The Highly Difficult, Yet Total Justification of Celebrating Emily
Summer is thankfully gone and fall is finally here, and unless youâve been living under a massive rock these last few days distressed because your precious summer filled with happiness and sand everywhere is officially over, youâve mightâve noticed the net was set a blaze again over the weekend with the leaking of more female celebrity nude photos, and the way these recent secret snapshots have been leaking the past month, the change of seasons wonât be stopping them from acting as if they are a punctured bottle of Smartwater mixed with nasty Blueberry-acai Emergen-C in your work bag potentially ruining everything in it. The stars of Round 2 of âThe Fappeningâ consist of my favorite perfectly-round-shaped head Hayden Panettiere, newly-wedded Gabrielle Union, Rihannaâs redux and Kanye Westâs queen Kim Kardashian. However, the true star of stars, or more like the real MVP of this round of leaks is the British-born bombshell Emily Ratajkowski. The supermodel is mostly known for prancing around topless in the controversial Blurred Lines music video last year. Sheâs also risen to notable fame for her jaw-dropping photo spreads where she sometimes has clothes on and sometimes she doesnât. In a world where Kate Upton is considered the LeBron James of modeling, Emily truly is Kevin Durant, with all the potential of being better. While Emily and her impending arrival on the big screen in the coming weeks and months, beginning with Gone Girl, I feel her work on the small screen will be remembered centuries from now.
I know this is entire leaking of celebrity women and their very private photos is a disgusting act, a felonious invasion of their privacy, which they by no means deserve to experience along with the everyday battle women face for equality in the world, and the perpetrator(s) should be punished, however, letâs do the unthinkable and impossible by attempting to look on a brighter side of things for a change. Can we appreciate the female body of already-adored women, and, as Amanda Marcotte says, encourage and celebrate the fun of taking nude photos? While weâre at it, Emilyâs very own (pre-leak) views on nudity shouldnât be ignored, either. âThe female body is a beautiful thing,â she told Ocean Drive Magazine last month, â⌠it should be embraced and celebrated, and thereâs nothing wrong with being comfortable in your own skin.â 100% agree, I recall Kanyeâs cover art for his critically-acclaimed My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy being pixelated for itâs mild nudity because retailers werenât thrilled about placing its untouched original art on shelves. For some reason, and Emily agrees with me, America and our beloved culture hasnât gotten used to nudity, whether there is some sort of nudity of human flesh or in a painting, itâs viewed in a negative manner and beckons massive amounts of outcry, especially if itâs women compared to us men. âWeâre at an interesting time where women have been told to take the pill is cool, to sleep with whomever you want, or wear what you want,â she says, âbut if youâre naked it can be offensive or sexiest in some way.â She continues, âthatâs the last step our culture needs to deal with. We have this culture where men, especially, watching pornography, but then offended by a classic nude portrait or photograph, and Iâve never felt that way.â Much reason to believe why she advocates in nude spreads like the incredible shoot she did with Treats Art Magazine, as opposed to the aforementioned Upton whoâs never posed nude. Emily is on record for stating nudity should be welcomed more than it is, however, itâs not known if her beliefs have wavered now that all of the Internet see her in an more in-depth light, yet, we should still be appreciative, finding light in this dangerously dark cave known all over the country as âThe Fappening.â Letâs add some sort of positivity to an already very, very negative subject and situation. Emilyâs nude photos obviously werenât meant for my eyes, nor the guy in the corner of Starbucks who looked them up, or even the girl on the bus who was on Twitter when she first saw them and just so happens to be a lesbian. As ridiculous as it sounds, letâs attempt to appreciate and celebrate the rawness of nudity of the female body with these photos in a respectful manner, better than weâre known to be accustomed to in this country even under the awful circumstances they come with. If not, then simply stop reading and close the tab because you wonât like the rest of this. I believe Emily being one of the many victims, with her belief on nudity and greater good for its deserved appreciation, can represent a possible paradigm shift, or at least the start of it.
In an attempt to not sound like an incredibly perverted creep, Emilyâs leaked photos quite frankly changed my life. Upon seeing them, I couldnât stop thinking about them, I was amazed and a little flustered. I didnât want to stop looking at them. Not just because she just so happens to be no. 2 (depending on the day) on my top 5 most adored women in my heart, but her general beauty is rather stunning no matter if she has layers of make-up on while at a party to celebrate a magazine cover, or in a tub with a cigarette between her perfectly plump lips (And I absolutely loath women who smoke) in the nude winding down. In 2014, nude photos are as common as TMZ cracking major sports stories, theyâve become a mainstay in the 18-45 demographic as The Simpsons have done my entire life. Nude photos are an art, like sarcasm, either youâre really good at it and it comes easy, or youâre not, and Emily is the former, while the rest of the ladies â compared to Emilyâs genius â felt more of the latter. One thing Iâve learned during all this besides how strong my inner pervert can be sometimes: celebrities truly are normal people no matter what their famous for, and it shows in some photos. Us men always believed in our inner creep hearts and fantasies our favorite celebritiesâ nude photos, if they were to ever get out, were like having a winning lottery ticket, but apparently, weâve been proved wrong a bit. As normal people accustomed to seeing dolled-up sensational female celebrities looking their absolute best all the time, we tend to place them on a pedestal of ungodly-like stature in our minds like they arenât capable replicating the common regularity with normal underrated flaws we see every day from our peers. Meagan Good, someone many of male have been lusting after for over 15 years since her role in Nickelodeonâs Cousin Skeeter, fell victim this past weekend, too, and left many disappointed when herâs were the nudes equivalent to the decade-prolonged Dr. Dre album, Detox. Apart of Emilyâs earlier acting chops, she was on Nickelodeonâs iCarly for a couple of episodes, but males newly in love with her from those two episodes were lucky enough to see her skipping around music videos topless a few short years later compared to us with Good.
