Nudity

When "Marco Polo" producers needed a male cast member to drop trou and show it all for season 2, Rick Yune took one GIANT step ... toward destroying a little myth.

Yune plays the leader Kaidu on the Netflix show, and the writers gave him a meaty nude scene. It's kinda like that famous "Game of Thrones" scene -- Rick was surrounded by fire as he walked on hot coals. But, unlike Emilia Clarke, Rick never flinched at doing the scene.

Sources on set tell us the Korean-American actor actually couldn't wait to shoot episode 5, and you'll see why in this video. We're told there were NO prosthetics on set, and no special effects applied in editing.

We can't show you ALL the natural goods, but trust us, there's plenty. The takeaway: don't be small-minded ... when it comes to stereotypes.

Kanye West's naked homage just got weirder, courtesy of showman Jeff Beacher ... who re-shot the image from the "Famous" music video -- complete with himself as Kim Kardashian!

Never one to miss a chance to promote -- Jeff got some of the stars from Beacher's Madhouse together under the sheets for the hysterical shot. Rumor is the Madhouse is coming back to Hollywood's Roosevelt Hotel soon ... so, we're guessing Jeff saw this as the perfect way to introduce ... mini-Taylor Swift!

No one from Kanye's "Famous" image was spared in the spoof. Amber Rose got the blow-up doll treatment, and Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour is merely a skeleton.

Ray J got the shortest end of the stick though.

If Kanye West wanted to get under people's skin with his "Famous" music video ... it worked, and now he's got Ray J's manager on his ass ... making serious threats.

Ray was in downtown L.A. when we asked what he thought of his nude appearance in Kanye's vid. Watch this -- Ray doesn't have much to say, but his music manager, Wack 100, said a lot, and sent a message to West -- "Tell that n**** he a long way from Chicago."

There was a lot more -- and it's obvious that something about the video has rubbed Ray J and his team the wrong way.

If you forgot, Wack is the same guy who manages The Game, and knocked out Stitches with one punch last year. Sooo ... there's that.

Irish eyes are smiling ... 'cause Conor McGregor is taking it all off for ESPN The Magazine's Body Issue.

ESPN just revealed its list of athletes who have signed on to go naked for the magazine's annual spread ... and as usual, it includes athletes of all shapes and sizes.

Among the models ... Von Miller, Greg Louganis, Dwyane Wade and Vince Wilfork.

That's right ... all 325 pounds of VW are coming your way!

Here's a few more stars from the list:

Antonio Brown (NFL), Courtney Conlogue (surfer), Christen Press (soccer), April Ross (beach volleyball), Allysa Seely (paratriathlete), Elena Delle Donne (WNBA), Jake Arrieta (MLB).

Prince once pulled an epic move on a nearly naked dancer in a club, but it's not at all what you'd expect from a singer with a rep for being a sex demigod ... according to rapper Talib Kweli.

Talib hit up N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN's "Drink Champs" podcast on Play.it this week and talked about the run-in he had with Prince at a Hollywood party. He says there were naked dancers everywhere and Prince -- a Jehovah's Witness at that point -- approached one of them with a financial proposal.

Jose Canseco's biggest contribution to humanity continues to astonish us ... his daughter, Josie, who's turning up the hotness once again ... this time with a semi-nude Playboy photo spread.

Heidi Klum adhered to an age-old adage -- when in France, do as the French do.

Klum and BF Vito Schnabel had some fun in the sun Wednesday in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. Vito was pretty grabby as they soaked up some rays and took a dip in the Mediterranean Sea.

Kim Kardashian made it abundantly clear she knows exactly what pays the bills -- her naked body, and she's vowing to give you more of it.

Kim K earned the first ever "Break the Internet" honor at the Webby Awards Monday night in New York, and did her own version of a mic drop when she accepted the trophy.

Kim was honored for her powerful social media presence, which includes her massively popular Kimoji app and mobile game.

Check out her speech. Kobe's got, "Mamba out" ... and now Kim has these 5 words.

Emilia Clarke plus nudity ... equals a 'GoT' bloodbath, according to the Khaleesi herself.

We caught up with the "Game of Thrones" star at LAX and, wait for it ... SPOILER ALERT!!

