Charlotte Church turned down two million dollars to pose naked. Her mother said if she ever did anything like that that she would bloody kill her. A raunchy men's magazine offered her to be their saucy centerfold after the singer turned 18 last month. But her fiery mother, Maria, vowed that she would never, ever pose for any pornographic magazine. Maria said Charlotte is looking great but that she wants to be respected for her voice rather than just ogled at in some filthy pornographic magazine. Maria, 38, said the offers first began when her daughter was named Rear of the Year at age 16.
