Early career
Melinda Messenger first came to prominence in the United Kingdom after a poster advertising campaign for Glevum Windows featuring Melinda was banned by the UK's Advertising Standards Authority for being too sexually suggestive. This very quickly led to a very successful glamour modelling career for Melinda, beginning with a photo-shoot for the Daily Star newspaper on January 28, 1997, followed by a stint at The Sun's Page Three, quickly becoming one of their most recognisable Page 3 girls. Soon afterwards, she began her TV career.
