When super-svelte Stefaney Lewis, 25, got the call from Playboy that she was chosen as the country's most beautiful bar babe, she felt like the luckiest girl in the world. "I am so flattered to be voted America's Sexiest Bartender for 2007," she told Playboy.com. But this full-time bartender and model has her head on straight about winning a cool 10 grand. "I try to save all my money," she said. "I'm not sure how I'll be spending it yet." Single and "picky" about dating, Stefaney also couldn't believe how much recognition she got from just being a finalist in the contest. "Regulars would come up to me at the bar congratulating me and tell me they voted for me," she said. "I was really surprised how many people recognized me." The owners and staff at the Blue Martini Lounge in West Palm Beach, where Stefaney's been working for four years, are equally excited about her new-found fame. "I'd love to go through what [2004 America's Sexiest Bartender winner] Kara Monaco went through," she said. After winning in 2004, Kara became Miss June 2005 and then Playmate of the Year 2006. "Of course I'd love to be a Centerfold," Stefaney said, "but that's entirely up to Playboy." If her steamy photo shoot at Chicago's ultra-hot Reserve nightclub is any hint of what's to come, she could already be well on her way.
