As We Count Down to the 81st Annual Academy Awards on February 22nd, Mr Skin Pays Tribute to the Twenty Actresses Who Took Home Oscar Gold for Films in Which They Flashed Flesh


Yesterday we gave praise to Helen Hunt, who took home the Oscar for Best Actress in a Leading Role in 1998. That year, for the first time in movie-nudity history, both actresses who sashayed up to the podium to accept an Academy Award had dropped their duds for their winning performance. Taking home the honors for Best Actress in a Supporting Role that year was Kim Basinger, who won for L.A. Confidential. The film ranks near the bottom of Kim's nude rsum, but only because it contains just a sliver of Kim's bottom. But delve into this Oscar-winning beauty's skinography, and you'll understand why the members of the Academy stood up ad saluted her.
