Anna Faris Does ‘Playboy’ Magazine

Manages to keep her clothes on, tho
August 14th, 2008

Anna Faris, the star of the upcoming new comedy The House Bunny, is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Playboy magazine … tho, unlike some other Playboy covergirls, Anna stays fully clothed and does not appear in the mag’s centerfold with a staple thru her belly-button. In the mag, she opens up about her self-esteem issues and a bit about her raunchy comedic talents:


Anna Faris plays a Playboy bunny in the upcoming film The House Bunny and posed (clothed) for the September cover of Playboy magazine – but she says she wasn’t always so eager to show off her physique. In high school, “I felt unattractive, short and self-conscious about my body, and I would purposely emphasize that by doing odd things,” Faris, 31, tells Playboy. “I wore glasses, braces, odd hairdos and dumpy clothes. I was clumsy and awkward. When I was a freshman I wore a Christmas tree skirt as a cape. I couldn’t get any dates until senior year.” That’s not really a problem anymore for Faris, who was divorced from her husband, Ben Indra, in February. Neither are raunchy comedy roles – which even her parents are used to now. “When I went with my parents and brother to see Scary Movie at a Seattle strip mall the opening weekend, I was like, ‘Mom, there’s going to be a couple of points when I’m going to need you to go to the bathroom or get me popcorn. Just obey me,’” she says. “Now I’ve totally broken them in.”

Without a doubt, The House Bunny looks like it’s going to be the funniest movie of the summer, at least to me. When I first saw the trailer earlier this year I couldn’t stop laughing … there are so many things in the trailer that are laugh out loud, riotously hilarious (like, the trick she employs to remember people’s names, for example). Anna is one of my fave comedic actresses … she is very good at what she does and I don’t think she gets the attention and lurve that she deserves. I am planning on seeing The House Bunny the day it opens … tho, I might pass on picking up this issue of Playboy ;)

    Katharine McPhee is in it? Guess she finally got the acting role of her dreams!

    The premise of House Bunny bugs me - they kick her out because she’s 27, but Holly Madison is 28, and Bridget Marquardt is 34! WTF?!

    Anna Faris is underrated, I think she’s great. She was so funny in her role in the final series of Friends.
    I am looking forward to seeing this movie :)

  8. javajunko Says:

    THis woman is HILARIOUS! i love her, she is so funny and just the way she talks and acts is pure comedy genius, i wonder what she is like without the ditzy acting? it would be weird to see her act normal because she can act the part so well its almost like she’s not acting at all lol ! i hope this movie does well for her!!!

  9. Paz Says:

    This is odd. She was on Jay Leno 1 or 2 weeks ago to promote the movie, and he asked her if she would ever pose for Playboy. She said yes but with clothes.

    I couldn’t get any dates until senior year.” That’s not really a problem anymore for Faris, who was divorced from her husband, Ben Indra, in February. >>> Huh? Proving she’s dateable by pointing out she got divorced?

  10. Virginia Says:

    She is so adorable! I’ve loved her since “Hot Chick”. You’re right, she’s never been given her props.
