Warning, Lisa Rinna’s Playboy pic is probably NSFW!

So, Lisa Rinna in Playboy – gutsy or stupid? I guess Lisa Rinna’s plastic surgery and Lisa Rinna’s diet and workout are finally paying off. Is it a good idea for the 45-year-old Lisa Rinna to be in Playboy?

“I am really comfortable with my body,” says Lisa. Well, I am comfortable with my body as well, is it a legitimate excuse to take naked pictures of myself for the whole world to see? I do not think so. In any case, if you care to know the rest of her excuses, here is a recent interview with her in which she explains the whole deal. Oh, by the way, Lisa Rinna’s Playboy pics are hot, so maybe it was not a total waste of photo paper.

How did you prepare? The first thing you think is, “I have to train really hard and go on a diet.” Then the photographer said, “I don’t want you to work out for three weeks.”

Why not? She wanted me soft and looking like a woman, not hard and muscled. I trusted her, even though it was hard.

Are you happy with the way the photos turned out? I feel really good about myself. I’ve worked really hard, so why not celebrate it?

What part are you most proud to show off? The overall package. After doing Dancing With the Stars, I never stopped dancing. It brought out muscles I didn’t know were there! But I come from very good genes. My mother and father are thin and look great at 80 and 86.

What message do you hope this sends to other women? I hope it inspires women to feel good about themselves in their forties, that you can still be viable and sexy. Not everyone can have Madonna’s body, I’ve got my body, and I can make it the best it can be.

Would you pose again, maybe in another 10 years? Probably not, but I’m never going to say never because I thought I’d never do this one. Part of me is a little rebellious, so I’m just crazy enough to do it! [via]
