From an Internet sex tape to a reality show celebrity to the cover of probably one of the world’s most famous men’s magazines, Kim Kardashian has made her name and her body extremely recognizable to just about every red blooded male on the planet.

In early 2007, a sex tape hit the Internet starring Kardashian and boyfriend at the time, J Ray, little brother to singer, Brandy Norwood. Although Kardashian admitted to the existence of the tape before it went public, she denied orchestrating the release of the tape for profit, claiming “I don’t need the money.” Adult film company, Vivid Entertainment, purchased the tape from an unknown source for $1 million, and reportedly plans to release the tape on DVD before February 28, 2007, under the title Kim Kardashian Superstar. The tape has also been posted on Kimksuperstar.com, and can be seen for a fee.

Out of this debacle came the realization by Hugh Hefner that he could capitalize on Kardashian’s fame and place her firmly on the cover of his Christmas issue of Playboy magazine in 2007.

Following the success of that particular issue, Hef went on to feature Kim on the cover of his special issue of Sexy 100 May 2008, a special edition that has the sexiest 100 celebrities that have ever posed for Playboy since the 50s.

Since those heady days of Playboy, Kim has settled down somewhat since becoming engaged to boyfriend, Reggise Bush, but we dont suppose her sexy days are over, not by a long shot!

Known for her steamy roles over the years in several Lifetime movies, Lisa Rinna has remained a sex symbol throughout her acting career to such an extent that Hugh Hefner came calling at her door in September 1998 when she was signed up to grace the cover of his Playboy magazine for that month, giving her the title of being a Playboy Bunnygirl.

Although, at the time, Lisa was 6 months pregnant, with her first child by husband Harry Hamlin, it in no way detracted from her sexuality and allure when she appeared wearing a soft pink sweater, falling provocatively off her shoulder and clearly going braless for the shoot!

Now a days Lisa is keeping herself in the public eye with the hopes of appearing in the US series, Melrose Place, which has previously starred Heather Locklear and Desperate Housewives, Marcia Cross. Lisa joined the original cast of the series in 1996 and stayed on for two seasons.

The Playboy Bunnygirl who seemed to come the closest to sharing a double ‘H’ monogram on Hugh Hefner’s bed linen and towels has now moved out of the Playboy Mansion and into the arms of an angel. Criss Angel to be precise.

After many years of being Hef’s number one bunny girl, Holly Madison realized that the magazine publisher was never going to make her dreams come true by placing a diamond band on her finger, so she took the initiative to find her own piece of heaven with the Hollywood magician, illusionist, and stunt performer.

But that hasn’t stopped Holly from being invited back to Playboy to grace the cover of one of the 3 covers of the February 2009 Playboy magazine.

With two other appearances on the covers of Playboy, September 2006 and March 2008, Holly has become a regular, and much admired bunny girl. The September 2006 issue was a unique issue for Playboy with the girls being pictured from the front on the cover and a rear shot on the back cover!

Along with showing off her curves between the pages of Playboy magazine, Holly was also one of the stars of the TV series, The Girls Next Door, which also featured bunny girls, Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt in a day by day peep through the keyhole look at life in the Playboy Mansion.

 As President Obama keeps telling us, transparency is what it’s all about!

And that’s just the way Caprice saw it when she arrived at the 1996 British National Television Awards ceremony in a see through dress. This event caused Caprice to be banned from the show the following year, but she was soon invited back in 1998 at which time she wore a revealing $15,000 skintight dress bearing two British flag designs in tiny colored beads.

But it was her stint at Wonderbra that had her adorning billboards from one side of the Atlantic to the other. In 1996 Bourret was hired to launch “UK Wonderbra Week”, following in the footsteps of Wonderbra model Eva Longoria.

Although Caprice wore a transparent dress, her rise to stardom was far from transparently truthful. In several interviews she claimed to have come from a wealthy Hollywood family, when in fact she was raised in a shabby bungalow by her single parent mother, having been deserted by her car salesman father.

Later she was found to have deceived a boyfriend in 2003 when she claimed to be just 28 years old, when she was in fact 28. The guy in question was 21 year old Alex Davis who was heir to a $4 billion oil fortune. When the couple parted company Caprice sued a UK Sunday newspaper for accusing her of being a ‘gold digger’, and claimed during the court hearings that the boy’s mother wrote in a letter, ‘Caprice is perfect for my son. I look forward to planning their wedding’. Caprice was later forced to hand the money back when it was discovered she had used a forged letter to win the case.

With her profile rising, Hugh Hefner saw an opportunity to jump on the bandwagon and sought out Caprice to be a Playboy Bunnygirl and to appear on the cover of his March 2000 Playboy magazine.

During her time in the public eye Caprice has dated several high profile celebrity males including, Dennis Quaid, Rod Stewart and Matthew McConaughey.

Holding the title of the second oldest Playboy Bunnygirl to be named Playmate of the Month at 31, has never been a stumbling block to the career of Tiffany Fallon.

It seems Tiffany was being groomed from an early life for the role of glamour model when she first took to the pitch as a cheerleader in the late 1990’s when the Atlanta Falcons qualified for the SuperBowl XXX111.

Following her pitch appearance Tiffany went on to become Miss Georgia USA in 2001 and was second runner up in the nationally televised Miss USA event.

By 2004, Tiffany had caught the eye of Playboy entrepeneur, Hugh Herner when he asked her to pose for his publication and she was consequently named Playmate of the Month in December that year.

But greater things were afoot. In 2005 Fallon made it to Playmate of the Year for which she received earned $100,000 cash and was given a blue Chevrolet Corvette convertible.

Never out of the public eye for long, Tiffany also featured in an episode of E! reality television series, The Girls Next Door. She also had cameo appearances in other episodes.

Remaining a loyal Playboy bunny girl, Tiffany often gives her time to events and functions in the name of Playboy, including modeling the new bunny outfit created by Roberto Cavalli at The Palms in Las Vegas.

The only other Playboy bunny girl to receive the accolade of the oldest bunny girl Playmate of the Year was Kathy Shower who was Miss May 1985 when she was 33 years old.
