Mo Bunnies Mo Problems

An alert commenter let me know that I’d missed a few SI girls in my list of Playboy appearances.

Lena Kansbod had a cover in February, 1977.


This was a much sultrier shot than her SI cover of the previous month.

Barbara Carrera had a nice pictorial to tie in with a long-forgotten movie.


The photos are a lot more timeless.

And Amber Smith made a March, 1995 appearance, just after her two SI issues.


Her photos have a fun showgirl feel to them. That's by design: In her interviews, she says, "For me to be sexy—and this is what I told [photographer] Bert Stern—I need humor and playfulness. I can't do innocence."

In addition to those three, I’ve discovered that luscious 2017 rookie Kelly Gale also revealed herself in the September, 2016 Playboy, during their Year Without a Nipple.


You don’t have to show everything to stop my heart.

Mercy.

There may well be more girls who have done both magazines. But this is a good overview.

By the way, here are those hidden bunnies: necklace in mouth, cigarette, feathers in front of left biceps, t-shirt rips by left fingers.
