Actress Anna Faris almost went from cover star to all-nude centerfold during her recent Playboy magazine shoot - because photographers made her feel so sexy. The sexy blond appears on the front of the September issue and features in the magazine's "20 Questions" section, but fans almost got to see a lot more of her.

She explains, "I felt really sexy. I found myself totally getting into it. I was like, 'Let's just take it all off.'"

Faris tells Eonline.com her publicist had to step in to stop her from baring all.

But the actress insists she hasn't always been a beauty - at school she was such a plain Jane she didn't start dating until her senior year.

She reveals, "(Growing up) I felt unattractive, short and self-conscious about my body, and I would purposely emphasize that by doing odd things. I wore glasses, braces, odd hairdos and dumpy clothes... When I was a freshman I wore a Christmas-tree skirt as a cape. I couldn't get any dates until senior year."

Anna stars as a Playboy Playmate in The House Bunny, in theaters August 22
