Sharleen Spiteri: I won't strip for Playboy

Texas singer was offered a fortune to pose for the men's magazine

Sharleen Spiteri prefers to keep her clothes on

Sharleen Spiteri has revealed that she turned down the offer to appear naked in Playboy.

‘No amount of cash is going to be enough to persuade me to get my kit off,’ she says. ‘I can’t say exactly how much was on offer, but it was a fantastically huge amount.’

The 40-year-old Texas singer says she's especially against the idea now she's older.

‘When I had the body for it, I was constantly asked to pose naked. I refused then, so why should I agree to do it now?

‘OK, Farrah Fawcett did it at 50,’ she tells Live. ‘She looked like she had the body of a 20-year-old but her face looked like Godzilla’s.’
