    Playboy is conducting a nationwide search for the sexiest Women of Wall Street to pose for an upcoming pictorial in both Playboy magazine and on Playboy.com. Almost 20 years ago, Playboy magazine first featured the Women of Wall Street (August 1989). Since then, the magazine has featured other economy-inspired searches including the Women of Enron (August 2002) and Women of WorldCom (December 2002).

    “Given the current economic climate, we thought that Wall Street could use something to smile about right now,” stated Gary Cole, Playboy’s Senior Vice President and Photo Director.

    Candidates currently must work for a financial institution or recently have worked for a financial institution to qualify. Women who are interested in posing can apply by sending one headshot, one full-body shot and a legible photocopy of a government-issued photo ID proving they are 18 or older. They also must include the following information with their submission: full name, age, hometown, phone number, e-mail address, employment location and a few sentences about themselves.

    Submissions can be sent to womenofwallstreet@playboy.com or mailed to:

    Playboy
    Attn: Women of Wall Street
    680 North Lake Shore Drive
    Chicago, IL 60611
    The deadline for submissions is October 24, 2008. All submissions become property of Playboy and cannot be returned.

    華爾街女白領失業/《花花公子》擬推專輯

    【大公報訊】綜合通訊社紐約三日消息:華爾街的金融海嘯,使華爾街不少白領女性失業。有見及此,美國《花花公子》雜誌即將推出「華爾街玩伴女郎」專輯,為這些失業女性找尋新的出路。

    《花花公子》是在華爾街爆發金融危機後想出這構思的。《花花公子》準備在二○○九年二月份推出這個「華爾街玩伴女郎」的專題。據悉,《花花公子》正在展開搜尋模特兒行動

    《花花公子》圖片編輯科爾表示:「當事情糟透時,以另一種方式呈獻,或許是一個可以博君一笑的機會。」科爾說,只要年滿十八歲,可以證明自己現在或是以前在華爾街任職的女性都可以報名拍攝裸照。他們最希望找到的是有金融分析經驗的女性。科爾說:「如果能找到一個金融分析家將更有趣。」

    《花花公子》本身也是上市公司。《花花公子》雜誌及其網站經常推出一些專題報道,如「橄欖園的女生」及「家得寶之女」。但在過去,它也曾推出一些龐大企業新聞的專題。二十年前,他們也曾經發行過「華爾街玩伴女郎」專輯。多年來,每逢有特殊事件他們都會出專輯,例如它曾因為美國能源公司安然及全美第二大通訊公司「世界通訊」破產時,推出「安然的女性」及「世界通訊的女性」專題。他們請這些公司的前員工和全世界赤裸相見。替這些公司員工保留美好的回憶。
