The name Suzi Quatro might not ring many bells with her modern day musical counterparts, but the Seventies glam rocker has plenty to say about them in her new book.
In an extract from her autobiography ‘Unzipped’ published in the
Daily Mail
, Quatro, now 62 and on tour in Europe, says today’s female pop stars dress like ‘sex objects’ and their music videos are like soft porn’.
“It’s not that the women in today’s pop and rock world are being treated like sex objects; it’s that they are choosing to do it to themselves, which is strange to me.”
Anyone of a ‘certain age’ will remember mullet-haired Suzi in her skintight leather jumpsuits as a major sex symbol of her day. But Quatro maintains that hers was a more demure and less blatantly sexualised appeal.

“I may have been sexy, but I was covered up total. There was something left to the imagination… I refused to wear makeup on TV, I wanted my music to be heard.”
“I haven’t talked to any young artists for a long time. But if we did sit down I’d definitely tell them my viewpoint.
“If it was Lady Gaga, I’d say, ‘You’re obviously very talented and you’ve obviously got the goods… what the hell are you doing with your image? How can anyone take you serious?’”
Fair point, Suzi, but for us it’s more an issue with meat-based lingerie than lingerie per se.

Anyway, sexy is as sexy does: Rihanna would look hot in a paper bag, while – although undoubtedly a fashion ‘maverick’ – all the ripped fishnets and bra-tops in Soho won’t make Lady Gaga a ‘sex symbol’.
And if anyone should understand that, it’s the woman who became a sex symbol
despite
the deadly man-repelling triumvirate of leather jumpsuits, mullet hair and no make-up.

Australian supermodel Miranda Kerr said that feeling good starts in wearing the right undergarments.
People often see the Aussie beauty dressed impeccably whether she is on the runway or off to a stroll on the streets of NYC. However, the model revealed that her secret lies on choosing the right clothes according to her body type. Moreover, she only wears the clothes that she feels good in.
Miranda told stylecaster.com, “Well, I’m a tactile person, so whatever I wear has to feel good – and it has to fit your body correctly. I really believe in dressing to your body type, and to be quite honest with you, I’m all about underwear. I feel like putting on sexy underwear underneath your clothes is where it starts.”
Kerr suggests going all out when it comes to underwear and not settling for plain or boring styles. Even if you have nothing special planned during the day, the model claims wearing a garter or stockings will add “a little bit of mystery” to your look.
She also revealed that after she picked her undergarments, the 29-year-old model choose her shoes next. “I ask myself, ‘what shoes am I in the mood for today’? Then I pick my outfit based on that. If I’m revealing my legs, I’ll cover the top part. If I’m revealing the top part, I’ll cover the legs a little bit – just to keep it classy,” she said.
Recently, Miranda Kerr showed off some sexy Victoria’s Secret gear at the reopening of NYC’s flagship Herald Square store bright and early this morning. She posed with fellow Angels Candice Swanepoel, Lily Aldridge, and Adriana Lima at the special event timed to kick off the holidays.
The angels met reunite after they walked the glittered catwalk earlier this month at the 2012 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. The show will be broadcasted on December 4 on CBS.
