When professional snapper Mario Tostino unveiled the results of his "best possible taste" naked photo shoot with pop diva/fashion icon Lady Gaga he could hardly have imagined the international uproar that would ensue.
Gaga, apparently pictured wearing nothing but some designer pink fluff, painstakingly designed by professional designer Marc Jacobs was widely criticised - mainly, it should be said by big fat hefty birds - for being too thin.
A source informed me that recent rumours that Gaga is suffering with 'weight issues' and living on baby food are totally untrue. It was pointed out that Gaga is no skinnier than lots of other women, and that just because she doesn't constantly stuff her face with fried chicken, doner kebabs and pizza, she must have something wrong with her.
But the row rumbled inexorably on.
A big fat bird I spoke to in Commercial Road in Portsmouth told me - as she noshed down on a jumbo triple cholesterol quadruple triple double cheeseburger with extra mayo - that she thought Gaga looked "disgusting."
"You can see all her bleeding ribs and that mate," the woman told me as she sprayed me with bits of saturated fat from her noshed up hefty burger. "She's just way too skinny. She got no blinking love handles. My Eric wouldn't look twice at a skinny little thing like her. I mean, look at her - she's not as far through as a five pound note!"
This sentiment was echoed globally by many big plump wobbly ladies, but the more slender of the gender tended to come out in favour of Gaga, saying almost unanimously that she looked pretty "hot and sexy."
Including Eric, on Commercial Road in Portsmouth, who shelled out the £6.50 for the jumbo triple cholesterol quadruple triple double cheeseburger with extra mayo, who told me:
"Love handles? Who needs 'em?"
The debate rumbles on.
More as I make it up!
