Introducing this month’s cover star Katie Flowers / @katieflowersmod

Tell us about the moment you found out you would be featured in the magazine. What was your initial reaction? I was honored and felt beyond blessed to be a part of this iconic and inspiring brand to people around the world.

What’s the strangest fan encounter you’ve ever had? I really don’t have anything that is strange to me. I have a lot of funny things happen to me all the time. This comes to my mind right now I was blowing bubbles with my chewing gum at the Formula One in Las Vegas. A fan came up to me and asked me if he could pop my bubble with his lips Of course I said yes!

What’s the best “wardrobe malfunction” story that you can now laugh about? I was in the middle of a photo shoot for Playboy when the doorbell rang, I was expecting my best girlfriend. I flung the door open and to my surprise, it was the maintenance department and to his surprise, I was in my birthday suite completely nude.

What are some of your biggest dreams you hope to achieve? I want to expand my life coaching and become a sex therapist. My many amazing experiences give me a better understanding and a true insight into what it takes to remain positive and happy through life.

What’s the weirdest beauty tip or trick you’ve picked up? I love scooping out the gel from a fresh aloe vera leaf and applying it to my face, next and décolleté.

If you were stranded on a deserted island with only one accessory, what would it be? Cell phone fully charged making sure the vibration function works.

What’s your go-to guilty pleasure snack? I love frozen Snickers bars.

Can you share your favorite shot or spread from the magazine and why it holds special significance for you? I love where these photos were shot because it’s full of life, energy, and people having fun! This spread was taken in Las Vegas where my second home is. I love the positive energy this city holds, at least it does for me. I’ve had the best experiences here while creating lasting memories.

When you’re not working, what helps you decompress and relax? Hot yoga. Practicing hot yoga naked in my steam room. Going to the spa. Hot bubble bath with candles and, a glass of wine while listening to Sade. Traveling with a generous gentleman. Love making. Connecting with people on a deeper level. Spending quality time creating memories with others. Giving and receiving massages, I feel like the human touch is something that we all need and benefit from.
