3 Just Isn’t Enough for Hef

Only Hugh Hefner could juggle so many women in his life and not go fucking insane. Hugh Hefner tweeted tonight that he has added two more young hotties to his harem from 3 to five. The two new girls are Melissa Taylor and Anna Berglund, who join Crystal Harris and The Shannon Twins. All five girlfriends will be on the next season of The Girls Next Door. All 5 of his new girlfriends, much like his last three are blondes.

The Mansion Has Sold

The mansion has sold … no not the Playboy one, but close, it is the one next door. Last March the LA Times reported the house next door to Hef’s, which he happens to own was up for sale. The asking price at the time was almost $28 million.  Well tonight Hugh Hefner tweeted that the house has sold. Although no price was disclosed in his tweet, no doubt it went for a pretty penny, however I suspect not quite as much as he and his estranged wife Kimberly had wanted.

Dressed in a colorful Playboy shirt, white pants, a black sport coat and his signature captain’s hat, Hugh Hefner kicked off a day-long birthday party today at the Palms.


The Playboy magnate will turn 83 years old on Thursday.


The festivities got underway today at 2:30 p.m. as the original playboy made his way to the Palms Place pool where a cheerful Hef partied flanked by girlfriends Crystal Harris, 22, and 19-year-old twin sisters Karissa and Kristina Shannon.


Press and camera crews for The Girls Next Door greeted the birthday boy’s entourage as the group settled into seats on the patio near the pool.


Moments later, the original Girls Next Door, Bridget Marquardt, Kendra Wilkinson and Hef’s former No. 1 squeeze, Holly Madison, came by to say hello.


“I’ve good company. Young people keep me young,” Hefner said. “I get older, but they stay the same.”


Marquardt, Wilkinson and Madison lived with the Playboy icon in his iconic estate, the Playboy Mansion, for over five years before going their separate ways last year.


Now 35, 23 and 29, respectively, the trio has since been replaced by a younger trifecta of blondes.


Marquardt and Wilkinson admitted it was all pretty surreal.


“That used to be us!” Wilkinson remarked, motioning toward Hefner’s three new lady friends.


“You see it from the outside and it’s like, oh my God,” she laughed.


Marquardt agreed. “It’s such a unique situation,” she said.


Yet there was no animosity in the afternoon air as girlfriends past and present joined Hefner to pose for photographers.


Madison, who finished a month-long stint on Dancing With the Stars this week, said photographers are an essential part of any Playboy birthday celebration.


She had her fair share of party planning experience during her tenure as Hef’s No. 1. She said that three things are required for any Hef-related celebration: “Press, Jack and Coke and beautiful women.”



There was no shortage of any of those today at the Palms.



Hefner sipped glasses of Jack Daniels and Coke throughout the afternoon, as he fielded questions from a seemingly endless stream of media.



Meanwhile, a smattering of stunning ladies lingered and mingled nearby.



Former Playboy models Jennifer Pershing, Deanna Brooks, Tiffany Fallon, Hiromi Oshima, Kelly Carrington, Janine Habeck, Alison Waite, Ida Ljundqvist, Stacy Fuson and Patrice Hollis were among those seen enjoying the afternoon sun.



Wilkinson and Marquardt’s significant others, Hank Baskett and Nicholas Carpenter, also attended the party.



“We’re all great friends,” Wilkinson said. Her fiancé agreed and said it’s not awkward at all.



“It’s been very nice getting to know Hef. He’s just down to earth, family-oriented kind of guy,” the Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver said.



Baskett said he and Hefner have been friends since the minute they realized they shared not just a woman, but a favorite comic, too.



“It was one of those male bonding moments,” Baskett said. “We‘re both big Flash Gordon fans. … It was like a match made in heaven.”



Wilkinson said she views the collection of former and current boyfriends and girlfriends as “friends and family.”



In fact, Wilkinson and Baskett will tie the knot at the Playboy Mansion on June 27 and Hefner has agreed to walk Wilkinson down the aisle.



She said Saturday’s festivities were “kind of like a birthday party-slash-anniversary” for her and Hefner.



The two met at Hefner’s 78th birthday party five years ago, and Wilkinson said she knew exactly how to mark the occasion: with a card.



