Sophia Loren refuses to go nude

**MaryJane** · July 18th, 2006, 01:41 PM

Silver screen icon Sophia Loren will be sexy, but not naked, in next year's (07) Pirelli calendar.

The 71-year-old actress will appear alongside Penelope Cruz and Naomi Watts in the legendary publication, amid rumours she may be stripping completely nude.

But, fresh from the shoot, Loren insists she protected her modesty.

She says, "The photo session was a lot of fun, and I was very surprised to be asked - but I'm not naked and it is discreet, although I hope, still sexy I can't bear being seen nude. I'm not exactly a tiny woman and when Sophia Loren is naked, there is a lot of nakedness."

A reflective piece of prose-poetry for some readers here.-Ron Price, Tasmania

CORUSCANT ENERGY1

Once ranked number six on Playboy’s 100 sexiest women of the twentieth century and also named the most beautiful woman in the world, Sophia Loren has been acting in movies all my Baha’i life. In the year my mother first had contact with the Baha’i Faith, 1953/4, Loren acted in four films. She had just started her acting career in the early fifties. In the year I joined this Faith, 1959/60, Loren acted in six films; in the year my pioneering life began, 1962/3, she acted in another six. One of these latter films(1962) was Boccaccio where she stared with Anita Eckberg. She won the first Oscar for a foreign language film in 1961. Some regard Loren as the most celebrated actress of the last fifty years(1953-2003). This month Loren turned 70. Both she and I are getting old. -Ron Price with thanks to "The Official Sophia Loren Website," September, 2004 and 1 With appreciation to Roger White for this title from "Death of the Greengrocer," Whitewash, Haifa, 1982, p.22.

This icon of the cinema
during my pioneering life,
this woman of grace, elegance,
beauty and charm, unpretentious,
as sexy, as seductive, as they get,
she came out of the woodwork
and blazed across the screen
and blew me away, yet again,
one of thousands of beauties
that played in the background
of my life, all my life really,
right from my first memories
when I was only three or four,
before breasts bud, before groins
fill out, jostle and strain toward
their imperative destinations.

And they still blaze and dance,
still jostle and strain keeping
the concupiscible appetite on heat,
always wanting more than I can get
or should get or would get or could get.
What’s the big idea anyway?
Is it some kind of cosmic joke:
sticking this incredible pulchritude
in front of my nose and saying:
you are only supposed to look.
Don’t touch; it’s only for show!
It’s to reproduce the species;
that’s why there’s such awesome
force here. I’ll give you a taste,
but don’t ask for more than your lot,
your share of this coruscant energy
that pops and glitters, spurts and tangles
to achieve life’s unthwarted, fecund purpose.

^Thats great!

I love Sophia; Ok, maybe I dont want to see her naked but she's still gorgeous and was a total knock out back in the day.

praise the lord!
can't stand this vulgar old cow.

**myrnaloy** · November 12th, 2007, 11:02 AM

i think she is beautiful!

**TheONe** · November 12th, 2007, 11:04 AM

No need to EVER see a 70+ year old person naked...NEVER!

^What are you going to do when your wife is 70?

My dad got married at 80 (they were both 80) and he's just fine with her body. They had both been attractive people when younger.

I think Sophia is right to be modest though.

**MrsDark** · November 12th, 2007, 11:57 PM

I bet even naked that Sophia looks better than most average women 20-30 yrs her junior.

(But Sophia hon, I think you can keep it on. You've earned it.

)

Sophia was drop dead gorgeus BUT to get back to me...Hopefully I'm expired by then or else I'll just trade her in for an new model...it's like bread...the freshest is the best! lol, But seriously I can't imagine myself being physically attracted to a 70 or 80 year old woman even when I'm that age...but I guess time will tell, also hopefully we are still in love so that would overshadow alot of things

Ever stop to think that you'll probably have to have money for that?

**Dixie Normos** · November 13th, 2007, 12:02 PM

...and the world applauds her decision.

Exactly!! And hopefully your wife's love for you will make up for the fact that she, too, has an 80-year-old wrinkly for a husband!
