Candace Leilani knows how to bend. A small brunette from up near Eureka, she cheered through high school, ran the squad, even tried out for the Raiderettes. Now she’s in Los Angeles, chasing a modeling career, when Playboy finds her photos online and decides that body belongs on their pages. She shows up for the casting call nervous but thrilled, then nearly bursts when they ring her back. “I’ve wanted this since I first picked up the magazine,” she laughs. She’s the kind of girl who walks into a room and feels the temperature shift. She knows the power of a slow glance and a half-smile, and she’s shameless about using both. Late at night she’ll send teasing selfies to boys she barely knows, and she swears her greatest trick is the way she can clap her ass on cue. “Not sure if that counts as a talent,” she says, biting her lip. Up north people move slower, she explains; down here the competition is fierce, but her easy laugh and soft curves give her an edge. As December’s Cybergirl she poses without a stitch of hesitation, back arched, legs spread, the camera drinking in every inch. We’d take her any way she’ll let us.
