Playboy.com: You're a great-looking, tall woman who wears a military uniform on your show. How do you find men reacting to this?
Catherine Bell: Well, with guys in a uniform the reaction is more automatic. Men seem to love me in a uniform but are sometimes surprised what I look like out of the uniform, too. Sometimes when fans of the show see me looking sexy, they are like, "Wow, Catherine, I knew you were cute...but, wow!" I like that.
PB: Kinda like the old, sexy librarian, bait-and-switch, eh?
CB: Yes. I like to be sexy and show people I'm sexy. Whenever I go on talk shows or do photo shoots I like to dress really sexy because, well, I wear a uniform most of the time. It's good to be feminine and sexy.
PB: Well, you did show it all as a nude body double and looked quite good.

THE BASICS
WHO IS SHE?:
As Lt. Col. Sarah "Mac" MacKenzie on CBS' hit show JAG, London-born Catherine has been getting a lot of attention for her fiery sex appeal, gorgeous body and her ability to hang with the boys.
WHAT HAS SHE DONE?:
After conquering the model world with numerous print and TV commercial campaigns, Catherine was nabbed to be Isabella Rossellini's nude body double in the movie Death Becomes Her. After scoring guest spots on Friends, Dream On and Hercules, she was cast on JAG and became an instant fan favorite as her presence sent the ratings skyward.
WHY DO WE CARE?:
Catherine is a gorgeous woman who looks great in her uniform and, well, out of it, too. She likes to shoot guns, skydive, kickbox and ride motorcycles. She wants to become a female action hero in the future -- and she probably will. In fact, she'd be perfect for the rumored Terminator 3, don't you think? (Are you reading this, Arnold?)
