As the lone female judge on Britain's Got Talent, Amanda Holden is one of the country's most famous blondes.
So to celebrate the launch of the new TrimSole footwear collection, the actress has turned to another famous blonde for inspiration - Marilyn Monroe.
The 40-year-old star lies naked across a bed - bar a pair of black TrimSole flip-flops - with her modesty protected by a strategically placed sheet.

With her short hair curled and lashings of red lipstick, the former Cutting It star channels the spirit of the late Hollywood icon Monroe.
The new campaign for the Spring/Summer 2011 collection was officially launched today by Holden at London's historic Criterion restaurant in Piccadilly.
Wearing a black shift dress and a pair of boots from the range, Holden showed off some of the different designs of the leg-toning flip-flops from the new collection.

The launch came during a break in rehearsals for Holden's upcoming role in Shrek: The Musical.
She will play Princess Fiona to Nigel Lindsay's Shrek in the Theatre Royal Drury Lane production, which also stars Richard Blackwood as Donkey and Nigel Harman as Lord Farquaad.
Holden has been updating her Twitter followers with details from rehearsals and admitted she was nervous about meeting Prince Charles at the show's gala performance in June.
She said: 'Practising my curtsey for the 8 June when HRH the Prince of Wales is coming to see Shrek The Musical. Praying I don’t burp in his face.'

Holden is also preparing for the live shows of Britain's Got Talent, which returns to TV screens on April 16.
Last week, she reunited with new judges Michael McIntyre and David Hasselhoff in Birmingham for more auditions after a two month break.
Holden is keeping busy since the devastating loss of her unborn baby boy in February.
Footwear from the TrimSole brand comes with a unique Trim-Tech sole to subtly shift your centre of balance to make your legs work harder when you walk.
Speaking about the range, Holden enthused: 'I'm convinced my bum is already more pert after wearing the shoes all day.'
The new collection features not only tradition colours like black and silver, but also animal-prints for the more flamboyant fashionista.
TrimSole footwears starts from £24.95 and is available online at www.trimsole.com.
