Clayton W. alerted us to this September’s issue of Harper’s Bazaar<\/em>. Paul Goude decided to photograph Naomi Campbell as if she were in Africa with animals.\u00a0 Clayton writes that it “…very nearly turns her into some sort of animal.”\u00a0 Below are some images from the photo shoot, courtesy of Womanist Musings<\/a> (via Feministing<\/a>):<\/p>\n

FINALLY! Bri A. sent in these photos of Bratz Nighty Nite dolls. Notice that the doll of color, Sasha, is in leopard print pajamas, but the others are not (a quick google search confirms the costume is race-specific; images here<\/a> and here<\/a>):<\/p>\n
