Kristi Frank
Nude

Sometimes to get ahead in business, a girl can do worse than have a great body. The advantage of a fantastic physical container is of utmost importance if a young woman’s ambitions veer in the direction of softcore erotic drama, such as that purveyed on the Showtime late-night series Red Shoe Diaries during its seven years of premium-cable dominance. The saucy grin and twinkling sensual electricity sparkling from eye to eye are indications of up-and-comer Kristi Frank‘s confidence in her bodily presence. The “Swimming Naked” episode of Red Shoe Diaries proves unequivocally that this confidence is well placed. In the years since her Red Shoe plunge, Kristi shifted her sites from erotic fiction to the heated competition of reality TV, appearing as a contestant applying for a high-six-figure position with Donald Trump on The Apprentice. If those six figures were awarded on the basis of who brings the best figure to the table, Kristi would have the job in the bag. Alas (and what an ass!), Kristi got axed about halfway through the hit reality show’s run.
