Playboy

Playboy will branch out in November.

The iconic men's magazine has announced, via a Tweet from its legendary founder, that Sherlyn Chopra will become the first Indian Playmate in the history of this storied publication, as the 5'7" brunette bares it all this fall.

A Bollywood film star, Chopra was raised by a Muslim mother and Christian father. She won a beauty pageant title at the age of 17 and lived for many years in Mumbai.

But we know what you really want to know, fellas: the beauty weighs 105 lbs and her measurements are 34C-24-36. Score!

You're just months away from seeing Sherlyn Chopra nude.

Photos from this month's Jenny McCarthy Playboy spread continue to hit the web, though you'll still need to pick up the magazine for the full monty.

The 39-year-old's Playboy cover, showing her in all her old Hollywood glory, dropped last week. Since then, a few more pictures have been released.

Let's just say she's "still got it," to borrow the unofficial tagline of the much buzzed-about spread. Here's another tease of what's to come ...

Jenny recently remarked that she wanted to pose for the men's magazine that made her famous one last time "before things really start to fall apart." As if.

For 40, or almost 40, she's looking pretty darn good.

Hopefully Hef brings her back for another spread around the time of her 50th birthday. Hey, if you've got it, flaunt it, right? Who says sexy is reserved for 20-year-olds.

Here's a look at the Jenny McCarthy pictures released so far:

Count Kendra Wilkinson as a fan of the Jenny McCarthy Playboy cover.

K-Dubs doesn't plan on baring it all anymore, but she has a message for McCarthy, who, at 39 years old, stripped down for the latest issue of the mag.

That message is simple: Way to be!

"Good for her," Kendra, who's posed for her share of Playboy spreads and starred on Hugh Hefner's TV shows. "She definitely has it, why not flaunt it?"

Jenny McCarthy, the 1993 Playmate of the Year, returns to nude form on the cover of the July/August double issue, which hits newsstands this week.

The cover, featuring Jenny McCarthy nude, is already out.

"She looks great," the Kendra on Top star said at Las Vegas' Pure Nightclub. "If that gives her confidence at almost 40 years old, why not do it?"

McCarthy has maintained humor about her Playboy return, recently saying she wanted to pose once more "before everything really falls apart."

Some things really do get better with age.

Just months away from turning 40, and 19 years after she got naked in Playboy for the first time, Jenny McCarthy is back in the men's magazine.

And she's still got it.

The model / actress' fourth nude pictorial hits newsstands this Friday in the July / August issue. Check out the just-released cover photo of Jenny McCarthy in Playboy:

"I'm really proud of it," McCarthy told People of the pictorial.

"The pictures are really gorgeous and classy. They really could be out of W magazine."

"They're just really elegant photos. It's probably a lot more sophisticated than a lot of the stuff you'd see of people with their clothes on."

"The one thing I like about Playboy is they don't have the anorexic look. The women are voluptuous. So I didn't really want to diet. I just wanted to tone up."

Mission accomplished, we'd have to say. Models everywhere need to take a cue from this (and Kate Upton pictures) and do what comes naturally: Eat.

If anybody wants to know why Jenny McCarthy is posing for Playboy at the age of 39, nearly two decades after she first did, her response is twofold, and simple:

1. To promote autism research, and 2. Why not?

TV's Love in the Wild host took to Twitter this week and said, "Why should only 20 yr olds be considered sexy?" she writes. "Let's (hear) it for the MILFs."

Somehow we imagine guys can buy into that.

Jenny McCarthy Playboy Interview

In a poll, fans have responded by a two-to-one margin that McCarthy has only gotten better with age from when she first appeared in Playboy in 1993.

Interestingly, two years ago, McCarthy told Playboy in an interview (above) that she could be persuaded to pose again, but the mag couldn't afford it.

Maybe the price went down? Or Hef dug deeper?

Who knows. Also interestingly, Jenny said at age 37 that wasn't sure if she'd still "have it" in a few years. Guess it's safe to say she still does.

It feels like 1993 all over again.

