( Handout photo by Annie Leibovitz / August 20, 2012 ) Aug. 20: There's speculation Phelps' appearance in an advertising campaign shot by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz for the high-end designer's latest campaign could run him afoul of International Olympic Committee rules.
The photos -- there's also one of Phelps in a three-piece suit, seated on a couch with Larisa Latynina, the gymnast whose Olympic medal record he broke after 48 years -- began appearing on the Internet on Aug. 7, and quickly spread to gossip, fashion and sports sites. |
