Jaime Pressly Brings Joy

You may know Jaime Pressly from the sitcom My Name Is Earl, where she stars as Joy, but she's appeared in several Playboy publications, including nudes:

Playboy's Book of Lingerie Vol. 58 November 1997 - Michael Bisco, pages 56-59
Playboy's Book of Lingerie Vol. 62 July 1998 - pages 32-33
Playboy's Nudes December 1998 - pages 16-17
Playboy's Sexy 100 February 2003

She even made the cover of Playboy in February, 2004.

According to Hollywood.com:

Her film debut was in 1997's cable-friendly erotic thriller "Poison Ivy: The New Seduction" and posing for Playboy that same year made Pressly's body far more famous than her body of work. Still, those who looked past the film's disproportionate amount of nudity would find that Pressly made the most of her role and brought an eerie coolness to the part of Violet that proved she had more to offer.

Unlike some girls, Presley was able to take nude photos and spread them into a career instead of ending one. A career that in 2001 even Playboy remarked upon -- without mentioning that she'd appeared nude in their publications. Which seems odd, but what do I know?




Recently Pressly had a baby and apparently she was clueless about the 'joys' of pregnancy. However, Jamie clearly isn't an idiot. Along with her celebrity status she's started a clothing line, J'aime, to continue to make her hay when that sunshine fades.

It seems a bit ironic for a gal who turned taking her clothes off into a career to start whoring clothes, but well, if we could all buy a body like hers, then Playboy wouldn't be in business would it.

It takes a savvy woman to realize she can make a fortune off dressing those of us who wish we could look like her naked.

She may play white-trash on TV, play it in photos, but she's certainly anything but.
