Look Ma! Reagan Daughter Patti Davis Poses Nude (Again) at 58

By Nicki Gostin Posted May 19th 2011 06:35PM

Patti Davis, the rebel daughter of President Ronald Reagan who posed for Playboy magazine in 1994 when she was 42, is once again posing nude but this time it's for More magazine. The 58-yea-old writer wants to celebrate having a body that she is finally proud of.

The controversial Davis who was often at odds with her politically conservative parents says that she became addicted to drugs at the age of 15 and didn't get clean until she was in her late twenties. She told More that her "body was wasted, muscles thin and barely visible." In a Daily Beast interview Davis said, "I am proof that it's not that easy to die, because I'm telling you I was working on it."

Davis has had a turbulent life. She flirted with acting appearing in episodes of 'Fantasy Island' and 'The Love Boat,' had a relationship with Bernie Leadon from the Eagles and a four-year marriage to her yoga instructor.

During her father's presidency Davis (who went by her mother's maiden name) supported abortion and gay rights and vocally opposed nuclear weapons.

But when she walked into Gold's Gym in Venice, California at the age of 34 she was struck by a nude portrait of bodybuilder Lisa Lyon and decided then and there to emulate her impressive physique and also one day to pose nude.

Although the results are impressive, Davis says she's not happy with one particular body feature - her elbows. "I'm quite upset with my elbows. If you took a close-up photo of them, you'd think, 'Wow, very old person.'"

"I risked everything in my teens and twenties. I risked my health and even my life. I got both back through determination and hard work. I've now learned to respect time as the precious commodity that it is, and I've learned to respect my body."

For many years Davis did not speak to her parents but the rift was healed when her father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and now she has lunch with her mother every Sunday. However, the family is still fractured as she does not talk to either brother, Ron or Michael.

And she's still as outspoken as ever, in a Daily Beast interview she criticized Sarah Palin.

"As far as Sarah Palin is concerned, I think he (speaking of her dad) would be completely baffled at her fondness for shooting animals."

She adds: "I think people ultimately reveal themselves to everybody. I think that's the case with Sarah Palin's conduct, particularly after the Tucson shooting, I think she's sort of digging herself into a hole. I hope -- I really hope."

You obviously know nothing about life. Some older people have better bodies than people in their 20s. Do you have a beer belly? Flabby pecs?

Hey Johnny, I hate to tell you, but life goes by in a blink. Before you know it, you are going to be a 58-year-old senior citizen.

Yes,she still looks good at age 58!!
However,posing nekkid for More Magazine
isn't as exciting as say Hustler or Over 50 Magazine*
(*A Porn Mag featuring women over 50 who still like to
'Ride the Baloney Pony'or'Eat Lunch at the Y'!!).

No T&A or Bush,is kinda boring!!
Personally,I wish she'd pose spread eagle for Hustler Magazine
just to really piss off her family!!

Palin/Sheen 2012!!"WINNING!!".

You are probably a virgin because your attitude towards women stinks. Have fun growing old with no one beside you because you clearly hate women who are not in their 20s. What are you going to do, change wives every few years to get a new model? Johnny, it won't work for you because I see a future for you of balding & so obese you have to wear a bra.
