Gail Porter (born 23 March 1971 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish television presenter, television personality, former model and actress. In the 1990s she became known for photos in men's magazines such as ''FHM'', including one nude which was projected on to the Houses of Parliament. She moved into television, becoming a presenter on British TV. Her modelling was affected by alopecia, which can sometimes result in an almost total loss of her hair. == Life and career == Porter attended Portobello High School. She studied for a BTEC HND in media production at West Herts College.〔 〕 After making an unsuccessful bid to join the presentation team of the BBC children's show ''Blue Peter'', she has presented family-friendly television programmes, or ones aimed at children.

In the late 1990s she began to pose for magazines such as ''FHM''. A picture of her naked from behind was projected on the Houses of Parliament in 1999. ''FHM'' and the guerrilla marketing company, Cunning Communications, and projectionist-artist Malcolm Litson and Jason Bridges, accompanied it with a message to vote for her in the ''FHM'' Sexiest Women Poll. In her autobiography, Porter says she did not know about the stunt until it was reported the following day. In 2001, Porter took part in the reality television show ''Celebrity Blind Man's Bluff'' and in 2003, she was on Channel 4's ''The Games'', although injury truncated her participation.
