Biography of Samantha Karen Fox (a.k.a.: Sam Fox)
 Samantha Karen "Sam" Fox (born 15 April 1966 in Mile End, London) is
an English former glamour model and dance-pop singer.
In early 1983, Carole Fox photographed her teenage daughter wearing lingerie and
submitted several pictures to the The Sunday People newspaper's "Face and
Shape of 1983" amateur modeling contest. Judged joint runner-up in the contest,
Fox had her pictures published, and was soon after invited for a test shoot for
The Sun newspaper's Page Three feature. Her parents gave their consent for their
daughter to pose topless, and on Tuesday, 22 February 1983, Fox's first Page Three
photograph was published under the headline "Sam, 16, Quits A-Levels for
Ooh-Levels."
Fox's Cockney background, bubbly-blonde looks, winning smile, and 36D breasts
made her an enormously popular Page Three model. After famously insuring her
breasts for a quarter of a million pounds sterling, she won The Sun's Page Three
Girl of the Year award for three consecutive years between 1984 and 1986. She
also posed nude for several British soft-porn magazines, although very few full-frontal
shots were ever published.
Fox retired from Page Three modelling in 1986, at the age of 20, by which time
she had arguably become Britain's premiere sex symbol of the era. In 1995, aged
29, she made a one-off appearance in The Sun to promote Page Three's 25th anniversary
week. After receiving an overwhelmingly positive reader response, she appeared
in the slot every day during the anniversary week, with Friday's final topless
picture given away as an A3-sized poster. In 1996, aged 30, she appeared in
the October
issue of Playboy magazine. These were her final published nude photos.
Samantha Fox was, in a online vote held by the British Newspaper the Daily Star,
voted by its readers, as 'The best page 3 pin up ever' in September 2008. As a
result of the poll win, she appeared topless for the first time in 12 years in
the Daily Star although on page 5, not page 3.Full name: Samantha Karen Fox
