Special called 'Nude
Playmates',
which came out on March 18th, 2003. Playboy asked me a lot
of questions about being nude and this will be from the last

July/August, 1997
Cover: I'm kneeling on my knees
with my hands in my hair wearing light lavendar lingerie.
It was real scary waiting for this issue to come out.
Since we don't get to select the photo used all you can do is
hope they select one that you like. And I do. Whew!
Page 1, title page: Similar to
the cover, but I'm topless. Page 2, Inside:
Copy: And the winner is, drumroll please, Petra Verkaik.#FF0000
(That's not exactly how I said it. What I said was more
like, when I got the phone call from BOL I thought, wow, I must
have done pretty well. But when they told me I won, I
thought how cool, especially when most the girls are so much
younger. And I thought my Playboy modeling career was
over at 24). And with 19 other gorgeous and younger supermodels
the readers could have voted for, why you?
"I think I have a sexy yet nonthreatening look. There's openness
and maturity and I come across in a friendly, inviting way.
There's nothing fake about me!" (Um, again, this
wasn't exactly what I said). Our congratulations to
Petra and to the others who we have crowned "Supermodels."

blue corset and bright pink stockings. This image also includes
my name in the lower right and a NSS 97 Reader's Choice Supermodel

all in which I'm wearing a light blue corset and pink stockings
and posed in slightly different ways. Page

upper right photo I'm topless, sitting on a white chair with
a scarf draped around my waist and upper thighs. The lower right
photo I'm nude, sitting in the white chair with my head tilted
way back with only a purple bra positioned below my breasts.
Page 7: I'm topless and sitting
on a white chair with with a scarf tied around my neck and draped
