Fake teenagers Cory Monteith and Lea Michele bounced back from their widely criticized soft-core GQ photo shoot with a self-consciously wholesome one for Teen Vogue. The slutty/sweet divide is dangerous for the stars of tween TV shows. Let us demonstrate.
Seeing these two photo shoots side-by-side is like an anthropological study in the tween media art of slutty vs. sweet. The former must never occur (especially not in the vicinity of Miley Cyrus!), lest America's youth be forever smirched. The latter, however, is welcome, as long as the square inches of cleavage displayed stays below a certain threshold.
