The raunchy Ruby Rose shoot for FHM has shattered all the rules for the lads' mag, which will have its first lesbian on the cover.

The tattooed television star has spoken exclusively about why she finally succumbed on her stance not to appear in a men's mag. And it's perfect timing, with the hot DJ now single and ready to mingle.

"I was dating someone - I ended that a couple of days ago because it wasn't working out for me," Rose says of her recent squeeze. "She wasn't the kind of person I thought she was, let's leave it. The clucky Melbourne girl, who admits she wouldn't be surprised if she had a baby in the next few years, also reveals she still has feelings for her former fiancee, supermodel Catherine McNeil.

"I've got Catherine, my ex, back in town and we're going to meet up and work on our friendship," Rose says.

She says she has been asked for years to pose for a men's mag.

"I've said no to every men's mag to do any shoot because it didn't feel right at the time and I didn't really want to do it. But then I shot with photographer Carlotta [Moye] and both times the pics have been extraordinary and I thought it would be fun."

Rose also feels strongly that there is an undiscovered female readership of the blokey mag. "Growing up, when I was younger, if I got a copy of FHM I'd be rapt."

And as for the girl with whom she poses so intimately in the shoot? Rose says it was Moye's choice - the wife of Ksubi chief George Gurrow, Franziska.

"I didn't want a friend to do it as the rumours would start and I didn't want it to be a tall, blonde big-boobed girl. I wanted a model model and she was awesome; she kept laughing, saying, 'George is going to kill me - I can't believe we are doing this."' Source: http://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle
