What distinguishes super-star SGs from others, some of whom might be considered more conventionally good looking? It's not anything crass like body measurements - the kind of thing that qualifies girls for Page Three. Women who strip off for the Murdoch press usually look as boring as hell. On the other hand, women can have big tits, small tits, thin legs, big bums - whatever - and look stunning, It might be erotic imagination - though here I'm not sure how much the visual image is due to the model, and how much to the photographer, and how much it's a collaboration between the two? Certainly some photographers, like Cherry, produce work that's consistently more erotic. (Can you search by photographer on SG so you can look at all their work?) But the model makes such a difference. They have to have that sexual confidence, to be at home with their sexuality and their fantasies, before they can explore them for the camera. It's their vision that is tapped into. The best - Debra Jean, Charlie, Astra - take the whole art to another level. You get that frisson of surprise when you look at their sets. These are images that just stop you in your tracks. They are redefining beauty.

Maybe they are high-energy individuals with abundant Chi, which is why they seem larger than life? When they walk in a room, heads turn.
