Jenny McCarthy, who’s played a reoccurring role in Two and a Half Men, Tripping the Rift, and appeared in the film John Tucker Must Die, will be appearing nude in Playboy, the New York Daily News reports.

The 39-year-old McCarthy plans on taking it off for the risqué magazine “before she turns 40 in November,” the paper says.

This isn’t the first time she’s taken it all off for the publication. According to IMDB, McCarthy was a “struggling model” until her 1993 Playboy appearance, in the October issue. The News reports that she “soon became a fan favorite,” becoming Playmate of the Year in 1994 and reappearing in the magazine in 1996 and 2005.

Lately, McCarthy has gained notoriety not so much for her body, but for her views. She’s the head of an anti-vaccination crusade, based on research—recently proved faulty—that linked vaccines to autism.

Sadly, McCarthy and many other parents have fought against vaccinating children based on the research of Dr. Andrew Wakefield, which a British journal later found to be an “elaborate fraud,” according to CNN.

According to the Washington Post, McCarthy “will next host NBC’s Love in the Wild, a dating show that takes place in the Dominican Republic.’”
