Vote! The sexiest nude magazine covers

Barbadian hottie Rihanna was recently named the sexiest woman alive by Esquire magazine. The singer retured the favour by posing nude for the magazine's November cover.

A glistening Rihanna is seen sitting with one of her legs concealing her modesty while two stray leaves cling to her body.

This new cover reminds us of the ways Hollywood actresses have ruffled feathers and fired imaginations by posing nude on magazine covers.

Reality show star and socialite Kim Kardashian has a derriere so perfect, skeptics have often wondered if she pads them up.

I think this smoking picture of her on the cover of W magazine pretty much lays all doubts to rest. New husband Kris Humphries is one lucky guy.

We just don't know how she does it! At 42, Jennifer Aniston looked mystically youthful and had us all gawking when she posed for GQ wearing nothing else bit a tie.

She does know how to accessorise.

Actresses Rosario Dawson and Rose McGowan out a spin in femme fatale by teaming their birthday suits with ammo as they appear on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine.

Seriously explosive, this.

English goddess Rachel Weisz made for an arresting sight when she graced the cover of Esquire magazine back in April 2004, with a snake wrapped around her.

Former Transformers hottie Mega Fox, who was unceremoniously kicked out of the hit franchise and promptly replaced by Victoria Secret model Rosie Huntington Whitley, fired up a Maxim edition back in the days of glory.

She's still got it though.

Bootylicious Jennifer Lopez was one of the celebs to grace the cover of GQ magazine.

The sheets covering her lend the picture a lived-in, warn feel. The rest of the magic is pure J-Lo.

Actress Eva Mendes has one of the best bodies in Hollywood and knows how to flaunt it too.

The actress gives a disarming come-hither look for a Maxim cover. What a tease!

Jessica Alba posing nude for a magazine is a call for celebration. She isn't one of the hottest bods around for nothing.

The Fantastic Four actress gives us an eyeful on a GQ cover.

Actres Kate Hudson, who recently gave birth to a son, has inherited free spirit and feisty nature from mom Goldie Hawn.

And this magazine cover is evidence enough. 

English rose Kate Winslet loves her curvaceous body and we adore her for that. She brings personality to the cover in a white jacket and heels.

Singer/actress Christina Aguilera lives on the wild side and this cover is a clear proof.

Fishnets and a guitar and the Burlesque actress is set for a hot photo shoot.

Demi Moore brought the trend in vogue by stripping thrice for covers. In this Vanity Fair photo, the actress's body was painted on as she posed nude.

We are all for aesthetics.
