Career

Modeling

Imogen Bailey has also posed nude for Black+White magazine, her personal belief about nudity being expressed by the following words of hers: "I believe that the human form is a wonderful creation. Any nudity that I have chosen to do has always been beautiful and tasteful."^{cite this quote}

She also appeared as a weekly columnist in Australian Magazine, Zoo Weekly (from the publishers of FHM), giving advice to guys about their girlfriends while wearing her bikini.

Television

Bailey has competed in several reality shows including Celebrity Big Brother, Skating on Thin Ice and Celebrity Survivor, which was set in Vanuatu. Bailey placed third on the show which was aired during 2006. In 2005 she appeared in the comic book adaptation of Man-Thing, which was shot in Australia and portrayed a deaf character, Ariel, in the movie 7th Hunt.

More notably however, Imogen Bailey's 56 episode stint portraying Nicola West - one of Neighbour's most controversial characters of 2008 - made her a more common name within the young female audience in Australia. Her role of Miranda Parker's younger sister created controversy as her character got involved in many controversial storylines such as the infamous incestual relationship with her adoptive nephew, Riley.

Music

Bailey's vocals were featured on the 2003 single "If U Want Me" by dance musician Michael Woods. The single made it to number 1 on the UK dance charts.

There is some conjecture as to Bailey's age. Until recently her website listed her birth year as 1977. She now claims to have been born in 1983. This might create problems for Inside Sport, the September 2000 edition of which carried nude photos of Bailey on the cover as well as the pages inside. Additionally, there are several interviews, forums, fansites and IMDB, which all list her age as 31

Personal life

Bailey recently revealed her traumatic ordeal over her battle with anorexia nervosa in an interview with Now magazine:

“

I went through a minor, but still not very good, anorexic stage and actually got down to less than 40 kg2

”

Bailey later went for therapy and took up meditation after her family and friends expressed concerns about her health.

Animal rights

Bailey is outspoken on the subject of Animal Rights and has lent her likeness to many PETA campaigns. She also once appeared caged in a make-shift battery hen enclosure as part of a campaign for the Human Battery Cage. The rights to sit in the cage with Bailey and Lindsay McDougall (guitarist for punk band Frenzal Rhomb), were auctioned off on eBay by Animal Liberation NSW. Imogen has also just launched a new project, http://www.imforanimals.com, which focuses on drawing attention to the abuse and cruelty towards animals.
