Jenny McCarthy grew up in a very strict Catholic household and always thought she would join a nunnery and devote her life to God---but she grew up very fast in the public eye as a sexy pin-up girl for Playboy magazine.
However, her ambition was crushed after she visited the local parish convent and learned nuns are not allowed to have children.
The 39-year old model and actress recently revealed while promoting her new book "Bad Habits", "I was taught to believe that my goal in life was to do good things so that I could ensure my place in heaven. So, it was only logical in my young innocent mind that I should become a nun - and guarantee my spot to hang out with Jesus and his buddies."
“Love in the Wild” reality-show host Jenny McCarthy, who will be turned 40 in November, first posed for playboy in 1993 and was crowned “1994 Playmate of the Year award.” The blonde beauty has a 10-year-old son Evan from her former marriage to actor-and-director John Asher.
Jenny McCarthy July/August 2012 edition of Playboy, which was her first playboy appearance since January 2006, hit on June 29, 2012. Her latest book, "Bad Habits: Confessions of a Recovering Catholic," chronicles her devout Catholic childhood and growing up poor, both of which left a deep mark on her.
