Kim Kardashian Nude in Playboy?

Kim Kardashian wants to pose for Playboy or "some nude shoot" ASAP. That's what she says (or said, whilst still pregnant) in a promo for upcoming episodes of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, regarding her big post-baby plans.

“As soon as I pop this thing out," she declares, "I want to do Playboy."

Kim Kardashian welcomed baby North West in mid-June, but the family business/reality show lags behind by a few months, so she could've changed her mind.

If she is serious, it would be somewhat surprising, even for her.

Why? She posed for Playboy in 2007 - around the time of the Kim Kardashian sex tape - but was upset, or so she says, when the mag re-ran the shots in 2010.

Despite her alleged objections, Hugh Hefner's publication re-used the photos again online, and added some previously unreleased ones for good measure.

“I’m sorry I did Playboy. I was uncomfortable,” Kim confided to Harper’s Bazaar in a 2010 interview, but her mom told her to go for it ... big surprise.

“They might never ask you again," Kim recalled Kris Jenner saying back then. "Our show isn’t even on the air yet. No one knows who you are."

That was a time some people long for.

On the flip side, Kim said in 2011 that posing naked was “an independence thing for me ... I felt like this was one decision that only I could make."

"I think it looks great. I’ll have those pictures forever.”

A bit contradictory and inconsistent, and unclear as to what's scripted and what's real ... but that's Kim Kardashian for you. As for a possible nude comeback:
