I know it touches on the substitution of real wealth with cultural practices that seemingly represent wealth. But still.

Agree.

If you read the article, there are many other photos that can be chosen. But I think this photo speaks to the audience in the wrong way.

It completely takes the audience away from the subject to the topic of child sexualization in pageant industries.

The book is very much about sex and money as well. The bar mitzvah story? The Russian oligarch's wife?

Sex and money, yes. But this photo? It's click bait.

If she'd just been made up it would have been only weird. But with the come-hither flick of the tongue it is exploitative. Reconsider.
