This was probably posted at some time before, considering the magazine was released in October of 2002. But we just came across this magazine at a garage sale over the weekend, and it got us so excited that I had to post.
Lazarus gets credit for finding this one, as I happened to browse right past it.
In the October 2002 edition of Spin magazine, they have an article on page 32 titled "Pedi-Philes?". At the top of the article, they have three small nearly identical pictures of Geri Halliwell performing in concert barefoot (not nearly close enough or large enough to get a good view of her feet, though). The article goes on to say:
"J-Lo's big ol' booty doesn't even turn heads among one group of music fans: celebrity-foot fetishists. Sites such as starfeet.com and divinefeet.com attract hundreds of thousands of visitors every month by posting the latest photos - usually close-ups from magazine shots and movie stills. Viewers can pour over images, peruse foot-fan fiction, and debate such topics as long toes versus short toes, pedicured versus dirty, and which celeb has the ugliest dogs. ("I only hope that when Britney Spears takes her shirt off, she has the decency to throw it over her hideous feet," one posts on the Mouse Pad.) Lord Lucan, the Australian webmaster behind International Celebrity Feet (the largest site, with 300,000 visitors a month, at lordlucan.b-h-e.com), says Spears, Shakira, Kylie Minogue, Christina Aguilera, and Geri Halliwell possess the most sought-after pop-star hocks. "It's very flattering," Halliwell says, "but I always thought my feet were quite ugly."
Anyway, I thought it was VERY cool to see Mouse Pad get a mention. A neat little unexpected find, to say the least. Again, sorry if this is a repost!
