'Real Housewives of New York' Star Covers Playboy

Real Housewives of New York star Kelly Bensimon is baring her body on the March cover of Playboy.

Apparently, she’s “thrilled…to show the world that a 41-year-old mother of two can be sexy!"

The spread was shot by her famous photographer ex, Giles Bensimon (if you watch America’s Next Top Model, he has been featured on the show numerous times) because she “knew he would make me look beautiful and sexy. I hope I made Hef proud!"

When asked how she prepared for the shoot, she claimed she didn’t do much.

“I literally drank beer — Corona — and ate chicken wings for two weeks!"

Not exercising for the shoot helped the housewife to show off her natural body and shape – something that she is proud of.

"I'm pretty full in those pictures, but I like it. That's really me. That's what I look like. It's real," she added. "I want people to enjoy their life, not be starving and going to get a colonic because they think they need to be skinnier."

The issue is on stands now.
