Elisabeth Hasselbeck to Rielle Hunter: Posing pantyless with Kermit is 'perverse'

rielle-hunter-gq.jpgJohn Edwards' mistress Rielle Hunter is said to be repulsed by the racy shots of her in the April issue of GQ.

She's not the only one. About the photo of Rielle without pants on, sitting on a bed with stuffed Muppets, "The View" cohost Elisabeth Hasselbeck railed, "If you're gonna involve Kermit, Barney and Dora, put your pants on! It's borderline perverse!"



Hunter -- who had an affair and a child with former vice presidential candidate John Edwards -- called Barbara Walters in tears about the sexy shots. She told Barbara that she thought GQ photog Mark Seliger would've used some of the "beautiful headshots" he took of her.

Instead, mean old GQ used racy shots of her without pants as she lounged next to stuffed animals and one of her laying down on a bed with her shirt pulled up to show off her bare belly and her sweatpants untied.

The nerve!

"Did she say she thought they would be headshots?" GQ reporter Lisa DePaulo who interviewed Rielle for the magazine, asked incredulously on ABC's Good Morning America Tuesday.

"Rielle is a smart woman," DePaulo added. "She knows what she wore and what she was doing in the photo shoot."

To make their point, GQ also released a video of the shoot to "GMA" today and at one point the videographer asks Hunter, "You want to take a look at this?"

And she looks at the image on the monitor and voices no complaints.

Gosh, you don't think she's lying about being repulsed by the photos and that she knew exactly what she was doing, do you?

This awful woman and "Johnny" Edwards are nothing but trash. They deserve each other. Posing sexily on her daughter's bed is not only inappropriate, but sick and perverted and in utter bad taste. As a mother of a 3-year-old son, I was appalled and sickened. Why didn't this woman at least use her OWN bed instead of her daughter's? And WHY pose suggestively with children's toys?? That is VERY DISTURBING. And then posing suggestively HOLDING HER DAUGHTER? THIS IS ONE TRASHY HO who doesn't care about her daughter or anybody else except herself. She takes an innocent child and uses her as a prop for a sexy photo? It's so obvious--the bare belly, the untied sweat pants, the come-hither look on Hunter's face as she hold that sweet, innocent baby girl? SICK SICK SICK! She doesn't deserve to be a mother! If she was complaining about all the "bad stuff" written about her, she's just generated more with this self-serving, selfish, self-absorbed article in GQ detailing her affair with that scumbag John Edwards. She constantly blames Elizabeth Edwards for everything and refuses to acknowledge her own accountability as well as Edwards'. In the article, she excuses her affair by proclaiming that their love nullified any aspect of cheating with a married man. This stupid bimbo claims how John Edwards never lied to her, when that SOB is the BIGGEST LIAR on the planet--you think he's gonna stop lying because of *YOU*? Edwards knew how stupid Rielle is, and constantly filled her head with LIES about his marriage with Elizabeth, blaming his infidelity on her, which is the oldest trick in the book that a lying philanderer will tell his mistress. It's always the wife's fault. Just like Tiger Woods telling his mistresses that his marriage was a sham only for publicity, that she was cold, etc., John Edwards lies and says the same and STUPID Rielle believes it. And Edwards CHEATS on his wife while she is going thru chemo for breast cancer! How COLD and HEARTLESS is that??? Are there any words that can describe these two lying, sleazy trash scumbags that would appropriately describe their actions? No, I think not. Every time I talk about this, I'm rendered speechless at the sheer awfulness, the sheer tawdriness of it all. I put myself in Elizabeth's place and I can't talk--all I want to do is weep for her. I am glad she is finally divorcing this fetid piece of poop. Rielle Hunter is no better, and this article and photos only confirms what an utter piece of stinky flotsam she is. A true bottom dweller who is not at all sorry for what she did.
The victims in all of this are Elizabeth Edwards, her children, and little Quinn. And Rielle now claims to be upset over the photos? PUL-LEASE. She's a videographer and knows about photography & creating images--she knew exactly what she was doing and OK'd everything GQ did. She is so egotistical and STUPID that she didn't think her sick, perverted photos would cause such an outcry so now she tries to backpedal and whine to Barbara Walters about how she thoughts it was only going to be headshots. So now she not only shows how much of a LIAR Edwards is, but how much of a LIAR she is. I hope the media STOPS COVERING THIS FILTHY TRASH and JOHN-THE-MAN-HO-EDWARDS because we, the public DO NOT need any further coverage of their sick, sordid affair. Allowing this woman a platform to tell her sick story is a truly low point in American journalism. And John Edwards, who was running for president at one time--THANK GOD HE WILL NEVER, EVER BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

Rielle should be happy with the photos--they retouched them nicely, i've never seen her look so good!

She's pantsless. She's probably not pantyless.

idk Mike K., but i think i see some pubes in there....
