Sexy pop songstress
Willa Ford, who's hit song "I Wanna Be Bad," was a radio mainstay, bares all in a six-page nude pictorial in
Playboy's annual March "Sex and Music" issue, which hits newsstands today.
Not long after her debut album Willa Was Here became a hit, the then 20-year-old singer decided to put her music career on hold. "Music became this corporate world where you have to compromise everything, and I'm uncontrollable," she says. "I was recording in New York, and I got in a cab, called home and said, 'I'm finished. I’m not doing this anymore.' I mean, I had so much more fun taking my clothes off for Playboy than I ever had sitting in a studio writing a song."
Recently Willa focused on her television career and hosted the first season of The Ultimate Fighter. Additional television credits include featured spots on HBO's The Mind of the Married Man, MTV's I Bet You Will, and WB's Raising Dad.
Willa, now 25, has decided to go back to her musical roots and is currently in the studio completing her latest album.
