Playboy won't hire dancers?
I was just reading over an old thread and didn't know if anyone still read it anymore lol But there were a lot of comments about how Playboy won't work with dancers. Why is this? And if you do go to model for Playboy and give up dancing for awhile, are you supposed to never go back to dancing once affiliated with them, or once your modeling days with them are over, are you free to do whatever you please? This just really confused me, because I guess I never thought of Playboy as a business that would dismiss dancers

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
This is absolutly true.
Playboy considers themselves "Exclusive".
Witch means , there not going to pay you
to see what everyone els could see for free.
"Stripping, Camming, Nude modeling. Ect.
Though there are many exceptions , this is the General rule for them.
When i first started modeling , My first company advised me not do do nudes.
Just because if i ever wanted to be with companies such as playboy or penthouse (Penthouse isnt as strict) It would damage my chances.
IE If you can type in your Name/Stage name , and find ANY nude photos , Videos , Club promotion photos with you in it, Playboy most likely will pass you over.
Your not even suppose to send nudes to them to audition.

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
I worked with a girl at erotica in Pittsburgh that was supposed to be going to some shot with them in May and they know she's a dancer, that's where she got recruited but an older Playboy model so that weird, maybe there's some catch or something, or maybe it's not actually for the magazine itself or some other promotional thing.

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Cyber girls , Bunny Bartenders, And Playboy TV girls they dont take so seriously.
But aside from that , I know camming BADLY damaged my chances of going far with playboy.
I know because the first time i auditioned to be in playboy, I wrote , cam model on the form , and they said thats not what they are looking for. =[
Lol talk about "Bad for future work" when you cant even get hired as a NUDEY! lol

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Get the photographer to submit you under a different name. Katie Banks was on playboy.com but under a different name. That way Playboy didn't have any rights to her Katie Banks website.
Of course the flip side of that is that you can't market yourself as a 'Playboy model'
But whatever, I'm sure she is doing fine and Playboy aren't as popular as they used to be.

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
So, if I'm in any pictures for my club even if they are not nude, they wouldn't take me?
And to send pics in, you have to be covered ? IN a bikini or what? No nudes?
This is so crazy.

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Ive actual heard many PB reps refer to stripping (And i asume camming would be considered the same) As Filth.
I believe in the manner of ,
"Playboy is a Classy band of nudes, Art in many ways, We arnt strippers or porn stars , We chose not to be associated with such filth"
Not an exact quoat , Just something Ive ready when researching the Mag , When i wanted to be in it...

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Kylea has done work with Playboy in the past and I think she knows specific ins-and-outs of their rules.
I know that Kendra Wilinkson was openly a dancer before she went to live at the Playboy mansion.
I think they're only particular about it in certain cases.
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Lol like when they want to denigh a girl .
Heh i never knew Kenda was a dancer , She always said she
came to the mansion straight from high school lol.
I just asumed she learned at the mansion haah

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
She used to work at my club! Before I started working there though.
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
haha I bet it has pictures of her all over the place ! =P
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Interesting. I didn't know Kendra was a dancer, either.
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
I thought she was a dental assistant haha ><
jess
xxxxx

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Oh yeah! Kendra was a dancer. I watched her E true hollywood story and it mention about her being a stripper before playboy.
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Yeah Kendra was a stripper before Hef "saved" her. She talks in detail about it all in her book.

^^^not true to the best of my knowledge was friends with one of his girls Tiffany (she was the top girl when he still had 7) She was a stripper and so were a bunch of his girls (this came from her) The main deal was they didn't want the fact that you were a dancer to get out...the stripper background obviously goes unmentioned in your bio if they choose you.

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
If they didnt have these rules, they would have to hire all pornstar/strippers in the world if you think about it lmao.
I mean , Come on , whats hotter??!

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Playboy is sooooo played out. I wouldnt even worry. WHat is the title really worth....hmmm.
Nothing.

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
This is true. Playboy does not want women, who strip, cam, have posed for any other adult magazine, or have done hardcore porn. I know because I wanted to model for playboy and because I was a dancer they told me that they could not feature me in the magazine.
However there are a few exceptions to the rule but like everything else in life the exception only applies to you if you’re lucky enough to know the right people…
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
I've heard this but I don't think it's completely true. Anna Nicole Smith was a stripper and Jenny McCarthy was a lingerie model in bars and rumored to have been a stripper too.
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Girl I work with is currently living at the mansion and has posed for the minor playboy mags. Not sure if she's still dancing here since it's been a few months but she was a regular dancer at the club.
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
I think their real focus is still 'the girl next door', that 'innocent, wholesome' type, not to say that 'personalities' haven't appeared in the magazine that have had 'less pure' backgrounds. They even had a porn issue featuring Jena Jameson and others.
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
Yep, I know for a fact quite a few girls with playboy changed their model name. For example, Danielle Duvall, a amateur playboy bunny is known previously on the scene as Dani Miles or Dani Crush. That girl has sets all over, but never did any pink. Just a few nude sets and teenie bopper stuff.
-
Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
I don't think it's completely true. I worked with another dancer in IL that modeled for Playboy and they knew she was a dancer. I think it depends on the particulars in your contract with them. Not all are the same. :)

Re: Playboy won't hire dancers?
I know that this thread is really old... But I surprisingly haven't found any recent posts in my search for threads regarding the new playboy club opening in nyc. I know it's not a strip club, but its somewhat relative. Has anyone auditioned to be a bunny at the new NYC location? I'm just wondering if I DO go there and apply, if I should leave my dancer experience out of my resume for the very reasons this original thread discusses. I'm also flat chested, so I'm wondering if I should save myself the inevitible rejection if that's something they won't look past if the rest of your body/face is "hot". Haha.
So if anyone has any info. Pertaining to this... Please help a girl out! Thanks ladies.
