Flanagan: I want to go nude for Playboy
Former 'Coronation Street' star Helen Flanagan wants to pose nude for Playboy magazine.
The 23-year-old stunner – who posed completely topless for a photoshoot for the first time earlier this year - is keen to bare all for the publication and follow in the footsteps of her idol, the late Marilyn Monroe.
She said: “I’d love to do Playboy. I mean, Marilyn Monroe did Playboy and she’s my idol.
“I’ve always enjoyed modelling — you can play with it and have fun and all my work is tasteful.
“I just genuinely love Marilyn Monroe. My Marilyn tattoo is personal. It made me feel better.
“There aren’t that many people that I’d say were my absolute idols nowadays.”
The blonde beauty admits she has had a tough 12 months, which has seen her break up with her on/off boyfriend Scott Sinclair before getting back together with the footballer and getting locked in a room while her home was ransacked, but the actress wants to put all that behind her in 2014.
She said: "This year has definitely had its highs and lows. There was a time in the summer when Scott and I broke up that was really awful.
“It was difficult living out our relationship in the public eye. Scott and I have been together for such a long time.
“Nobody is perfect, no one. Especially when they are young and learning, I’m not perfect.
“Since we got back together, we’ve both changed and matured.
“When you have time apart, you have time to change and I feel like it’s a completely different relationship now. It works better.”
“There is a lot of love between us and we’re happy.”
And the couple are so in love they are planning to start a family next year.
Helen added to The Sun newspaper: “I think we’ll start trying next summer. One would be lovely — I don’t care what sex they are as long as they are healthy. But I’m a girly girl so it would be nice to have a daughter.”
“I’d be such a crazy mum, can you imagine? I’d be like something out of 'Ab Fab'!”
