One of the most high-profile nude photo spreads Playgirl did in the late 2000s was Johnston’s.
The actor wound up suing Playgirl, alleging a trespassing paparazzi illegally snapped the photos while he was on vacation with then-girlfriend Gwyneth Paltrow. Although he did not formally pose for Playgirl, in 1997, the magazine featured Pitt on a cover. Atkins, who was already famous for being nude in the 1980 film “Blue Lagoon,” was featured in 1982’s Best of Playgirl magazine.ġ980s heartthrob Lamas would go on to pose for the magazine in 1996, appearing shirtless on the magazine’s cover. Reynolds would be the inspiration for decades of men to come at Playgirl.
