Allure's NEW annual NUDES

*Warning: PIRATE RADIO presentation*


Nude

[nood, nyood]
adjective

1. naked or unclothed, as a person or the body.
2. without the usual coverings, furnishings, etc.; bare:
Okay. Allure Magazine isn't totally guilty of false advertising with their annual, publicity grabbing "nude" issue. Their yearly gathering of some of the sexiest women in entertainment do feature them unclothed, but they know nude means seeing the good stuff, right? What's the point of being naked if you can't see some T, A and B? Jordana Brewster, Katheryn Winnick, Nicole Beharie, Laverne Cox and Sandrine Holt have great bods and I know the main objective of this is positive body image for women but wouldn't it be super brave and empowering to show EVERYTHING! But then that would be "pornographic," I guess. Sigh.     
 
Anyway, Allure asked these girls their thoughts on nudity in their lives and how they prepped for this "risque" shoot.
 
Katheryn Winnick:  
 
How did you prep for the shoot?
"I called my girlfriends and asked them to pose naked to show me what positions look good. I have a few crazy photos on my phone."
What's your nude comfort level at home?
"I'll do the dishes naked, learn my lines naked, walk around my house naked."
Have you ever been to a strip club?
"I used to go. There are incredible dancers there, and if it's in a classy way...I appreciated a woman's body when I was there."
Any parting words?
"Everybody should do this, in their home, hopefully with their significant other. If you can feel good in your own skin, why hide it?"

Jordana Brewster:
Did you tell your husband that you'd be posing nude?
"I asked if he had any reservations. He said, 'Just don't do full frontal.' He'll be pleasantly surprised."
Why now?
"I'm having more fun posing nude or being in a bikini or doing love scenes than I ever did before because it hit me: This is fleeting, and in a couple of years I won't be able to do this, so just enjoy it."
Do you walk differently when naked?
"It depends whether someone is watching."
Were you raised in a household where nudity was no big deal?
"I was raised in Brazil for part of my life, where people are pretty open about their bodies, so yeah. The bikinis are kind of nonexistent, so you might as well be naked."
Wow! These girls sound so open-minded, comfortable and free about being totally nude. Wish they could have show that openness in the PAGES OF ALLURE'S NUDE ISSUE!!!
Breathing in. One. Two. Three. Four. Breathing out. One. Two. Three. Four.
