Olivia Munn (co-host of the G4TV program Attack of the Show!) is the top story of…well, all kinds of things right now. Why not though? She’s hot, knowledgeable about so many pop cultural topics, and just plain cool; so, of course, she’s going to be a hot topic. This time the big story is about Munn’s photo shoot in Playboy, where she does NOT get naked on film, to many people’s disappointment. Her nudity is not from lack of trying on the part of the Playboy crew. The Playboy stylist kept trying to get her into things that consisted of see-through lace and some string, which she declined. Persistence usually wins people over but not this strong willed lady. She stuck to her guns about not getting into her birthday suit. I mean, her birthday’s not for another couple of weeks, so it’s only logical to save it for the big occasion.
I, for one, am very glad she didn’t bare all for all. It almost seems like all women have to show skin, often a lot of skin, in order to gain any headway in the Hollywood business. Olivia, however, has gained fame and respect based on her talents. Well, I’m sure that her being hot has a little something to do with it; but, she has not posed for a nude photo or performed nude at any point, and she is still very popular. She also has scored movie roles and magazine covers, not because she’s undressed but because she’s cool. I love the no nudity thing – it keeps her classy and sets a good precedent for all us other ladies out there. It’s like she’s saying, “I don’t have to get naked to get ahead. My talents are enough.”
There are several other actresses who are known for having had no-nudity clauses. Some of these include Rachel Bilson, Rachel Leigh Cook, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jessica Alba, Mila Kunis, and Sarah Jessica Parker, and now Olivia Munn joins those hallowed ranks.
Rock on, Olivia Munn! Way to keep your clothes on! Leave a little something to be desired.
This is the Action Flick Chick! And you’ve just been kicked in the ass!

You can go a long way by leaving things to the imagination. Though wearing a Leia slave girl outfit probably isn’t the best way to go about it 🙂
Kudos to her. I’d be the first one looking, but I give her credit for saying no.
Woah, she’s a triple homina – as my dad used to say.

Olivia Munn is fun! I don’t watch AOTS that often but when I do, I enjoy it.
Me likey the laptop licky! 😉
Oh – it’s Apple TV. Less likely, but still — um… you know…
While I understand your points about actresses and nudity, if Miss Munn didn’t want to do nudity, she shouldn’t have posed for Playboy. And Playboy shouldn’t have caved in to her absurd demands. There are tons of non-nude magazines Miss Munn could pose for and the nudity subject wouldn’t be on the table (though the paycheck wouldn’t been as big). If you don’t want to do nudes, don’t shoot for Playboy. How hard is that to understand? And Playboy was stupid to throw money at her gambling that the sales boost would outweigh pissing off their readers. I hope that stunt comes back to bite Playboy Editorial on the ass, hard! Olivia doing a non-nude pictorial in Playboy is like Pamala Anderson doing an ad for Omaha Steaks.
On another note, I don’t know anyone (myself included) who wants to see Sarah Jessica Parker naked. Seriously, I don’t see the attraction. And I thought her ‘Sex and the City’ character was the weakest and most overrated of the four.
And can anyone remember the last movie Rachel Leigh Cook was in?? I haven’t see or heard from her since that Stallone movie where he played a leg breaking dept collector.
I’ve never seen anything Rachel Bilson was in, so I could care less if she got naked or not. Jessica Alba will crash and burn soon enough. Jennifer Love Hewitt is getting past her prime to the point where the nude request will stop. I’ve only seen one movie with Mila Kunis and while she seems to be a good actress, for some reason I have no desire to see her naked. And while I enjoyed ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ I was more interested in Eliza Dushku and Allison Hannigan than Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Say what you want, I’ve never been a big fan…

Olivia is not bad, nothing compared to the hotness of Jessica Michibata for example
