Did anyone else hear that Jenna Jameson sold her "Club Jenna" website and movie production company to Playboy? Does this mean that Playboy will be changing their format to be more hardcore? Holly, watch out. I see a new job in your future.

It's been confirmed in other sources (for instance, check out the E! True Hollywood Story on Hef) that when Hef has starts recruiting a harem he picks one of them to be the "main squeeze" or "den mother" of the group (Actually that's not true. Holly herself was "picked" by former Head Slut, Tina Jordan, like how crazy is THAT?) However to answer the previous question, no, Holly is in fact NOT a "real girlfriend." Not by a long shot.

Alas, there are no new ones in the pipeline that I can tell from checking on wireimage every now and then. I think Hef is loath to tamper with his current lineup since it brought in a bit of attention/ratings.

Of course there are no new chickies in the pipeline. Playboy is broke.

"However to answer the previous question, no, Holly is in fact NOT a "real girlfriend." Not by a long shot."

Why do you say this? I thought she was as much a "real" girlfriend as any of the other 20 he's had in the last ten years. Do you mean, like Kimberly? That he's never going to marry Holly? (which is a given)

So I just saw the episode where they all go to Chicago to see Hef's home and whatnot. In the restaurant they go to, there's a group of girls sitting near them who Hef flirts with. In response to this, Holly says, "I don't get jealous. I was raised in a cloning lab to be the perfect woman for Hef. The only problem is that my IQ is probably a little higher than he would like." Dear. God. I sincerely hope she was being sarcastic. If she was, it could actually be a funny comment. If not...wow. Just...wow.

I just saw the NY/Chicago episode last night too. My first impression was "Poor old Hef."
He looked so old toddling around the Chicago suburbs reminiscing on his childhood days.
I also didn't understand why they flew out of NY so fast to go to Chicago. I mean, the way it was edited, they went to NY, stayed what? One night if that, then went to dinner then flew right to Chicago.

Hef seems like kind of a recluse if he won't even stay away from the mansion for more than one or two days. Weird...

Also, the group of girls flirting with Hef seemed way too convenient. I suspect it was some sort of a plant.

If you match his relatipnship with Head Slut Holly with his previous relationships (Kimberly, Barbi, etc.) there really is no comparison. Hef had genuine relationships with them (well, as much as a sleaze like Hef COULD have an actual relationship with any woman.) That's why Holly hates them so much: because they had something that she and her gaggle of hos will NEVER have. Just to drive to point home, it must be reminded that Holly only became "alpha skank" because she was chosen by the previous Bimbo-in-Charge. Notice that Hef (apprently) had nothing to do with the selection. She's sloppy seconds doing a fill-in job after the woman he REALLY wanted decided to leave the nest. Not to mention that I've never really seen Hef show any particular favoritism toward Holly, even though Holly has made it her persoanl mission to be Hef's cheerleader so there seems to be an imbalance in the relationship.

I also saw the Chi-town/Big Apple episodes for the first time, and I was disapointed. First of all, all the girls were complaining about how the women of The View were mean to them, but of course, we don't even get to see a clip to see what they are talking about. I know that the View episode already aired, but this feels like one of those comic book crossovers where they expect you to read issues of books you usually avoid just to see what happens next. God! (Also, why do these bimbos act so surprised that a show like The View wouldn't be fond of their arrangement? Why did they even go on The View in the first place? Is the demographic overlap of Playboy readership, and Joy Behar fans really that large?) I also found it amusing when the girls were wishing that they could have seen more of New York. Yeah, well, tough, bitch, you're on the clock. (Of course, given that they only spent one day in Vegas, I wonder if this is a contentious point between the tramps and Hef?)

I think the view doesn't allow clips to be shown. At least they didn't on the Kathy Griffin reality show.

He did marry Kimberly, they are still legally married in fact. So based on that, no he aint never gonna marry Holly! I think in Hef's mind (as with alot of people) he doesn't need a marriage ceremony to feel he can have with Holly what he had with Kimberly being legally married to her.

But like somone said, Holly was handpicked by Tina to take over since she was already apart of the group. Hef is just winging it with her it seems. And you can tell by the way Holly addresses the situation that she is comfortable enough to stay for the outward stability the arrangement gives her: A steady paycheck, room and board, parties in a nice house, etc...

Long time lurker and first time poster. Just saw this on another blog. It's a link to a proposal for a book about life inside the mansion by a former girlfriend. Fascinating. That is, if any of this can really be considered fascinating.

Here's the link: http://www.hollywoodinterrupted.com/archiv...rom_ebner.phtml

I'm confused - is they or ain't Playboy broke?

