HOT

Cynthia Lea

Born on a hot August night, I was bright-eyed and eager to tackle the world! I did everything early - walking, talking, you name it! My Mom still laughs when she talks about me posing and smiling anytime a camera came near.

My Dad was in the military so we moved around a lot while I was growing up. I didn't mind too much because it gave me the chance to meet and get to know a lot of different people! It seemed as though we could never make it out of the small towns but that was fine with me. People from small towns are typically always really nice and hospitable and I learned a lot about treating people like I want to be treated.

It was during one of our many moves that I found my first Playboy and was instantly in awe! I didn't know who these women were but I wanted to grow up to be just like them! Of course, my modeling career didn't start until much later, but at that moment, I knew what I wanted to do with my life!

During my pre-teen years, we lived near my grandparents who had a huge farm and I would often spend most of my time playing with the animals or rolling in the hay! It doesn't take much when you're young! :) And, I was always getting into trouble! I loved to wander off by myself, and with the vast amount of land, lots of buildings, and a nearby river, it was definitely enough to keep my Mom on her toes!

In my teen years, I started entering beauty pageants and modeling for local businesses. I still loved being in front of the camera and jumped at the chances! I continued modeling for various companies in print, on runways, and doing promotions until one day I decided to launch my own website. I loved the idea of being able to meet so many new people and have a new world of opportunities!

When my site launched, I was estatic! I met so many people and made many new friends! My website eventually led to me being offered a contract with a modeling agency that I decided to accept. I was torn between leaving my site and moving forward but I decided to go for it and see what happened. To make a long story short, I disagreed with a lot of concepts that the agency endorsed and I just wasn't having fun or enjoying it anymore.

After some time I was able to leave the agency and go back out on my own. I decided to return to where I felt "at home" and could be totally in control. I wanted to launch a brand new website, where I coud do what made me happy and do it on my own terms!!!

Right after I made this decision, I learned that Playboy was searching for their 50th Anniversary Playmate. I packed my bags, drove 6 hours to the nearest audition location and the rest, as they say, is history! I wasn't selected as the 50th Anniversary Playmate, but I was thrilled to learn that they wanted me to be a Cyber Girl at Playboy.com! I appeared on Playboy.com as the Cyber Girl of the Week for May 17, 2004. You can read my full Playboy experience in my Members area.

After my Playboy audition but before my CGOW appearance, I participated in numerous promotions and shoots for various companies and have been working very hard on my new website. I hope you enjoy visiting the site as much as I enjoy having it! And, of course, if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, let me know!

I've often heard people say, "Reach for the stars, you may just catch one." Leo Burnett somewhat agreed when he said, "When you reach for the stars, you may not quite get one, but you won't come up with a handful of mud either!" I just think that you are meant to be whatever you dream of becoming!

Here's to dreams!
