WOW! She is BEAUTIFUL!

I just saw her pics and all I gotta say is DAYUMMMM if I was a man she would definitely get it!!!! LOL>>>

She looks really nice. The pics are tastefully done. I especially like the ones with her body covered with the jewels. Nice.

i THINK SHE LOOKS GOOD 4 A 40 YEAR OLD

She looks very beautiful and classy; everybody’s seen titties before but this were tastefully done . I want my body to look like that at 40.

Those pics are nice. I don’t see how ppl would trip on a beautiful blk sista as opposed to some pasty YT pink meat. She looks gorgeous. She looked better than Stacy’s spread. I’m just sayin.

The jewels and mink were the shit.

Gives me Ideas…lol
She looks good

Good afternoon all!! At 40? she looks hella good,and i agree with everyone who said it was tastefully done.

Her spread is better than Stacey’s. I was lil nervous about clickin on them at work, but they were tasteful, unlike Stacey who just had her whole pussy out there like “fuck it”.

She is sooooo pretty.Go head Fancy!!!

STEWART U NASTY

I always thought she was a classy woman so I was worried when I heard about this spread. Those pictures are hot, yet tasteful…you go gurl!

she looks so goregous for a 40 year old woman but damn she let loose she looks wow! love the the mirror shot its nice.

I saw her pics last week. She is sooo beautiful!! Black women I swear are the only group of women who look even better with age.

Very beautiful.

SHE LOOKS BEAUTIFUL! I’M 37 AND I’VE HAD TWO KIDS AND I DONT LOOK CLOSE TO GABRIELLE. YOU GO GIRL! MINDS WELL DO IT NOW AFTER HAVING THOSE TWO TWINS YOU MAY NOT LOOK AS GOOD. SO DO IT NOW!

Yeah, your right. I forgot all about that. She was one of the servant girls in “Coming To America”. She looks straight up fire in these pics. See ladys…this is what proper eatting and exericise could get you.

i forgot to say i love the jewels shot and that her, lisaraye, janet and vivica all still definitley got it for women in their early 40’s!

Yeah, your right. I forgot all about that. She was one of the servant girls in “Coming To America”. She looks straight up fire in these pics. See ladys…this is what proper eatting and exericise could get you.

The sad part is, she looks better than females my age.

WOW! She looks great, the pics are sexy yet tasteful. Her body is crazy. I’m not even 20 but i wanna look like that in my 40’s so ima start eating right. damn, go head Garcelle.

thier is nothing sexy about taking off your damn clothes

it’s only trashy

it’s more sexy to be smart and educated and have a good body that u don’t let the world to see imo

the only thing real in any of those pics is the front of her legs in the mirror shot lol

check it out for urself if you don’t believe me

Wow is looks great her body is sick I hope I look that when I am 40

I’ll give Playboy this: All their sots are TASTEFULLY done. They always get the best of everything: retouchers, make-up artists, stylists and photographers. And whenever they shoot someone who needs a weave, they get the best hairstylists to do it. None of their stuff ever looks tacky like some magazines that shall remain nameless…

[...] Beauvias shows all in Playboy, complete with NSFW shots. [...]

I saw some of the pics and they were actually tasteful. She has a really nice shape. I’m still surprised that she agreed to pose for the magazine. I’m sure men all over will be drooling.

I’m not really a fan of Playboy (or but-boty naked females of any kind) seeing that I’m a straight female but I must say Garcelle is a very beautiful black woman and the pics are very nice without being in bad taste. I guess it is true, 40 seems to be the new 20.

I really didn’t think she was famous enough to be on the cover of Playboy but congrats to her. If she feels like she’s that comfortable with showing her body to the world and wants to celebrate her womanhood, then congrats, go head and do ya thing mama.

Playboy is the classiest of the classy when it comes to nude photos. #6, you know they like to see the pink toes and pink nipps in these mags!!

She looks beautiful!!

garcelle is body is off the chain…brb..im goin to the gym!!!

She looks fierce for forty but hell black don’t crack lol! Who are her twins by…………?

