Estimated Most Popular Playmate – 2008 to 1996

Based on all the data I had from before and the replies I received to my retrospective ranking for each year, I did some rough calculations and tried to estimate the most popular Playmate for each year.

I am not for a second trying to suggest that this data is very conclusive. I am merely presenting it as a suggestion open to further discussions.

While going through this list and deciding for which of the years you agree with the selection and for which of them you don’t, please do not match with your personal choices but instead go by what you believe is the most popular choice. You would have some idea in your mind as to which Playmate could be the popular choice for each year based on your discussions on this board as well as your interactions in other venues.

Let us see for which years we agree right away and for which of them we don’t. Where we don’t agree we can exchange a few posts and see if some consensus can be reached. If not then we will list out the possibilities and leave the final choice as debatable.

For some of the years it’s very tight between two or more Playmates. In such cases I have tried to select the Playmate who the fewest number of people would object to i.e. she may not be their top choice but would probably be in their top three. For the sake of uniformity I am stating only one name against each year. You can easily guess the closest competitors.

Here is the list of the selections for each year.

2008 – Kelly Carrington

2007 – Brittany Binger

2006 – Alison Waite

2005 – Amanda Paige

2004 – Tiffany Fallon

2003 – Carmella DeCesare

2002 – Teri Harrison

2001 – Lindsey Vuolo

2000 – Brooke Berry

1999 – Jodi Ann Paterson

1998 – Lisa Dergan

1997 – Karen McDougal

1996 – Karin Taylor

Retrospective Playmate Ranking of the 2000s

I am only doing a Top 5 of each year, there is a lot of ties on the 5 spot because I thought many of them are equally worthy of a top 5 spot. I also have in parenthesis my top 20 of the decade. This is a very important decade to me, because it is the one I really started collecting and following Playboy. A lot of you have Sandra Hubby fairly low in 2004, but she is one of my top 5 of the decade and I consider her a Marissa Miller lookalike when she first pose. I think Alison Waite, Nicole Voss, and Lauren Michelle Hill are a close 1,2, and 3 respectively.

I also ranked the years and the qualities of Playmates. I ranked 2001 my top year because there is 4 top 20s but 2006 is a close second with both 1 and 2 in that same year. I like 2004, 2007, and 2009 equally. I think 2009 is a fairly good year, giving us at least 4 memorable Playmates. I thought 2008 was also a decent year with the likes of Regina Deutinger, Kelly Carrington, and AJ Alexander all very memorable. 2002 and 2003 were the dark years, they did have decent girls like Lauren Anderson and Marketa Janska, but they don’t rank as high on my list. I give Marketa a tie for 20, just so 2003 would have someone ranked.

Also, Sara Jean Underwood was once very high on my list, but recently has dropped a lot for some reason. Still a very sweet girl in my book, but I think her fall is because I really like Alison, Nicole, and Jordan to be PMOY and I thought she robbed them of the title. Maybe it’s just the mood I’m in when I wrote this, but SJU probably broke all my Top 5 about two years ago.

The only PMOYs that made my top 20 is Jayde Nicole at 13 and Kara Monaco at 14. Go figure.

Sara Jean Underwood Playboy Calendar!

Posted on October 7th, 2009 in Playboy by lalate

Sara Jean Underwood Playboy Calendar 2010

Sara Jean Underwood joins Karissa and Kristina Shannon (photo above) in the 2010 Playboy Calendar.
Sara Jean Underwood is among Playboy’s Calendar girls announced for its 2010 issue launching in just a few weeks.

Playboy Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends Karissa and Kristina Shannon grace the edition along with some familiar faces, including LALATE’s fav Jessica Burciaga.

The calendar is set to have a selection of women from different backgrounds. They include Candice Cassidy, Ida LJungqvist, Sasckya Porto, Kayla Collins, Crystal McCahill, Dasha Astafyeva, Kelly Carrington, Hope Dworaczyk and Grace Kim.

