Chasity Samone Bio
Chasity Samone is an American glamour model, actress, and activist. She was born on April 7, 1991, in Dallas, Texas. Playboy named her its February 2020 Playmate at 28. Her appearance came during Playboy's contemporary era of international and digital publishing.
Samone has natural breasts, brown eyes and black hair. Her measurements are 33-23-34.
The Army came before modeling for Chasity Samone. After high school, she followed the example of her father, also a veteran, and enlisted in the U.S. Army, serving for three years before deciding not to reenlist. It was an unusual foundation for a career that would later encompass fashion, acting, Playboy and political activism, and it remained an important part of her public identity when she became a Playmate.
Modeling arrived almost accidentally. Samone recalled an agent posting her photograph on Facebook and asking who she was; friends tagged her, the agent arranged a shoot, and professional work followed. Her subsequent modeling associations included Karmaloop, Mishka, Married to the Mob, Jeffree Star, Danessa Myricks, GoldLink and Wale, while public profiles have also connected her with runway work for Michael Costello. Acting-related credits later included New Guards, Nerdist Presents and Wale: My PYT.
Playboy had been in her imagination considerably earlier. As a girl, Samone remembered telling on her brother for taking their father’s magazines before eventually looking through them herself. Naomi Campbell’s Playboy appearance proved especially memorable. Seeing Campbell photographed for the magazine gave Samone an example of a Black woman occupying a glamorous space in which she rarely saw women who looked like her. Years later, that childhood reference acquired considerably more meaning.
Her selection as Miss February 2020 came as part of Playboy’s Equality Issue, where representation was central to the editorial conversation. Coverage of Samone’s feature also connected its imagery with Darine Stern, whose 1971 cover made her the first Black woman to appear alone on Playboy’s cover. Samone was explicit about what her own appearance meant to her: she wanted young Black women looking through Playboy to see themselves represented in a way she had once looked to Campbell.
The ambitions she discussed around the feature extended well outside modeling. Samone spoke about working toward civic leadership in Dallas, including an interest in the City Council and issues affecting lower-income communities, education and equal opportunity. That makes her February 2020 Playboy appearance one element of an unusually varied biography: an Oak Cliff upbringing, Army service, professional modeling and a stated interest in public office. Even her route into Playboy forms a neat generational thread—from discovering Naomi Campbell in her father’s magazines to becoming the woman she hoped another young reader might discover there.
