Men Mimic Female Models in Sexy Photo Shoot Spoof

[yuiyoshida]

When Oregon Ducati dealership MotoCorsa did a photo shoot highlighting the luxury Panigale motorcycle, the campaign featured some classic themes of pinup photography: the shiny, powerful motorcycle and skimpily clad models in high heels doing provocative poses.

The one difference, though, is that MotoCorsa's pinup models were men - men dressed in short shorts or tights, red high heels, and tight, low-cut tops while they contort themselves into sexy poses on and around the Panigale.

The shoot, titled MANigale, was actually a spoof an earlier MotoCorsa shoot promoting the Panigale. That shoot for screensavers featured a female model - Kylie Shea Lewallen - but the Portland dealership's general manager, Arun Sharma, said he thought it would be fun to recreate the images, but with male employees of the dealership.



The men's images - Sharma's included - were displayed next to Lewallen's and put on Facebook and the dealership's website.
