Oh, baby, she's broke.

Nadya "Octomom" Suleman has filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection, listing only $50,000 in assets against up to $1 million in debts, according to papers filed April 27.

The mom of 14, who recently stripped down in a magazine for $8,000, doesn't specify the names of her creditors but provided a clue in the list of those receiving the bankruptcy papers.

It includes Verizon Wireless, Sparkletts, Indy Mac Mortgage, Orkin Pest Control, the Department of Motor Vehicles, a Christian school, and the gas, electric and water utilities.

Explaining why she appeared semi-nude in the U.K.'s Closer magazine, Suleman, 37, who gave birth three years ago to octuplets to go with six other kids, told Anderson Cooper, "I have to do what I have to do to take care of my family."
