Posing For Playboy At 40 Is Empowering?
Cindy Margolis, actress, former Price is Right model, national spokeswoman for Resolve: The National Infertility Association, and winner of the first Celebrity Cooking Showdown, has agreed to pose for Playboy.
According to the Associated Press:
"The mother of three told The Associated Press that she finally agreed to pose for the magazine when they called on her 40th birthday….
After turning down offers to pose for the magazine in the past, Margolis said she accepted this time because she felt posing nude at the age of 40 is empowering.
‘In the past it would have been for gratuitous reasons,’ she said."
Right. Now it’s not gratuitous. Because she’ s 40. And that makes it empowering. Would have been gratuitous at 35 or 37 or 39. But not now, not at 40. Hmm.

Well, okay, 40 is the odd age to decide it is empowering, but it is a milestone age.
When you hit 40, don’t you want to go nuts and do something fun?
It’s Playboy. I’m sure it’ll be a tastefully done ‘empowerment.’
Wasn’t she a download queen at one point?
I guess celebrities will say anything now to get attention, trying to squeeze a blurb out in between Tom Cruise insanity episodes.
Gratuitous? Nah, how could nekkid pictures ever be gratuitous? I guess Z-list “celebs” will do anything for ink. Who the heck is Cindy Margolis anyway? And what’s next, Celebrity Leg Shaving?
Jeremy: Yeah, but my idea of fun would be, well, less public.
MTLB: Tasteful, of course
If someone wants to pose for such a publication then go ahead, but don’t come up with some artificial reason as to why this is suddenly “empowering” when that apparently wasn’t the case 6 months ago.
Ike: Hey, it’s going to be hard to compete with Cruise for quite a long time. And how do *you* know she was the download queen?
Donna: You know, if it’s Celebrity Leg Shaving in the buff, I’m sure someone’s trying to shop the concept around right now on pay-per-view.
So when can Ike and I look forward to you and Donna appearing in ‘PlayCommunicator’ then?
“So when can Ike and I look forward to you and Donna appearing in ‘PlayCommunicator’ then?”
Probably as soon as Rubel does a shoot for PlayBlogger.
MTLB: Lol!
Hey, looks like the Media Orchard is rubbing off on your style (ha-ha).
Kami: Busted. Yeah, thank goodness the gig is over at the end of the week.
All I can say is that you are a saint, and I have this vacation coming up…
