Cindy Margolis

Cynthia Dawn "Cindy" Margolis (born October 1, 1965) is an American glamour model and actress. Margolis was born in Los Angeles, California. She started her modeling career on her own. While attending college at California State University, Northridge, she had a project in business class that dealt with greeting cards. She took this idea further and started selling a line of cards with her body dressed in lingerie on them. She even put her phone number on the cards. Her modeling career took off when agents started asking about the woman on the cards. She has modeled in advertising for companies such as Reebok, Vidal Sassoon, Coors, Hanes, and Sunkist. Among late night television viewers, she is best known as an infomercial co-presenter on classic ads (e.g. with Tony Robbins) as well as shady ones (e.g. Don Lapre's "tiny little ads"). Margolis has also appeared briefly as one of Barker's Beauties in 1995 on the game show The Price Is Right. She had a late night Saturday talk show in 2000 called The Cindy Margolis Show, which was filmed in Miami Beach, Florida. Margolis emerged as a star in her own right in the early days of the Internet. As she had done with greeting cards, she created her own website rather than wait for opportunity to find her. She was named Yahoo! Internet Life magazine's "Queen of the Internet" from 1996-1999. She also found her way into the 2000 Guinness Book of World Records as a result of being the "most downloaded" person in 1999. At the age of 34, the peak of her popularity, she was downloaded 70,000 times in a span of 24 hours. In this time, she never posed topless or nude in appearances on her website or in Playboy.
