Popular British pop combo Girls Aloud are about to premiere their new video (tonight, 11:05, Channel 4 UK), and it looks like it's going to be another kinky corker. The girls have already shown how good they look in latex with their No No No promo, and this time they slip into black and clear PVC for a Barbarella-esque look. I'll post the video separately when a HQ version appears. Until then, you can watch a low quality preview on the forums here.
Thanks to catsuit fan for the link to some of the images below.
More Watchmen today, this time featuring a latex-clad Malin Akerman as Silk Spectre. A couple of these shots have featured on the forums, but I believe these are of higher quality.
If you look closely at the costume, you can see that Malin is actually wearing a latex corset over her bodysuit. Or is it just me who looks closely at these things? ;)
And finally a reproduction of the original promo art showing Silk Spectre:
After years of doubt, arguably the best comic book - sorry, 'graphic novel' - ever written is finally getting a well-deserved cinematic outing. It's obvious from the phenomenaltrailer that 300-director Zack Snyder, his cinematographer and hundreds of behind-the-scenes CG gurus can deliver the visuals, but it's the great casting that caught my eye. These characters literally look as if they've stepped out of the Watchmen pages.
We've already seen sexy Malin Ackerman as modern day Silk Spectre on here (love the latex, Malin), but Robert Rodriguez regular Carla Gugino also deserves a mention. She plays Sally Jupiter, the original incarnation of Silk Spectre and if these promo images are anything to go by, the vintage costumes are going to be a sight to behold!
Thanks go out to Solitaire for forwarding on these images.
As if a movie adaptation of the most accomplished comic books of all time wasn't enough, we get a main character clothed in latex throughout. Bonus!
The film is, of course, Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen, and the superheroine is Silk Spectre, played by Malin Akerman.
Watchmen is directed by Zack Snyder, who followed up the excellent Dawn of the Dead remake with 300, a film that truly felt like a graphic novel brought to life, but was possibly too literal for its own good. Let's hope Watchmen proves to be as good as its source material and this promising initial trailer suggests.
For those of you who want to see more of Malin (and who wouldn't!), there's an HQ picture of her in the same outfit on the forums here.
Additionally, HQ versions of the same trailer can be found here.
Thanks to Claudia for sending in these images from a recent ad campaign. I demand a return to the good old days when Angela, Eva, Claudia et al were queens of the magazine cover!
Update April 17th 2008: thanks to bbrom00 who points out that the movie has skipped theatre distribution and is being released to DVD next month in the States. See here for more info.
I found this behind the scenes preview of the kinky drama Walk All Over Me and there's enough additional footage to warrant a viewing even if you caught the trailer in my previous post.
I believe the makers have found a distribution partner for the States, so you lucky US moviegoers will be able to see PVC-clad Tricia and Leelee strut their stuff later this year. As for the rest of us, well, I'm crossing my fingers for a quick DVD release in the UK so I can capture some stills :)
[Updated March 21 2008 - added second image, thanks to Andy]
Janet Jackson has been pushing fetish into the mainstream for years: witness the album art from her previous CD, the video for What's It Gonna Be with Busta Rhymes and the costume (and nipple decoration) she wore for the notorious Super Bowl duet with Justin Timberlake. She continues this trend with a provocative magazine cover, kindly sent in by Jeff.
For some reason, one of the images I uploaded didn't appear on yesterday's entry, so I've added it to the post. For those who already have the other images, here it is:
Ever adept at reinvention, Kylie Minogue's latest look is definitely one I think I approve of. Here she is performing at the Nobel Peace Prize shindig. I trust Al Gore is tutting in the background at the massive 'carbon footprint' of the whole thing ;)
