Too bad to see this one go; Rhonda was kinda easy on the eyes, depending on what you like. Or maybe it's just that if you put any reasonably attractive woman in lingerie with the strap falling off the shoulder, she'll look kinda alluring. It's sort of similar to how bulk candy vending machines often are pretty ugly when empty (see the listings at, e.g., http://www.ebay.com/bhp/bulk-vending-machines), but no one notices because they're usually seen with candy inside. You could put a bunch of colorful, yummy-looking candy in the back of a garbage truck and it would look appealing.

It's all about context. There used to be a page over at Elena's Models about this phenomenon. A woman can post a dating profile in which she's frowning and dressed very conservatively (e.g. in a loose-fitting turtleneck sweater and baggy pants) and get almost no response; then if she posts a pic in which she is happily frolicking at the beach in a bikini, or maybe has just stepped out of the shower and only has a towel wrapped around her, she will get tons of responses.