On the big screen, Underwood this week wraps production on the film Zellwood opposite Patricia Rosales (Miss Cuba). LJungqvist was the 2009 Playmate of the Year, Underwood taking top honors in 2007.

2010 Playmate calendar: a disappointment

I just bought a copy of the 2010 Playmate calendar today, and I have
to say I am quite disappointed over it. Of the 12 photos, only 1
appears to have been taken exclusively for the calendar; the others
are all outtakes from well-known pictorials or recycled shots that
have already been published.

In the “already published” category is Sara Jean Underwood, whose May
calendar picture is directly from her PMOY pictorial in the May 2007
issue. Also, Kelly Carrington’s September photo was already published
in her Oct 2008 magazine pictorial.

While Sasckya Porto’s February picture hasn’t been published before,
it is an almost identical pose to her 2009 calendar shot, and it is
also a very close shot to one in her Cyber Club Playmate portfolio –
an outtake from her PM pictorial. It is too soon after the 2009
calendar shot to feature this almost-identical pose.

Candice Cassidy gets a Cyber Club portfolio shot for her calendar
page, so it isn’t a new photo, either. She looks stunning in it, but
I really wanted a new, unpublished photo.

Several other photos are outtakes from Playmate pictorials. Dasha
Astafieva, Kayla Collins, Hope Dworaczyk, Grace Kim and the Shannon
Twins fit into this category. Some of them have nearly identical
poses already published in the Cyber Club.

Beautiful as Kayla Collins is, I think the photo chosen of her is
rather weak in terms of body angle. They should have chosen a better
photo for a calendar.

Crystal McCahill gets an outtake from her 50th Anniversary Playmate
test that isn’t particularly flattering.

The only photo obviously not an outtake or reprint is Ida Ljungqvist’s
(January) — and oddly this photo looks like it was intended for
December rather than January due to the gifts in the setting.

Jessica Burciaga gets a decent bedroom shot; at least we haven’t seen
the exact setting before.

Gone are the days when the calendars were exclusive photos done
explicitly for the calendar. I am very well aware of how good many of
the calendar shots were in the past due to my current project of
scanning them all. I started with 1958 and have completed all through
1993 so far, and there are some amazing images in there. Many of them
were obviously very deliberately set up and posed to make strong,
stunning images for the calendar. The current one looks thrown
together as an afterthought in comparison. I am very disappointed.

I expect that come 2010 I will be hanging up past calendars rather
than the current relatively weak one most months.

CyberClub Featured Models for Sept 2009 (preview)

o quite a few Playmates from 2008 have now done Playmate Xtra – Campbell Twins, A J Alexander, Kayla Collins, Laura Croft with Michelle McLaughlin and Valerie Mason in the pipeline. That’s half the year covered already. I am surprised Kelly Carrington from the same year hasn’t done this yet.

27 Playboy Playmates Who Twitter

Playboy-Twitter-Lead

These days, pretty much everyone is on Twitter. But most of the time, all you get is the occasional funny link and a whole lot of “I’m eating lunch!” So instead of the same ol’ nonsense, spice up your Twitter feed with some of the hottest women around: Playboy Playmates. Sure, they’re probably just as boring as the rest of us, but at least you stand a good chance at seeing a TwitPic of their boobs! (You know, besides all the other pictures of them naked…)

Playmate Review

I was just in the book store yesterday and looked at the PM Review mag.
I really wanted to buy it, but I just couldn’t bring myself to plunk
down that much money for it. BTW, Kelly Carrington shows he well
defined abs in her pictorial in that issue.

My take on July/August issue

I liked the Ecko pics as well. I have some photography books from artists like Guido Argentini, Frank De Mulder, Herve Lewis, Bruno Bisang, etc., I hope he does a book, too.

I also liked that how to take a bath pictorial and, like you, wondered why the pics were so small and mostly the same. I had no idea that was Kelly Carrington.

Maybe it’s time to rethink the Brazil Playboy subscription? The soccer issue is one of my favorites. Or maybe they can make a Norway/Brazil edition, haaha.
