Joanna Krupa, named the “Sexiest Swimsuit Model in the World” by Playboy magazine, credits Pope John Paul for her decision to pose for nude photos.

“I think worrying about going topless in a photo shoot or film is really ridiculous,” Krupa told FOXNews.com. “And the fact is Pope John Paul said, since we were born naked, it is art, and it’s just showing a beautiful body that God created.”

The 29-year-old swimsuit model and actress was born in Poland and moved with her family to Chicago, IL at age five.

In addition to gracing the covers of numerous men’s magazines, including FHM, Personal, Inside Sport, Stuff, Steppin’ Out, Teeze and Maxim, Krupa also spends time fighting for animal rights, and writes a column for bestswimwear.com, where she talks about how to get your body in bikini shape.
