Playmate of the Year - Karen McDougal - Part 01

When patriotic beauty Karen McDougal became our 1998 PMOY, we certainly weren't surprised -- Karenmania had been sweeping the nation ever since her stunning Centerfold debuted in December 1997. The former preschool teacher with the Irish eyes, Cherokee cheekbones and "bubble butt" was an overwhelming favorite in the Playboy Readers' Poll, on Playboy.com and with the viewers of Playboy TV. We'll never get enough of Karen, but these never-before-seen photos and video will cure even the most incurable case of Karenmania, at least for a little while.
