John Edwards’ mistress Rielle Hunter has continued her feud with GQ over the pictures they used in the April feature story. Rielle sits down with writer Lisa DePaulo and tells the magazine why she carried on an affair with the married presidential hopeful and how she believes the two experienced love at first sight, amongst other delusions.

Then Rielle told the masses (via Barbara Walters) that she felt tricked by the photographer for the magazine and cried for hours about the pictures. She does look like a floozy. In once she sits pantless and in another she’s writhing on a bed. However, GQ has struck back saying she knew exactly what she was doing.

“Did she say she thought they would be headshots?” GQ reporter Lisa DePaulo asked incredulously on ABC’s Good Morning America Tuesday (via usmagazine.com)”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?”

Marilyn Monroe aside, presidential affairs always seem to unleash a particular brand of crazy. It’s never the simple cocktail waitresses and porn stars, like those we’ve grown accustomed in other branches of celebrity.
