Toni Braxton to Pose for Playboy?

Toni Braxton is considering an offer to pose for Playboy, saying she's been asked "three times before."
Braxton
filed for bankruptcy this past October, claiming she owes somewhere between $10 million and $50 million in unpaid debts, and now the singer is looking for alternate forms of employment to boost her income. She recently signed a deal to feature her family in a new reality TV show, and now she's revealed she's been offered a lucrative spread with Playboy Magazine.
Speaking on her
Twitter account on Tuesday, she said, "New Year, New opportunities. So I have been considering taking up Playboy's offer to feature me on their cover this year. What you think?" Later adding, "I would love to pose with
Hugh Hefner though. He's the sexiest guy I know over 30."
Braxton's bankruptcy is the second time she's filed, the first being back in 1998. According to
TMZ, the singer, who has sold over 40 million albums to date, owes money all over the country, including music and film businesses such as The William Morris Agency and the Screen Actors Guild.
Playboy founder Hefner, 84,
proposed to 24-year-old Playmate Crystal Harris over the holidays. She later posted a close-up of the
engagement ring, which appears to be a multi-carat round, brilliant-cut diamond set in a platinum band with smaller-diamond accents.

For as talented as you are Toni, you're not very street wise. Apparently from all the money you've made, from which a good portion has gone to taking care of your boy. That's admirable but there's a whole lot more to your money troubles. You need to "wise up" and not do this. There has to be a better way and one which you can do. Otherwise you've cheapened yourself to "trash".

Why don't "stars and celebrities" pay their damned bills and taxes when they have money???? Like the rest of us have to!

Good question! How in the hell do you get 40 or 50 MILLION DOLLARS in debt all over the country?! My thinking is, "pay, THEN play"!
She is in debt somewhere between 10 and 50 Mil, think her accountants can get it a little closer.
How can anyone let these idiots get that far in the first place.
She is going to have to do a hell of a spread in Playboy to cover that debt.

Um, how 'bout this novel concept that is unheard of in celeb circles: try working a regular job for once.

Toni Braxton thinks that Hugh Hefner is the sexiest guy over 30 only because he can sign a fat paycheck for her to expose her cooch in his magazine. These celebrities are getting dumber and dumber every day.

It sounds like Tony is trying to suck up to Hefner, to do a photo shoot for her to make some money fast.
Its pathetic that shes stooped this low.

I enjoy Toni's songs shes is a beautiful strong woman and mother. if she decides to do this I will lose all respect for her as a singer,mother and woman. She needs to keep in mind that she has children. What would they think, mom was a sucessful singer and now shes a sucessfully work her way down to trash. how many awards will she recieve for this one! :(

Didn't you already pose nude before? I could have sworn I saw you in a layout spread already. Maybe it was just another one of your projects.
My advise. Stick to singing and your true blessings.
