Michelle Trachtenberg's Maxim cover: Child pageant queen or '80s porn star?
Don't get us wrong. We love Michelle Trachtenberg. We love her from "Buffy," we love her from "Gossip Girl" and we especially love her from "The Adventures of Pete & Pete."
So know that it comes from a place of genuine respect and affection when we say that her cover shoot for the March issue of Maxim looks like an ill-fated Glamour Shots session someone just recovered from time capsule buried in 1987.
The makeup, the eyes, the hair and the obvious airbrushing all take a way from the natural beauty of the 'berg. Yes? Yes.

They took a really pretty girl and made her look so unspecial. And those bras look like they came out of a Kmart 3 for $10 bargain bin.
Sorry guys, you lost me on this one...Michelle looks fantastic on the cover!
I have to agree with Shannon-Michelle looks awesome
Maybe it's because she may be all grown up but she still looks about 14.
The airbrushing is horrible! I also agree that she still looks about 12-14 years old!
Absolutely nothing wrong with those photos. She looks great.
I like that cover.
She can get in front of my camera anytime she wants. %-)