Some old white man @ #40.

they were tastefully done am I the only one who’s a shoe freak I want to buy a pair of heels like that first pic. I am glad I found out I am not one of the only black chicks with one nipple smaller than the other! The diamonds and mink was gorgeous, I like!

she look iight.. lol

#40…her husband.

Diet and exercise still may NOT get you like this. Some genes are better than others.

I hear u#9…forget 40, it’d be nice to be that way now.

Wow. She ain’t “Flatcheska” no more. Obviously her old white man got some bank, b/c I can’t see how he could hold THAT down. And yes, these are much better than Stacey Dash’s. She didnt even get the cover and her saucer nips were all over the place.

Yes she is beautiful and her body is bangin-but again I never understood the reason a woman of her stature would feel the need to pose nude-private photos for herself yes-maybe but for the world to see and she is going to be giving birth soon-her children can google their mom’s name and find nude photos of her on the internet-definitely not something I would want my child to see-

my opinion and I’m entitled to it-not hating I already gave the woman her props-more puzzled than anything-

Something like this you can’t take back or undo-posing booty butt naked for the world to see ? and you are not in desperate need of money, your married, and soon to be a mother-what exactly is she trying to prove? and to whom? Hell, I always thought of her as a class act -this is similar to halle doing the sex scene in monster’s ball-completely unecessary

Do you ma-I hope that you can live with your decision and the consequences-

I can only imagine what kind of fan mail she will be getting now/or what kind of passes men will make now that they’ve seen her naked “smh”

LOL I find it funny people are talking about her nipples…wtf that’s how black women’s nipples look when they get hard..white people kill me..retarded asses!

She looks good can’t deny that..but I would have prefered if she kept it between herself and her husband..so Imma have to co-sigh with #30 KAYKAY 110%…I agree!

C-sign with you too Baily # 46..you articualted exactly what was in my mind..couldn’t have stated it better myself!

I cosign with Kay Kay, Bailey & SesameStreet.

Was this REALLY necessary ?

We already thought she was pretty…

Validation of ones Beauty IS important, but that validation should be personnel & private, coming from ones spouse.

I understand that every woman would like to be considered sexy.
But why be Pornographic with it ?

Peace

…Let me get my lotion. hahahaha

Very tasteful & she looks great! I am glad that she is happy with her decision to do this. Hopefully that won’t change.

She can get grundalized

She looks absolutely stunning! Playboy always does an exceptional job of ensuring the models are tastefully photographed.

@ 46 and anyone who agrees - I don’t understand why you are so puzzled that she posed nude? What is wrong with that? We should embrace our bodies and not think of it as taboo to expose ourselves. Her photos did not include explicit photographs of her vagina wrapped around gigantic dildos. It baffles me how the United States of America is such a sex crazed society, yet simple photos of a naked body of this nature offend people. Perhaps we should try to have the same views like other countries such as France about nudity. It is 2007 and your views are very archaic. Be proud of your body – it truly is a beautiful work of art!

It was necessary for HER…I’m pretty sure she didn’t give a damn what anyone else thought….

Those people with objections to her nude photos simply do not have the courage to pose nude THEMSELVES. To hide your insecurities, you make comments like “how will her children feel when they get older viewing this material” or “she is disrespecting herself”. Truth be told, YOU wish you had the heart to pose nude without being concerned about what other’s thought of your actions. I think you are a little envious that you do not have the gall to do something against the “norm”.

Who Dat Say Some Bout that Airbrush, Who Dat, Who Dat?

The saying is soooo true women age like wine they just get finer n finer.

#6 don’t forget she is married to a white man, lol and #4 what does age have to do with a woman looking good or having a beautiful body? because if I see one mo tore up dayum 20 yr old with 3 or 4 youngins, I’m gonna scream. Plus it’s so many young women out here without any kids and they look a hot azz mess, especially with those bellies hanging ova, so don’t even go there with the dayum age thangggggg……..Gabrielle looks fabulous, good luck to her and hubby on the twins.

