With the news that Playboy plans to stop publishing nude photos of women, the question of where celebrities will go to turn to bare it all has yet to be answered.
For decades, the men’s magazine has provided a space for stars to strip down or pose in next to nothing — often in an attempt to revive their careers (looking at you, Lindsay Lohan).
Marilyn Monroe famously appeared on the magazine’s first cover in 1953, which featured photos that were taken before she was even a star. Years later, dozens of celebrities would follow in her footsteps, either covering the magazine or appearing nude inside. And while the magazine’s cover used to feature A-listers including Jessica Alba, Charlize Theron and Elle MacPherson, in recent years, B-listers like Tara Reid, Heidi Montag, and the aforementioned Lohan were far more likely to appear.
In honor of Playboy’s big announcement, lets take a look back at all the famous faces who have graced its cover.
