Karina Smirnoff's Sexy Playboy Cover

Karina Smirnoff isn't holding back.

The cover of the Ukrainian babe's May Playboy issue has her in a black see-through bodysuit, while the Dancing with the Stars pro bares it all in 10 sultry images inside the magazine.

"As a dancer I've always embraced my body," says Smirnoff, 33. "I'm thrilled to show off my strong, toned physique in the pages of Playboy and celebrate my sexiness."

Set on a dance floor, Smirnoff is clad in nothing more than red ballet shoes that tie up to her lower thigh and red ballet ties that cover half of her arms.

Karina Smirnoff: Why I Posed Nude in Playboy

Karina Smirnoff likes to push things to the limit: Aside from flying around the ballroom on Dancing with the Stars, she enjoys boxing, skydiving and shooting guns.

"I'm fearless and love the adrenaline rush," the dancing pro, 32, tells Playboy, underscoring the point by posing nude in the May issue.

Smirnoff, who this season is paired with leader Ralph Macchio, wears little more than a few red ribbons and a sultry stare as the first Dancing pro to strip down for the magazine.

"Sexy is the confident energy a person produces," she tells Playboy. "Sexy is the comfortable feeling of being who you are."
