DON’T BLAME THE BUNNIES: HORRIBLE WRITING KILLED “THE PLAYBOY CLUB”

It’s a shame that The Playboy Club series was such a disappointment and only lasted three episodes. The Chicago based show set in the 60’s, when Rush Street was hot, LOOKED glossy and great, but the writing was pathetic. A story about the bunnies and their lives at that time would have been far more interesting than the trumped up gangster plot that had nothing to do with the club. A smart female writer would have talked to a slew of former bunnies and gotten all their stories together. These girls had interesting lives and a lot to tell. In those days the prettiest girls in Chicago became stewardesses or Playboy bunnies. It could have been a really fun series.

Crystal Harris Holly Madison Hugh Hefner Playboy The Girls Next Door Weddings

HOLLY MADISON TO JILTED HUGH HEFNER: “I TOLD YOU SO”

Meanwhile, Hugh Hefner’s former longtime girlfriend Holly Madison is in Las Vegas promoting her book “The Showgirl Next Door: Holly Madison’s Las Vegas,” and she drew quite a crowd at the Paris hotel. You’ll recall Holly left Hef after years of togetherness because he reused to marry HER or pursue having a baby together. Holly was shocked when Hef promptly took up with Crystal Harris and they quickly got engaged. She was suspicious of Crystal’s motivations and it turns out Crystal lived up to expectations by dumping Hef days before the wedding.

Charlie Sheen Jay Mohr Law & Order Nikki Cox Playboy

JAY MOHR IS UNLIKELY CHOICE TO PLAY CHARLIE SHEEN BASED CHARACTER

“Law & Order: Criminal Intent” is jumping on the Charlie Sheen bandwagon and they’re featuring – of all people- comic Jay Cox Mohr (yes, he took his wife’s last name.) To avoid Charlie’s wrath, they’re making the character an incredibly successful and popular rockstar designer who makes tons of money and parties like there’s no tomorrow with few consequences. According to Deadline/Hollywood the plot includes a murder at a party full of cocaine and pornstars. Jay is an odd choice for two reasons: he looks more like a midwestern businessman than a playboy, and he lacks any fashion edge, to put it mildly. But he DID marry Playboy model Nikki Cox, so that gives him a little credibility.

Dancing With the Stars Kendra Wilkinson Kirstie Alley Playboy Scientology

KENDRA WILKINSON IS DETERMINED TO TROUNCE KIRSTIE ALLEY

No one was more shocked than Kendra Wilkinson when her performance on “Dancing with the Stars” turned out to be lukewarm. She was the odds-on FAVORITE at the start of this season due to her age, looks, and athletic ability. When 60 year old Kirstie Alley outscored the Playboy model, everyone was surprised. Competitive Kendra said she was “nervous” and now she’s rehearsing like a mad woman, determined to show her stuff. This will be quite a competition because Kendra has all the Playmates and Playboy associates voting for her, while Kirstie has all the Scientologists voting for her. We’re guessing that being a Scientologist will pay off for Kirstie.

Anna Nicole Smith Crystal Harris Engaged Hugh Hefner Playboy The Girls Next Door

HUGH HEFNER, 84 AND CRYSTAL HARRIS, 24, ARE ENGAGED. SO WHAT?

It’s funny how people react to the news that Hugh Hefner, 84, just got engaged to his 24 year old Playmate girlfriend Crystal Harris. Some people laugh, some are horrified, and others are outraged. Hello – we’ve seen it all before with Anna Nicole Smith and her 89 year old billionaire in a wheelchair, J Howard Marshall. In fact, this is a fairly common situation when it comes to lonely billionaires and aspiring blondes. Whether Hef will really go on with a wedding remains to be seen, but that ring bought him the attentive company of Crystal Harris for the time being. Hef just wants to have fun and enjoy his money in his declining years. And why shouldn’t he? He worked for it. Crystal Harris knows she will never have to worry about money again. Two happy people. What’s the big deal?

Halle Berry New Couples Olivier Martinez Paris Playboy Salma Hayek

HALLE BERRY AND HER CASANOVA, OLIVIER MARTINEZ

Halle Berry is asking for trouble. She’s pictured here walking around Paris looking awfully happy, with her “Dark Tide” costar Olivier Martinez, his dog and her friend Salma Hayek and her daughter. Halle and Olivier finished their movie, Halle flew back to LA for a week and then returned to Paris to see Olivier. Trouble is, the charming Martinez is something of a playboy and has romanced a number of famous women (including Kylie Minogue, Angelina Jolie, Mira Sorvino, and models Elsa Pataky and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.) Odds are not in Halle’s favor for a long term relationship, so hopefully she’s keeping that in mind.

Kendra Wilkinson Playboy The Girls Next Door Vivid Entertainment

KENDRA WILKINSON: STILL PRETENDING SHE’S UPSET BY SEX VIDEO RELEASE

How dumb does “Girls next Door” star Kendra Wilkinson think we all are? She just did an interview with Ryan Seacrest at “E!” in which she boo hooed that she was “extremely embarrassed” that the sex video she did as a teenager was released by Vivid Entertainment. She didn’t acknowledge the fact that SHE has been trying to negotiate a deal to release the video for several years. Finally, her male partner in the video sold it successfully and he’s sharing the profits with her. According to RadarOnline, Vivid says her video provided their “biggest sales day in history.” Most significant is the fact that Kendra already got her first check for the video – $680,000. Certainly that eases a lot of her “pain.”

Divorce Hugh Hefner Kimberley Conrad Playboy

KIMBERLEY CONRAD HEFNER SAYS GOODBYE TO PLAYBOY PERKS

Another reminder that the world of Playboy isn’t what it used to be. Hugh Hefner is finally in the process of divorcing his wife Kimberley Conrad (they’ve been separated for ten years.) It all started when Hugh gave Kimberly nine months to move out of the mansion next door to his so he could sell it. She sued him for half the price of the house and he filed for divorce. He’s been supporting the former Playmate in high style all these years but that’s apparently over. Kimberley was seen flying alone in COACH class on Southwest Airlines from Reno to LAX, where she had to collect and schlep her own luggage. No more private jets or bodyguards. She did not look happy- or glamorous- according to another passenger, she kept a knit cap pulled down and wore a bulky coat. Incidentally, her two sons with Hef, Marston and Cooper, are both in college and Hef continues to support them. (Above, Kimberley was photographed with Quincy Jones)

Hugh Hefner Party Playboy The Girls Next Door

THE PLAYBOY MANSION ISN’T WHAT IT USED TO BE

In 1972, Playboy had it’s highest circulation EVER – 7 million. It’s been downhill since then, (for MOST magazines) and Playboy is up for sale for 300 million. Hugh Hefner’s life hasn’t changed a lot – his previous three blonde “Girls Next Door” have been replaced by younger girls. (Above, Hef and his main girlfriend Crystal Harris plus the mischievous Shannon twins.) But the party attitude HAS evolved. Nowadays the mansion is more of a venue – rented out for events and parties. And there have been cutbacks on the weekly “movie night” – there is no longer a free buffet dinner for the fifty or sixty guests! What will all those hungry moochers DO?
