KARI NAUTIQUE

THE HEARTBREAKING CHRIS RIFKIN PICTORIAL

- Alex Watkins

Multi-time FHM cover model Kari Nautique is one of the most respected and well-known supermodels in the entire world. The gorgeous blonde bombshell from the Sunshine State of Florida is always smiling, even on days where her presence is required on set for 18 or more hours. “Kari Nautique is a ray of light on even the darkest of days,” noted fellow supermodel Wendi April. “Her smile permeates the room, the atmosphere, the set, and beams across the entire modeling industry. Kari is an absolute force of nature!”

So it is with a heavy heart that we here at FHM break the terrible news that noted photographer Chris Rifkin, well known as “one of the really good guys” in the business, passed away from Pancreatic Cancer shortly before this magazine went to press. The photographs that appear in this article are a result of Chris and Kari’s collaboration during an exclusive photoshoot on a $20,000,000 USD estate in Scottsdale, Arizona as part of the legendary Paul Heyman’s #HustleBootyTempTats supermodel brand.

As many of you know, we here at FHM have previously reported that Kari, the very first #HustleBootyTempTats supermodel, has been at the forefront of Heyman’s global of the brand’s phenomenon. “The #HustleBootyTempTats supermodel brand has certainly expanded exponentially from its humble roots as a hysterical conversation between Playboy’s sexiest digital superstar and the disruptor of the sports entertainment industry,” we reported in a cover story last year.
