Scoobie, they were barking up the wrong tree with trying to use Hef as a sugar daddy. lol! They should have latched onto some of the athletes who frequent the mansion. That would be a perfect plan for Kendra.

We know Hef isn't especially generous with the cash and his taste in jewelry runs to cheapo PB pendant necklaces with thin, fakey looking rub-off gold chains Yuck! What a sport and a big spender that Hef is!
Perhaps he's just smart enough to know that they ain't with him for his sparkling personality or his boyish good looks. Just a thought.
It seems to me, from the footage (and we all know that isn't the most reliable source) that the girls don't spend a whole, whole lot of private time with Hef. And he seems to keep all of them--even Holly--at arm's length. Sure she has her little stuff that she does but I don't see that romantic closeness with any of them. For example, does Hef only do the quick peck on the mouth? I've always wondered if he's ever REALLY kissed any of them. I could see it happening with Kendra maybe. And I could see Holly trying to suck Hef's face off. Bridget not so much. But then again, perhaps Hef just isn't into PDA.

That could be. But if you think about it, this has to be THE UNsexiest show on TV. And it's about PB, which is supposed to signify sex. They completely avoid talking about sex and never show anything even remotely about sex. Not that I want to see any of Hef's sexcapades -- YEECHH! But if it weren't for Izzie's book, I'd think nothing was going in that mansion except sleeping.
Are there ever any references to sex? Once in a while Kendra might -- just might -- mention that a guy is hot. And she's said a few times this season what a great boyfriend Hef is. And I think Bridget said a guy was cute once. Holly wouldn't do that 'cause she doesn't look at anyone under 80 and she doesn't refer to Hef as her boyfriend.

I'm not very impressed with the new Playmate of the Year. What happened to that dark haired girl from season one? She was in the same episode during season one with this new Playmate of the Year. She should have been picked. She was gorgeous.

Am I alone in these thoughts?...Hef, for an octogenarian or for ANY age, is still a thorough, mature, and businesslike man in his operations with his enterprise. I am surprised to see how much he still does with PB and how cool and collected he seems to be with the business and with everyday matters (what we see on TV, anyway!)
If he likes to surround himself w/ the ladies, and they're consenting, hey, you go Hef!
Bridget doesn't bother me; she actually seems genuinely nice (although I can't see that she has enough brains to get her through grad school but apparently she did?).
Holly tends to grate me...Someone else here wrote "Does she pee around Hef's bed to mark her territory?" and that had me ROFL. So accurate!
My fave is Kendra. She's laid back and not catty, and doesn't seem to buy into all the stuff the other girls do. I love that her mom and grandmom are so supportive of her; you always think that for a girl to seek out attention in a way that may look exploitative as far as her body goes, she must not have been raised with support around her.
As a side, I knew a Playboy model in the early 90s, she was the girlfriend of someone I worked with. Aside from being pretty with a smokin' figure, she was smart and very kind. I keep thinking of her when my mind wants to categorize the Playmates in any way. :)

I was happy that Sara got PMOY. Even thought I thought that the brunette that went to the golf course with Kendra would get it. I think that Sara is very pretty in an understated way, she's very all-american, what's so wrong with that? Who said PMOY had to be exotic? I think that there has been a good mix of all different shapes, sizes, hair colors, etc. it was nice to see the true girl next door get. I think she was perfect. And she seemed like such a sweetheart and very modest.
I think that Kendra needs to mary an athlete and have a show based around it, like newlyweds, haha. She cracks me up. She's been my favorite since the beginning.

Umm..I'd say most of the Playmates are bleach blond 'plasticine' GND types. The exotic brunette is rare, as Hef prefers blonds. Just a matter of opinion, as most remember that particular brunette as being 'naturally' drop dead gorgeous.

If I were Bridget I would rather have people saying that I look good for a XX year old, as opposed to people not believing that she's 34.
I actually like her and think she's naturally prettier than the other two. The only episode that I thought she looked like white hot shit was Kendra's birthday trip to Vegas. She was wearing these pink shorts, wedges, and a tank w/o bra. Mr. Snarla doesn't follow the show, and he caught a look at her. His comment: "Who's the chick with the F.U.P.?"

Dude. You read fucked up nursery rhymes.
My TiVo always cuts off the promos for the next week, or else I would have been fooled for about three minutes that Kendra and Bridget were gone. Only because from what I've read Bridget was crying? But then I remembered that she always cries. An episode without Kendra will be a very boring episode indeed. Certainly it will be easier on my ears. Dumb donkey bray.

Hey, snarla, what is F.U.P.?
kallyk25
May 10, 2007 @ 4:52 pm
I'm not snarla, but to the best of my knowledge, FUP, also known as FUPA, prounounced (foo-pah) is fat upper pussy (area).
It's when the lower ab area above your crotch is fat. Well, not just when it's fat, when it's displayed in skin tight stuff (think club girl wearing last year's pants) or is hideously huge (think woman in leggings at WalMart).

