Michelle McGee: Dressing Like a Nazi Isn't 'Racism'

USMagazine, Monday, May 31, 2010, 10:42am (PDT)

Michelle "Bombshell" McGee still knows how to shock.

During a Sunday appearance on Toronto TV program "etalk," Jesse James' famous mistress defended recently unearthed photos of herself wearing Nazi regalia.

"I don't believe it's racism at all," McGee said. "Anti-Semitism? Yes. If that was the intention of putting the costume on."

When interviewer Elaine Lui points out that anti-Semitism is a form of racism, McGee retorts, "That's your view on that. I don't see it that way."

In a photo first revealed by Us Weekly, Jesse James was also caught wearing an SS officer hat, pantomiming Hitler's mustache and performing a Sieg Heil salute.

James, 41, said in an interview last week that it "makes me really sad" to be called a racist. Of the photos, he said, "Looking at it in the context of now and in my life, it's not funny ... There's not a racist bone in my body."

McGee also opened up about Sandra Bullock, who has since filed for divorce from James and stepped out with newly adopted son Louis. "In a twisted type of way," McGee opines, "I guess Sandra should be thankful that I did come forward and let her know that her husband did cheat on her."

The controversial tattooed model and stripper was in town to shoot a commercial for Ashley Madison, an online dating service for those already in relationships.

"I have two beautiful boys to take care of, I'm a single mom," she said of making money from the pro-adultery website. "So yeah, I have profited off of this."

She explained, "it's also my first priority is to take care of my kids, to make sure they have a roof over their heads and food ... I will do what it takes to support my children."
