Life Online: Myspace Playmate Mandy Lynn



Mandy Lynn is Myspace A List. She has over 175,000 Myspace friends, 350 pages of comments on her profile and has been named Playboy’s cyber girl of the week. Her fans love her. One of her 70 year old fans say is it best, “Man i wish i was 50 years younger.”Quiver & Quill spoke with Mandy about Myspace, Playboy and her life online.

Q&Q: How many times a day do you check your Myspace page?

Mandy: 1-2 times

Q&Q: In your profile, you call yourself a deep dork? Can you give me an example?

Mandy: well when i say dork, it is just kind of another way of saying that i am silly. Hehe and deep, i say this because i think a lot, sometimes even on a level most do not understand.

Q&Q: Do you have a secret Myspace page just for friends?

Mandy: no i do not have a myspace just for personal friends, that is a good idea actually! maybe i should.

Q&Q: Would you consider yourself Myspace A list?

Mandy: So i am told, i am very well known and recognized from myspace.

People see me out in person and are like “omg you’re mandy lynn from myspace, can i take a picture with you!” It is very flattering! I will also be part of the playboy models of myspace feature due out this summer.

Q&Q: Your Myspace page is very professional. Did you build it or have someone create it for you?

Mandy: well thank u very much! yes i did, i built it 100% on my own, most people are shocked by that and some may not believe and that is a compliment! i’m like its THAT Good? damn go me then! haha it get asked all day long where people can find that layout and im like “you can’t it is my own!” hehe

Q&Q: How have you dealt with all the fake pages? Are the fake pages good publicity for you?

Mandy: The fakers, years ago i used to get really pissed off by it, but I just roll my eyes, I am pretty well known so most people know me from playboy, and know my real page and website and stuff, but some do get fooled still.I don’t see the fakers as good publicity, they are rarely advertising any of my stuff so they are no help, they are just annoying.

Q&Q: Are you a member of online communities aside from Myspace?

Mandy: a few, but i rarely go on them, myspace is THE place to be! Hehe

Q&Q: Do you think more people know you from Myspace or from Playboy?

Mandy: I am well known from both, but i’d say myspace more, the whole world is on it!

Q&Q: What do you think of the concerns from the older generation that Myspace is, basically, ‘evil?”

Mandy: Oh gosh don’t get me started, it is really a shame that parents blame myspace, they need to realize it is not myspace’s fault that sometimes bad things happen as a result of people meeting up, what they need to do is warn their kids of the weirdos on the entire internet and not single out myspace.

Ambulance Chasing Spammers

My girlfriend was in a car accident yesterday. When I arrived at the scene, I interviewed several witnesses. A gentleman holding a baby volunteered his information. I wrote down his name and number.

Do you have an e-mail, sometimes it’s easier than bothering you on the phone you know…”He looked at me and replied, “Don’t spam me.”

Are you kidding me? It’s no longer about ambulance chasing lawyers but spam producing marketers. I wanted to respond, “You know, as much as I love speaking with you and not consoling my crying girlfriend, I saw this great opportunity to get your email address and add it to my collection of people to spam.”

Common sense is uncommon.
