Retrospective Playmate Ranking – 2009 - Playmate Crystal McCahill

Retrospective Playmate Ranking – 2009

by PML on Dec.01, 2009, under Playboy Mailing List

This is my ranking and I’m sticking with it. In my book, Dasha was a poor choice for 50th Anniversary Playmate, as I ranked her below the Shannon twins. The Shannon twins are tied in my book, but since Karissa was July, I’ll give Kristina the higher spot. I think Hope is this year’s best so I gave her the top spot but I don’t think she needs the PMOY title, she already has a lot going on for her. So my personal choice for PMOY is Kelley, I met her in person at GC and she was very nice and personable and I think she would be a good pick. I like Jessica a lot, but I don’t think she’ll get it due to her relation with Playboy as of late. I would be delighted if Kim Phillips or Lindsay Evans gets it, but anyone below that is a bit disappointing.

I think Crystal Harris is the odds on favorite since she is Hef’s bottom bitch, but I think the sleeper choice is Crystal McCahill due to her good relation with Playboy and her mother being a former girlfriend of Hef. But of all the Playmates, other than the twins, I personally dislike Cyrstal McCahill the most, it just seems like she would be the least friendly to meet in person. I could be wrong though.

She seemed friendly enough at the Chicago Glamourcon in August. I’d think that should would be perfectly suitable in the role of PMOM from the standpoint of personal appearances (and not turning out to be an embarrasement to Playboy).

As for embarrasements – I share your dislike of Dasha. From her first appearance on TGND I’ve cringed every time she was on-screen. Her selection as 55th Aniversary Playmate (over Hope, Crystal or Jessica) was just another sign of how much Hef has lost touch with what the readers of Playboy expect from the magazine.

I agree that Kelley would make a fine PMOY.

About Hope, I am still confused why she became a Playmate. How can this help in her career as a fashion model?

As for you saying Crystal McCahill may benefit from being Gale Olson’s daughter, I can’t think of instances of Playboy giving past Playmates extra importance or even Hef giving his past girlfriends special consideration.