Emily shatterers all expectations and pseudo-competition, herâs were more like the Super Bowl or Wrestlemania of leaked nudes; Iâd be lying if I didnât say, in somehow a less hideous way as possible, I was hoping herâs would pop up eventually. Sheâs a phenomenal supermodel, and you can tell she takes her work home with her, it shows in those photos; can totally see why she dropped out of school at UCLA to further pursue modeling. As I was saying earlier, believe or not, thereâs an art to nude photosâposes are crucial, facial expressions have to showcase confidence, rather than awkwardness, and what youâre willing to show/do, obviously, in photos are the key into a guys heart (and his iMessages and emails). As Marcotte says in her column, âA nude photo sent to a partner who is away on business can help remind them that the home fires are burning, keeping the relationship strong during absence.â Iâm unfortunately not Emilyâs boyfriend (still holding out hope just off the fact weâre both June babies of the 90s), but if she sent these photos to me, my house could be burning to the ground while Iâm in it and I wouldnât know it because I wouldnât be able to unglue my eyes from my phone. Those type of photos can be the proper medicine for their designed destination. Sometimes, guys could be having a difficult day, a few properly-taken nudes at the right time can be the perfect digital digestion that could get the opposite sex through that difficult day, and Emily passes with flying colors and HDR unfiltered shots compared to her celebrity leaked photo alums, not to say this was a competition all these celebrity women secretly conjured up to see whoâd prevailed, but Emilyâs are lightyears ahead. She exhibits great simplicity mixed with impressive divineâwhether it was an upright photo of herself in a mirror, countless upper body photos only baring her âEmilyâ necklace or my favorite genuine not-taken-too-seriously iPad mirror photo that screams awkward but somehow isnât; she has it all in her arsenal, and itâs exhibited in her photos, even the ones with bad focus doesnât seem to amateur-y. Itâs a zip file full of gold sitting in your finder. This entire leak is known on the Internet as âThe Fappnening,â and I donât believe any guy could bring themselves to doing so to any of them unless itâs Emilyâs, mostly because of the amount of free porn on the Internet where it could resemble bodies of water on a world map if every inch of the net was mapped out like earth is. Theyâre that great. This all sounds immensely stupid and crazy, but I canât help it, Emilyâs nudes had me acting out as if she sent them to me, and I couldnât get them off my mind. As ethically horrific as it sounds, I even went as far as having several of them in a couple of my unlimited Safari tabs on my phone for easy access on the go, given Iâm not getting nudes sent to my Gmail these days. I find myself looking at them before bed, and randomly during the day. Theyâve put quite the dimer to my gradually rising flame of depression these last few weeks.Â
I know this is all very wrong in some vain, I canât help but think of that Kanye line, âhow can something so wrong make me feel so right?â I honestly feel better knowing Iâve seen Emily in all her perfection even though I shouldnât have, but can you really blame me, or anyone else, especially how she feels about the female body and nudity, and how stunning she is in them? I am waiting to see if she has a statement or comment regarding these photos and videos leaking, did she truly mean all that stuff she said about our culture and nudity, or will she hide behind a predictable robotic response of embarrassment and frustration. I hope she doesnât, I hope she brushed it off as carelessly as humanly possible and went along about her day upon learning of the news, though you canât really blame her for being upset, like others, for having her privacy ripped from her as if a shifty character at a party walked off with her purse when she accidentally leaves it at the bar while sheâs in the restroom when Blurred Lines comes on. I hope she isnât too upset and she looks at this, and the others as well, as a celebration for such a beautiful thing in a country where womenâs body isnât appreciated enough. Emilyâs nude photos are a work of goddesses, sheâs a modern day Aphrodite, the greek goddess of love, beauty and sexuality. Maybe she is and we donât know it right now; canât help but see Emily as the gorgeous face of love, beauty and sexuality, thatâs what sheâs conveyed in all her photo spreads and interviews and most likely in her upcoming movie roles too. Her nudes may have been leaked for all of us who donât deserve them to see at our leisure in an awful manner, but I feel sheâd keep her chin raised high in the air as she walks down the street feeling prouder than when someone glances at her as she walks by realizing heâs seen her fully nude, because the female body is a beautiful thing and sheâs comfortable in her skin. Her leaked photos wonât be considered regular nudes, but classic nude portraits â as it should be.
