Photo: Here Is Kate Moss's Awkward Playboy Debut

One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

This morning we received the above photo from Playboy, which shows Kate Moss's upcoming pictorial for the magazine (her debut, which she'll go nude for). It hits newsstands this Friday, coming just before the magazine’s 60th anniversary January/February 2014 issue, and right before Moss's 40th birthday.

But why did they make her look like she's reenacting an awkward scene from Secretary, or about to get a rectal exam, or like she's crawling into the mouths of one of those Tremors worms, or riding a Wile E. Coyote rocket, or like she just murdered another Bunny and crawled into her outfit... And how does Kate keep so tan in foggy London town?

This has Photoshop contest written all over it—feel free to think of the bunny tail as a thought bubble.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.

Instead, we answer to you and our communities. We are free to follow facts wherever they lead and to hold power to account without fear or favor.
