… gross. i mean do they really think that this is going to bring more people to watch their musical theater show? 60 yr old men will just gawk and move on. shame.

Ahhhh….Very clever.

In the 3rd picture – the perspective of the shot really draws your eyes to her vagina. Also, while the angle and size of the bench implies aggressive penetration, the photographer has taken great pains to keep her expression curious and innocent. Note her pink high-heeled shoes and white panties. They speak to the dual nature of her pubescent sexuality. One gets the sense of a deep sexual appetite just beneath the virginal surface.

Brilliant.

Hmmm…

I feel like he “phoned-in” the 5th picture.

will never be able to watch glee (and not think of these photos) again. kinda’ disappointed in Lea Michel. She’s much too talented to submit to this kind of exploitation.
