Harris said it was important for girls to consider what type of model they would like to be before undertaking early work. "If she was interested in high fashion and that, maybe that might not have been the smartest move," she stated. "Personally, I wouldn't do it at any age really, and 16, I think that is really, really young," she said. She worried that Corby might consider it a "mistake" in years to come. Harris, who relocated to Sydney to further her modelling career, stressed she did not want to sound "nasty", but said 16 years old did seem very young to feature nude on a magazine cover. "I think photographs like these are inappropriate, particularly when the young woman involved is only 16," Tweed Daily News quoted her as saying. Richmond MP Justine Elliot and fellow Tweed model Samantha Harris have voiced unease about Corby's age, and Elliot, a mother herself, has stated the magazine cover was not in good taste.
