'Allure' Spotlights Star Moms in Naked Photoshoot

Published

Hollywood's hottest moms came together to inspire healthy body image by posing nude for Alluremagazine, and ET has a sneak peek at the issue.

While these actresses may have stylists to make them look their best on the red carpet, when the clothes come off, so does some of their confidence. "My boobs do make me a little bit self-conscious," said About a Boy actress Minnie Driver, 44. "I had a baby and things really do change. I would rather go bottomless on the beach than topless."

"I was both nervous and excited, which I think are realistic emotions when you're going to take your clothes off in front of other people," said Veronica Mars star Kristen Bell, 33.

Allure's editor-in-chief Linda Wells explained the purpose of the special issue, telling ET, "I always want -- with the nude issue -- for women to look at the magazine and think, 'I feel good about my body.'"

A couple simple tricks for looking good in the buff came from 43-year-old mother of two, Nia Long. "There has to be an arch in the back," said the Best Man Holiday actress, adding that there also has to be "hair covering the nippy action."

Allure's annual "Look Better Naked" issue hits stands on Tuesday, April 22, 2014.