.Usually from the result of a lower abdomen surgery (mine bladder reconstruction at the age of eight) and Bridget’s likely from the birth of Anastasia. Though Team Bridget all the way!
I remember a couple of times in the first season, Holly made it a point to tell us that she and Hef had sex. Creepy.
She talked about it a lot during the THS but I remember on the episode after Kendra's birthday, when Holly came home early, she said "Somehow I think the party didn't stop when I got home." I remember it was seriously the most awkward wording and worst delivered innuendo. EVER.

I finally read Jill Ann's book via the blogspot link a few pages back. Hey, it filled up some work time. Although parts of it were semi-interesting, most of it was "I got into this party, met this celeb and my bf waited in the car."
Anyhoo, I can't believe how much I like Kendra now. She seems to see the mansion for what it really is, and accepts it. Holly on the other hand - denial city. I think all that bleach they are using on her hair is rotting her evil little brain. Hef will be a corpse (note, I said corpse, not walking corpse) before he agrees to marry anyone, even if she's the #1.

There is a huge, really candid article about The Girls Next Door (with interviews with Hef and the girls) in the new issue of Elle (Jessica Beil is on the cover). I think everyone here would LOVE it. The author mentions how Holly can barely tolerate Kendra, how Holly is delusional in her dreams of marrying Hef, and so on.
ETA: How silly of me to leave out the best quote from the article:
Hefner alludes in passing to the fact that Holly, who wasn't his instant type the way Kendra was, set her sights on him rather than the reverse: "She found me and she loved me." He goes on to explain that she doesn't look the same as when he first met her, that she "became beautiful," helped by "a little thing she had done to her nose."

I saw the V-Day and PMOY episodes again last night. Maybe I'm boring, but I thought the dominos game looked kind of fun. If they did that every single night, I'd be bored, but they obviously don't. I'm 22, and I'll admit to playing board games in my PJs with family or friends on a weekend night from time to time. I kind of thought it was sweet that he was actually spending quality time with them when they weren't functioning as arm candy. (shrug)

This pretty much confirms what we've snickered about all along - that Hef didn't fall for Holly; Holly simply set her sights on HIM and has hung on like a parasite ever since.

Daphnee, I see that you're new. If you'll look back a few pages, you'll see that there is a great amount of speculation that Anastasia is actually Bridget's daughter, instead of her sister.
snarla
May 11, 2007 @ 4:33 pm
Yep, that's what I mean by FUP. It's also called GUNT (gut + *** = gunt).
I've never associated it with childbirth, but it's just a sign of extra weight and weak lower abs. We see it alot where I live, with a high number of older women wearing clothes that are meant for girls in their 20's. Mr. Snarla will turn to me and whisper "tuck the fup", which is essentially code for "check out that older woman trying to look 22." That's exactly what we had with Bridget on the Vegas show: she was dressed way too young.

If any boyfriend of mine ever said that about me, he'd be an ex boyfriend pretty damn quick. Hey honey, I love you now, but I didn't before I hooked you up with plastic surgery to make you look like a barbie.

Hmmm to me Bridget looks 34. Not older, not younger. If she's 40, then she looks damn good for 40.
Also, if Anastacia is her daughter, do you all think that she knows this? Or is this supposedly a secret that only Bridget and her parents know. Either way, soooo fucked up.
Regarding Bridget's age and looks, I've said it before and I'll say it again, only in Hugh's fucked up world would Bridget look old and heavy. My God she's forty something years younger than Hef and people think she looks "old"? I realize she looks older than the other girls but that is Hugh's fault for only being attracted to fetuses.

The thing that makes Bridget look old, fat, etc. is how she is always inappropriately dressed with the tummy shirts, pigtails, etc for someone in her 30's. They really make her look "Baby Jane-ish" to me.

I've heard that rumor about Ana being Bridget's daughter, but I don't believe it. There was never any source other than the rumors that Bridget was lying about her age, and seemed to have started as a joke. Ana got really upset when she was asked, and denied it. She is her half-sister, btw (from her mother and stepfather).
Thanks for the heads up about the Elle article. I can't wait to read it.
Mandy02180
May 11, 2007 @ 7:26 pm
I am looking forward to the Elle article too!
Has any proof been given by anyone that Ana is Bridget's daughter? Are birth certificates public records? If they are, then someone could check Lodi town hall & whatever that other CA town the family lived in to see who is listed on the birth certificate. Unless it doesn't really matter or is more fun to speculate...
YankeeRose06
May 11, 2007 @ 7:44 pm
I can't see any reason Bridget would lie about Ana being her daughter if she was. I mean, it's not like she's some goody two shoes church girl. She's a playboy bunny sharing an old man. I doubt she's so prude that she thinks having a daughter would tarnish her image. I just can't see lying about that.
I agree that the way she dresses is awful. Her pink room is really...odd. As soon as I hit 12 or13, I didn't want a little gir's room anymore and here she is in her 30's acting like 10 year old. Which makes her relationship w/ Hef all the more creepy. It's like she knows he likes the younguns so she figures she's almost over the hill in Hef's world. If she keeps herself looking as much like a little girl as possible, Hef will still want her. I'm convinced that if there was no age of consent, Hef would date 14 year olds if he could.
What's funny about this show is I'm loving it more and more and my husband hates it. I used to tune in and watch a bit, now I tape it, God help me. My husband can't stand it though. Is that just us or are there male fans among us? My husband lost interest quickly. He said it's a girl show, lol.

