It was a good Millennium for us breast men, wasn't it? The best one so far. Looking back, it was a Millennium for the ages. God gave us a cornucopia of natural bosoms AND the ability for mankind to manufacture ones of stupefying and totally bizarre proportions. And as a society we became totally obsessed by breasts.

Not that there's anything WRONG with that...

I've been "ping"ed every day recently with various forms of the same question, "Who's the greatest big-bust model of the Millennium?" Wary of the role subjectivism plays in that kind of experiment, I really could only reply with vague responses suggesting that there were perhaps some twenty to thirty women--actresses, figure models, strippers, adult performers, miscellaneous celebrities--who would, for me anyway, qualify as the creme de la creme of the Tit Culture. Which is a perfectly reasonable evasive answer.

But I'm rarely one to settle on an evasive answer, so I thought about it. Who would I pick? Well, that's hardly an easily answered question. I collect photos of hundreds of the most spectacularly-appointed femmes of the past half century, and picking one, or even a (forgive me) HANDFUL, is hardly indicative of my appreciation for them all. But she'd have to have a world class figure--beyond superlatives. She'd have to be pretty. Not Claudia Schiffer-like, or Michelle Pfeiffer-like--those are face girls. But a Millennium Boob Girl would have to be well-qualified in all aspects of the aesthetic.

She'd have to have had some lasting import. Now, I realize that breast admiration may be a fringe element of society--as much as we'd like to think that the entire world has heard of the icons we adore, that just isn't so. On the other hand, within our community I think it can be stated with some assurances of certainty that some women are more beloved, more known for, and have promoted their breasts, and the appreciation thereof, more than others.

Finally, I decided that I'd risk comparing buxoms between distinct "eras". That's always dangerous, in this case simply because sex, physical manifestations of sex and the idealization of the "sex symbol" are so vastly different now than, say, fifty years ago when the Tit Culture was born. By today's standards, what was sexy in the 1950's is considered nearly wholesome. Case in point: a friend of mine--a contemporary, aged 30--recently watched a Marilyn Monroe movie and said he found her to be "motherly". Of course, this was a guy who fawns over Tiffany Towers.

I guess I'm a bit more jaded when considering the younger perception of what is "sexy". Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I've seen a lot of "glamour babe" memorabilia in my day and I think there is a timelessness of classic cheesecake, photographed by the likes of master photogs like Russ Meyer, Ron Vogel, Keith Bernard and others, which seems lacking in the big bust erotica of today. There was a sweetness in cheesecake photography--even in nude photography--before the pubic revolution of the 1970's and beyond, when the reader unwittingly conspires with the photog to perform gynecology on the model. Now, that innocence so revered in the 1950's and 1960's seems as though it belongs to another...Millennium.

Still, once in awhile, along comes a woman whose physical gifts transcend the times and the medium in which she is portrayed. I guess that's the best way I could describe just what a "Millennium" model is.

It's really too bad that the lads who suggest that the artificially-enhanced "supertitters" in today's stock men's magazines represent the "epitome" in women's figures. I won't deny the shock appeal of seeing those stuffed supertits in a tight wrapper, but somehow comparing ....THOSE...with the "Real Thing" cheapens the value of an Anita Ekberg, a Virginia Bell, a Roberta Pedon, women whose lush home-grown figures made them figurative and literal figurative physical standouts from their peers. Sarenna Lee has a jaw-dropping set of udders, to be sure, but in the present day and age, she is but one of a seemingly endless parade of artificially-stuffed, peroxide-haired, collagen-lipped Barbie Dolls rolling off of the assembly line straight into the pages of slick men's mags. God love them for it, to be sure--breast men owe them a great deal of gratitude--but, as Sarenna's own advertising says it so well, she's a "Marilyn Monroe for the 'NINETIES".

The value of a Millennium Girl ought to be measured by the impact she has on her forum. That is, a buxotic ought to be considered in relation to her times, her era, her peers, and her effect on the Tit Culture. Having a chest the size of a zeppelin, with its own zip code, isn't enough. Having the goods to buy the election doesn't mean you're the best. That ought to tee off enough breast enhancement fanatics for one month, but it's mathematical fact.

Don't get me wrong--I love bazooms--big breasts--be they D cups or triple Ys. But a Millennium Girl is far more than her cup size.

With that in mind, then, here's a ten spot that ought to evoke some of the br---, uh BEST memories of the past half century of the Tit Culture. Bare in mind, these aren't the ten biggest-bosomed women of the past fifty, nor the prettiest, nor even the most acclaimed or most published. They are ten ladies whom I believe will be beloved and revered as the greatest bosom icons of all-time when our great grandsons are mouse-clicking through the pages of some future big tit magazine.

