Jennifer Lawrence has posed nude — her first — for the cover of fashion glossy Vanity Fair. Giving JLaw company in the racy picture is a Colombian red-tailed boa constrictor. 

According to Vanity Fair, the Oscar-winning actress — known for her spunk on screen and off — was “brave and nonchalant” while the snake was wrapped around her, but “only became uncomfortable when the snake took a fancy to her neck!” 

JLaw wearing just a snake is said to be a “homage to the 1981 Richard Avedon Vogue portrait of Nastassja Kinski” (above). The cover opens to a spread of the Silver Linings Playbook hottie’s pictures inside — swimming and sunbathing.
