Hunter’s most recent interview ended in controversy. She posed for a GQ photo shoot and after the magazine was published Hunter said she cried for two hours about the racy pictures.

She was wearing nothing but a white collared shirt and string of pearls. In one photo she is not wearing pants.

GQ strongly defended the photo shoot and Hunter’s implication that she didn’t realize what the photos would show. The magazine even released a video of the photo shoot with the photographer asking Hunter, “Do you want to take a look at this.”
