Playboy magazine has shot back at Jessica Alba's claims that they implied she posed naked by placing her on their cover, insisting that many other stars have graced the page without appearing nude in the publication.
Playboy received a threatening letter from Alba's lawyers after it published a promotional image of her in bikini from one of her movies. Alba claims the choice of front cover insinuates she appears nude or semi-nude in the magazine
"Playboy has violated my personal rights and blatantly misled the public, who might think I had given them permission to put me on their cover when I didn't," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.
However, Playboy insist they placed her on the cover because she won a readers poll as being the "sexiest star of the year" and she is among other stars who grace the cover, but do not pose naked.
