Kate Moss is coming to Playboy!

The poster girl of heroin chic will cover the men's magazine's 60th anniversary issue.

If Moss' waif figure seems like a pretty confusing cover choice for Playboy—which debuted with a decidedly more buxom Marilyn Monroe—know this: If it's good enough for Hugh Hefner, it's good enough for us. "She's a worldwide celebrity and iconic and crosses the boundaries from sexual imagery to upscale modeling," Hef gushed to The Los Angeles Times. "It's a natural for us." (As are her boobs, a rare move for the mag!)

Still not totally sold on this being an awesome idea? Then let editorial director Jimmy Jellinek explain. He boasted of Playboy, "This is a massive global brand. You need a global icon in order to celebrate that—that was the impetus."

The high-fashion icon won't really be showing off her style in the mag, but she will be showing off just about everything else. Moss, who's modeled nude before (but never for Playboy), will appear in a full-frontal spread and will be completely nude ... save for the trademark Playboy bunny ears, some cuffs, and a "come hither smile."

And what makes Kate so great for the nude photo spread, according to Jellinek? Surprisingly, it's not her bod. "You're talking about the face of Burberry, the biggest supermodel in the world on the cover of Playboy," he said. "She's the perfect partner for us to help launch the next 60 years."
