Here's what Kerr had to say about the whole thing, "In the media at the time they were trying to cling on to anything remotely to do with paedophilia. Dolly is a magazine for teenage girls, not for old men. And I was fully clothed! Doing a winter shoot! They just made something out of nothing."

Kerr is currently writing an inspirational self-esteem self-help book called Treasure Yourself aimed at the female teenage demographic.


Kerr is dubbed "the next MacPherson" and generates a high volume of interest in both the Australasian, European and American markets.