Did y'all see the rumblings that Ashlee Simpson was offered 4 million to do Playboy? TMZ.com basically said that they can't believe she was offered that much, but it almost makes me wonder how much a celebrity gets offered to do Playboy. With the recent news of Jenna selling her empire to Playboy, I'm confused at how dire Playboy's financial situation is. Did they buy Jenna's rights as one last shot to making money.

I'm with everyone else thinking that Playboy really is broke due to the competition getting so hardcore, so I don't believe they really would've paid that much. I almost think they ask a celeb who they know wouldn't do it and tack on a ridiculous offer just for publicity. A lot like how this show is just a publicity stunt.

I think this was just yet another of Pimp Daddy Joe's pr stunts to try and boost cd sales!

I think Kendra is the stupidest person I have ever seen on TV. Its like you cant even have a conversation with her about colors (I like red, do you like red?). Dumb as dishwater.

Also, I think its wierd that Kendra basically seems sex starved. She is always shaking her ass like she is in her own private rap video. She is a stupid creepy chick.

Aww, I like Kendra. She's dumb as hell, but likeable. She reminds me of the kind of puppy where you can pretend to throw a stick over its head and it'll go crazy running around looking for it, and when it finally realizes that you never actually threw the stick, it'll just come back and wait excitedly for you to "throw" it again.

I wouldn't be surprised if she IS sex-starved. My guess is that she's far and away Hef's third choice -- if you watch the show, you'll see that he's very affectionate with Holly and occasionally with Bridget, but I don't know if I've ever even seen him touch Kendra. And even if she's getting any, it's from the girls or Hef, which I imagine would not be particularly satisfying.

Kendra just strikes me as someone who never paid any attention to anything. I mean, at 20 years old, who doesn't know what the Mile High Club is? At least know what it means. Strangely enough, I find that the people who are like this are usually people who weren't allowed to watch television growing up. You learn a lot from TV.

Kendra seems like a sweet girl, and she is my favorite out of the three. She is extremely ditzy but I believe she plays it up for the cameras (I hope, at least). I mean she is a 20 year old girl living in a mansion surrounded by luxury. Her face and body are her ticket so she doens't necessarily have to be smart.

The NEW SEASON of THE GIRLS NEXT DOOR starts SUNDAY, JULY 30, 2006.

I wonder if she's smart enough to know that her ticket is only good for another 5-8 years...tops. Older stupid women aren't nearly as "adorable" as younger stupid women (Exhibit A: Bridgette).

I met Kendra in Las Vegas. I thought I heard someone say it was her birthday. What an idiot! I don't think I could stand her for more then 2 minutes

What did Kendra have to say? lol

she was pretty bitchy to me, and came across stupider then on tv. I dont remember what she said, it wasn't worthy of remembering!

You mean Hef let her out? Last year she had her family at the mansion for a cheap-ass party. What about the curfew? Were the other girls there?

BTW, there is a girl on the Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency show, nicknamed Fargo, who would be a perfect replacement once Hef kicks one of the current ho's to the curb. I thought about this show immediately when she was on (Janie hates her).

Wait, they get paid for being his girlfriend? Like a taxable income? That is pretty ridiculous. Do they get paid differently based on their order? I wonder how much more Holly makes than Kendra? After reading some of this stuff about Holly and Hef, I feel a little bad for her. She seems much more invested in her Baby Puffin than he is in her. I hope she doesn't really believe what she says when she says that she hopes to have children with Hef. Oh god, why do I care so much about these people's lives. I really shouldn't. Help me!

I didn't see any of the other girlfriends. Just Kendra and a bunch of gang banging looking people. Up close she looks way older then 20-21! She has deep crows feet around her eyes. Either she is 30 and lying about her age, or she has been rode hard and put up dripping wet. I had a small girl crush on her before I met her, I could have lived with her being stupid, but I was shocked at how aged she looks off camera. And get this, the girl had grillz in her mouth. (shaking head)

These women are just losers! What are they really known for? Letting some 80 year old screw them? What are they going to do when Hef dies? Most men wouldn't want to touch that rotten stuff! Hugh has to be just crawling with desease. He screwed everyone and their mommy from the 60's on! Both Bridget and Kendra's families should be ashamed of themselves! How can you support your daughter being a high paid whore? Of all the girls Hef could have, why these? The only one that really looks decent is Holly, but she is so jaded. Bridget is overweight and Kendra looks old.
What we really need is a reality show on when they are kicked out of the mansion. That I would watch!

she is not overweight....she has meat on her bones....but she is not overweight

I agree Bridgette is definitely not overweight. She may not be the stick figure most of this girls in 'hollywood' and/or playboy are but she is most definitely not overweight.

Bridgette may not be overweight but man, she has to be older than early 30s. She doesn't look bad for a woman in her early 40's. At least she doesn't have the horrible white hair like the other two. It makes them both of them look older.

I've often wondered why Hef has chosen these women to be his "girlfriends", non of them are spetacular look wise and the bleach blonde hair is just not attractive.

