Scarlett, Keira bare all for magazine cover
Stars pose nude as Leibovitz shoots Vanity Fair's Hollywood issue

NEW YORK - With award season still under way, Scarlett Johansson and Keira Knightley are exchanging ballgowns for birthday suits.

Under the artful eye of photographer Annie Leibovitz, the starlets posed nude for the cover of Vanity Fair magazine’s yearly Hollywood issue, to be released Wednesday.

Fashion superstar Tom Ford also appears on the cover photo, though he stuck with a more traditional suit — one of black fabric.

Ford, the issue’s guest art director, said he hadn’t planned on becoming part of his own project, but he stepped in when “Wedding Crashers” star Rachel McAdams, 29, backed out.

“She did want to do it, and then when she was on the set I think she felt uncomfortable, and I didn’t want to make anybody feel uncomfortable” Ford said Tuesday on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”

Other Hollywood stars weren’t difficult to persuade, Ford said.

“A lot of women actually, a couple of men, too, wanted to take their clothes off,” he said. “These are such beautiful people, beautiful women, and who doesn’t want to see a bit of them.”

Angelina Jolie also got naked for the Hollywood issue, posing in a bathtub. Another shot depicts a fully clothed George Clooney as a director filming a large cast of women wearing skin-tone underwear.

For the cover photo, Knightley, 20, was photographed sitting sideways, with legs and arms carefully placed. The 21-year-old Johansson, draped over Ford’s leg, is somewhat more exposed — readers who open the fold-out cover will see her bare buttocks.

Knightley is currently nominated for a best actress Oscar for her performance in “Pride & Prejudice.” Johansson co-starred this year in Woody Allen’s “Match Point.”

NSFW, even though it's just a butt.

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

A guy in my class at school used to go out with Knightley


Bastard.

man, they both look soooooo white.

That would be a great picture if the homo wasn't sniffing her hair.

to be a fly on the wall

So how many more years do you think we have to wait until that shot includes Nip?

What an awful fucking photo of both of them.

that's all i can think about when i see it. i didn't even realize it was them at first glance.

Keira looks painfully thin, and both of them look quite unhealthy

Those 2 were in my top hottest chicks category, but both have really let me down recently, this picture doenst help. As one of my co-workers said recently, "You'll never hear a guy say look at the bones on her" Keira put some fucking weight on your body.

i'd give Scarlett the most underwhelming 2 minutes she's ever had

GOOD. Not every woman has caramel skin. And to make women who are pale feel like they have to sacrifice themselves to the sun to look attractive is silliness. I love their milky skin. I think it's beautiful.

thats the closest Tom Fords ever been to a woman

very dissapointing

they definitely made these girls much whiter than they are for this photoshoot, which is what i was pointing to.

It looks as unnatural as an orange tan. They looked like they were dipped in flour.
