DeCesare was born in Avon Lake, Ohio and lives in Westlake, Ohio. She graduated from Avon Lake High School in 2000, and later worked at a title company in the Cleveland area. She responded to Playboy's "Who Wants to Be a Playboy Centerfold?" search when it came to Cleveland and was selected as a finalist for the competition. However, she had second thoughts and withdrew early in the taping of material for the Fox Network special that aired in the summer of 2002. DeCesare then changed her mind about posing for Playboy again, and was quickly named Cyber Girl of the Week in October, 2002, Cyber Girl of the Month in February, 2003, before being selected as Playboy 's Miss April, 2003.

WWE RAW and Other Television Appearences

She competed in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) $250,000 RAW Diva Search and came in second to Christy Hemme. Though she came in second, she developed as a heel and WWE decided to keep her temporarily. She competed in a match against Christy at Taboo Tuesday and appeared several times on the WWE's RAW series. She also appeared on the game shows Family Feud on May 10, 2004, the Howard Stern Show, and Street Smarts.

Arrest

On September 10, 2004, she pled not guilty to assault in a Cleveland, Ohio court after a catfight in a bar on August 21, 2004 between DeCesare and Kristen Hine, the ex-girlfriend of then-Cleveland Browns quarterback Jeff Garcia, who was dating DeCesare.^[1] She was acquitted of the assault charge on January 12, 2005 but found guilty of violating a restraining order. She was sentenced to do twenty-four hours of community service, given one year probation, and fined $150. During the trial, DeCesare testified that Garcia had been involved in an affair with Hine.^[2]

Playboy Swimsuit Calender

She appeared in the 2005 Playmates at Play at the Playboy Mansion swimsuit calendar as calendar girl of March. The calendar was the inaugural Playmates at Play calendar and it was shot on the grounds of Playboy Mansion in 2004. It was Playboy's first attempt at creating a non-nude swimsuit calendar featuring Playmates similar in style with those from Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

Breast Implants

In 2005, pictures circulated on the internet showing that DeCesare had received breast implants. DeCesare confirmed this in an episode of the E! reality-TV series The Girls Next Door in August 2005. She said that her implants looked fake because they were new and had not fully settled. ^[3]
