Wednesday, December 31st, 1969

In an article posted in “El Nuevo Dia”, Denise discusses her personal thoughts on one of the controversial issues that has surfaced with the recent events surrounding Tara Conner, Miss USA.

Patricia Vargas, reporter for the paper, asked Denise if she would ever pose for a media outlet such as PlayBoy magazine, and Denise responded that she wouldn’t, stating that that type of photoshoot doesn’t interest her. Additionally, and quite diplomatically, Denise also adds that she has no problems with anyone who chooses to participate in PlayBoy photoshoots.

Denise is also asked whether or not she’d ever appear nude in acting. She thinks that acting in film or theater are different and that she would consider it if the script called for it.
