The latest installment of VBS.tv's behind-the-scenes look at photographer Richard Kern's working methods poses a provocative question: "What is British, has four legs, four boobs, is best friends, and is super cute?" We won't spoil the suspense by revealing the answer ourselves, but it does involve Gina and Leah demonstrating their mutual affection for each other (and each other's breasts) in all sorts of interesting ways, and it isn't hard to guess what develops when they get together to celebrate their special relationship for Kern's camera. But maybe you should watch the video yourselves to make sure you don't miss anything. (Who ever said that Friendster is past its prime anyway?)

Soft-spoken media darling and pinup photographer Dave Naz will greet guests at a reception for his new exhibit, "Candids", at the Todd/Browning Gallery in Hollywood this coming Saturday.

We are big fans of Naz' photography, which is bright, sexy, and accessible, but we would be lying if we didn't say we weren't intrigued at the prospect of catering provided by girlfriend Ashley Blue. Maybe she'll make some Attention Whore d'ouevres?

Oh Malph, you still got it. - GP

Mad genius Spencer Tunick made history or something this past weekend when he photographed 18,000 people in the center of Mexico City—every single one of them naked as the day they were born. It'd probably count as some kind of record (and that's not even counting the naked Frida Kahlo event that followed the shoot) if anyone bothered to keep track of such things, but judging by the news photos that are now fanning out across the web, there seems to be a law of diminishing returns when it comes to gathering flesh in mass quantities. So many people in the shot makes it harder to see the naughty bits, which is probably why it's easier to get 18,000 people naked than one. On the other hand ... holy cow, that's a lot of naked people! Maybe one of these days we'll find a way to get ourselves into the middle of one these oceans of skin (there's always Amsterdam) and see what it's really like to be around all that flesh. Unfortunately, like most bloggers we're allergic to sunlight, so we'll just have to keep playing our current role of long-distance voyeur for now.

Boredom makes NYC shutterbug and bon vivant Igor do a lot of crazy things, like play fake online role playing games and go see the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie against his better judgement. Fortunately, it also makes him prowl the nightclubs of New York City and ask cute girls to lift up their shirts for his Polaroid Project, which he's finally giving us all a chance to ogle for ourselves: "I started these Polaroids when I was 19. I have over 60 different girls and over 100 photos. Unfortunately most of these will never be seen by anyone but me. Luckily some of the girls will let me show this work for the first time ever." We have a feeling you'll be seeing a lot more of his shots of the sexy goings-on in the downtown demimonde here on Fleshbot, but for now those Polaroids (not to mention his cherry-picked alt girl babelog) will give you a good idea what his sensibility is all about. Hopefully your morning just got a little less boring.

If you're like us, your office could probably use some new decorating for spring. And maybe you also need a little help breaking the ice when it comes to telling people about certain fetishes of yours. So why not solve both problems at once with one of photographer Markus M. Mey's inspirational posters? His shots of women in high heels crushing fish would look great hanging above the water cooler—and what better conversation starter for that cutie in the black pumps you've been wanting to ask out and have step on your throat? Sure beats any of those hokey inspirational posters you see in the back of a Sky Mall catalogue.

South African-born film producer and photographer Tobie Openshaw's fascinating "Betelnut Beauties" project explores the curious (and curiously sexy) world of Taiwan's betelnut girls (Bin Lang Xi Hsi), paid models who fall somewhere between race queens and pink box workers in the list of reasons why life in parts of Asia is so much more interesting than it is in the West: "They sit in brightly-decorated glass booths wearing skimpy outfits, and sell cigarettes, drinks and betelnut to passing drivers. It's a controversial trade but not actually illegal. The question of whether the girls are exploited is open to debate—certainly their own perception is mostly that they are doing a job like any other, and the less they choose to wear, the more they sell."
