Yahoo Lifestyle People Have A Lot Of Things To Say About Melania Trump's Comments About Her Nude Photos
Melania Trump has a new book coming out.
The former First Lady has been trying to drum up press for it by tweeting random things and excerpts from it.
A couple of weeks ago, her picture celebrating NYC, a city her husband calls "dirty" and "crime-ridden," went viral.
New York City captivated my heart the moment I arrived, 28 years ago today. This electrifying town isn't just my home; it's a colorful canvas where dreams come alive. New York’s iconic skyline and vibrant culture inspire me every day. pic.twitter.com/0Yd2mdGoH6

According to the NY Post, Melania has posed nude twice. Once in 1995 for a French adult magazine and the other time in 2000 on Donald Trump's private plane for British GQ.

"Why do I stand proudly behind my nude modeling pictures?" she asks. "The more pressing question is why has the media chosen to scrutinize my celebration of the human form in a fashion photo shoot."
"Are we no longer able to appreciate the beauty of the human body?" she continues. "Throughout history, master artists have revered the human shape, evoking profound emotions and admiration. We should honor our bodies and embrace the timeless tradition of using art as a powerful means of self-expression."
People have a lot of feelings about this one!

Then there are the people who are pointing out the hypocrisy of it all.
bless your heart, but it's your own party that has issues with nudity, sexuality and art. Remember Paris 2024 Olympics? https://t.co/YIdPZBFTGX

"Melania, have you been paying attention to the Republican Party and how they view nude art? See what Ron DeSantis is doing to ban it in schools!" this person said.
