Tahitian Treat

Under normal circumstances, I would leave tracking down revealing photographs up to those who do it best. However, I have had several requests to find the controversial photos of Francesca Willis, model and student at Sydney's "most exclusive co-educational school," Barker College.

While my Chicken Wild Rice soup for New Recipe Tuesday simmers, I'll fill the rest of the world in on the story. Francesca, who up until recently had a Blog entitled Tahitian Temptress, posted a few naughty photos of herself, in her school uniform. Apparently the photos were sent out in emails, reaching far corners of the world. After said photographs were discovered by Barker College officials, she was suspended from school.

In the meantime, "respected" newspaper, The Sydney Morning Herald, spread the word further, by publishing one of the photos on July 4th. While the Herald makes a point of knocking tabloid journalism, they felt that posting the story and photo were appropriate. They also made suggestions that the remainder of the photos were even more scandalous, and did not post Ms. Willis' face (only her voluptuous mammories).



I was able to track down the remainder of the photos, and and a shot of our beautiful temptress' face. While they are certainly Lohan worthy, they are definitely not as malicious or explicit as the Herald made out. Most are only of Fran hanging out with friends, while one is a bit, well, titillating.

In her statement, Fran says:

I got suspended from school on Thursday - not so smart but hey when you f--- up you got to deal with the consequences don't you . . . pity this kind of shit only ever seems to happen to me . . . anyway all I did was take a photo of myself in my school uniform in what the school called 'a compromising position' - big deal I was showing my bra, having a bit of fun . .


How long until FHM and Ralph line up with the paychecks? My guess is they are already knocking.
