EDITORIAL NOTE
The Skinny
We're probably not the only magazine to sing "Hurray for Hollywood,"
but we're definitely the first ones on the block to proclaim "A Toast to
the Tits and Tushes of Tinseltown!" How else would we dare introduce the
glorious 69th issue of CELEBRITY SKIN, in which we're taking a look at the world's
movie-making mecca in a comprehensive collector's issue that we're calling 69
Years of Hollywood's Hottest Sex Symbols!
From Hedy Lamarr to Helena Bonham Carter, Betty Grable to Bo Derek, we've got
55 of the hottest starlets to ever hit Hollywood, in and out of the skimpiest
bikinis, the sudsiest bathtubs and the scantiest lingerie. That's right, seven
BIG decades of film's finest flesh, all lovingly catalogued in chronological order
as a special enticement to those of you who like to ogle your stars in some sort
of historical context.
Our seven slacks-stretching sections kick off with Louise Brooks, Jean Harlow
and other actresses of yore whom we affectionately refer to as Thirties Birdies.
After zooming in on such Forties Post-War Hem-Droppers as Rita Hayworth and Lana
Turner, we bust into the Fornicatin' Fifties, home to such beauteous bewitchers
as Marilyn Monroe, Sophia Loren, Anita Ekberg and Brigitte Bardot. Our Shagadelic
Sixties department finds Raquel Welch and Ann-Margret holding court with the equally
bountiful Claudia Cardinale and Elke Sommer, while eager entrants Jacqueline Bisset,
Pam Grier, Uschi Digart and Ali MacGraw hold their own it the Sex-sational Seventies.
Finally, we move on over to the Irresistible Eighties Ladies, a powerful entry
which includes such still-stunning sirens as Kim Basinger, Demi Moore and Jennifer
Jason Leigh. We conclude with the Oh-So Naked Nineties, of course, as modern-day
sex symbols Salma Hayek, Umma-porn-star">Uma-thurman-porn-star">Umma-porn-star">Uma Thurman, Helen Hunt and Sharon Stone catapult us
into the future...
...And who knows what kind of SKIN the future will bring...?
