Snake stories: Not the Nagina kind: Python pics started in the 80s


 

“Nastassja and the Serpent” ๐Ÿ“ธ: Richard Avedon @avedonfoundation - June 14th, 1981 for American @vogue Styled by editor #PollyMellen Bracelet by @patriciavonmusulin ๐Ÿค The boa constrictor ๐Ÿ was then 21 year old Nastassja’s idea.

Second pic, male model's homage and nod to the OG decades later. 
Below Jennifer Lawrence poses for Vanity Fair  I believe... 
 
Lying naked with a snake on top of a celebrity is a trending image that has cropped up since the early 1980s. 

Akshay Kumar braved the snake... but kept most of his clothes on. They should have asked him in the early 90s when Akki was open to stripping for the camera. His sexiest shoot is in shorts, unzipped, from the early 90s. After that, for the still camera, Akshay Kumar was shirtless but rarely pant-less. Maybe in unzipped shorts. But never briefs or speedos.  - That he reserved for films! Famously Akshay Kumar appears in brief-speedo-type swimsuits in several films. 

Actors posing naked or nearly naked for magazines was rare. 

Actors posting in underwear or swimsuits also happened on occasion - mostly by model turned actors. well, often, non-actors. just hotties. 

Now stars are shirtless on their own insta' or social media platforms. magazines are so tame and yawn...inducing. 

we miss the ol' days. when Mamta Kulkarni posed nearly topless for Stardust. when Salman Khan was hairy and unzipped for posters. when Sanjay Suri posed in speedos for Stardust annual cover. When Ranveer Singh took it almost all off for Paper magazine... Ok it happens but so infrequently.
