Trixie Cruz: Yes, It's True

This March, in celebration of Women’s Month, I will be featured in a men’s magazine known for its racy and sexy photos. So before the issue will come out, and before someone thinks that I have given up my law practice for a more salacious career let me tell you this in advance.

I am one of the women whose pictures appear in FHM’s tenth anniversary edition. Comparatively speaking I have more clothes on than most of the women in it, so before the naysayers start speculating, I’m stating it now, for the record, that it is so because the nature of my profession is more conservative than that of the average FHM model. Or so I’d like to think. Haha.

 So why did I pose?

 There are multiple answers for this one:



a. I didn’t pose for a men’s magazine, these are all hidden camera pictures!!!
b. Someone told me I COULDN’T do it.
c. Its in my bucket list and I couldn’t wait until I was sixty five, so…
d. The guys need a good laugh, its election season and all the jokes are running for office. Why not one in FHM, di ba?
e. The women’s magazines were all taken.
f. All of the above in varying degrees of truthfulness.

So I’m not an entertainment personality looking to revive my career by going racy, my career is doing fine, thank you very much. And I’m not a struggling actress/singer/host/whatever looking to make a name for myself, the only struggle I’m concerned about is the armed one, and I’m totally against it. But I do like to stand up for certain things. The same way those really good-looking actresses or models pose in lettuce leaves for animal rights, I’m doing the same for other causes, like unjust detention and the oppression of political activists. Minus the “really good looking” part.

For any more information, I guess you have to get the magazine.
