Allure Magazine’s “Naked Truth” Issue Is Here!
14 April 2009, 4:38 PM. By Cindy Casares
Every year, Allure asks some female actresses to pose naked in their magazine, but we don’t buy the issue for the nakedness. We buy it for startling honest interviews with each of the models.
This year’s celebrities are Top Chef’s Padma Lakshmi, Chelsea Handler, Eliza Dushku, Sharon Leal and Lynn Collins. Here’s a sampling of their words.
ALLURE: What did you do to prepare for the shoot?
PADMA LAKSHMI: “I exercised a little bit extra, but I actually think I look better when I have a little bit of weight on—my breasts are fuller, and I’m curvier than when I’m at my thinnest.”
So that’s why you look so fat in the picture.
ALLURE: Why did you agree to pose naked?
LYNN COLLINS: “Women with confidence in their bodies are the sexiest thing, so I put on my cape of courage and did it.”
Lynn. Your cape is invisible.
ALLURE: What happened when you dropped the robe?
SHARON LEAL: “I just breathed and said to myself, ‘I’m comfortable, I’m beautiful; I’m comfortable, I’m beautiful,’ until I didn’t have to say that anymore.”
That’s great how you were able to block out the voices in your head that tell you you’re worthless if you’re not in a magazine.
ALLURE: What body parts are you most proud of?
CHELSEA HANDLER: “My boobs are good. They’re real and perky. Even if you can’t see them, the important thing is that I know about them, and the guys I’ve slept with know about them.”
And the readers of Allure magazine know about them. And it’s just between the three of you now.

What is wrong with Eliza Dushku’s face in that pic? It looks like she just smelled a fart.
So is Allure trying to venture into girls next door territory? It’s a close one between padma and chelsea, they’re the only ones who look comfortable, but I’ll go with padma cause i can hardly see chelsea from all the madonna-esque glow
Give me a break Latin_Princess, Eliza Dushku is simply trying to hold the fart in like a good little Princess until she can get to the Royal Throne. Although it looks like she is sitting on a very plush throne I might add. I am just saying…..
You’re pushing it, Lengua.
i’m turning into a fan of eliza from watching dollhouse. and on that show her boobs are just not that big. although her body is amazing. makes me want to do yogalaties like all day. ok, maybe not. i’ll stick to my bike.
I want to see these photos before photoshop.. Everybody’s boobs transcend ‘perky’ into looking ‘detached’
