You can accomplish pretty much everything on LinkedIn with JavaScript turned off, so it continues to be a fairly safe site.

Surely most people on LinkedIn, which boasts it has the highler echelons of society, would smell a rat when a "celebrity" is using a professional networking site to tout nude pictures?

Not the best place to be spreading malware.
