Oddly Enough - Reuters
BERLIN (Reuters) - A German singer who plays Snow White has lost her job at Dresden's Christmas fair after posing for nude photos in a bathtub, Bild newspaper said on Monday.
Fair organizers fired Samira, 22, after photos appeared in Bild and other publications showing her lying naked in a bathtub filled with soap suds and rose petals.
Samira, whose surname was not given, has played Snow White for five years. Dresden's mayor and others who miss her performance are asking that she be reinstated.
What, no pictures???!!!
Turned in, no doubt, by the forgotten 8th Dwarf- Stiffy.

Seven dwarves strike to save Snow White
The Seven Dwarves are threatening to strike at a Christmas market in Germany after Snow White was sacked for posing naked.
Model Samira, 22, has played the part of Snow White for the past five years at the annual Christmas market in the ancient city of Dresden. Her long black hair, pale skin and beautiful red lips made her a favourite among schoolchildren, and their dads.
But after posing for some saucy snaps in the country’s biggest selling newspaper Bild, she was banished from Fairyland by the organisers of the Christmas market. Peter Siebecke said: “We already planned for her not to be included as Snow White in 2004.”
But Samira, born to Turkish parents in Germany, said: “That’s rubbish. It is all because of the photos. I am really upset.” Now the seven dwarves, along with other characters from the Grimm Fairy Tale, even the wicked Queen, are threatening strike action unless Samira is reinstated. ananova
No doubt this will be a developing story.
