Edie Falco
Nude

Born in Brooklyn and raised in Long Island, Edie Falco is the tough, no nonsense, woman whose high-strung, hard-shell rawness gives her a quality of realness that always makes it believable she’s a badass on screen. But like the mean grade school teacher you kind of liked to get yelled at by, her gruff demeanor is only surpassed by her sexual allure. Edie graduated from SUNY Purchase, and almost immediately people were buying what she was selling. Edie found a starring role in Homicide: Life on the Street before heading to the big screen. She joined Woody Allen in Bullets Over Broadway (1994), before making her mark in Private Parts (1997) and Cop Land (1997). In 1997, Edie made her first premium cable appearance when she took the role of Correctional Officer Diane Whittlesey on HBO’s prison drama Oz. Edie never went past a bra on the show, which was a major con, but the same year she debuted as the lone woman keeping Emerald City in line, she gave us a peek behind the curtains in two separate movies. First, in Trouble on the Corner (1997) we get a quick look at Edie’s chest bee-bees and backside in a bathtub, then we get another look at her sudsy jugs when she unrobes in front of a creeper with a peephole. Then in Firehouse (1997), Edie gives Paulie from Rocky (1976) himself, Burt Young, a clear, unobstructed look at her hooter hydrants when she showers. Soon after, Edie stuck with Home Box Office and landed the role that she is best known for, mob wife Carmela Soprano on The Sopranos. Edie gives us only a nip slip and a peek at her woke up this morning got yourself some buns in the series, which left fans nearly as disappointed as the show’s infamous cut to black ending. We couldn’t stay quiet watching the weirdness of The Quiet (2005) where a short haired Edie takes her top off for an unappreciative gentleman, then proceeds to try and sleep on the floor. After starring on Nurse Jackie for six years, and playing a cop on CBS’ Tommy for one, Edie is now scheduled to appear in both Avatar (2009) sequels. We’re needy for more Edie!
