Chicago, Oct 12 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Marge Simpson has come of age and clothes too. As she is all set to drop her clothes for the cover of Playboy. It is indeed a first of its kind both for Marge and the magazine too.
According to a magazine spokesperson, “Beloved, animated, blue-haired Marge Simpson will be the first cartoon character to score the centerfold. The matriarch of the TV family that made history as the longest-running comedy will be featured in a three-page pictorial and grace the cover. Marge Simpson will pull a Heidi Montag and refrain from actual nudity, but there’s “implied nudity.”
This is being done to attract more readership towards the magazine, esp. the readers who are in their 20s, as the average reading age of the magazine is said to be 35. This was revealed by the new CEO Scott Flanders.
The Playboy representatives with this idea long back had, reportedly lured the creator of Simpsons Matt Groening, in July itself. The negotiations took some time to be finalized, and Marge Simpson is all set to sizzle artistically in the buff in the November issue.
He says, To mark the 20th anniversary of “The Simpsons,” the doyenne of Springfield USA appears in the buff and very strategically posed on a bunny-shaped chair for the cover of the November issue, which hits newsstands next week.
