Keep 'Em Covered: Holly Madison's $1 Million Breasts Join High-priced Celebrity Body Part Policies

Linda Ann Nickerson

Holly Madison fits right in with 28 curious and costly insured celebrity body parts.

Playboy playmate and reality television personality Holly Madison's breasts are now covered, at least from an insurance standpoint. Lloyd's of London holds a $1 million policy for the model's memorable mammaries. Surely, the buxom and blonde bombshell's 2001 plastic surgery didn't cost that much.

"I think it's kind of funny. I think they're getting the credit they deserve," Madison told Access Hollywood. "They're my primary money makers right now."

Madison has appeared on "Dancing with the Stars" and "Girls Next Door." Currently, she has a show in Las Vegas.

Perhaps ironically or opportunistically, Madison's new breast coverage policy arrives just in time for October, which happens to be Breast Health Awareness Month.

What other celebrities have insured various facets of their physiques?

According to several insurance industry sources, Madison's cool million bra fillers are just the latest addition to a slew of celebrity body parts covered by protective policies.

Take a look at 28 popular figures, past and present, and the figures at which they allegedly insured their favorite figure features.