“That’s all he likes,” she said. “He likes cards with nice things written in them, and he likes pictures in frames, and he likes candy.”



She said her card carried a simple but heartfelt message.



“I wrote for both of us,” Wilkinson said as she and Baskett linked arms. “I said, ‘Thanks for being such a good friend to Hank and I, we love you so much and, P.S., I miss you’.”



This afternoon’s pool party was just the beginning of Hefner’s birthday extravaganza.



After catching some midday sun, he and his guests retreated indoors to prepare for the night ahead. Before they left, however, the birthday boy shared his plans.



“Once we finish the pool party we’ll be having dinner at N9NE, the restaurant,” he said. After that, the iconic playboy said the crew will move the party upstairs, where they will “spend some time at the Playboy Club and Moon.”



And how does Hugh Hefner end his night of birthday celebrations in Las Vegas?


Hefner said he plans to do it with “a little private gathering in my suite.”

Playboy Beauty Kicked off of Dancing With The Stars

It was just a few weeks ago that we learned Hugh Hefner helped his ex girlfriend get a coveted spot on the popular prime time TV show Dancing with the Stars but despite the support of her famous ex boyfriend, she couldn’t make it through to the end as tonight Holly Madison was eliminated from the competition.  But you know what, that’s okay because if you ask me, she was the hottest fucking chick that show has ever seen.

Here is the full story from Vegas Deluxe.

In the end, it wasn’t the men with the lowest scores who faced the Dancing With the Stars elimination.

Judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli and Len Goodman were cruel last night and put Steve-O and Steve Wozniak on the firing line with the lowest scores of the show. But viewers rallied to the two injured men and saved them from elimination this evening after President Barack Obama’s press conference!

Despite their injuries, both will be back next week for the Argentine tango or the lindy hop. Also safe were Julianne Hough and country singer boyfriend Chuck Wicks and The Bachelor’s Melissa Rycroft and pro partner Tony Dovolani.

Instead, in a shocking vote, viewers decided that Denise Richards and her Le Reve partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy should be one of the two duos to face the axe. And for Holly Madison, it became the moment she had dreaded.

In the story, Holly said, “Last week, I escaped the crucial first exit. It was scary because it wasn’t until the last minute they told us we were safe. I was really scared. Every week now, the bottom two will compete in the dance-off. No pressure there! My heart was pounding. That elimination is brutal. I never want to do the dance-offs!”

All day today, Holly and Dmitry rehearsed in case of the inevitable, and the judges noted the improvement and gave them 18 points out of 30. In the nail-biting final seconds, it was left to Denise and Maks — and, amazingly there was such a dramatic improvement, they scored 20 out of 30.

Vegas DeLuxe will have the full report from the dance floor tomorrow morning with a larger explanation of the competition, the voting and the final result — but for The Girls Next Door star and Playboy cover beauty Holly, it was, shockingly, the end of the line!

Updated —

I was told that despite Vegas DeLuxe reporting it being the “end of the line” for Holly Madison from The Girls Next Door, it was in fact Denise Richards removed from the show last night. The official show website says “Denise Richards has been booted from the ballroom! Eleven stars remain to try the Argentine Tango or the Lindy Hop.

From Iron Man to Playboy

When you are the world’s most famous playboy, it has to be hard to try and figure out who will play the role of you in your life’s movie. I mean who hasn’t thought about what celebrity they want to play them? Even Jenna Jameson has when she said she wanted Scarlett Johansson to play her. Although Scarlett Johansson said not gonna happen, it doesn’t mean one can’t dream.



So what if you are Hugh Hefner? Well the list of potential candidates to play Hugh Hefner was surprisingly short and when the Iron Man himself came up, Robert Downey Junior, High Hefner agreed … or so says a recent story in the Chicago Sun Times. Long story short, a biography is in the works for the life of Playboy Hugh Hefner.

It’s not a 100 percent done deal, but sources say Hefner has signed off on Downey to play him in the movie, with the working title “Playboy.”

He took a liking to the actor after seeing “Iron Man” and admiring his humor and skill in showing his vulnerability.


Chicago is expected to be used for the shooting of scenes focusing on the early years of Playboy magazine. A Chicago native, Hefner grew up in Galewood and launched Playboy here before moving the California.
