Posh faces Muslim backlash over sexy Turkish vogue cover
July 29th, 2010 - 4:20 pm ICT by ANI
London, July 29 (ANI): Victoria Beckham’s sexy photoshoot for Turkish Vogue has angered Islamic fundamentalists.
The 36-year-old former Spice Girl is seen on the cover holding a cocktail glass, wearing a mini-skirt with her legs spread.
The glossy magazine also has a string of suggestive pictures inside.
And now, Muslim hardliners have called for the magazine to be boycotted because her “western decadence” is a bad influence.
Locals in the hard-line Fatih district of Istanbul slammed the shots.
“We believe women should not flaunt their bodies in public. It’s what we believe as Muslims,” the Daily Star quoted Barber Duran Kaya, 45, as saying.
“I would not be comfortable if my wife or daughters dressed like it,” he added. (ANI)
