How Old is Kate Walsh?

Kate Walsh is 44 years old, but she's not afraid to show some serious skin.

And actually for her age, she looks really good. I'm sure that airbrushing has a lot do with it (she does sort of look painted), but there's really no photo shop errors. 

At least not like Oprah, where her boob seemed to grow a hand at the Image Awards - or at least that's a theory as opposed to terrible photoshopping mistakes.

"Right now, I feel really healthy, confident, and sexy," she said about her decision to pose nude for the cover. "I’m enjoying my 40s and wanted to share that. Is it a mid-life crisis? I do drive a Porsche, so maybe it is!" 

On the cover, the stunning actress shows off a toned physique, wearing nothing but a smile.

Walsh also told the magazine that the decision to go nude was her idea, a pitch that thrilled Shape editors, who hadn't been able to find any other celebrities willing to strip down for their cover.

Asked whether the bold move could be interpreted as a midlife crisis, Walsh laughed.

"I do drive a Porsche, so maybe it is,” she said.
