Playboy
Karina Smirnoff has been planning her upcoming wedding to Detroit Tigers pitcher Brad Penny.Karina Smirnoff has ditched the glitter and fringe often worn on the dance floor to bare all in the pages of Playboy.
The "Dancing with the Stars" pro, who currently appears on season 12 of the ABC hit series with partner Ralph Macchio, poses au natural in an 8-page pictorial inside the May issue of the men's magazine.
"As a dancer I've always embraced my body. I'm thrilled to show off my strong, toned physique in the pages of Playboy and celebrate my sexiness," says Smirnoff, who flaunts her figure in a sheer, barely-there bodysuit and thigh-high fishnet stockings on the cover.
Playboy honcho Hugh Hefner was the first to reveal Smirnoff would be featured in the magazine's May issue, calling the photos "unforgettable."

And while it's hard to deny Smirnoff exudes sexiness in the new photos, the 32-year-old Ukranian beauty says her appeal comes from elsewhere.
"To me, sexy is the confident energy a person produces," she tells Playboy. "Sexy is the comfortable feeling of being who you are. Sexy is not just having beautiful lips, legs and arms; it's beyond that. Sexy is soul."
Though Smirnoff is the first "DWTS" professional to strip down for Playboy, she joins a list of present and past contestants who have appeared in the nudie magazine.
Kendra Wilkinson, who is currently competing on the ABC show, gained notoriety as a Playboy beauty, thanks to being one of Hefner's ex-girlfriends. Former competitors Pamela Anderson, Lisa Rinna and Joanna Krupa have also posed for the magazine.