Oh yea, how old is Shar? already she have been under the knife. Vivica have no kids, how many times have she been under the knife? like I said, what does age have to do with it?

This post is gonna get nasty by 5 o’clock, so I’ll say this now.

Everyone from Playboy, to Vibe airbrushes. So what’s your point?

Also, people should be able to respect each other’s opinion w/o being dubbed a “hater” or otherwise. But going along with that, people should be able to respect Garcelle’s decision w/ posing in Playboy. Even if she is comfortable with her body, I’m sure she and her husband thought about it and made the decision together. As long as they are happy with their decision and satisfied with the results, that is all that matters. As for her kids, who hasn’t seen their parents naked at least once? If she is proud of what she has done, she won’t keep it a secret after the appropriate age.

Garcelle is a beautiful Haitian sista and I am glad to see her reppin Haitian beauty, however to each his/her own in regards to being naked in front of people. If a person chooses not to bear all for the world to see that does not make them insecure, just as a person who chooses to do so is not an exhibitionist (i hope). Let us not make loaded statements like that. God bless everyone on here.

She looks damn good to be 40 years old..I don’t understand why people make such a BIG deal about being nude..its a personal choice for everyone. The pictures are very tasteful..these pictures are more complimenting then anything you really see now -a-days on the covers of KING, SOURCE, and XXL and those women are scantily clad..anyhoo I think it takes alot of security within yourself to be able to take pictures bare like this..go girl! :-p

I think she looks great. Had no idea she was that beautiful!

@ 62 - I agree with you completely!

Black is Beautiful at any Age ~ Big Ups Garcelle for Representing black women CORrectly, but expecially for the dk sisters ….and we ARE all that!

Hugh Hefner and his peoples finally realize that his magazine has gotten a little monotonous with all the white chicks gracing the pages. I don’t have anything against white women because God knows I love me some snow bunnies from time to time, but like anyhting else, people like varieties. And I must admit, the sisters he has choosen so far have not disappointed.

Showing off your body to the world doesn’t necessarily scream being secure. Actually you can refuse to show it because you’re insecure or secure enough, or flaunt it either because you’re insecure and need the world’s validation or just because you’re secure enough and don’t see the big deal. So the whole security vs. insecurities is very personal and subjective whether you show skin or not.

That being said, I find it quite interesting that 80% of this site is stigmatizing Rihanna, Ciara or Beyonce or whoever gets naked for record sales, but they’re bigging up Janet, Garcelle or Stacey Dash. I guess, past 40, if your body’s banging you get a pass?! They’re doing exactly the same thing. There are women around me past 40 who look just as good, they don’t wear booty shorts because of that. Anyway, MY OPINION IS, that ish wasn’t needed Garcelle.

@ 55 It doesn’t take “heart” to pose nude in a men’s magazine. It simply takes greed. Or maybe this is simply the case of another white husband exploiting his famous black wife (ala Latoya Jackson).

I agree with everyone who thinks these photos are tacky, tastelss, and completely unecessary.

@ sesamestreet, bailey and bill great comments and thanks for the co signs

I believe that somethings should be kept private to the public like your personal life, Finances

and definitely your body.

And CL it’s Garcelle BEAUVAIS, not BEAUV”IA”S.

ToniChilds she is not a representation of “black women” or me speak for your damn self!

I think this is pitiful because she is such a good actress. I don’t think this was necessary. I now question her class & tact. She must need the money.

I would expect something like this from vivica.

Hot, hot, hot!

Whether or not she’s ‘disrespecting herself’ is a matter of opinion and the only one that matters is hers!

Personally I don’t see the big deal I see more skin exposed on the Beaches every summer.

she looks great but don’t be fooled by the photoshop folks. they airbrush ALL imperfections out…including stretchmarks, pores, celulite, and even imperfect belly buttons. they are infamous for adding booty and giving lift to the boobies. i’m not sure why folks are comparing their bodies (and other women’s bodies) to photoshop/airbrushing.

Love You Garcelle!!!
