Rachel Bilson may be tiny, but she's all growed up and posing in a bikini for GQ magazine. I've always thought that she seemed like the more level-headed female counterpart to Mischa Barton's aloof, Ked-endorsing off-screen persona. And when Rachel and Adam Brody broke up, I have to say that I breathed a sigh of relief because I felt like they looked way too much like brother and sister--with their dark hair, slight frames and button noses--to be dating each other.
And in these pics, she looks super-cute, in her retro-looking red, white and blue bikini and heels. I feel like she's almost channeling a more girl-next-door pocket-sized Angelina in these pictures. I mean, if you're into that sort of thing...

PinkWeenie says:
And she wonders why she's not being taken seriously as an actress and offered the meaty roles of her counterparts?
Who's advising this "actress"... Pamela Anderson?
T-Bone says:
She's more like a mini Cindy Crawford, actually. And I think the best picture out here is the one where her entire body is NOT being exploited (the second one -- the one after the main picture). Yeah, she has her finger in her mouth, but it's a beautiful shot.
Chaz says:
I like Rachel Bilson a lot, but she's not actually working very much. How did she rate a major cover like GQ, where cover stories are usually either pegged to an upcoming movie or of a certifiably huge star?
Anonymous says:
I'm a little disappointed. She's such a talented and beautiful girl. I never thought she'd take this route. It's always disappointing to me when young women use their sexuality. It's 2008 for crying out loud. But then again, we are talking about Hollywood.

the cover shot looks very awkward...
kimbo says:
Chaz, I'm sure this is part of the marketing campaign for Rachel's new movie, Jumper. They have been marketing that thing like it's going out of style!
Interloper says:
She's cute, but really, she needs to eat a sandwich. With fries. The rib cage look is awful.
Amber says:
I actually like these pictures a lot!
She looks beautiful, and plays the part of a vintage pin up girl very well. I don't see why everyone's got their panties in a bunch. If I could pull off a photoshoot the way she just did, I'd be one happy lady. People need to lighten up, and stop being such prudes.
Esther Greenwood says:
Didn't she just tell Playboy that she wasn't into getting nekked?
I think these pics are 'awkward sexy' (as in, it doesn't suit her). They also look photoshopped in the worst kind of way. Her legs are all different shapes (in very similar poses).
Eater's Regret says:
There is something so awful and awkward about these shots, cute little Summer shouldn't be whoring herself out like some oversexed Hilton tramp. It's not being prudish, it's just unnecessary - you can keep your clothes on and still be sexy.

Talking about being HYPOCRITE, TACKY & DESPERATE...
that's pathetically all there she is right now!
Shootingstar says:
Love these pictures!
Very retro and fresh. Makes me wish it was springtime.
Mr.Poop says:
grown woman with the body of a 12 yr. old boy....white man's dream perhaps?...
Derelict says:
Ugh; I'll pass, thnx
Come back in 5 yrs or so when you've managed to hit some sort of delayed puberty
Lala says:
her legs look so weird on the cover shot cuz they photoshopped her feet to look like shes got stilletoes on when really shes wearin those big ole stacks

I find it odd that so many of you are attacking her for these pictures, yet at the same time delivering very harsh judgments on every aspect of her body. If anything is disgusting, it's this attitude that we can freely rip apart women based on how they look.
