The Dixie Chicks, Emily Robison, left, Natalie Maines, center, and Martie Maguire, say they are posing nude to make a point.

NEW YORK - The Dixie Chicks appear nude on the cover of a weekly showbiz magazine in a defiant answer to a backlash over their opposition to the war in Iraq.

I was in a colegues place of business, there was this woman who was "butch" and she had blixie chix pictures posted right next to her WNBA schedule. Anther fan base "dedicated" to women.

I'm not sure if I should be impressed or disturbed that you noticed this.

[Martin Tell]

I think that some series digital alterations ...

Yeah. It's hugh!

[wardaddy]

What...no Indigo Girls?

Ohhhh I just have to rant about this!!! If I see this garbage at the store I am going to make a point to tell the manager to put this issue behind the counter where it can't be seen by kids! Dixie Chicks or not, magazines with covers like this need to be in X-rated protective packaging. If I see it while standing in line at the grocery I will turn it around so the back cover is displayed. I am sick to death of seeing this kind of filth out in the open where people like me don't have a choice of viewing it or not! If I had kids I would not feel comfortable taking them inside a grocery store where they could see this crap. Put this issue behind the counter with the Playboys and the Hustlers! GRRRRRR!

Nice Tatoos

Ain't NO way that is Natalie Maines' body on the EW cover.

"That ain't chunky chicks body."

That ain't any of their bodies. It's a cartoon. I don't suppose anyone wanted to see their actual bodies.

I only saw one side in passing. (I was picking up a file) Her lyfestyle was apparent. Of course I might be wrong but I seriously doubt it. For homosexual lurkers, she did hand the file in a most professional manner without reference to her lifestyle choice. (sarcasm off)

[longtermmemmory]

Good point. This is actually MORE revealing than the covers of a playboy. Truthfully more publicity is good for the chix and the magazine. Our energies are better served setting up protests infront of concerts and staying away from lipton.

[legman]

thinks Jesus would tell Nat to keep her clothes on.....

LOL.

I wish I had thought to say that.

[Saundra Duffy]

This has to be a joke.

[FITZ]

Maybe not----- clothes seem to make her look so much heavier ----she looks like a size 18 with clothes and a size 12 without them.

[wordsofearnest]

Hell that ain't Natalie Mains face on that cover.

[The Wizard]

what are they, whores who sing?

[lainie]

Comment #2 and #3 were removed.. they were the offending photo. What, too porno for FR? lol (not a dig on the moderators, just kind of a funny turn of events)

[steve-b]

in CYA mode

A rather inapt description of this photo, to be sure.

[lainie]

Their websites are full of images orchestrated to make them appear as victims and mommies. I await NOW's press release at any moment: 'conservatives refuse family-values country music group for not towing party line'

I'm not sure if I should be impressed or disturbed that you noticed this.

At first, I just thought they had fat twins there.
