Penthouse magazine will publish 17 pages of explicit nude photographs of rock star Madonna, Publisher Bob Guccione said. “The pictures were taken in 1979 when she was living in New York and working as a professional figure model,” Guccione said in a statement released in New York. He said photos of the 26-year-old singer and actress came from photography teachers, their students, amateurs and professionals. No publication date has been set. Madonna could not be reached for comment.
