Aubrey Plaza appears on the cover of 'V Magazine'If anyone can bring tighty-whities back, it's Aubrey Plaza.
The Parks and Recreation alum, 40, graced the cover of V Magazine’s latest issue, stripping down to her briefs for a special holiday digital edition of the magazine.
In the digital cover, photographed by Blair Getz Mezibov and styled by Anna Trevelyan, Plaza rocked a unique red coat — half puffer, half fluff — draped over her shoulders and a chunky silver necklace with a leopard pendant.

Elsewhere in the cover shoot, the My Old Ass actress ditched the coat, instead rocking nothing but a pair of high-waisted, white underpants and a tan Lacoste blazer — an unusual move for the star, who previously revealed that she usually skips underwear altogether, at least on set.
She teamed the briefs and blazer, both Lacoste, with Christian Louboutin heels and added a touch of sparkle with a subtle glossy lip and Tiffany & Co. jewels.

Another one of the ‘fits saw her leaning even further into the sporty-preppy look with a polo and skirt belt, both white.

“Baby, I always wanted to be in movies. That was always the plan,” she told the outlet. “But a Marvel TV show? I never thought I would do that. Fashion campaigns? I never thought that anyone would want me to do that."
"I mean, it blows my mind that I’m in a Coppola movie," she added.

Aubrey Plaza for 'V Magazine'During the interview, the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World star expressed discomfort about the way she was sitting — “I'm on fire” — before wondering out loud if her lack of undergarments was to blame. "Maybe I should've worn underwear, but I never do,” Plaza told EW. “And then I get f---ed.”
Doubling down on her no-underpants philosophy, the star said, "I feel like acting is all about ... you have to have your body in this weird malleable state,” before telling the outlet and Stella about her on-set “rules.”
"Never have to pee when you're doing a scene,” the actress explained. “Even if you, a little bit, are like, 'Maybe I have to pee,' just get it all out. Just get whatever fluids out. Be like an empty vessel.”
"And if you don't wear underwear, it can come out faster,” she added. “So don't ever wear underwear in life."
