  2. That's one of the best pictures I have ever seen of her. It's a damn shame it was not included in the SEX book. I don't know why it's an outtake. It should have been in the actual book - it's better than a lot of the pics that were actually in the book!

    Does anyone know where this pic was published? In what magazines, books, etc.? I want to own this photo but don't know where to find it. I have only seen it online...

  3. All those beach pics were incredibly sexy. Those, and the public nudity pics (pizza anyone?) were the best part of the book and classic Madonna.

  5. Nick, I recall seeing this in Rolling Stone back when SEX was released. But it was a two page spread and the fold was in the middle of the picture. I remember seeing it in my dentist's office. LOL. I wish I would have taken it. It's my favorite picture too. And it definitely should have been in the book.

  6. Thank you to onacover and angel...I am going to look for it on ebay and get one!

    I have seen several outtakes from the SEX book. I also love the outtake from the 1993 official calendar with this "beach look"...she has her head in the air by the ocean with her eyes closed...anyone know which one I'm talking about? Another great pic.

  9. This came out before the book and I really love it! I used it in a slide presentation to show sexuality in popular culture when I was an art student back in '92. Everyone was paying attention. LOL (I had to photograph it from the Rolling Stone magazine, then I sent it out and made a slide out of it. Oh the things we used to do in '92. LOL)

  10. That's a great story, Alec. It was a different world back then.... I had recently graduated high school and was working part time in the mail room for an insurance company back then. I remember my boss brought a copy to work and a group of fellow employees were all looking at it in the break room. She had bought 2 copies -- one to look at and one that she wasn't going to take out of the package to keep as a collector's item.

    I have a feeling that the Rollingstone issue with this picture is going to show up on Pud's blog very soon.... (crossing fingers!)
