Summary: WASTER OF MONEY
Comment: I have had photography and graphic books. This is the biggest disappoint. Not alot of pictures. You have to guess who your looking at. Simply awful
Customer Rating: Summary: Waste of time..........
Comment: It is sad that this book is so bad and will sell poorly because it 's proceeds should be going to charity. The pictures are flatly lighted and uninteresting,and the poses are boring. Cindy Crawford looks like a man's face on a female body and the rest look un-sexy and awful.Except I did like Tea Leoni's 'Olivia De Berardinis' like shot. The original pin ups were never mostly naked like these, the girls had short skirts,tight tops and stockings or lingerie and come hither expressions. These women are unarguably attractive but the photog. did not make them look any more alluring than a DMV photo without clothing. Donate directly to Oxfam you do not need this incentive, it is a waste of time.
Customer Rating: Summary: Get over it people
Comment: If you care so much about Oxfam and not about celebrities with barely any clothes then donate to Oxfam and don't buy a book just based on where you think a small portion of the money is going. But you bought the book didn't you? And ya know what you got? Scantily clad celebrities. Huge surprise! If you don't care enough to make a donation to the organization without in return getting to see partially naked celebrities, then you don't deserve to go on an internet activist spree.
Customer Rating: Summary: Regretting this Purchase
Comment: I bought this book specifically because I had read in numerous publications that the proceeds were going to support Oxfam. The book itself features very pedestrian portraits of scantily-clad and extensively-airbrushed celebrities. This sort of thing might have been arousing when I was twelve, but no more so than an issue of Cosmo. This book seems to be relying on the shock value of nearly-naked celebrities to mask an otherwise second-rate and unimaginative collection of photographs.
After reading Oxfam's statement about the jeweler who contributed his wares to the book (Leviev), I did some more reading about the guy. Turns out, not only is the guy a major builder of settlements in the occupied West Bank (the ones that the U.S. government has called "obstacles to peace"), but he's also been accused of kidnapping, torturing, and assassinating diamond miners in Angola, fired hundreds of striking workers in Namibia, is constructing the first privatized prison in Israel, and is deeply involved in the gradual expulsion of poor people of color from areas of New York that he is helping to gentrify. This is one seriously sketchy character.
He'd apparently claimed (falsely) to be an Oxfam donor in the past, no doubt in an effort to repair his tarnished image. And when Oxfam called him out on it, he apparently decided to resort to even more deceptive tactics to exploit their name to build up his own. Seriously unethical.
This book is little more than a glorified advertisement for Leviev jewelry (kind of like all those bad 1980s cartoons that were mostly designed to advertise action figures). Don't take the bait.
