Harry Potters Scarlett Byrne Poses Nude for Playboy

Publish date: 2024-05-06

Buh-bye, Hogwarts! Harry Potter actress Scarlett Byrne is stripping down for Playboy’s March/April 2017 issue. In the black-and-white shots, Byrne, who played Pansy Parkinson in the Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows Part 1 and 2, bares her booty while looking seductively at the camera.

“I’m very proud to be a part of the March/April issue of Playboy. I penned a short essay along with my pictorial titled, ‘The Feminist Mystique.’ A big thank you to @Playboy, the creative team, and @cooperbhefner for such a unique opportunity. #NakedIsNormal,” the Vampire Diaries actress, 26, wrote on Instagram, along with one of her shots on Monday, February 13.

As previously reported, Hugh Hefner’s son, Cooper Hefner — who also happens to be engaged to Byrne — revealed in a statement on Monday, February 13, that Playboy is bringing back nudity after the publication’s short-lived ban on naked photos. 

“I’ll be the first to admit that the way in which the magazine portrayed nudity was dated, but removing it entirely was a mistake,” Cooper, 25, who serves as Playboy’s chief creative officer, explained in a post published on Playboy’s website. “Nudity was never the problem because nudity isn’t a problem. Today we’re taking our identity back and reclaiming who we are.”

Thank You!
