Playboy Playmate

Dean
S. Planet: You lived in Philadelphia for some years.
Who do you think makes the
best Philly Cheese steak? |
Victoria
Zdrok:
I really can't tell you, since I don't eat red meat and have
never had a
Philly Cheese steak! |
| Dean
S. Planet: Do you prefer nude, fashion or lingerie
modeling? |
Victoria
Zdrok:
Nude modeling, of course. I especially love shooting for my
website,
www.PlanetVictoria.com,
where I have over 6,000 nude photographs of me, plus thousands
of nude photos of other Playmates, Pets and top internet models.

 Dean
S. Planet:
Is your sister still modeling?
Victoria
Zdrok:
Yes, she is. She recently was featured in Nugget magazine;
and she has a very sexy website, www.UninhibitedIsland.com,
which has thousands of her pictures.
Dean S. Planet: How has
your degree in psychology helped you in the entertainment
industry?
Victoria
Zdrok:
So far, it hasn't, as the industry has not yet picked up on
the fact that I have my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology. I hope
to be writing a feature column on psychological topics in
Penthouse; and I am writing a book on sex and fantasy. These
writings should help to establish my credentials as a "sexpert,"
and may help to give me other opportunities in the entertainment
industry.
Dean
S. Planet: Do you feel that men are more intimidated
by your beauty or your intelligence?
Victoria
Zdrok:
Probably by my intelligence. Men tend to look at Playmates
and Pets as sex objects and are not prepared to deal with
one who is far more than that. |
Dean
S. Planet: Have you kept a close relationship with
Playboy since 1994 when you were
a Playmate? |
| Victoria
Zdrok:
No! I had such a close relationship until 2000, when Playboy
tried to prevent Playmates from having personal websites and
from posing for other web sites like Danni's Hard Drive. When
I refused to kow tow to their demands to cease all such activities--because
I had to make a living, and their demands would have prevented
me from surviving economically--Playboy cut all their ties
with me. I have always been willing to work with them, but
they have been totally unwilling to have any relations with
a Playmate that is independent from their control. |
| Dean
S. Planet: So, you never visit the Playboy Mansion? |
| Victoria
Zdrok:
Not any more. Playboy has refused to allow me to enjoy any
of the privileges of other Playmates since 2000, when I would
not agree to their demands (as I mentioned above) |
|
| Dean
S. Planet: Who has the most say as to who will
be picked for Playmate of the Year? |
Victoria
Zdrok:
Hugh Hefner has 100% of the "say." He picks the
PMOY regardless of the
opinion of fans or other Playboy officials. |
|
Dean
S. Planet: Which do you consider a greater achievement,
being a Playmate or Penthouse
Pet? |
| Victoria
Zdrok:
Being a Pet was a much greater achievement. I was "discovered"
by a Playboy scout, flown to Chicago for tests, and immediately
made a Playmate--all within weeks and without any effort on
my part. I had to really work to become noticed by Penthouse
photographers, and to overcome their prejudices against shooting
a Playmate for a Penthouse centerfold, i.e. their beliefs
that Playmates were not erotic or daring enough to become
Pets. Only Linn Thomas and I have ever accomplished this feat
in the entire history of the two magazines. |
| Dean
S. Planet: Would you ever consider moving to adult
films? |
| Victoria
Zdrok:
No, not at this time. After my performance in Michael Ninn's
highly erotic video/DVD "Temptation" (which you
can buy on my
site), many people have asked me to go further into adult
films, but I don't believe that that would further my career.
|
| Dean
S. Planet: Who is your favorite Playmate? |
 Victoria
Zdrok:
I would have to say Debra Jo Fondren, PMOY 1978. With her
long, long blonde hair and fantastic body, she is still very
beautiful today (as you can see on her site, www.debrajofondren.com);
and she is a complete sweetheart in person.
Dean S. Planet: Do you
make a lot of personal appearances and/or sign a lot of autographs?
Victoria
Zdrok:
I make lots of personal appearances for Penthouse, mostly
in the NYC area; and I do some of the big autograph shows
like Chiller.
You can get an up-to-date list of the shows at which I will
be appearing on my Appearances Page on www.PlanetVictoria.com.
Dean
S. Planet: Are you friends with any Playmates?
Victoria
Zdrok:
Yes, with many of them. Linn Thomas (May 1997) is one of my
good friends, as well as the other Playmates who have websites
on my server, www.cybermatewebservices.com.
Dean
S. Planet: Do you still feel that you should have
won the 1994 PMOY Award instead
of Julie
Cialini? |
Victoria
Zdrok:
Yes, I believe I should have been picked over her. I was told
that I would have been PMOY but for some false rumors that
"someone" circulated to Hef's wife, Kimberly
Conrad,
about my allegedly having an affair with Hef (which was totally
untrue). Julie happened to be a friend of Kimberly's and spent
much time at the Mansion (while I was in school full time
in Philadelphia); and that may have had a lot to do with her
being picked. |
| Dean
S. Planet: Were you ever contacted by the Sultan
of Brunei? |
| Victoria
Zdrok:
No, never. |
