Becoming Attraction
Becoming Attraction: Rachelle LeahAs a former Ultimate Fighting Championship Octagon Girl, Playboy’s November cover girl Rachelle Leah practiced the time-honored ring girl’s art: strutting around in a skimpy getup, holding a card and looking hot. For this interview she wore a baseball cap, a tank top and jeans, and she looked—according to some dude at the supermarket—daaamn hot. “I was just there, and this guy’s like, ‘Daaamn, girl,’” she said. “That bugs me. If I were a guy and I found a girl attractive, I wouldn’t be like that. I’d say, ‘You’re absolutely beautiful. Can I take you out to lunch?’” Of course she’d do it that way. Rachelle is a go-getter who loves extreme sports and was training to be a paramedic when her modeling career took off. She’s not invulnerable, though; she confessed to suffering from anxiety about the aforementioned skimpy getups. And it’s not just at the matches: She also flashes the flesh as host of UFC All Access, an MTV Cribs-style show. "Honest to God," she told Playboy recently, "if you just met most of our guys, you wouldn't guess they were fighters." But don't expect to see Rachelle in the ring again anytime soon. "You will never see me fighting," she says. "I think the only thing a guy would want to see is my having a pillow fight with a hot girl, and I'm not doing that, either." ![]() ![]() ![]() Sep 8, 2010
