In celebration of Mexico's Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe, model Maria Florencia Onori posed on the cover of Playboy as the Virgin Mary obehind a headline that translates to mean 'We adore you, Mary'. O Holy night, your boobs are slightly showing.
Whoops, a nude model strongly resembling the Virgin Mary (in look & dress) appeared on the cover of Mexico's Playboy magazine — only days before a major Mexican holiday honoring the Saint.

Tech Buzz Always wanted to flash your naughties in the pages of Playboy? Well, now the nudie mag (we mean “gentleman’s monthly”) has partnered with YouTube to pick a naked lady straight out of the teh Internetz to celebrate its 55th anniversary issue. With a tepid audience response and a dismally low number of video submissions, it looks like Grandpa Hef might want to stop trying to figure out “this damn computerbox.”
Tech Buzz She’s been named as Playboy’s 2008 Cyber Girl of the Year. She loves Final Fantasy because of all the “sidequests.” Which reminds me: RPG porn does exist (and is not safe for work, of course)!