Jenny McCarthy will pose nude for Playboy's July/August issue, marking a surprise return from one of Hugh Hefner's most famous Playmates of the Year.

After almost 20 years, the soon-to-be 40-year-old model, actress and mom is returning to show off her goods on the cover of the men's mag June 29.

Jenny first posed for Playboy in 1993 for a modest $20,000, earning herself the title of Playmate of the Month and a bit later on, Playmate of the Year.

She confirmed her return to the magazine with a bit of irony.

McCarthy told E! this week, "All I wanted to do [when she began in the industry] was work with my clothes on, and now I just hope to get them off!"

Any objections? Guys? No? Speak now or forever hold your ... nevermind. Check out three vintage Jenny McCarthy Playboy covers after the jump:

The infamous Tanning Mom says she's willing to flaunt her (literally) HOT body for Playboy ... IF the opportunity arose. NOTE: She's practicing poses already.

Patricia Krentcil would happily accept an invitation to bare it all for Hef, but fortunately, the magazine is not interested in seeing Tanning Mom nude.

Nor is anyone else ... save for the guy who fathered the little girl she was recently arrested for taking into a tanning booth and burning. Anyway.

Patricia Krentcil Tanning Arrest

A source says “It wouldn’t even be considered” at Playboy, despite TM angling to cash in on her 15 minutes, because she's just not Playboy material.

Playboy even went on record, saying, "It would definitely never happen."

Fortunately, if you love Tanning Mom, she says she's been approached by several people interested in featuring her on a reality show. Why, who the heck knows.

Also fortunately, if you like women who fake tan less and haven't been charged with felony child endangerment, Jaclyn Swedberg is Playboy's Playmate of the Year.

Jaclyn Swedberg has received the highest honor a woman who takes off her clothes for a living can receive: she's been named the 2012 Playmate of the Year!

Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and his son, Cooper, presented the busty brunette with the award at the Playboy Mansion this afternoon.

"Jaclyn was overcome with emotion and gratitude when giving her speech in front of Hef and her family," a Playboy rep tells Us Weekly. "All in all, it was fantastic afternoon with family, friends, Playmates and past Playmates of the Year all in attendance."

Past, well-known Playmates of the Year include: Hope Dworaczyk (2010), Jayde Nicole (2008), Sara Underwood (2007), Jenny McCarthy (1994) and Anna Nicole Smith (1993).

Pakistani model- actress Veena Malik said recently that she would be willing to pose nude in Playboy for $1 million, enraging more than a few Muslim extremists.

Ones already displeased with her topless FHM shoot (below) no less.

“I’d think about it. Why would I say no? It’s a great opportunity. I’d definitely go for it,” she told the UK's Mirror, despite the controversy she created and the potentially dangerous enemies she made by appearing nude for FHM.

Veena Malik has seen many Pakistanis call for her citizenship to be revoked, and worse yet, Lashkar-e-Taiba, the Pakistani militant group behind the brutal 2008 attack on Mumbai, India, made it known they were not happy with her.

“She has made fun of all Muslim women and brought shame to the entire nation. Veena Malik will be dealt with accordingly on her return to Pakistan,” the group said.

Dealt with? Really, extremists? We'd "handle" her a little differently, to be sure.

After receiving death threats, Malik scared fans and friends when she briefly went missing last year while filming a movie, but later said she was just “resting."

What do you think? Should she go nude in Playboy, if offered the chance?

Former Alaska Governor and alleged presidential hopeful Sarah Palin and her family are the subjects of a profile in the September issue of Playboy.

That issue will, naturally, feature a Mercede Johnston nude spread as well.

Right next to the profile, in fact. Nothing says positive media coverage like your face alongside the nude sister of your grandson's baby daddy.

Mercede and Sarah: The good old days.

The Palins did not participate in the piece, obviously, but the magazine sent a writer to Alaska to interview locals and friends for their expose.

Playboy sources say Mercede Johnston, 18, is outspoken in the article about Palin and Bristol, who her brother Levi got pregnant back in '08.

Sources say Johnston was paid less than $25,000 to strip down for the magazine, but excess humiliation of the Palins is likely priceless to her.
