The Keeley Hazell Collection

Keeley Hazell is often cited as the "ultimate" face of the mid-2000s glamour boom. Her rise was meteoric after winning The Sun’s "Search for a Babe" contest in 2004, and she quickly became a dominant force on the newsstands. For many, Keeley represented the bridge between the traditional Page 3 look and the high-gloss production of modern lifestyle magazines.

A Keeley Hazell collection is a journey through the peak of the British "lad’s mag" era. Her issues of Nuts, Zoo, FHM, and Loaded are legendary, often breaking sales records. In fact, her 2006 FHM cover was one of the magazine’s best-selling issues of all time, proving her massive appeal across the UK and internationally.

Key highlights of a Keeley Hazell collection include:

  • The Record-Breaking FHM Covers: Keeley was a frequent top contender in the FHM 100 Sexiest Women polls, and her cover stories from 2006 and 2007 are essential "Golden Era" collectibles.

  • The Nuts & Zoo "Poster Issues": Known for her stunning photoshoots, Keeley was a staple of the weekly mags. Issues that include the original pull-out posters are particularly high in value for collectors.

  • The "L.A. Transition": Rare US editions of magazines like Maxim from when she moved to Hollywood to pursue acting, showing her evolution into an international star.

  • Special "Best Of" Editions: Dedicated one-off magazines that compiled her greatest shoots, often released as high-quality glossies by the Nuts and Zoo editorial teams.

Keeley Hazell remains a definitive "Cover Star," capturing a specific moment in British media history when glamour models were the biggest celebrities in the country.
