Italian actress Sophia Loren, 71, has become the oldest woman to pose for the celebrated Pirelli calendar.

The Oscar-winning star is one of five actresses to appear on the calendar's 33rd edition, due out in November.

Naomi Watts, Penelope Cruz, Hilary Swank and France's Lou Doillon will also appear, according to reports.

Loren said she "had a lot of fun, like a young girl" posing for the calendar. Pirelli has denied reports she has been photographed nude.

A picture from the photo shoot published in Milan's Corriere della Sera newspaper shows the actress in lingerie under a bed sheet.

(In the past she's talked about growing up eating lots of spaghetti)