My "Number One" Millennium Girl is saved for the end. The other nine, in no particular order, are as follows:

   
   
ANITA 
EKBERG
I've written a good deal about "Ekberg the Iceberg" in other articles, but I'll mention here that Anita almost single-handedly drove Hollywood's infatuation with bosoms during the 1950's. Sure, along would come Jayne Mansfield, and Mamie Van Doren, and Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe had already introduced Hollywood film audiences to the appeal of curves, but it was Anita who really launched America's love affair with bazooms. She was goddess-like in her Nordic beauty, her much-more-than-ample breasts an almost shocking contrast to her flawless facial features. No less an expert than the King of the Nudies, Russ Meyer, proclaimed her as "perfection in female anatomy", and still mentioned her, forty years later, in Playboy's Voluptuous Vixens. THAT is some serious, long-term impact. I am an active Ekberg collector and can aver to the fact that eBay auctions for Ekberg items draw rabid bidding today. If only for her formfitting little black dress and deep-dish cleavage in La Dolce Vita and Boccaccio '70, Ekberg would merit inclusion on this list. With her relatively long spotlight as a sex symbol, during the 1950's and 1960's, Ekberg is arguably THE greatest bosom icon of the Tit Culture.
   
   
VIRGINIA 
BELL
She was a cute, if not glamorous, redheaded 1950's burlesque striptease starlet of impossible proportions, in an era when breast augmentation was but a pipe dream. Often billed as having a 48" chest, such a number is entirely feasible given the documentary evidence. Her stripteases are vividly-recalled today by fawning big-boob admirers who often advise that seeing her in person was their greatest personal accomplishment. I can recall nearly choking with glee the first time I discovered her picture in an advertisement in the back of a long since forgotten men's magazine. Virginia Bell kind of had that effect on a lot of fellows, I would guess. At five foot two, her frontal spillage seemed even more vast, more unbelievable. Virginia's burlesque career was her bread and butter, though for years she was heavily promoted by Fling magazine, the King of tit mags until its demise into oblivion in the early 1990's. She also featured in an abnormally large number of nudie "loops"--8mm "stag" type films that featured models posing in a variety of cheesecake-themed "plots" (i.e., mostly proudly displaying their breasts and rolling around on the bed). Virginia is a Tit Culture legend, mostly because she is proof positive that enormous supertits did exist before models were helped out by silicone and other substances.
   
   
ANN 
MARIE
A curious choice, perhaps, especially when women like Chesty Morgan and Candy Samples from the same era garnered more publicity, but if one woman ever exemplified the perfect Russ Meyer Girl, it would be Ann Marie. Her kewpie doll face was pretty enough, but it was the electrifying sight of her unfathomable profile in Meyer's Beneath the Valley of the Ultravixens that everyone most remembers about a Meyer movie. Rightfully so, because of what Meyer calls Ann Marie's "eighteen inches of perpendicular breast". Ann Marie was discovered by Meyer in Chicago, where she worked as a stripper in a local club. The only enhanced woman on this list, for sheer shock value, Ann Marie is most deserving.
   
   
DOLLY 
PARTON
The most mainstream of the ladies on this list, with the possible exception of Anita Ekberg, what more can be said about Dolly that hasn't already been said? At the height of her beauty, during the 1970's, no woman was more recognized for her curves than Dolly. Remember the joke about Dolly having to buy her bras at the Datsun dealership because she needed a 280Z? Or when she told Johnny Carson that she'd be considered "bosomy" even in Tennessee? Or when haughty Barbara Walters curled up her lip when Dolly told her, "Honey, I don't sing with mah boobs!"?
   
   
USCHI 
DIGART
Woe is the poor fellow who never heard of Uschi. She was everywhere, in almost every exploitation film during the late 1960's and throughout the 1970's. In many ways, as the adult entertainment industry evolved from busty nudie cutie mags and movies, in the 1960's, to hardcore pornography in the 1970's, Uschi was the tit man's salvation. Not that there weren't other delightfully well-built women modeling during that era (to wit: Suzanne Pritchard, Lane Weldon, Joyce Gibson and others), but few of them were as universally beloved as Uschi, probably owing to the fact that she willingly agreed to make softcore sex films at the drop of a hat. Indeed, well over a hundred of such films were graced by the lush figure of Uschi, though certainly her best-recalled roles were in the films of Russ Meyer, Cherry, Harry & Raquel and Supervixens. From 1968 until the early 1980's, no woman featured in more men's magazines.
   
   
CYNTHIA 
MYERS
Playboy is not necessarily the Boob Man's boon companion, but it usually is the first taste a wanton, red-blooded youth has of the fairer sex. It is the most mainstream of men's magazines, and thus its impact is more far-reaching than other mags in the genre. Once in a great while, Playboy goes against what has become a depressing tradition of featuring bleach-blond 36-24-36 clones and features a Playmate for the ages. The greatest ever was December 1968's Cynthia Myers, and the article title said it all--"Holy Toledo!" Her published 39-24-36 vital statistics understated her appeal--she was by far the most stunning physical specimen Playboy ever featured. Later, a part in Russ Meyer's deliciously decadent Beyond the Valley of the Dolls cemented her exalted status as a Tit Culture phenom.
   
