ALLURE: Why did you agree to pose naked? CHELSEA HANDLER: "I like being naked, and I like Allure, so I figured, Why not?"
ALLURE: What was it like on the set? CH: "I think it was easy—you're naked a couple times a day, so I think it would be easy for most women."
ALLURE: What body parts are you most proud of? CH: "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."
ALLURE: Are you comfortable with nudity? ELIZA DUSHKU: "I grew up with three brothers, and I was never shy about covering up. It got to the point where my mom was like, 'OK, honey, it's time to put some clothes on now.'"
ALLURE: What about these days? ED: "I'll strip down to my underwear and my Ugg boots when I eat lunch in my trailer."
ALLURE: How would you compare this to filming a love scene? ED: "Love scenes are much more multidimensional, because often you have two people who have just met and you're rolling around, and it's more awkward than when you're posing alone."
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."
ALLURE: Are you confident about your body? PL: "Yes; I like the way I look. I think I look better now than I did in my 20s, because I'm more confident about my body—and I don't want to look like anyone but myself."
ALLURE: Do you sleep naked?
PL: "I tend to sleep in the nude. I'm an innately tactile person and a very sensual-leaning woman. You have to use the word 'leaning' or it sounds like I'm boasting! When I'm in my own private space, I do spend time with very little on."
