Former Melrose Place star Lisa Rinna is stripping off for an upcoming Playboy issue - at the age of 45. The actress will shed her clothes for the men's magazine's May issue - 11 years after gracing the cover while pregnant with her first child, daughter Delilah Belle.

And she is confident the nude photo spread will delight male readers, because she's in better shape now than she was at the age of 34 - thanks to her stint on Dancing With The Stars.

She says, "I want to encourage other women to be proud of their bodies no matter what age or size. After doing Dancing with the Stars, I definitely have a better body now than I did 11 years ago."

Husband Harry Hamlin has also given the shoot the thumbs up: "Lisa looks absolutely great, and I am happy other people will be able to see her on the cover of Playboy. ...These artful photos of Lisa will blow you away."
