Courtney Stodden Back On Facebook

Back when 16 year old Courtney Stodden married Lost actor Doug Hutchison (remember Horace Godspeed?), at a ceremony in Las Vegas, she began tweeting sexy photos of herself, -something most girls do.


They became popular however, and soon she amassed about 40,000 twitter followers.


She also aroused a lot of hate, and after repeated 'inappropriate' flags, her account was removed.


Today however, Facebook did an about face and restored service, along with issuing an apology, saying that the lockout was an error. The starlet, who's twitter posts swing from lusty to religious has also just released an album.


Not only have her pics caused a sensation, but also the content of her post, which swing from the religious to lusty. In a recent interview with Us magazine, she claimed, 'God has sanctified me with my soulmate", speaking of Hutchison, who is 34 years her senior.

Along with her voluptuous figure, it's for post like these she's in the media spotlight. You can catch more Stoddenisms on her new single, 'Don't Put It On Me'.

It also paints a picture of rural poverty which is neither overly sentimental nor degrading.


The production design is authentic, and times felt like a moving Brassai, or Walker Evans. In fact, Walker Evans' famous images of a white sharecropper family had been taken just two years earlier in 1936, as a part of FDR's New Deal Program.

Shirley Mills was 12 when she appeared in this, her first role. Reactionary controversy surrounds a skinny-dipping scene. However, the scene is beautifully shot, and not at all suggestive.
