Celebs You Didn't Know Posed For Playboy

Publish date: 2024-05-08

Golden Globe winner and legendary sex symbol Raquel Welch appeared on the cover of Playboy in December 1979, wearing a red one-piece bathing suit. According to the Daily Mail, Hugh Hefner asked Welch "no less than 57 times" to grace the magazine. However, when she finally conceded, Welch refused to bare all for the camera. And apparently, this did not go over super well with Hefner. 

On "Life Stories" with Piers Morgan, Welch described the process of negotiating this deal with Hefner (via Independent.ie). "I got called into the front office to speak with Hugh in his bathrobe," Welch said. "I went over to the mansion and I brought my lawyer with me and I sat there in front of him and I said, 'What's the problem, Hugh?' and he said, 'Well there's no t*** and there's no a**.'" Welch pointed out that this had already been negotiated, but he replied, "Yes, but it's boring." Despite Hefner's disappointment, Welch still got paid.

So why didn't she want to pose totally naked? "I am my father's daughter and that's just not the way you behave," she told Morgan, noting taking it all off for the camera did not align with the values that'd been instilled in her. Well, she seemed to have her cake and eat it too with Playboy.
