A parents group is blasting a super-hot GQ photo spread involving three Glee cast members as "bordering on pedophilia." Though castmates Dianna Agron, Cory Monteith, and Lea Michele are all in their 20s, they play high school characters in the popular TV musical series. Agron poses in a high school cheerleading outfit, and Michele slinks up to a locker licking a lollipop in the "Glee Gone Wild" feature. “It is disturbing that GQ, which is explicitly written for adult men, is sexualizing the actresses who play high school-aged characters," says a statement from the Parents Television Council.
"Sadly, this is just the latest example of the overt sexualization of young girls in entertainment." GQ editor-in-chief Jim Nelson shot back: "The Parents Television Council must not be watching much TV these days and should learn to divide reality from fantasy. As often happens in Hollywood, these 'kids' are in their 20s. I think they're old enough to do what they want."
