WINDY CITY NATIVE CRYSTAL MCCAHILL
IS PLAYBOY’S MISS MAY 2009
Crystal McCahill, daughter of Miss August 1968 Gale Olson, is Playboy’s Playmate of the Month for May 2009
Crystal knew from a young age that she wanted to follow in her mother’s footsteps and pose for Playboy. “I remember telling my brothers and sisters, ‘I’m going to do that one day. I’m going to do the exact pose.’” And the brunette bombshell followed through. She pays homage to her mother’s 1968 pictorial by also posing poolside with an inflatable swan just like her mother had done over 40 years ago.
Miss May was initially discovered when she attended a Chicago casting call as part of Playboy’s 55th Anniversary Playmate Search last year. Soon after she ran into the Girls Next Door filming an episode at Hooters and then coincidentally bumped into Playboy Photography Director, Gary Cole. “He said, ‘Yes, I think it’s meant to be,’” explains the sexy Chicagoan. “All those years I waited to be a Playmate like my mom, and this just happened so fast.”
Miss May graduated in 2001 from Christian Liberty Academy in Wheeling County, IL, after living in Hawaii with her family for seven years. She competed on a swim team in high school and also worked part-time at Galati Pizza, a local pizza parlor in Round Lake, IL.
When she isn’t tending bar at a few of Chicago’s hottest night spots, you can find her relaxing at home with her friends or hanging out with her big family.
