The 'Hollyoaks' actress - who plays Theresa McQueen in the Channel 4 soap - has insisted what made her feel "sexy" about the scantily-clad shoots was the "confidence" they gave her.
She said: "I miss the lads’ mags shoots. It was great money back then! I loved doing them. It was empowering as well.
"But it wasn’t all the posing. It was the confidence that was important.
"That’s what makes you sexy. I feel very grateful that I got to do all the lads’ mags.
"But I never see myself as sexy. I just think, ‘Oh, that’s a picture of me’."
Jorgie admitted two years ago she couldn't "see babies in [her] future", but since meeting her businessman boyfriend Ollie Piotrowski, she could see him being "the father of [her] children" one day.
She told The Sun newspaper's Fab Daily: "I thought I would never fall in love with a man so much and also I never thought I’d want them to be there.
"I always thought because my dad had never been there, maybe that’s what happens.
"If I had children, would the man want to be there for the children?
"Having met Ollie and seen what he’s like with his son, it was like, 'Wow! This is the biggest eye-opener ever.' "
In March, the 33-year-old star admitted she had "not looked back" since hooking up with Ollie last year, after the pair previously dated six years beforehand.
Speaking about their reunion, Jorgie said: "Instantly I was like, 'Wow! You're really fit.'
"It was as if all those years of not seeing each other was necessary.
"I realised, 'I don't want to date anyone else ever again.'
"We both didn't believe in those fairy tale kinds of situations, but I knew I didn't want to date any other man.
"Since then we've not looked back and we're looking at houses to move in together."
