Tiffany Selby Bio
Tiffany Selby is an American actress, glamour and nude model. She was born on November 14, 1981, in Jacksonville, Florida, and has also been credited as Tiffany Riley. Playboy named her its July 2007 Playmate at 25. Her appearance came in the 2000s, as Playboy's print tradition began to share space with an expanding online presence.
Selby has enhanced breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 34-24-34.
Tiffany Selby entered professional modeling with an unusual head start: she had been named Miss Baby Jacksonville when she was only a year old. Her mother later encouraged her to attend modeling school at 15, and by her late teens Selby was competing in Hawaiian Tropic contests. After relocating to Orlando, she developed a steady commercial career through print advertising, calendars, catalogs, billboards and promotional assignments.
Competition and promotional modeling became particularly productive areas for Selby. She placed fifth in the U.S. finals of the 2004 Miss Hawaiian Tropic competition and became a member of the USA National Bikini Team. Her commercial credits included work for Budweiser, Hankook Tires, MHT Wheels and Suzuki, while an appearance in the 2006 Miller Lite calendar added another nationally recognizable assignment to her portfolio.
Playboy arrived through a personal connection. Selby was friends with Kara Monaco, Playboy’s 2006 Playmate of the Year, who referred her to the magazine. Selby traveled to Los Angeles and photographed her centerfold at Playboy Studio West. For an experienced working model accustomed to promotional assignments, the opportunity offered something different: extensive travel and the variety of appearances associated with being a Playmate.
Television subsequently became another outlet for Selby’s modeling career. She appeared as herself on The Girls Next Door and Bikini Destinations while continuing to work professionally in Los Angeles. Her interests also extended behind the camera through hair and makeup artistry. Selby hoped to develop a celebrity clientele in that field and eventually create her own cosmetics line, ambitions that drew naturally on skills acquired through years around professional shoots.
Selby’s personal tastes were considerably less conventional than the polished commercial image required by many of her modeling jobs. She was an enthusiastic shopper with an appetite for expensive denim, but also a punk-rock fan who singled out Rancid among her favorites and described tattoos and a mohawk as attractive qualities in a man. By the time Playboy selected her, she had already moved through beauty competitions, bikini modeling and national promotional campaigns, giving her centerfold a foundation in years of professional experience.
