Melina Kanakaredes
Nude

It’s all Greek to Mr. Skin when it comes to explaining the erotic attraction to the exotic Melina Kanakaredes. Born Melina Eleni Kanakaredes Constantinides in Ohio, the Greek-American beauty speaks both English and Greek fluently, while offering universal appeal to millions with her sultry screen presence. The brunette ingénue first lit loins afire as Eleni Andros Cooper on The Guiding Light (1991-1995). The daytime soap led to primetime TV, wherein Melina exposed her arresting ass to Jimmy Smits on NYPD Blue (1995). She then moved to movies with appearances in the thriller The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996), the period romance Dangerous Beauty (1999) and the poker flick Rounders (1998). The busy babe then bounced back to the boob tube to play Dr. Sydney Hansen in the medical drama Providence (1999-2002). Throughout the run, she showed off her bedside manner — and overwhelming undergarments! No wonder the TV Guide Awards named her Favorite Actress! Next, Ms. Kanakaredes flashed her bra-clad badges as Detective Stella Bonasera in the CBS police procedural hit CSI: NY (2004-2010). In fact, whether popping up on other geographically-titled series (New York News, Leaving L.A., Oz) or touting her perfectly pronounced pokies in an interview (Late Show with David Letterman), this hardworking hottie sizzled on the small screen! Yet here at Skin Central, we’re partial to her guest spot on the ABC drama Notorious (2016) since it lets the skintastic actress reveal her skimpy skivvies and sexual appetite during a videotaped sex scene. Did someone say, hit freeze frame?!
