Be a Playboy Bunny

Have you ever dreamed of modeling for a magazine like Playboy? If so, there are two different ways you can apply! Scroll down to Step 1 to start you on your path to achieving your dream job.

Steps

Attending a Casting Call

  1. Find out when the next Playboy casting call is coming to a city near you. You can either run an internet search to find out when a casting call in your area might happen, or you can go on to the Playboy website--they have a map that shows where the ongoing casting calls are happening. If there are no scheduled casting calls in your area and you think you have what it takes to be a Playmate, you can travel to the areas that do have casting calls to audition.
    • Having modeling experience isn’t required--the photographer at the audition will guide you through the photo process.
  2. Prepare for the big day. In the weeks leading up to your audition make sure you maintain a healthy eating and exercise regime. Playboy is looking for the sexiest girls around. Get to a point where you feel confident and comfortable in your own body. After all, a big aspect of Playboy is feeling comfortable being nude.
  3. Pick out the perfect outfit. You are required to either wear lingerie, a bikini, or a swimsuit with heels. Go shopping before the casting call and find your perfect outfit. Look for a sexy, unique wardrobe that will show off your best assets. Pair your look with the perfect heels--these should match and make you look like you have legs that are a mile long.
  4. Get your beauty sleep the night before. While you might be wide awake with nerves, excitement, or a combination of the two, you really should get some rest the night before. After all, you want to be on your A-game for the audition, bright-eyed and lively. However, don’t take anything to make you fall asleep--things like sleeping pills can make you groggy the next day.
  5. Bring two forms of identification. Playboy requires that you bring two forms of identification to the casting call proving that you are 18 or older. One of the IDs must be government issued and have a photo, your birth date, and an expiration date (like a driver’s license, passport, or state ID). The other does not need to be government issued but should have your name and birthday on it (this could be your birth certificate, social security card, voter registration card, etc.).
    • You don’t need to bring a portfolio with you. However, extra photos will be accepted and added to your bio form. Keep in mind that these photos won’t be returned to you.
  6. Do your hair and Get Sexy Evening Eyes before you get to the casting call. Playboy requires that you have your hair and makeup done already before your show up for your casting call. Remember, less is more! Aim to look your absolute best--if your hair looks best with a curl in it, curl it before you get there.
  7. Know what will happen at the interview and photoshoot. When you get to the casting call, you will have to show both of your IDs and complete a bio form. You can also fill out a model release form, but this is optional. You will then change into your lingerie or bikini, put on a robe, and wait to be called. The interview will be casual, during which time you will have a professional photographer take photos and a video of you. This interview and photo shoot will last 15 to 20 minutes. Show ‘em what you got girl![1]
    • Keep in mind that you are auditioning for Playboy and should be alright with nudity, even during the interview--a certain level of nudity is actually expected of you.
  8. Be patient while waiting for a call. Playboy may take four to six weeks to get back to you after your casting call. Playboy states on their website that they will not accept calls about your audition status. If you do get selected as a Playmate, Playboy will give you specific instructions to follow. You will sign a contract and have your own spread in their magazine. Plus, a playmate is a playmate for life! That means attending parties and entering into the running for Playmate of the Year.
    • If you haven’t gotten a call from a Playboy representative within six weeks, it means that there isn’t an open position for you in the magazine at this time. However, your casting call audition will be kept on file and considered in the future.

Applying Online

  1. Take photos for submission. If you were unable to make it to a casting call, you can apply online by sending photos in for consideration. Playboy requires that you send in one headshot and four to six full-length nude photos. These photos don’t have to be taken by a professional, but they should be in-focus (no blurry shots ladies!). Half of the shots should be of your frontside, and half of your backside.[2]
    • Make copies of your photos because your photos will not be returned after the application process, whether you get hired or not.
  2. Make a copy of your ID. The Playboy application requires you to send in a scanned copy of your photo ID proving that you are 18 years of age or old. This is really important because your application won’t be accepted without proof of your age (no matter how sexy or well-shot your photos are).
  3. Have all of your information ready before you apply. You will need all of the normal information (including full name, address, date of birth, and whether or not you are a United States citizen). You will also need physical information. This info includes your present height, weight, bust size, waist size, hip size, hair color, eye color, and ethnic background.
    • If you are enrolled in college, you will also need to write down your major and school activities, as well as your college’s name and location.
    • You also have the option to post links to any online presence you might have, including your website, Facebook page, or Twitter ID.
  4. Know that there are other modeling opportunities aside from Playmate. When you apply for a model position as a Playmate at Playboy, your application automatically gets sent to other modeling sectors of Playboy. Even if you don’t get hired as a Playmate, your application will get reviewed by other sections of the Playboy business, so you still have the potential to be hired as a model. These other modeling opportunities include Cyber Girls, Playboy Special Editions, Playboy Golf, and others.[1]
  5. Fill out the online application. The application can be found here. As stated above, you will need to fill out all of the information, upload your ID proving you are 18 or older, and upload your photos. You will also be required to write your digital signature and check the ‘I agree’ box stating that you acknowledge the rules and swear everything you wrote down on the application is true.
  6. Know what will happen if you are chosen. You should hear back from Playboy within four to six weeks. If you have not heard from them around six weeks, it means there isn’t a Playmate opening at this time. However, if you do get selected, you will be flown (all expenses paid) to meet with a Playboy photographer for a photo shoot.
