Charisma Carpenter

The ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ and ‘Angel’ actress bared all for her June 2004 cover shot.

She lit the issue on fire with a 10-page spread that wowed readers.

She later said about her shoot: "I did Playboy for a very specific reason. Not only was it a good financial move, but it was about the place I was at in my life. I had just had my son and I'd gained 50 pounds during pregnancy. I wanted to get back to my old self. I wanted to feel desirable. So I thought, 'What if I went full throttle'?"
