Amanda Cerny Bio
Amanda Cerny is an American social media influencer, blogger, glamour and nude model. She was born Amanda Rachelle Cerny on June 26, 1991, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Playboy named her its October 2011 Playmate at 20. Her appearance came during Playboy's contemporary era of international and digital publishing.
Cerny has enhanced breasts, brown eyes and brown hair. Her measurements are 34-24-34.
Amanda Cerny was studying international affairs at Florida State University when Playboy presented an opportunity significant enough to interrupt her education. With two semesters remaining, she took a year away from university for her Playmate commitments. Her interest in the magazine had been sparked by high-school friend Kelly Carrington, whose own Playboy appearance convinced Cerny to submit photographs for consideration.
The response came remarkably quickly. Roughly two weeks after sending bikini and nude photographs to Playboy, Cerny learned that Hugh Hefner had approved her centerfold. She subsequently balanced promotional responsibilities with an interest in philanthropy, serving on an advisory council in Jacmel, Haiti, where efforts focused on rebuilding hotels and tourist attractions to support the local economy. She later participated in additional relief work connected with Haiti and Puerto Rico.
Digital comedy transformed the scale of Cerny’s career after Playboy. While pursuing acting opportunities, she began posting six-second sketches on Vine and accumulated around four million followers within several years. She used that audience to reposition herself around comedy and content creation, eventually writing, directing and producing thousands of sketches and music videos while developing enormous audiences across Instagram, YouTube and other social platforms.
Traditional entertainment and commercial work developed alongside her online presence. Cerny collaborated with companies and studios including Paramount, Universal, Comedy Central and NBC and appeared in advertising and fashion campaigns for brands such as Nike, Beats by Dre, Marc Jacobs, Ubisoft and Guess. Her screen credits included The Bet in 2016, identified as her first film credit.
Cerny subsequently expanded into entrepreneurship, production and longer-form media while continuing her philanthropic activities. She became involved with the video-on-demand platform Zeus and co-hosted a podcast with Sommer Ray devoted to dating and relationships. Her professional output ultimately encompassed modeling, acting, comedy, directing, writing, producing, branded campaigns and digital media—a considerable expansion from the short online sketches she initially posted while trying to secure acting roles.
