Glee star Dianna Agron has stood up for her recent photoshoot for GQ magazine.
The actress who plays cheerleader Quinn Fabray in the hit series, came under serious scrutiny this week when raunchy pictures were released of herself and Glee co-stars Lea Michele and Cory Monteith, for the new issue of GQ magazine.
The sexy new spread shows the two girls dressed up in saucy school-girl outfits while caressing their male co-star. The trio were replicating the love triangle that's prevalent on the show by the Parent's Television Council have said the photos are "hyper-sexualised" and "near-pornographic".
Although the shows producers have yet to comment Dianna took to her blog to defend the shoot:
"If you are hurt or these photos make you uncomfortable, it was never our intention...And if your 8-year-old has a copy of our GQ cover in hand, again I am sorry. But I would have to ask, how on Earth did it get there?"
Although Dianna goes on to say that the actors were just "pushing the envelope" like stars of other top shows (most notably True Blood) she did also admit that she wasn't 100% sure about the pictures:
"I am 24-years-old. I have been a pretty tame and easy-going girl all my life. Nobody is perfect, and these photos do not represent who I am... For GQ, they asked us to play heightened versions of our school characters. A 'Hit Me Baby One More Time' version. At the time it wasn't my idea, but I did not walk away... I am only myself, I can only be me."
GQ themselves have also come out in defense of the stars saying that parents need to figure out reality from fiction, as all the 'school kids' in the show are really in their late 20's.
I think the 'Parents Council' need to calm down, it's not as if this went on in the actual show itself! One thing's for sure Lea Michele looks like she was loving the attention doesn't she??
