The Famous Nude Pregnancy Pose: Still a Shocker?

Jessica Simpson is a celebrity and lets face it the world wants to see and know what is going on with celebrities lives whether it be pregnancy, divorce ect. It's a special time being pregnant and the picture is beautiful of her. We can't compare this type of photo to a "naked" photo that you would find in an adult type of magazine. I think it's great and agree with keeganandjacksmommy, bridgetem, and acortez18 on this one.

its a fine picture. she is covering more of her body with her arms than most bikinis at the beach do and other regular every day clothes cover. pregnancy is a wonderful thing. it can be quite hard on the womans body though. so why not let her celebrate it.

People have to understand that the female form does not equal pornography, pregnant or not. Our bodies are beautiful! This is a beautiful pic and I hope celebs for years to come do this as well!

It is a beautiful picture, but must she put it on the cover of a magazine? Would she pose the same way if she wasn't pregnant? Doubtful. So why does she feel the need to do so while pregnant? I agree with heavenly38, in that I feel she should keep the pictures at home to share with her family and closest loved ones, not the entire world.

I love it! Wish I was brave enough to do the same thing ;) ... Having a baby is a beautiful thing, and so is the naked body...there should be a way to teach are kids that there is nothing wrong with their bodies, but at the same time - we don't want to run around naked everywhere...does any of that make sense ... sometimes it's just hard to get my thoughts across....

Take the pics. fine, but keep them between you and your family. I'm tired of my kids seeing 1/2 naked/naked (think Maxim) people on covers of mags. Nudity, even "covered" like this I feel is innapropriate to be on display in public, but then so are a lot of things. In my opinion I think these mags should be covered and treated just as it is "naked women on the front of mags."

I honestly don't think it is all that shocking. It's been done so many times, and it's not in a sexual manner. It's revealing, but she is showing off her baby belly, not her boobs :)

There are dresses that are more revealing than this. She is showing the world a beautiful thing. It is nothing to be ashamed of. I approve

It's a beautiful thing but I don't need to see it

I think Jessica looks AMAZING!! I don't think it's to much for news stands these days!! Also I like how she has gained a healthy amt of weight to ensure a healthy baby unlike some celeb moms who are skin and bones!!

I think it's beautiful. But seeing her on TV while she was pregnant makes me think they did a lot of air brushing! She gained a lot of weight. Which makes me feel good! Even celebrities can gain too much weight. It makes them more "real".

what work those artists must have done to get that hair looking the way it does!

i think it is a beautiful picture. pregnancy is a beautiful thing. and lets be honest - do you or your child really see more in this picture than you would at the beach? her hands and arms cover more than most bikinis do!
