Naked and Pregnant: Another Kardashian Strips Down

Another day, another Kardashian getting naked. This time it’s Kourtney Kardashian, the oldest—and currently most pregnant—of the famous sisters.

Kourtney’s showing off her third baby bump in DuJour magazine’s latest issue. Photographer Brian Bowen Smith propped her up against a gray background, while stylist Monica Rose draped the reality star in a feathered necklace and wet t-shirt, all of which accentuates her 9 months-pregnant belly.

Not surprisingly, Kourtney is no stranger to baring it all; her previous two deliveries have been documented in Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Who can forget when she literally pulled out her second baby, Penelope, during the birth process? “I’m at my best when I’m pregnant. It’s such an amazing feeling, the transformation that your body goes through,” Kourtney says in her interview with the magazine, “It’s what a woman’s body is made to do, so I hope it’s maybe seen as something that’s artistic.”

Of course, Kourtney’s certainly not the first woman, famous or otherwise, to document her pregnant body for posterity. In 1991, Annie Leibovitz photographed a pregnant and naked Demi Moore for the now iconic cover of Vanity Fair. It was declared obscene at the time, but you can probably name 50 celebs who have done it since—not to mention the friends and family clogging your social media feeds with selfies of their growing bellies. Like Kourtney says, “It’s a wonderful thing to be able to show my children these photographs one day and say, ‘This was you inside.’ And that’s really what it’s all about.”
