Celebs who stripped naked on their birthday like Amanda Holden…from Kourtney Kardashian to Jennifer Aniston’s racy cover
MOST of us celebrate our birthdays with a gathering of our nearest and dearest and opening a special present or two.
But in the world of celebrity, the ultimate way to mark it is to take the phrase ‘birthday suit’ very literally.
Today Amanda Holden celebrated turning 53 – and her age-defying physique – by stripping off, sharing the nude photo of herself on Instagram.
The Heart FM presenter went totally starkers for the saucy snap on the edge of a cliff, which she captioned “birthday suit”.
Amanda, who has repeatedly spoken out about her refusal to cover up, previously said: “I don’t see the point in growing old gracefully.”
It’s not the first cheeky treat she’s dropped for fans on her birthday either – three years ago she posed nude on top of a three-tiered cake, decorated with roses.
She wrote: “How did This happen! Half a century… time flies.”
Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda is the latest in a long line of famous faces to bear all to embrace another age milestone.
From Jennifer Aniston to Gwyneth Paltrow and Robbie Williams, here are the stars who chose to celebrate their big day in the buff.
Nicki Minaj
To mark turning 39, Nicki Minaj decided to get in on the racy trend by posing fully nude in 2021.
The rapper, sporting bright pink hair, straddled a giant teddy bear as she covered her breasts with her hands.
She wrote: “Say Happy Birthday to da Bad Guy.”
Jennifer Aniston
Ahead of Jennifer Aniston’s 40th birthday, the former Friends star posed nude in the December 2008 issue of GQ magazine.
The actress was completely naked – apart from a well-placed neck tie that covered her modesty.
Jennifer turned 40 a few months later, in February 2009.
Gwyneth Paltrow
It’s somewhat of an annual tradition for Gwyneth to pose naked on her birthday.
In 2021 she celebrated her 49th birthday by sharing a picture of herself in the bath, and the year before, she ran free and showed off her naturist tendencies, prancing around in the woods.
Never missing an opportunity to plug her own brand, She wrote: “In nothing but my birthday suit today… thank you all so much for the birthday wishes and thank you to @goop‘s insanely amazing brand new body butter for making me think I can still get my kit off.”
In 2022, Gwyneth marked her 50th by spraying herself in metallic gold body paint for a Goldfinger-inspired photoshoot.
Liz Hurley
Liz Hurley has hardly aged a day in the past 30 years, and to prove it, she stripped off in the bath for her 55th birthday.
The actress looked sensational as she used the bubbles to cover her modesty.
The star captioned the post: “Happy Birthday to me. This is the fifth birthday we’ve celebrated during lockdown amongst my little group- including my mother’s 80th and my son’s 18th.
“Grateful to be happy and healthy and to have the best family and friends. Here’s hoping real life starts again one day”.
Kate Moss
When Kate Moss turned 40 back in 2013, she posed as a Playboy bunny for the iconic magazine.
She was seen donning black satin bunny ears, a bunny corset, French cuffs and a collar – all topped off with a pair of black stilettos.
The 18-page spread was to celebrate Playboy’s 60th anniversary, and it included an interview with Kate conducted by singer Tom Jones.
At the time of the photo shoot, Kate was married to rocker Jamie Hince.
Kylie Minogue
Queen of Pop Kylie Minogue gave fans an eyeful back in 2018 in a racy snap to mark turning 50.
The starkers star beamed as she looked away from the camera while holding a bejewelled guitar.
She wrote: “And so a new decade begins. How thankful I am for the opportunities life has afforded me. 50….. Let’s go!”
That same year Kylie released her 14th studio album Golden and performed tour dates in the UK.
Lindsay Lohan
In 2019, to celebrate her 33rd birthday, Lindsay Lohan posed in what she was wearing when she came into the world.
Carefully positioning her knee to cover her modesty, the Mean Girls star simply accessorised with a pair of studs and some gold bracelets.
She captioned the post with a simple pink bow and birthday cake emojis.
Kourtney Kardashian
Kourtney Kardashian thought the best way to celebrate her 38th birthday in 2019 would be to strip off.
Sharing a sexy snap of herself in water, showing off her curvaceous bod, she simply wrote: “Birthday suit.”
Robbie Williams
Robbie Williams proved it’s not just the women who like stripping off for their birthday
Celebrating his 41st birthday in 2015, the Angel hitmaker shared a cheeky snap of himself in the buff, covering his privates with his hands.
“Do you think my b***-**d can #BreakTheInternet on my birthday?” he joked.
Olivia Bowen
Having flaunted their toned physiques on Love Island back in 2016, stripping off was nothing for Olivia and Alex Bowen.
The couple, who wed two years after meeting on the ITV reality show, shared a snap of themselves naked in two standalone baths to mark her turning 26 in 2020.
Olivia beamed while facing away from the camera, revealing her toned back and sideboob, as well as two bird tattoos.
She captioned the post: “Love a birthday bath with bae. Here’s to 26.”
Paulina Porizkova
As a former supermodel, Paulina Porizka was more than used to fans starring at her stunning physique.
But she drew considerable attention on her 58th birthday last year, when she shared a naked snap in bed, in which she bizarrely cradled a blue cuddly toy.
“I begin my 58th year with nothing but sunshine and a smile,” Paulina captioned the post in April last year.
She used the hashtags ‘ThisIs50’, ‘NoFilter’ and ‘GreyPride’, and fans were quick to proclaim the Czech-born model “radiant”.
John Stamos
John Stamos has been a fixture on American TV screens since the Eighties – but to mark his 60th he made a rather surprising decision.
The actor, best known for the show Full House, shared a snap of himself naked outside in August last year.
Pulling a surprised expression as if he had been caught unaware, John posed in an outdoor shower with brick walls and flowers hanging from a pagoda.
Fans commented “have mercy” – the catchphrase of his Full House character Uncle Jesse – on the post, which was captioned “the other side of 60”.
