John Stamos Posts Nude Shower Photo After Milestone Birthday: ‘The Other Side of 60’

Love to see more people embracing the nude! Come over to us to see what all this freedom can offer. Have Mercy! 

"John Stamos still has fans saying “have mercy” all these years later. The Full House alum recently took to social media to celebrate reaching a major life milestone: his 60th birthday. In honor of the big day, Stamos stripped down to his birthday suit — literally — and posed for the camera while enjoying an outside shower. While the actor showed off almost everything, he strategically used his right hand to cover the front side of his lower body." Read the full story HERE.

Another famous person "taking a risky nude pic." Just go out and enjoy nature in the buff. You'll thank us later.

"While some artists were dropping either end-of-summer tracks (Selena, Addison, Miley) or each other (et tu, Pete?) or Scooter Braun (basically everyone else), Bad Bunny dropped, um, something else over the weekend. On Sunday, he posted a photo-video dump (at least 57 snaps, to be exact) of what appear to be his recent adventures to Instagram Stories. Including a nude selfie." Read the full story HERE.
