If you didn’t see it, Emily Ratajkowski posed bare-chested for Harper’s Bazaar, and professional stirrer Piers Morgan has some opinions.
The 25-year-old actress was photographed by Mona Kuhn for the glossy’s August issue as Lady Godiva, the English figure who famously rode a horse through the historic city of Coventry while nude. The spread is accompanied by an interview written by The Beauty Myth author and renowned feminist writer Naomi Wolf.
For the @harpersbazaarus Instagram account, Ratajkowski captioned a photo of herself dressed as Lady Godiva. “I have always admired Naomi Wolf. The concepts she advanced in Promiscuities and The Beauty Myth influenced the attitudes I hold now.
Why does Morgan care then? He does, but that’s an excellent question. He tweeted about the photograph, saying, “Emily Ratajkowski posing FULLY-CLOTHED would be a greater news story.”
The former news anchor responded to a fellow tweeter who took issue with his statement by saying, “My only issue is Ms Ratajkowski’s claim that her stripping is in the interest of feminism. It’s done for financial gain.
Thanks, but I don’t need clothes as much as you do, Piers Morgan, wrote Ratajkowski in a direct reply. She also shared a screenshot from the article, which acts as its own response:
In the meantime, Morgan has kept up his winning strategy of unrepentantly tweeting more incendiary comments.
