Laura Grady
Nude

Mr. Skin would rather see Laura Grady under the covers than under the radar. Alas, her acting career has kept her in the latter. Decades ago, the promising ingénue made her screen debut in the little seen movie On the Make (1989). She then took a decade off to bloom blissfully before bouncing back with a bit part in Bowfinger (1999) starring Steve Martin. Ms. Grady re-teamed with Steve to play a Cosmetic Girl in Shopgirl (2005) alongside Claire Danes in the title role. Perhaps if the romantic drama was called Cosmetic Girl, Laura would be a household name by now. Instead, she was hired as Piper Perabo’s be-thonged body double in the romantic dramedy Coyote Ugly (2000). Yes, those are Laura’s bare breasts that can be seen during a steamy sex scene! At least the arousing actress got credit for displaying her naked T&A when she posed as an aversion-therapy model in Human Nature (2001). In fact, her luminous nudity is the movie’s saving grace. Seemingly still intent on breaking into the mainstream, Laura portrayed a hotel hostess in the race romp Bringing Down the House (2003). Alas, the only thing she exposed was her comic timing. Most recently, the pretty performer popped up in This Is Our Christmas (2019). The holiday flick is so wholesome, it won both the Family Film Award and the Golden Halo Award. That’s great, but how will Ms. Grady ever pick up one of our Anatomy Awards if she stops flashing her flesh on film?
