Explicit photos 'too hot'.

The New Zealand Truth. Thursday September 29, 2005

Posing naked has revealed more than an Auckland lass could have imagined.

Danielle Murray-Zahorodny, 18, was voted NZX Magazines Fox of the Year for her nude photo shoot in the publication.

She was also named miss Erotica 2006.

The confident, unashamed Westie said she would not do explicit photos again but has no regrets as it had opened doors into her dream job - television presenting.

"I thought about it a million times and then thought "I'm 18, and will do what I want."

Danielle posed in the magazine under the fake name Reece and was voted Miss Fox by readers.

"I won't be doing the explicit shots for NZX again. I think it was an experimental phase. I did not like the impact on my family."

But as Miss Erotica, Danielle will be replacing this years babe Michaiah as the face and body of Erotica 2006.

"The pictures will be more erotic and sensual, leaving a bit to the mystery."

Danielle hails from Bethell's Beach and "I absolutely love being a Westie". Since the photo shoot she has become assistant event organizer for The Erotica Lifestyles Expo and has several chances to be a television presenter.

"Fortunately, I have met great people to get me into this line of business." She says just what the shows are, is hush-hush until she signs on the dotted line.

But one could involve her biggest passion - cars.

She says she loves working on cars and motorbikes, and enjoys most motor sport. To be given the chance to present at an event would be a dream come true.

"I love the beach, love cars, love rock music and love cars, cars, cars!

Danielle's ideal man is tall, dark and handsome, with blue or green eyes.

"Definitely someone car-oriented," she says.
