What would be the notability there? Merely entering (and even
winning) a wet T-shirt competition doesn't seem to be sufficient
notability to justify an article, since there are probably thousands
of girls in a similar situation. Even if she makes it onto one of
the "Girls Gone Wild" films, it's probably not sufficient notability
unless she starts a major career doing such things. If she becomes a
major "pinup queen" with a large fan following, however, then that
*would* make her notable even if she later becomes a very private
person; see [[Bettie Page]].
