Inside, she dances with red ribbon covering her legs, and not much else.
"As a dancer I've always embraced my body," she told the mag, via Entertainment Tonight, in the interview. "I'm thrilled to show off my strong, toned physique in the pages of Playboy and celebrate my sexiness."
Some think Karina's decision to pose for Playboy may threaten her DWTS career.
“If Karina posed naked, she can kiss her dancing days goodbye,” a DWTS insider told PopEater’s Rob Shuter after Hugh Hefner announced the latest cover girl on Twitter. “I hope for Karina’s sake that this isn’t true.”