How old was Kendra when she joined the compound? Wasnt' she like 19? I mean, Kendra was in high school 4 years ago and she's got an 80 year old boyfriend. What's sad is these girls think that their life is good and this stint as Hef's girlfriend is going to take them places, lol. Poor Holly, she doesn't care about anything but being Hef's wife. What a goal.

I don't think she would be concerned that having a daughter would tarnish her image, it's how old Anastacia is. That's not to say that I think Anastacia is her daughter. I just think that if she were, I believe that Bridget doesn't admit it because she doesn't want to admit to having a child that old.

The pink room wouldnt even be so bad if it was an adult room. The stuffed bears on the doll sofa, the crib, the Ikea childrens wardrobe would be just as bad in a blue room. Kendra's room is the only one that is close to being age appropriate. When I was her age, my room was a mess too. And Holly is sleeping in that fire trap.
As far as Bridget's age, she claims to be a few weeks younger than me. No way, no how. Granted I get told all the time I look very young, but even compared to my group of friends she looks old. I would blame it on the playboy lifestyle, but sitting around the house playing dominoes with grandpa and planning dates for the dogs cant be that taxing.
I could see Anastacia as being Bridgett's. She seems like that girl that thought having a baby would be so fun. But then she had the baby and realized there is a whole lot more to motherhood than matching mother/baby outfits. I remember girls in my highschool wanting babies so they could have someone to love not realizing its a lot different having a baby than it is carrying a dog around in a cute bag.

Something is going on there, whether it was a pregnancy at 14 (or younger), getting molested/raped... something happened to her that wasn't a good thing. Stripping while your step father is there? Creeeeeeeeeepy. Married and sharing two other girls with an 80 year old? Not normal. Her bedroom and wardrobe say it all. Ultimately I think she tries her best to be a nice person (thoughtful gifts, planning stuff).
Holly is catty, delusional, and is going to be very disappointed when she wakes up next Puffin's corpse one day.

I posted this idea, too (though, in itself, this is no evidence that she is Bridget's daughter)...but they don't sound like names the same mother would come up with. "Bridget" sounds like an Irish washerwoman while "Anastacia" sounds like Bridget's idea of exotic. (no offense to any Bridgets out there!)

I thought it was so cute in the PMOTY episode how excited Kendra got when Monica started hitting the golf balls. Kendra was all, "yeah, she did good, I was like yeah!" or whatever she said. You know if it were Holly she would be all sullen and snotty that someone else was in danger of upstaging her. Like if one of the other girls did the hula hoop better at Hooters, she would not have been lall, "She did so good, I was so happy!" She would be like, "that b*tch, I hope she dies."

But seriously, if I had her body I'd be thrilled! She's not a rail, she's not plastic, she's a woman with a very healthy looking body (I was going to say that she was normal, but that would have been incorrect). Even though her choice of costumes is questionable, I believe her to be an attractive girl. I will say that she could easily find a much hotter and more age-appropriate boyfriend, though!

I agree. I think that Bridget is fine for what she is. It's what she may be pretending to be that's not really vibing well. Bridget's age, whatever it may be, is at least obvious in comparison to the other girls. Also with her body type. I think she looks amazing for mid 30's-early 40's or whatever she is. I don't even think she's strange or weird for the babydoll stuff. Overall, I think it's just kind of sad for the most part, because obviously it's stemming from somewhere. Even if she didn't have a crazy past, it's got to be hard for her to try to fit in with the other girls and that lifestyle. I know it's her choice, but sometimes you get in so deep, you either convince yourself that you're OK or you don't know where or how to get out. However, I'm still conflicted about Bridget, because despite the conditions of her life, I still think there is something kind of bizarre about her. I feel so torn about the way she is shown on the show.
However, I can say that I'm so over Holly. The Cribs was just on with the Playboy mansion and I had it on mute (deep philosophical conversation with the boyfriend over beers was going on but I kept peeking a glimpse since I've never seen it) and I thought Holly just looked desperate laying all over the bed or trying to be in every shot.
