Carol Vitale was an American-born Playboy model, glamour model, Playboy Bunny, fashion designer, television personality, and radio host. She was born under the sign of Scorpio on November 14, 1946 in Elizabeth, New Jersey, United States. Her birth name is Carol Ann Marie Vitale.
Carol Vitale was Playboy Playmate of the Month for July 1974. She was awarded the prestigious title of Playboy Playmate at the age of 27. Her measurements are 37-22-35. Carol Vitale had natural breasts, soulful brown eyes, and luminous blond hair.
When Carol Vitale first caught the attention of Playboy, she was working as a Bunny at the Miami Playboy Club-an experience that would lead her to grace three Playboy pictorials and even land the cover of the August 1972 issue before her official debut as Playmate of the Month.
Her centerfold, beautifully captured by David Chan, highlighted her all-American beauty, warm smile, and effortless elegance, making her an instant favorite among readers. Her Playmate of the Month feature wasn't just popular in the U.S.-Carol also earned the title for Playboy France, Playboy Germany, and Playboy Italy in July 1974, making her an internationally recognized Playmate.
Beyond modeling, Carol had a passion for media and entertainment. In the early 1980s, she transitioned into broadcasting, learning the ropes at Los Angeles radio station KIIS-FM, before launching her own talk show, "The Carol Vitale Show". She became a charismatic on-air personality, proving that she had just as much charm behind the microphone as she did in front of the camera.
Carol also had an eye for fashion, designing lingerie collections for Frederick's of Hollywood, blending sensuality and elegance in a way only a former Playmate could.
Despite her passing, Carol Vitale's legacy as a Playmate, media personality, and fashion designer continues to shine, a testament to her talent, beauty, and ambition.
