Default Un-Worthington - a 12 month countdown to the next terrible calendar

How ugly is this thing? If the design was any more primitive it would have to be chipped out on a slab of rock.

I actually like the cover.... That's all I've seen.

Didn't he used to live with her for awhile, or rent above her garage or something? I used to wonder why there were so many damned photo shoots of her, then read that somewhere and thought aha! That's why, she had a photographer living with her... Maybe that was the rent... Taking pics of her.

Ugly, no. Overpriced, yes.

[QUOTEAnd what's with the "It's Alive" cradle just sitting on the floor? Or the random chair? [/QUOTE]

I believe that was Stevie's idea. The 2009 cover shot is an outtake from the Rock A Little photo sessions. The original concept for Rock A Little was "We rock and roll all our lives, we start off rocking in the cradle, then move to mid life where we rock on our heels, then we move to a rocking chair at some point probably." The "random chair" is a rocking chair.
Granted the odd 2007/2008 calendar sucked, but the 2008 full year calendar was great. They are overpriced, but some great shots in this past years.

Well take another look at the cover shot again, in the background are the other photos used in the calendar.

Or maybe the photos were in exchange for sex?

Come on admit it you thought it but didn't want to say it.

Hmmm, that goes along with Lindsey's OOTC theme very nicely. Michele

I'd love to see a Stevie photo calendar - 365 day - developed by Sanne with description and background written by Michele, like a tour guide at a museum. And a coffee table book to go with it.

^^

That would be such a cool idea -- an online Stevie calendar of awesome photos! A photobucket account would do the trick ... would Sanne, Savage and our other photo collectors consider it?

Default love the cover shot

hey gold dust...i love the cover for this years calendar and we should all be greatful that herbie does this...u dont see any of stevies other celebrity artists ie neil preston etc making calendars bc they dont have the big collection of stevie in the 80s whereas herbie does...herbie did live with stevie and has said that a lot of these pics were taken very late at night in the house...not a studio at all...they used what props were there or they bought for an album...also everyone was doing drugs in the day but i guarantee stevie was prob handing them out to her friends as her stash was enormous...give the guy a break...and i also take exception to the bs crap of why chris left the band...she left bc mr perfect criticized her playing during the dance...she said that's it...i don't need this ****...gonezo...and she wont come back period...its my thought that if they do wembley stadium in 2010 she may do that show but that's it...and they'd have a hard time talking her into that one...i sure hope u look at the calendar with fresh eyes bc this could very well be the last u see...i for one am buying as many as i can get...pat

I'm only kidding about HW being the reason Christine left. The sarcastic, rolling eyes smiley.
If I had my choice of photographer, I'd love to see David LaChapelle's out-takes from the two shoots he did with her.
