Kitana Baker (born Christi Josenhans[1] on July 15, 1977) is an American model and actress
Born in Anaheim, California, and of Chinese, Hawaiian, German, and Irish ancestry, Baker has appeared in numerous films, videos and television shows, and has worked for both E! and Playboy. She was first discovered in the "Girl Next Door" contest held by Playboy where she was chosen as the winner. She does most of her modeling for her own official website, which she frequently promotes on radio, such as on The Howard Stern Show. Perhaps her biggest claim to fame has been a series of cleavage-intensive Miller Lite beer "catfight" TV commercials with fellow model Tanya Ballinger in 2002.[2] She revisited this role in an homage to the catfight ads in 2007 produced by iFilm.com.[3] She also played herself in the mockumentary Incident at Loch Ness, in which she is purportedly hired to operate the sonar equipment, but whose real purpose is to plunge into frigid Loch Ness while wearing a g-string bikini.[4]
[edit] World Wrestling Entertainment
Baker made appearances in two WWE pay-per-view (PPV) programs, and various WWE-related promotions:
- Unforgiven 2002 – Where she played part in a "HLA" ("Hot Lesbian Action") theme that former WWE Raw manager Eric Bischoff built up around that PPV. Baker was taken out to the ring with Bischoff and a second "lesbian" and were scheduled to "perform" lesbianistic antics with Stephanie McMahon. However, it came to a close as Bischoff had other ideas.
- WrestleMania XIX – In her second WWE appearance, Baker was joined with Tanya Ballinger. Reprising their roles as the Miller Lite catfight girls, they faced off against Torrie Wilson and Stacy Keibler in a "Fatal Four-Way Pillow Fight" which took place to one side of the WrestleMania XIX stage. The match was originally scheduled to take place in the ring but Baker and Ballinger argued over whether they should "settle it" in the ring or "in bed"; it was rescheduled to take place as a pillow-fight on a king-size bed.[clarification needed]
- WrestleMania XIX teasers – Prior to PPV event, Baker and Ballinger were featured in promotional commercials; similar to the Miller Light ads but arguing over who would win at Wrestlemania as oppose to the Miller Light drinks.[clarification needed]
