What does Brooke Shield thinks?
Culture Buzz Spiritual America is a photo of a photo of a 10-year-old Brooke Shields that has just been removed from the Tate Modern Gallery in London. Because people think it is child pornography. My initial reaction is stop being such a bunch of prudes, everybody, but also I'm very glad that I don't have to defend the artwork professionally. 'Cuz, like, clearly there are issues here.

What does Brooke Shield thinks?
I have to agree this isn't any more exploitative than those horribly creepy child beauty pageants; just add a “talent show” pretense plus some little miss stripper costumes. Both are the overt sexualization of children, and this is “controversial” simply because it doesn't pretend to be something else.
If…….. the photographer just added some champagne, a Quaalude, and a rich film director; the picture could hang in the Louvre.
Give the pic to the French. They are better at making excuses for pervs who lust after naked children.
I would say that photo is overtly sexual. I'm not normally a prude, but I think this pushes the limits of legal.

Nice to see you. Why don't you have a seat over there?
Everyone just take a good look at the Websters definitions of “Child” and “Pornography”…. that should probably settle it.
Although it's not overtly sexual, I'd say it's pornographic in much the same way that child beauty pageants are.
Hold on, can we see an IMDB page for the photographer? If he's got an Oscar he might be in the clear on this one.
Her mother sold her out as a sex symbol from a very young age. Equally disturbing were the films “Pretty Baby” (in which she play a 12 year old whore), “Blue Lagoon” (I actually saw a more tasteful version of the film without the nudity), and “Endless Love” (unwatchable). All pre-18

Buzzfeed is promoting Child Pornography? Really guy, have some class!
Maybe people think its child pornography because it is.
Photoshop some crappy socks on the photo and you'd have an American Apparel ad.
Does anyone out there really want to see this photo? Ewww.
Maybe they can use it in a Latisse ad.
