Qiana Chase

Meet Qiana Chase, our Miss July 2005. She’s tall – 5’9” – and all natural, with long legs, even longer in a pair of heels. Born and raised in south central Los Angeles, California, Qiana started out with Playboy Special Editions – she did two newsstand issues before she tried out for the 50th Anniversary Playmate Hunt. “Posing nude comes naturally to me,” she says. “My mother had to beg me to wear clothes.” These days, Qiana is a model, actress and makeup artist in Los Angeles. After she made the Centerfold, she did a 50 Cent video, and had small roles in Epic Movie and Funny People. “I value my independence,” she says. “I want a man who knows who he is and what he wants in life.” When she’s not working, she likes to take it easy – hanging at the beach, or heading to the club with friends. “Being a Playmate is a great opportunity,” she says. “I love life, and I want to live mine to the fullest.”
