Melania Trump defended her n*de modeling pictures in her latest promotional video for her forth coming memoir, comparing them to the work of ‘master artists’.
‘Why do I stand proudly behind my n*de modeling work?,’ she says in the 45 second video posted to her social media accounts on Wednesday morning.
‘The more pressing question is, why has the media chosen to scrutinize my celebration of the human forum in a fashion photo shoot? Are we no longer able to appreciate the beauty of the human body?’
The video is just a voice-over of the former first lady. And while she doesn’t show any nude photos of herself, she does use photos of famous pieces of art, such as Michelangelo’s statue of David, in the video.
‘Throughout history, master artists have revered the human shape, evoking profound emotions and admiration. We should honor our bodies and embrace the timeless tradition of using art as a powerful means of self expression,’ she says.
It marks the fourth video Melania Trump has posted to her social media accounts ahead of her memoir’s launch on October 1. It’s been an unusual marketing strategy to get people to pre-order her book.
