If you're 19 and you don't look good, it's nature's fault. If you're 35 and you don't look good, it's your own fault.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
'Playboy Magazine' has been a devil's advocate for me. Because of the image and type-casting, it's harder to convince people that I can sing. Yet, I probably wouldn't have had the chance, had it not been for Playboy.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I made quite a lot of money in commercials and I decided when I got out of school to take singing lessons so I could get into singing commercials, too.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
There came a time when I had to decide between show business and devoting my full time to medical training. I chose show business.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
When I first came to Southern California I enrolled at UCLA in pre-med. My fathers a doctor. But the sight of blood turns me off, so I began doing television commercials.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I take every lesson in the book: singing, acting, guitar, piano, jazz, organ and tap-dancing.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
People, whatever their profession is, have a right to fight for the right causes.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I'm no libber. I like it when a man looks at me and treats me like a woman. I do think though, that women should get equal pay to a man doing the same thing.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
People automatically assume that if I get anywhere it's because of my association with X, Y or Z, or because I'm pretty.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I want to get past the Playboy image and really develop myself as an actress, a dancer and a singer.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
When I first started to sing, people automatically asked what Barbi Benton was doing behind a microphone, and I'm determined to show them there is talent here.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
The 'Playboy' affiliation will probably stick for the rest of my life to some extent.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
In 'Sugar' I'll be singing in every episode and I'll be acting and doing comedy. It's ideal for me if it works.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
Joining 'Hee Haw' was one of of the best moves I ever made. Until then I had no television exposure except the talk shows.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I'm not really the star of 'Sugar.' I'm co-starring with two other girls, Marianne Black and Didi Carr. We play roommates in the series and we sing together professionally.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
You can't let fashion tell you what to do. If it doesn't look good on you you're better off without it.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I buy unknown, lower-name brand jeans. I don't care about the name brands, if I look good in the jeans I don't care who made them.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I like low-cut clothing because I am a believer that one should emphasize their best points.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I do two things every single day - I go running and then I do weight lifting.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
When I was growing up, we were in a high income bracket, one of the highest. I was one of the first in high school to get a car. And I didn't have to wait for it to be a graduation present, either. We've probably got one of the nicest houses in Sacramento.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
There are some things I like that Hef likes, too. For example, Colonel Sanders' chicken is a standby. I've never been able to figure out how to recreate the combination of herbs they use to flavor the crust.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
Hef is boring to cook for. He likes a total of four main dishes: fried chicken, pot roast, pork roast and pork chop sandwich!
Quote by -Barbi Benton
If it were up to me, I wouldn't have security. But Hef thinks I'm naive. He feels I'm vulnerable to kidnapping.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I think everyone should be creative in some way, otherwise you have no self-respect. That's why I believe in women working.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I'd like to be known as something more than a girl who goes to lunch with her girl friends and goes shopping.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
My singing teacher said it would take three years before I could sing well enough to be accepted as a professional. They were wrong. It took me five years.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
Most of all, I want to be known as Barbi Benton, the singer, not as Hugh Hefner's girlfriend.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
I was studying pre-med at UCLA when I decided show business was for me, and the best way to make it was in music. I had just one problem. I was tone deaf.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
My young face keeps me in the running for youthful roles. If my face is going to look 22 then so should my body.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
At 35 women are at the bottom level of middle age but we can look like we are absolutely in our prime. Even if you're badly out of shape, you can put yourself in good shape in two years, maximum.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
It's not that I don't have talent. I've had four gold albums in Scandinavia and they never heard of me as anything but a singer.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
One never knows when the angels are coming to get you, but everybody has to go.
Quote by -Barbi Benton
People recognized us together and our names were synonymous. Whenever you heard Barbi Benton, you think of Hugh Hefner. And I loved that. I was his girlfriend and he was my boyfriend.
