Brittany Brousseau commands admiration from guys and gals alike. She's not scary in the least—quite the opposite, she's a blast and full of zest—but her perfect blend of stunning looks, sharp wit, and daring spirit sets her apart. 'Picture me as sugar spiced with spice,' Brittany quips. 'I'm super adventurous, always chasing the grandest thrills and ready for whatever fun comes my way!' Hailing from California and nurtured on a Kansas farm, our newest Playmate kicked off her life rising before sunrise to bundle hay bales. Surprisingly, Brittany once eyed a future in policing and even joined the academy, only to pivot at the last second toward modeling. Call it nerves if you want, but the results prove her choice spot-on. 'I got scouted at eighteen,' she shares. 'Modeling and acting let me explore the globe.' Her big break hit fast, with gigs in ad shoots leading to notice from Playboy's top shooter, Josh Ryan. 'Josh kicked off my Playmate journey,' Brittany recalls. 'He asked me to audition, I got the nod—but then panic struck and I bailed!' Thankfully, she regrouped and stepped up as our blushing May beauty. 'That initial shoot was my nude debut,' she notes. 'After a year of reflection, I built real self-assurance, and now I'm thrilled to dive in!' From farming chores to chatting with the press, Miss May 2015 has traveled far, yet she downplays it all casually. 'Deep down, I'm that gritty farm girl,' she affirms. 'Never imagined becoming a Playmate, but fate aligned perfectly. I'm over the moon I went for it!' Case closed with a smile.
