Former Playboy centerfold Holly Madison has insured two important cast members of her Las Vegas production, “Peepshow.”

Madison has insured her breasts for $1 million with Lloyd's of London, she tells People magazine.

“I've heard about people getting body parts insured and I thought, “Why not?” she tells People. “If anything happened to my boobs, I'd be out for a few months and I'd probably be out a million dollars. I thought I'd cover my assets.”

Madison gained popularity as one of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner's girlfriends on the television reality series, “The Girls Next Door.”

Today she has a show in Las Vegas. During the show, Madison bares her insureds, which she paid to have enlarged a decade ago.

Lloyd's is no stranger to insuring body parts. For example, it has insured singer Tina Turner's legs and the ankles of pro baseball's Mark McGwire.

Last year Lloyd's insured the hair of Troy Polamalu of the National Football League's Pittsburgh Steelers for $1 million. Polamalu stars in several commercials for Head & Shoulders shampoo, which took out the policy.

Insurance for body parts is split into two parts—either it involves insuring a physical attribute that drives earning power, or it involves sports stars insuring parts injured in the past, Lloyd's once told NU.
