Joanna Krupa has appeared in Playboy twice so far, one centerfold back in 2005 and another centerfold in the upcoming December issue.
Fox News asked her what her thoughts on posing naked are and she said she believes it represents women in a positive light, not a bad light like most people think.
She says… “There are several great reasons why female celebs line up to shoot Playboy: finally a woman gets paid more than a man for comparable work, she gets to set the rules, gets to be in a real team work with other women, as many key positions at Playboy are in fact held by women! She brings in her creative ideas, gets involved in the photo selection and ends up with something she co-created through and through, the word ‘Playboy’ alone doesn’t exactly give most women a warm, fuzzy feeling, yet many of the Playboy photos end up in the most praised photo and art magazines and in critically acclaimed photo exhibitions….â€
I couldn’t agree with Joanna Krupa anymore, but she now has given me a false image of a bunch of hot women sitting around the table discussing the photoshoots.

This isn’t your average teenage pin-up calendar — not when the women photographed carry titles like congresswoman and columnist.
On Friday, the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute plans to release its fifth annual Great American Conservative Woman calendar. Demand is already so high for the 2010 run that the institute expects it to sell out, and may order a second printing, according to de facto calendar spokeswoman Alyssa Cordova, the lecture director for the institute.
She didn’t win the Miss USA pageant, but Carrie Prejean still holds a place in many conservatives’ hearts. The beauty queen is featured as Miss October in the 2010 Great American Conservative Women calendar, the fifth produced by the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute.
Best-selling author and media personality Ann Coulter appears as Miss September. “Each of the women featured in this calendar epitomizes both the brains and beautify of the modern conservative woman,” said Alyssa Cordova, the institute’s policy director and de facto calendar spokeswoman.
The women all appear in simple white shirts this year, a departure from last year’s mink. Here, popular speaker and chairperson of the Virginia GOP Kate Obenshain poses for the calendar.
I’m laughing hard at the lady in the middle!!
From left to right, the women appearing in the fifth annual calendar are: Bay Buchanan, Prejean, Rep. Michele Bachmann, S.E. Cupp, Star Parker, Phyllis Schlafly, Kellyanne Conway, Coulter, Obenshain, Michelle Malkin, and Marji Ross. The publication inspired a challenge from the Huffington Post, which asked for nominations for a liberal calendar.
The calendar is available free to college students or in exchange for a $25 donation on the organization’s Web site.
Meanwhile, Huffington Post has countered with a request for readers to name their liberal calendar girls. Nominees include outspoken actress Susan Sarandon, liberal talking head Rachel Maddow and of course, Arianna Huffington (the Web site’s co-founder and editor-in-chief).
There’s no word on a men’s version.
