[recruited by Playboy] A Playboy scout gave me her card and I fluffed it off. But then I thought about it, called her and she explained to me what it meant to be a Playmate... I went to Chicago, did the shoot and that was that.

[nude scenes] I won't do it if it's nudity for love scenes or in a pool. I wouldn't do that because it is gratuitous. However, if it was for a part of a mentally disturbed patient under treatment in a hospital, who is perhaps lying on a table with no clothes on, and she is freaking out, then that's okay. But nudity for sexual reasons, it's not necessary.
