Denise Michele brought a touch of Hawaiian charm to Playboy. Raised in the paradise of Hawaii after her family moved from California, Denise graduated from Kailua High School in 1971. Her natural beauty and warm, exotic allure made her an unforgettable Playmate, with her pictorial shot by Ken Marcus. But Playboy was just the beginning of her time in the spotlight.
Denise wasn't just a centerfold-she became a recognizable face beyond the pages of Playboy. Music fans may remember her as the stunning woman playing strip poker with Robert Palmer on the cover of his 1976 album "Some People Can Do What They Like". She also made her way into film and television, landing minor roles in "The Jeffersons" and the made-for-TV movie "Three on a Date".

Her journey eventually led her behind the scenes of Hollywood. She married American director David Kellogg, known for his work in commercials, music videos, and films. Together, they built a life in Hidden Hills, California, raising their two sons and daughter.
Whether gracing Playboy's pages, appearing on album covers, or taking on small but memorable roles in Hollywood, Denise Michele left a lasting impression. Her blend of island beauty, adventurous spirit, and talent made her more than just a Playmate-she became a part of pop culture history.
