I like Keri's music, but I hate that throughout her career she always acts like she's so above anything slightly sexualized, yet she's more hypersexualized than the majority of female artists today.
What was up with your little Twitter from our photo shoot? [Ed.—“COMPLEX mag cover shoot! Not quite AS sexy as you’ve all been seeing from others (hehe)...but sexy nonetheless. My way!”] Y’all misinterpreted that! I wasn’t talking about your magazine. I wasn’t dissing you guys. I was talking about other artists being butt-ass naked.
That seems to be pressing on your mind, what your contemporaries are doing and wearing…or not wearing.
Keri Hilson: Yeah! I don’t want to be oversexed! I don’t want to sell sex, I want to sell music. I want to inspire others, I don’t want to be one of those people who’s always throwing their body at the masses. What good does that do? Besides sell records. Men don’t buy records, anyway. These pictures are Photoshopped, they’re airbrushed. If anything, it’s just the opposite for me, where women are my fans.
So we’re never going to see a Keri Hilson sex tape, then? Or Playboy, or any of that. Nah. If I do something naked, it’ll be for Allure’s skin-cancer benefit auction or something like that—it would be to help some cause other than my record sales.
but she kinda looks like an alien.
I thought that too. I think it's her neck and head position.
I posted this in the NBA album thread.
