Nude

Hollywood up-and-comer Karine Plantadit-Bageot left her West African homeland at age fourteen to begin her career as a professional dancer. Born in France on January 15, 1970, and raised in Cameroon, Karine moved to Cannes when she was fourteen years old to pursue dance. She later moved to New York City, where she continued to study dance under Alvin Ailey. Karine has primarily made a name for herself on the stages of Broadway, having appeared in Disney’s The Lion King, Movin’ Out, and Saturday Night Fever. Karine was nominated for a 2010 Tony Award in the category of Best Featured Actress in a Musical for her role in the musical Come Fly Away. Her screen career began taking off in 2002 when she landed a small part in the mega-musical Chicago (2002) and a larger part as ’20s French singing sensation Josephine Baker in the Salma Hayek vehicle Frida (2002). Karine had no problem getting into the part of the notoriously debauched star of yesteryear, baring her maracas in a hot lesbian love scene with another naked lady. Ooh-la-la! Some of Karine’s more recent onscreen credits include Sex and the City (2004), Across the Universe (2007), Smash (2012), The Way You Love (2013), Black Nativity (2013), The Affair (2016), Mozart in the Jungle (2018), Isn’t It Romantic (2019), Brooklyn Love Stories (2019), and Loreen’s Gotta Boogie (2019). Will Karine ever bring her naked curves to the big screen again? Here at Mr. Skin, we’re keeping our fingers crossed. Karine is a kutie!
