Miss June has some highly unusual beliefs. She's finally put her life back together and now, at 28, says, 'I'm ready to be happy again. 'Then Eric got sick.' He died of a rare form of cancer in 1991, and Carrie mourned for years. 'We lived it up, loving every minute together,' she says. For the next four years Carr was both a father figure and a lover to Carrie. In 1987 she met Eric Carr, drummer for Kiss. Next came a real-life rock-and-roll dream. Teenager Carrie took countless tours of Graceland, dreaming of Elvis, wishing she were Priscilla Presley.
Miss June combines her dad's logic with the artistic spirit of her mother, a painter, whom she followed to Memphis when her parents divorced. 'I was named after lab equipment,' she says. She was born in Buffalo, where her father was a research scientist, and is a living reminder of his spectrophotometer. In fact, Carrie's tale starts even earlier. It started when I was a groupie,' she says. But that's the only typical thing about Carrie Stevens, who has gone from Graceland to Hollywood - and from tragedy to triumph - while growing from bubbly teen to independent woman.
Like several other Playmates you've seen, Miss June is a promising young actress.