   
ROBERTA 
PEDON
Many would claim that the baby-faced, redheaded Argentine (Italian?) Roberta Pedon, as prolific in mid-1970's boob mags as any model, was the greatest physical specimen of all time. I'm loathe to disagree. Her perfectly-slung, pendulous breasts hung on a legendary 41DD-22-33 frame coupled with a perfectly-toned physique not normally seen in such buxom women. She never starred in a mainstream film, though a part in the campy Delinquent Schoolgirls still boggles the mind. Her career was brief--within a few years she had retired from modeling, never to be heard from again. She reportedly underwent breast reduction surgery after she quit modeling, in the late seventies, but her massive photographic portfolio lives on and makes her one of the absolute heavenly bodies in the Tit Culture universe.
   
   
JOAN 
BRINKMAN
Probably the most personal choice of the women on my list, Joan was one of the most beautiful figure models ever to grace the pages of FLING or any other magazine. Her eyes seemed like jewels that glittered. That she had a whopping pair of pendulous breasts which flirted with perfection only seemed to strengthen her case. Joan Brinkman was the favorite model of America's favorite big tit magazine--FLING--and for that alone, she deserves a place on this list.
   
   
LINZI 
McKENZIE
 

In almost any other decade but the 1990's, Linzi Dawn McKenzie would be the undisputed big boob Queen. Linzi mania ran rampant in the mid to late 1990's, due in part to her awe-inspiring all-natural figure but owing as much to the relentless publicity her figure generated in the most mammary-obsessed of British tabloids. Even before she turned "legal", she was well publicized for her "considerable 34GG assets" (recently expanding to HH-cups due to a failed pregnancy), which SCORE magazine and its sister publication Voluptuous have since capitalized upon at ever turn (thank goodness!) Her fun, outgoing personality, delightful cockney accent and self assurance in front of the camera all combine to make her a "complete package" and huge favorite amongst big boob fans worldwide. Already a living legend at 21, time will tell, but it seems as though Linzi has the tools in place to become the greatest mammarian of all.

Drumrolls, please....THE Big Bust Model of the Millennium is...

   
   
CHLOE 
VEVRIER
I have to confess that I am a bit biased here, because I have been in love with Chloe since the first moment I cast my eyes upon her. Nonetheless, I am going to unabashedly proclaim her as the Big Bust Model of the Millennium because, among other things, she has the most extraordinary build of any woman, drawing, sketch, painting, cartoon, or computer morph I have ever seen.

Because she has beautiful doe eyes and a wistful smile that betray the fact that she is sincere and sweet and loving. From all I have seen and read and heard about Chloe she is in essence a sweet child in the body of a mythological goddess.

Because of her sculpted runner's calves, so muscular, yet so supple and graceful.

Because of her shyness.

Because of the fact that she has studied medicine and owned her own clinic.

Because of soft curves and the fact that she is NOT a "fitness babe" (so sue me, I love that jiggle).

Because of her sweet femininity.

Because when she walks, she sways like a WOMAN. (It seems blasphemous to say that she looks almost as good going as she does coming)

Because of her exotic German accent.

Because of THOSE breasts, chiseled by God, which are proof positive that God is not a woman.

Chloe Vevrier is a modern day Aphrodite, a Venus de Milo as conjured up by Russ Meyer.

A British friend of mine once remarked to me that it was only fitting that Germany gave us both Adolf Hitler and Chloe Vevrier in the same century. "It sort of evens things out", he said. Okay, so she's a looker. And further, she's universally beloved--revered even--by men. She unknowingly bewitches them into falling in love with her, and I can only imagine how many proposals of marriage she has turned down in her lifetime. Her intelligence, her charm, her beauty--she is the woman every man desires. She has the body of Jessica Rabbit and yet is the kind of girl you'd love to bring home to Mom. She has a sweet round face that says "kiss me" and eyes which are sincere and loving.

I am a nut about Anita Ekberg, but there is something intangible about Chloe that sets her apart from her peers in the adult entertainment industry, or, for that matter, in all of womankind. Chloe literally redefined the template for the big bust model during the 1990's. Here was a completely natural figure model who, size-wise, compared favorably with even the biggest of the artificially enhanced models of the "silly cone" decade. Her breasts were so huge, so full and round, so perfectly pendulous that even the greatest tit models of the past seem to pale in comparison. For all of that breast implant technology, no surgeon has ever been able to create a breast as beautiful as Chloe's. Chloe was simply built that way, and her very existence strengthens my belief that there must be a Higher Power running this crazy universe. A woman of extraterrestrial anatomical build and exquisite beauty, Chloe is truly one for the ages.
