Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt said he is willing to pay Casey Anthony $500,000 to pose naked for his magazine. The porn mogul made the announcement on HLN's "Nancy Grace" show Thursday night.

"We made an offer of a half-a-million dollars, but ... she would receive 10 percent of [any additional profits], and the reason why I did that is I'm still ambivalent as to how well this will do," Flynt said.

"But in case it goes viral and there's this huge interest and everybody wants to see the photographs, well, you know, millions could be made, so we don't know," Flynt continued. "But, I think it was generous of us to put a percentage of the profits in for her because it could amount to a great deal more money."

On July 5, a jury of seven women and five men acquitted Anthony, 25, of killing her 2-year-old daughter Caylee. The jury did, however, find her guilty of four lesser counts of lying to police officers about the disappearance of her child -- a decision she is appealing. Credited with good behavior and time served, Anthony was released from jail on July 17. Her current whereabouts are unknown.

Flynt said he did not necessarily agree with the verdict in the Anthony trial but has come to accept it.

"We can't trash our legal system and try to dismantle it or set it aside just because we're not happy with one particular verdict," he said. "You know, people need to get a life and move on."

If Anthony agreed to pose nude, Flynt said a portion of the profits earned from the sale of the magazine would go to abused children and abused children's shelters.

Earlier this month, Playboy guru Hugh Hefner told CNN's Piers Morgan that a lot of people have been asking him if he would consider giving Anthony a spread in his magazine.

Hefner said, "I wouldn't reward someone like that."

Substituting for Grace Thursday, Jean Casarez, from "In Session" on the truTV network, asked Flynt what he thought about Hefner's comments. He replied:

"Mr. Hefner is 86 years old, and he's still living in the 1950s ... looking at the Marilyn Monroe centerfold. He was never really able to grow with the times, and that’s why 'Playboy' has all the problems they have. But I'm not interested in bashing Hef now."

Flynt said he did not consider approaching Anthony with a deal until fans of his magazine began pestering him about it.

"People have been coming to me in droves, you know, wanting this," he said. "I've never seen that happen before. ... I think a lot of people really think that she is attractive and they would like to see her in that sort of a layout."

Casey Anthony's not the first controversial figure who Flynt has approached. Last month, in a blog for The Huffington Post, he offered ex-Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) a job after Weiner admitted he sent inappropriate messages and photos to women online.

"After having learned of your sudden and compelled resignation from your Congressional post, I would like to make you an offer of employment at Flynt Management Group, LLC in our Internet group," Flynt wrote. "As a Congressman, you are known for your intensity and perseverance. I believe that this attitude, combined with your service in the House of Representatives' Committee on Energy and Commerce, will make you a valuable asset to this corporation."

In regard to Anthony, Flynt said she could make millions of dollars if she accepted his offer.

"If they want to get their hands on big money, they've got to go through me," Flynt said on Nancy Grace. "Anything else that they get paid will be chicken feed."

Casey Anthony's attorney, Jose Baez, did not immediately respond to a request from comment from The Huffington Post Friday.

just because the jury decided they would find her not guilty of murder DOES NOT MEAN she is not responsible for her child's death. We all know her daughter is dead because of her actions. As far as I'm concerned she murdered that little girl. I wouldn't spend one dime towards her benefit. I could care less what she looks like nude. I could care less where she's hiding and I have no interest in her interviews, books or anything else. I've heard enough lies from her. I hope she violates her probation and gets thrown in prison where her homees can judge her properly! Then I will be satisified of justice.

anyone wanting to make her a celebrity is no better than she is

My faith in humanity keeps taking shots to the face. It is really sad that there is so much money to be made off Caylee Anthony's death. Its pathetic, even for Larry Flynt. Someone, a child is dead and you're thinking about how you can make millions of dollars from it.

Ummm "Bubbagray" you are joking right? Please tell me you are being sarcastic....lol.....geeze.
09:56 AM on 08/11/2011
I mean how sick can you get? Okay I get it, she was good looking...and??? Do you guys not have enough good lookin girls to look at? How can you even look at her in that kind of way when I know in the back of my mind I see her cute, innocent little girl laying in the woods with duct tape on her head dead....hmmm....wow what a turn on. Again, how sick are you? Look at someone else who is "HOT" geeze. Don't give her this satisfaction, her life should be hell now not stardom and fame....if that's the case, more women will murder their children just to get some fame and fortune, it will be the new fad!!
10:37 PM on 09/23/2011
Casey Anthony, Good Looking? By what standard?
05:25 AM on 08/11/2011
I wouldn't mind seeing her naked...

I think this story made an angel cry.
01:31 AM on 08/11/2011
she may as well be in porn, she f@#$%d the entire legal system over...
10:55 PM on 08/10/2011
Well if she shows up to take these nude photos then she CAN show up in court for her probation - what does her lawyers have to say about that especially since they stood up in court and said that she cannot afford to pay them - how is she paying Baez and that other old lawyer who flipped everyone off? hmmmmm

If that smutking pays her one dime...may whatever karma in the world make the bad stuff that happened to him in the past (and some BAD stuff happened to him obviously) seem like NOTHING compared to the bad stuff that happens in the future.

How wretchedly awful.

Casey is very pretty in a fresh, decent, girl-next-door sort of way, but she would never expose her body in a risque, undignified manner.

Why would anyone want to see her naked? All I would think about is the CHILD she once held in THAT body only to take away that very same life she gave. Disgusting. She makes me want to vomit. BABYKILLERS are NOT attractive.
