GQ Blasts Rielle Hunter: "She Knew What She Was Doing" at the Shoot Credit: Mark Seliger/GQ

GQ is blasting Rielle Hunter, who is said to be repulsed by the racy shots of her in the magazine's April issue.

Hunter -- a 45-year-old videographer who had a fling with John Edwards and gave birth to his 2-year-old daughter Frances Quinn -- told Barbara Walters that she thought photographer Mark Seliger would've used some of the "beautiful headshots" he took of her.

Busted! See stars who were caught cheating

Instead, they used shots of her wearing no pants as she lounged next to stuffed animals.

But GQ isn't buying it.

"Did she say she thought they would be headshots?" GQ reporter Lisa DePaulo asked incredulously on ABC's Good Morning America Tuesday.

"Rielle is a smart woman," DePaulo added. "She knows what she wore and what she was doing in the photo shoot."

GQ also released a video of the shoot to "GMA" today and at one point the videographer asks Hunter, "You want to take a look at this?"

    She's hot. I can't blame Johnny for having an affair with her. I'd let her sit on my face anyday.

    According to this article, she gave birth to a 2 year old.....now that's noteworthy!

    She knew how she was posing, she is old enough to know. I am upset with her, because she knew his wife has cancer and even if he made advances at her, she should have said no. She is included with all these other women,who cheat with married men.

    That butt ugly tramp knew EXACTLY what she was doing in that photo session, hoping, probably like the Octomom, that she would be rocketed to fame and stardom. She is, and obviously always HAS been, nothing but a skinny, desperate "seed depository!"

    oops... meant to say he had bought her a house. Actually - they deserve each other. He'll cheat on her just like he cheated on Elizabeth. Then she'll have a psychotic break and do something crazy/violent

    Unfortunately "Johnny" has bought this conniving white trash a husee in my hometown (Charlotte). I hope they don't both come to live here. We don't want Cheetahs and Husband Stealers around.

    she is not too bright. she can not have her cake and eat it too. She needs to go back to school and learn what morals are

  • March 22, 2010 - 1:31pm Ashlee

    She's a real piece of work...She leaves a sex tape behind when she moved, knowing it would be found (then acts surprise, just like the photo shoot). She's determine to be in the limelight and anyone's expense, including her child. Boy, John really scraped the bottom of the barrel when he hooked up with her...She knew exactly what she was doing when she posed for the photos. Notice how she always blames others...She'll never be publicly liked and accepted..We see her for what she is. An Opportunist...I feel sorry for the poor child, it has two pieces of trash for parents. Elizabeth will be better of with these two parasites (Rielle and John) out of her life. I feel sorry for her and her children. They are innocent victims in all this.

  • March 22, 2010 - 1:53am Jill

    Oh please. How can we have a headshot when she was posed like that next to the stuffed animals on the floor. Rielle is a smart woman and works in the industry (video and photo) and I feel she knows. Really tacky of her to do this interview while Elizabeth Edwards fighting for cancer.

    And holding her daughter with her pants untied? Why would someone use their daughter to "sexify" themselves? She has no character or morals.

  • March 19, 2010 - 7:24pm Erin

    She is a con. She totally knew what she was doing. She's an opportunistic piece of garbage who flat out had an affair with a married man. She is not beautiful. She is not classy. She is definately not "mother of the year". Too bad she's getting more than her 15 minutes.

  • March 17, 2010 - 11:29pm Renee

    What an idiot! If she thought the pictures were repulsive, then why did she pose for them AND sign a release that GQ got to pick the pictures. So she had an affair. Its not ideal, but it happens. But to slam his wife while she's dying of cancer. That just goes to show her complete and total lack of character! Maybe Elizabeth is everything that Reille says she is. So what! Take the high road. Stop making yourself look even worse than you already have!

  • March 17, 2010 - 3:12pm Jen

    She was repulsed by her photos in GQ but not repulsed by the fact that she had an affair with a married man? Rielle is a grown woman and she had to know that the chances of other photos being in the magazine and not just headshots were pretty high. Seems like common sense to me

  • March 17, 2010 - 12:52pm You know who I am!

    @SUSIE, u r so RIDICULOUS! To call RH "a BEAUTIFUL woman", don't u know that "beauty is as beauty does". This woman u seem to admire is just plain UGLY all the way around! You say she should "hold her head HIGH" in all this disgusting mess that SHE helped create(although not wanting to take 1 bit of responsibility), YOU must be HIGH on something to believe that. I am agreeing w/another poster that thinks u must have something in common w/ this PATHETIC woman. You say u "r not a mistress", but I will BET that @ some point u lowered yourself and slept w/ a married man(justifying it all because of an EVIL wife and in the name of LOVE, ofcourse and not giving a D@MN about who is getting hurt), u seem too sympathetic with RH. Let me tell you something sweetie....Rielle Hunter is a NARCISSISTIC, SELFISH PIG,has NO INTEGRITY or MORAL COMPASS, DESPERATE with NO SELF ESTEEM OR RESPECT FOR HERSELF or anyone else (except, of course "JOHNNY"-all the above adjectives are 4 him as well)! But why am I worried over this CRAP, the KARMA BUS will run all of you over in the end!

  • March 17, 2010 - 12:49pm elliemae

    I for one have to thank Rielle. If it hadn't been for her, a lot of us might still be under the mistaken notion that Johnny was the model family man with all those values he talked about. So, yeah, thank you Rielle, for exposing the phony to the world.

  • March 17, 2010 - 12:35pm HeelShields

    She really needs help and hoipefully she will get it

  • March 17, 2010 - 12:28pm Gina

    Rielle you ARE A REPULSIVE BIMBO!!!This man has a Terminally sick wife/kids,but all you could think about was getting your itch scratched.John Edwards needs to go to prison,maybe then he will feel remorse for his actions!!! They are both PATHETIC LOSERS!!!
