Some put themselves out there naked on purpose. (Sharon Stone)
Put supermodel Joanna Krupa in that last category.
The model who appears topless on the Maxim cover this month is unabashed about using her body to win the next season of "Dancing With the Stars" - and not the way you might think.
"You've got to show a little bit of skin to make it fun," she tells E! News. "My job is so sexy. I've been known to do swimsuit lingerie and sexy spreads in magazines. I want to keep that going, so we'll see how skimpy the costumes will get. It will definitely be classy and flashy and hot. It won't be anything cheesy.
"Hey, whatever gets me to the finals. I'm really going to work hard at it. I mean, yeah, obviously I want to be the sexpot on the show like Gilles (Marini) was."