We asked Emilia about Sunday's gruesome episode which required her to strip down for the first time since season 3. She's been very outspoken about equal nekkid time for male and female stars of the show, so last night's episode was a big deal.

Gronk isn't the only future Hall of Fame tight end to bare his buns to the world ... 'cause NFL legend Tony Gonzalez says he publicly stripped down too ... but for a good cause.

Gonzalez was out at Bristol Farms when we asked for his thoughts on Gronk's nude shoot in GQ ... and if he'd ever strip down and show off the goods himself.

Check out the clip -- Tony lets us know he beat Gronk to the punch ... saying him and the lovely wife took it all off for PETA way before Gronk actually showed Hailey Clauson his scoring machine.

Take a look below ... Tony in all his glory.

Uh-oh Shakira ... the hottest ass in the universe might be trying to score with your baby daddy ... 'cause Miss BumBum is putting her two best cheeks forward to get the attention of soccer superstar Pique.

Suzy Cortez -- the reigning Miss BumBum (basically the best butt in Brazil) -- has been targeting Pique on the 'Gram ... posting sexy pictures wearing his jersey ... and tagging Pique in the photos.

It wasn't exactly sliding into Pique's DMs, butt it signals she's a huge fan ... and fans have been known to do wild things for the players they love ... aka have sex with them.

BTW -- it's not Suzy's first time on the pitch ... she was reportedly blocked on IG by Lionel Messi and his GF for sending the Argentine footballer some sexy shots a while ago.

Get that block button ready, Shakira.

Rob Gronkowski went on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" Thursday night and said he was NOT fully naked during the GQ photo shoot ... despite what TMZ Sports reported -- but it's a curious situation.

We reported earlier in the day that RG was in his birthday suit during the racy boat photo with supermodel Hailey Clauson -- but only after a GQ publicist squarely told us in an email, "Yes, he was naked."

Hours later, Gronkowski refuted the claim on 'Kimmel' -- saying he was wearing a tiny Speedo that covered his junk.

We called the GQ rep back -- and spoke with her boss (the communications director for GQ) who gave us 3 different and intriguing explanations.

First, she said Gronk was "definitely naked on some parts of the shoot."

Then she said, "The info I got is what I gave you" ... suggesting there may have been a cover up over not covering up.

Finally, the plot totally thickened with her 3rd point -- "Maybe he didn't want to talk about being naked on Kimmel."

9:23 AM PT -- We asked GQ if Gronk was really fully naked for the shoot.

The answer -- "Yes, he was naked."

Boom.

So, here's a pic from Gronk's highly anticipated GQ article ... in which the photo shoot motivation was apparently, "Surprise! Here's my dong!"

The flashee in the shot is supermodel Hailey Clauson -- who teamed up with the Pats tight end for the cover of the upcoming June issue of the magazine.

The guy who wrote the article about Gronk spent some time embedded with the NFL star and described his life the following way:

"Gronkowski seems to exist in a permanent shower of champagne spray and nightclub-foam-party foam ... all without ever seeming like a creepy douchebag.”

#GronkJustBeingGronk

Alessandra Ambrosio's so damn hot she turned a wardrobe malfunction into a work of art.

The Brazilian supermodel looked flawless at a secret beach photo shoot, despite the peekaboo. Check out the photos, and thank God for wind.

Usher just broke the cardinal rule of taking a naked selfie by posting a tad bit more than he probably realized on Snapchat.

Ursh snapped the pic Thursday and captioned it "blowin off steam" with an emoji covering his junk. Upon closer look it was hard to ignore that the emoji failed to cover all of his man parts and the tip of his dong was left sticking out.

We had to retouch it a bit since it's technically a d*** pic, but you can use your imagination and probably Google and find the real thing.

"Strong" trainer Adam Von Rothfelder has become instantly famous as the breakout star of the new show ... so like half of Hollywood it's not a big shocker nude photos have surfaced.

Turns out Adam posed nude for an art project and the pics are ... impressive. The honchos on "Strong" were a little upset ... not because of the pics but because Adam didn't fess up before he was hired.

We're told Adam explained he didn't think it was a big deal because it's not pornographic. Producers saw it his way, so he won't be punished. It helps he's also a big reason people are watching.

Dave Broome -- the creator of 'Biggest Loser' and "Strong" -- is a big, big fan of Adam's work ... telling us, "I am actually rather envious."
