Posh Spice Poses Nude for AIDS Charity

Posh Spice, Kate Moss, and several other celebrities have posed nude, save for shoes and jewelry, to raise money for AIDS research. Because, after all, they have no money to donate.

GOSH! Posh poses in nude to raise cash for Elton charity book (Mirror)

STARK but beautiful – this naked image of Posh is one we’ve never seen before…or are ever likely to see again. She strips off for a glossy new book, 4 Inches – a reference to the size of the models’ stiletto heels – to raise money for Sir Elton John’s Aids charity.

Posh and other celebrities, including the Duchess of York, Kate Moss, Rachel Hunter and Geri Halliwell, agreed to be photographed nude – except for a pair of Jimmy Choos and Cartier jewellery. And, especially in Victoria’s case, the result is stunning. For once she is actually posing, as opposed to just pouting. She looks incredibly natural and, even better, she seems to be having fun. It’s a fascinating shot that shows a slightly cheeky side to her personality, but it’s also rather demure. The lighting is soft, smoothing away her normally glossy, showbiz edges to reveal a deeply attractive young woman in the prime of her life.

Another black and white shot of Kate Moss is equally impressive – capturing her effortless cool. Despite being incredibly sexy, she always manages to make it look as if she isn’t trying too hard. The snap shows why she remains at the top of her profession. It screams Kate Moss, Supermodel.

Anything for a good cause, I guess.

Update: The book just came out today. I confidently predict photo scans will be available on the Internet within 24 hours.
