Kimberley Stanfield

Playboy Playmate of The Month for July 2001

Kimberley Stanfield Bio

Kimberley Stanfield is a Canadian glamour and nude model. She was born on November 18, 1981, in Vancouver, Canada. Playboy named her its July 2001 Playmate at 19. Her appearance came in the 2000s, as Playboy's print tradition began to share space with an expanding online presence.

Stanfield has natural breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 34-24-34.

Kimberley Stanfield had been modeling since infancy, appearing in local catalogues long before Playboy entered the picture. Growing up in Vancouver, she also developed a strong athletic background through cheerleading, basketball, volleyball and soccer. She considered cosmetology school and trained as a lifeguard, suggesting that modeling was only one of several possible directions open to her.

Playboy gave Stanfield a much larger stage than the catalogue work she knew from home. Even so, she did not describe herself as someone naturally drawn to attention. At the time, she said that her real ambition was to become an elementary school teacher, a striking contrast with the highly visible world she had just entered.

That visibility nevertheless brought her into some memorable Playboy occasions. In 2001, Stanfield attended the Grammy Awards with Hugh Hefner, placing her among the Playmates accompanying him at one of the entertainment industry’s most prominent events. She also recalled meeting a famous musician at the Playboy Mansion whom she had admired for years.

According to Stanfield, the encounter produced what should have been a memorable photograph: a security guard snapped a picture while the two were kissing. When she later developed the film, however, she discovered that the guard’s finger had covered the lens. The resulting photograph became an inside joke, since friends were understandably skeptical of a picture that failed to show the very moment it was supposed to prove.

Stanfield’s Playboy profile presented a woman whose public image and private ambitions did not neatly match. She had modeled since childhood, competed in several sports, trained as a lifeguard and then found herself attending the Grammys with Hefner, yet she still spoke about family, teaching and living day by day rather than building a long-term career around celebrity. That tension between an unusually visible Playboy experience and her stated preference for a quieter life is one of the clearest themes in her story.
