'Dancing With the Stars' Judge Bruno Tonioli Goes Nude for Charity

Is "Dancing With the Stars" planning to add striptease to its light-footed lineup? Sure looks like it.

The hit ballroom dancing show's outspoken Italian judge Bruno Tonioli has shimmied out of his dapper duds to raise awareness for Britain's Give Up Clothes for Good campaign, which asks the public to donate items from their wardrobes to raise cash for Cancer Research U.K.

In the artistic black-and-white shots, a nimble Tonioli leaps proudly in the air with just a strategically placed leg covering his, er, private dancer. Give the man a 10 for modesty!

"I really enjoyed taking part in this shoot," 54-year-old Tonioli said, reports The Sun. The Give Up Clothes for Good campaign, which just launched and runs through April 25, is supported by U.K. discount retailers TK Maxx and HomeSense.

"I encourage the nation to open up those closets," Tonioli said, according to the Daily Mail. "Reach for those hidden marvels, and donate your fabulous items of clothing and homeware."

We at StyleList say "bravo!" to Tonioli for being brave enough to bare all. But we're frightened by the thought of what he might do for an encore!

Meanwhile, read about fellow Brit reality star Trinny Woodall's nude shoot for Tatler magazine.

Julie's comment was a delight! But, I find the photo repulsive, especially given his constant inuenda and sexual talk and behavior. This was not the case of a normatlly modest man disrobing to help charity in earnest. They airbrushed the h- - l out of that photo or photo chopped someone else's body for him. No way does Bruno look like that. Now he has a photo of his dream self. And, HE IS A MEAN SOB

From what I can see, and with my bifocals and magnifing glass (strong I may add) this guy has a grate body for his age, and for most I seen in a long time. Now we know what he looks like in front of that desk with the other judges. He gets '10' in my books. (he he he) now Bruno, drop that leg. lol

If he were wearing one of those skimpy speedo swimsuits that the male competitve swimmers wear and shot from the same angle and in the same pose, the photo would not look any different from this "nude" picture. I think it was done with taste and Bruno looks amazing.

OkOK I get it...I GET IT!!! But I also bet that dear, "sweet" Bruno does NOT have that body, though Im sure he wishes he does. Even my ancient eyes can tell when a photo has been airbrushed and/or a head put on anothers body. But even his head looks about 10 years younger then the one we see every week on DWTS. Oh well what the hell..I love his insulting half-wit humor. He and Len are SOOOO rude to the dancers who must stand there nodding their heads while smiling a fake "bright" smile as their dancing style is ridiculed and assasinated by these two (and sometimes by the three of them.)

I don't know why some of you might not believe it is his body "because of his age". He's only 54...not 84!!! How awful for you to live in a life that you think and apparently see a body go to the way side, once they hit 50. I know many a man in their late 50's & 60's with a body that still looks like that. "Some" people do care how they look and will not let themselves go, no matter what the age. I read the same thing when they speak of actresses that are over 40 and still have a good body. Hello people....at that age one "Should" still have a good body. Over 60....and not dead yet and still a good body! I think this is a great publicity stunt and good for Bruno. The guy is a hoot and I love watching him.....fairy dust and all

While the pic does look airbrushed, (and who isn't?) you need something to work with. Seeing this small pic, the head does not look pasted on, so he has to have a decent body, better than most his age, even if it doesn't look quite like this.

EW! He has become so unprofessional and rude. He seems to think his pithy comments being funny is more important than the feelings of the people trying very hard to do difficult dances correction. He is a rude bore and should be dismissed.
