We look back at some of the stars who appeared nude in the late Hugh Hefner’s iconic magazine Playboy.
Marilyn Monroe – December 1953
The legendary star appeared nude in the first issue of Hefner’s magazine.
Farrah Fawcett – December 1978
The “Charlie’s Angels” star made waves with her cover.
Bo Derek – March 1980
Hot off her 1979 R-rated hit “10,” Bo Derek appeared the following year — without the cornrows.
Kim Basinger – February 1983
Basinger did her famous Playboy shoot in 1981 but it appeared two years later around the time of her stint as a Bond girl in “Never Say Never Again.”
Madonna – September 1985
Just as the Material Girl was taking off in her film debut “Desperately Seeking Susan,” Playboy published nude pics from 1978 when she was a struggling artist in NYC.
Sharon Stone – July 1990
Stone appeared around the time she starred in “Total Recall.”
Pamela Anderson – July 1992
The “Baywatch” star also graced the cover of the magazine’s “final” nude issue in 2016.
Jenny McCarthy – June 1994
The model was paid $20,000 to pose for Playboy — and parlayed that into a lucrative career on TV.
Charlize Theron – May 1999
The actress unsuccessfully sued Playboy when it published nude shots from her early days as a model.
Denise Richards – December 2004
The former Bond girl (“The World Is Not Enough”) posed just five months after giving birth.
Lindsay Lohan – January/February 2012
The former child star did a pictorial in 2012 inspired by Marilyn Monroe’s shoot for the first issue.