But, out of all three of them, it's Kendra I wonder the most about, Hef seems to barely glance her way. Holly just sucks up to him (which makes me laugh), she doesn't seem extremely intelligent, but it seems like she "tries" to be in the know about things. Bridgette, well, I have no idea what to think about her yet.

I can see why Hef chose Holly - she is beautiful. She has a nice body and a pretty face. Bridgette and Kendra are just average, imo.

So I was watching the repeat tonight where the girls make cookies for the military, and I'm positive that right after Hef took a bite of one, there was the sound effect of a toilet flushing. Wha??? I laughed my ass off, but I swear that wasn't there the first time around.

Also I think they've inserted Kendra's laugh in a few more spots, and there was a boob cookie scene that I don't remember. Are they jazzing up the reruns to keep it interesting? Oh how excited I am for some NEW sluttiness and stupidity!

I watched first run, and all of those things were there,I think-but everytime I watch a rerun, I catch more. And as for Bridget being overweight,if you go by her measurement on the official Playboy website, I believe she is a two? Not overweight by anyones standards. I think Holly and Kendra are closer to a double zero like Eva Longoria,which would make even a two seem large by comparison. I am not postive on all of this, but it has been posted either here or on the official E boards.

You know, I've been lurking in this thread a long time, laughing at the snark, but never actually watching the show.

But then....

I got sick! All-weekend-long sick. And I ran out of normal TV, watched everything on my Ti-Faux, and used up anything watchable on OnDemand. But then....

I found approximately 8 episodes of this very show OnDemand! "What the hell, " I muttered, and settled in with my soup and blankie and various clear-liquid beverages....

I watched. Every. Single. Episode! Damn it! Now I'm as hooked as you people.

*sniffles* I hate you guys. (well, no, not really, but why'd you all have to be so friggin' funny?! I might've gone my whole life without watching this show!)

Now I understand why everyone hates Bridgette's room! Having not seen it previously, I took some umbrage to all the anti-pink remarks (it being my favorite color too). But now that I've borne witness...damn. That's all I can say. Gawd damn, to be more precise. I do love Gizzy (poor cat looks like it wants to kill that woman), and Wednesday is adorable. I like Bridgette's personality best. Still got irritated over her weeping about being left out of the grotto shots for the magazine.

I think Holly's the prettiest, but I want to strap her down and force some lowlights onto that....that hay she calls hair! But I did think she looked stunning in that dress and big floppy hat she wore to Vegas.

Kendra's laugh makes me want to eat shards of broken glass. I hate it. Hate it with unnatural intensity. And when she sprayed that poor guy with whipped cream, I wanted to shove her ass in a corner for a time-out. What is wrong with her? She seems like she might be special...in that short-bus kind of way.

And Hef...poor old Hef. I didn't think I'd feel pity for the man, but I do. He just wants to eat ice cream in bed and watch TV in his jammies. I bet half the time he just turns down the hearing aids and is blissfully unaware of the girls' shrieks and squeals.

HAHHAHAHAHA I saw the preview for the new season, and where Bridget is popping outta the cake at Hef's b-day!!!


*DEAD*


soooooo funny! I can't wait!

Word. Maybe she even fell under the bus at some point, too.

I can't imagine anyone being excited that Bridgette is jumping out of a cake -- unless it is at a nursing home.

Pony-tails and an all pepto-pink decor should only be allowed if a) there is only one digit in your age, or b) you have been cast in a movie called Sorority Girls' Backdoor Panty Party VII .

Bridget probably HAS!

Check out cityrag today for a lovely shot of Kendra with (of all people) Urkel! Photo and story just below a side by side comparison of Paris Hilton and Sasquatch. Kendra's sporting some "way too old to be attempting that look" pigtails. Blech!

Ok so I tried to convince myself that I wouldnt post and therefore no one would know my nasty little secret - I watched this show!
Alas, you snarkers are making me want to get my own snark on.

Firstly I'll cosign everyone who said how disgusting and amoral this show is. Germaine Greer and Gloria Steinem would be horrified.
That said I cant stand Kendra, the laugh, the blondeness of her hair. She's like a Malibu Barbie that was left out in the sun too long and if she really is 20 she's way too young to be spending her life with the cryptkeeper.

Bridget is the cutest for me. I instantly adored and loathed her. The "lifelong" dream to be in PB, the baby voice, consistent smiling and bows and fairies and ice cream and garden gnomes....sheesh, what is she 12 in a adult body?! Still the pickings are slim and she seems very sweet to me. I just hope she makes use of those degrees and gets herself away from the Hef.

