Many readers were disappointed to learn that they wouldn't see Kim Kardashian naked in her upcoming Playboy photo spread.

But don't worry fans, looks like you may have a chance to see the former sex tape star in all her bare glory again after all.

Reportedly, a criminal investigation is underway regarding a slew of nude pictures starring both Kim and Kourtney Kardashian. The alleged crime in question? The pics were taken of the sisters underage.

All the guys dreaming of Hayden Panettiere nude are thankful this Heroes star is now 18 years old, that's for sure.

Kim Kardashian doesn't seem too worried about a nude picture scandal. Who hasn't already seen her naked anyway?

The stars of the upcoming reality show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, supposedly posed for a few racy photos eleven years ago - and now a David Hans Schmidt wanna-be is trying to sell the pics to celebrity gossip outlets.

"Any publication that would print these pictures, which are considered child pornography, will be subject to the same criminal investigation as the agency who is attempting to sell them," said a family representative.
