NEW YORK — Kelly Shibari has announced that she is embarking on a New York City media tour this week.
The first-ever plus size model featured in Penthouse Magazine will be featured in two documentary shoots, as well as appearing on a variety of media interviews.
“I’m looking forward to spending a week back in New York,” Shibari said. “And right before the holidays, too — this really is the prettiest time of year in the City.
"I’m thrilled to promote my Penthouse pictorial — and to be a part of not just one, but two documentaries is so humbling," she added. "It’s going to be a great week!”
Shibari will be in a multi-page pictorial for the magazine's Pop Shots project, with circus-themed images shot by photographer Tommy O and art directed by Jim Rose. The January 2016 issue hits stands nationwide Dec. 22.
