CJ Sparxx comes to Playboy Plus from a small town in California. “I’m originally from a town called Galt,” she shares. “I grew up on a farm. My childhood was fun! Everyone knew everyone, and I played with my cousins till sunset every day.” A model, sobriety influencer, and podcast host, CJ is no stranger to creativity, which shines through in her photographs. “I’m funny; I think most of my friends would say that right off the bat,” she shares of herself. “I love to laugh. I’m honest, genuine, and friendly.” CJ takes great pride in the content she creates and hopes to inspire others on their sobriety journey. “My passion is talking openly about my sobriety because it’s given me [my] life back,” she says thoughtfully. “I’m into health and wellness, [too], largely for the mental aspect!” We shot with CJ in Malibu with the photographer Sebby Raw. “I saw my first Playboy with my best friend, and we snuck into her brother’s treehouse— I was mesmerized,” she says. “Playboy is a big family. I feel like I joined a club, and it’s very satisfying!” Check out CJ’s features right here on Playboy Plus!
