Chanel Elle is an honest-to-goodness California girl. Hailing from sunny Newport Beach, she’s petite and all natural, with sandy blonde hair, blue eyes and a penchant for the beach. “My dad was a pro surfer, and my mom was a model, so I’ve always been on the go,” says Chanel. “And yes, I’ve always loved the beach! I’m definitely a little sugar cookie.” Chanel started modeling when she was young, and when she turned eighteen, she decided to try out for Playboy.