Holly. Two words. De. Lusional. Yeah Holly I really believe Hef is your soul mate. The bleached blonde look doesnt do it for me either and something about Holly's eyes (too far apart?) puts me off her. Plus her
territorial attitude is laughable. Bridget and Kendra dont want Hef's wrinkly ass! You can see it in the squicky kisses and the relief on their faces when Holly's sponging him down or doing whatever in their bedroom.

MBlase, ITA with you on Bridgett. Every time I watch a few minutes of this show (I've never seen a full episode), I'm like, "How old are you?"

Holly is not beautiful IMO. Ok. Just ok.

Call me crazy but I like Kendra, stupid laugh in all. I really have no idea why. Maybe I feel sorry for her. Yes, she is too young for this. Hell all of them are too young for this. I do hate her hair. I would totally strap her down and shave it all off. And her boobs are just wrong.

I'm all for still getting it on when you get older and May-December romances but (1) I don't want to know about it and (2) May 1929 and December 1975 is a little much.

These girls make me sick. What really makes me laugh isn't the show, but what will become of these skanks once Hugh kicks the bucket! They are nothing, and should consider leaving his little house and doing something worth while with their lives. Their families should be ashamed of themselves. My boyfriend normally likes all PlayBoy chicks, but when he caught me watching the reruns of this he nearly puked. I believe he said something like "This is all Hugh could muster up? These cheap looking sunset strip whores?" we had a good laugh!

Hooters is always hiring, always. You'd think it was easy, but no, you gotta refill the ice alot, it's very tiring.

I actually adore Kendra I think she is so cute and funny. I could so see myself hanging out with her. But I hate rap music and the whole hip hop scene so we may not get along on that. But she seems to be a fune carefree girl and her body is hot. As sooon as she is done with Hef I could so see her marryign a sexy black or hispanic man and dropping it like it shot all oevr him..lol

Isn't it great when the girls post here themselves? Chime in honeys: spelling, grammar & content... they're all optional!

Okay, I was killing time before Entourage was on and flipped over to the E! channel. I've seen this show before and tsk tsk'd about how vapid the girls come across-but what can one expect? However, once I put out of my mind that these are real individuals and that Hef is the dirtiest old man in the world, this show really has the makings of a great sitcom. I laughed my butt off when they were all running around the mansion for the murder mystery. Each girl is a character and I personally think Hef would be a brilliant casting director! Especially the way they do an 'old skool sitcom' scene at the beginning of each episode before the intro.

BTW-found it VERY funny that Kendra didn't know what a 'flapper' was. Silly girl, it's the sound you hear when you are running around the mansion without any panties on!

There is an interview with Bill Mahr and the girls up on Amazon.com's home page. Bridget and Kendra break curfew on Kendra's 21st brthday. I know it's sad, but I can't wait for this season to start.

I've grown to love this show. I can't wait for the season to start either. I wonder when Holly is planning to have that baby with Hef. The guy isn't getting any younger.

Bwah! And geez, Kendra was born in, what, 1985?

I really love this . . . show (?). It is the funniest thing on television. Even funnier than MTV's The Real World laught riot. I'm literally on the edge of my seat as I wait for the next idiotic and inappropriate dribble that's going to come out of Kendra's mouth. It's gotta be an act. Nobody is that clueless and ignorant. Nobody.

I laughed out loud when Heff took his three . . . uh . . . girlfriends on a tour of Chicago and a stroll down memory lane. So they're driving along in the gaudy limo (which I personally would be embarrassed to be seen in, but whatever tosses your bananas) and Heff is the tour guide, telling his three live-in hos where he grew up and how he built the Playboy empire with $400 and a wet dream or something. In all fairness, interesting stuff. So here's Heff "learning" his three real-life blow-up dolls about his youth, how it all began, and showing them his old stomping grounds.

All of sudden, Kendra--who seems to have an attention span of three seconds--looks out the window, gasps, interrupts Heff, and says, "Look! A big dragon!" Huh? What the . . . ? At that point, anything and everything Heffner had said or will say is meaningless. "A big dragon?" Laughed my ass off!

On a more serious note, I really don't find any of the three bimbetts sexy or desirable. The words "full body condom" come to mind a lot. Dressing skanky and acting like a complete air-head is not my idea of being sexy. There's no mystery or anything interesting about any of these three women. I almost feel sorry for them. Whatever their futures, it won't be anything pleasant. But in the meantime they're great entertainment fodder. Can't wait for the season premire. My VCR is locked and loaded.

There's another show on E! Entertainment Television called The Soup, which talks about pop culture events/entertainment shows of the past week and makes jokes about them. They showed a clip from the upcoming season of The Girls Next Door, in which Bridget says she wants to do a striptease for Hefner's 80th birthday. She's shown practicing, stripping down to pasties and a G-string, in front of Holly, Kenduh, and her mother and father.

I thought this show was already at the bottom, then it found a lower level.

I liked the way the father waited until she had already completed stripping before saying to his wife "It's time to go".
