The final tally is in and it’s official: Mercedes Terrell has landed the cover of our 2014 Screaming O Calendar, and it’s all because of YOU!

This year we did something a little different and put the fans in charge of choosing our coveted cover girl, and one professional poseur in particular swept the stage in just one short week of extreme online voting.

Ms. Mercedes not only will grace the cover of our upcoming sexy swimsuit calendar, but she also will receive a cool $1,000 cash (in the form of one of those fun giant checks) to help celebrate this momentous occasion. And she has her loyal fans to thank for it!

This year we brought the model mayhem to a water studio in the middle of the desert and got hot and bothered (literally, it was 99 degrees out) as photographers snapped away. The theme was simple – teeny tiny bikinis in our signature red and white – and the ladies splished and splashed under the sun while the rest of us discreetly practiced our breast stroke.

And just a couple of months from now you can see the fruits of our swimsuit-inspired labor for yourself! Stay tuned for the official release of our 2014 Screaming O Calendar and to hear which lucky voter was randomly selected to take home $200 of Screaming O swag!
