Cape Town - Afrikaans rapper Jack Parow and his pregnant model girlfriend Jenna Pietersen have bared all for the cover of Marie Claire's annual naked issue.

Every year local celebrities show some skin for the naked issue in support of a specific charity. This year's naked campaign is in support of the Burn Foundation Southern Africa's educational programmes and outreach to burn survivors.

"This campaign allows celebs to feel the vulnerability a burn survivor feels all their life by baring all for all to see," said Burn Foundation Southern Africa Executive Director Bianca Annandale.

"Scars are never just skin deep, they imprint on our psyches as well, but that does not change the fact that beneath the scars there is a person like everyone else."

Together with Parow and Pietersen, 31 celebrities have decided to show nothing but their skin, making this the magazine's biggest naked campaign yet.

Celebrities taking part include Locnville twins Andrew and Brian Chaplin, comedian and actor Joey Rasdien, 5fm DJ Kim Schulze, Generations stars Samkelo Ndlovu and Jafta Mamabolo, and Springbok scrumhalf Francois Hougaard.

Marie Claire's annual naked issue is on sale from February 20.

For more information regarding the campaign visit Marie Claire's official website.
