Here’s a look at some interesting July’s covers and nude celebrity pictorials from the past.
Sylvia Kristel, a Dutch actress, model and singer had a nude pictorial in July 1981 issue of Lui magazine. She gained international attention in playing in softcore films like Emmanuelle, Emmanuelle 2 and Lady Chatterley's Lover.
Her most successful movie was Private Lessons (released in August 1981) in which she played the housekeeper who initiates 15-year-old Eric Brown to the wonders of sex. The film grossed over $50,000,000 worldwide.
If you want to know more about Sylvia Kristel’s turbulent life
pick up her biography Undressing Emmanuelle: A Life Stripped Bare. In the book tells of her personal life blighted by addictions to drugs, alcohol, and her quest for a father figure which resulted in some harmful relationships with older men.
In July 1994 Czech supermodel
Eva Herzigova did an exclusive photoshoot for
French Photo magazine. She also revealed 365 secrets of her life for the magazine. In short, she posed in sexy poses wearing see-through tops for photographer
Guillaume Reynard for her 1995 calendar.
German actress
Eva Habermann, who is best known for playing the role of Zev Bellringer in the television miniseries Lexx, posed naked for
German Max magazine in July 1999. In the interview for the magazine she said that she would like to have kids but not at the moment. Going through her biography at Wikipedia, the right moment for the kids hasn’t come yet.
Australian singer
Kylie Minogue was pantieless on the cover of July 2000 issue of
GQ magazine. Kylie posed for photographer
Terry Richardson and they recreated the famous
Athena poster of a tennis girl without underwear. Later it turned out that Kylie didn’t pose as naked as Fiona Butler from the original Athena poster. Kylie was actually wearing white underwear that was digitally removed from some of the published photos.
I was going through some old photos and noticed that
Lucy Clarkson, model for the Tomb Raider video game, also recreated the Athena poster, so I included also her take on this subject.
