Socialite Kim Kardashian stripped for Playboy in a bid to prove to the
world she hasn't been cosmetically enhanced.
The pretty brunette, who was involved in a sex tape scandal last year
(06), bares all in the December 2007 issue of the men's magazine, and
admits the decision to get naked wasn't an easy one.
Kardashian, a former best pal of Paris
Hilton, admits she thought long and hard about the offer to pose for
Playboy, and asked family members and friends to help her with her
decision.
But, in the end, she decided it would be a good idea because the world
would then be able to see her all-natural curves.
The 27-year-old says, "I wanted to show that I'm not some skinny
girl, I have a healthy body image, and I'm happy with my curves and who I
am.
"I always laugh when it says on the Internet that I have fake
boobs, butt implants or injected lips, because it's so not true. I've
never had plastic surgery.
"I'm excited for people to finally see how I really am."
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star graces the cover of the new
Playboy, wearing a skimpy red bathing suit, but she strips off inside,
wearing nothing but pearls and ornate jewelry.
