While it was something of a bit part, at least the Countess had lines and appeared in not one but two scenes—one of them being nude. Tasteful nudity, though. You know, like the kind in Playgirl, except with less peen. (Or at least, we think. It was network nudity, so you couldn't see anything.) More »

The magazine's rep, Daniel Nardicio, says if the Jersey Shore star goes full-frontal: "We would offer Vinny $30,000 plus a portion of the proceeds." And if Snooki is to be believed, Vinny would need a really big spread. More »

On last night's episode, Bethenny said that when LuAnn lost her husband "she grew a penis"—which makes it even more hilarious that when Kelly confessed she'd be posing for Playboy, LuAnn confessed she'd graced the cover of Playgirl. More »

Sarah Palin's near-son-in-law Levi Johnston was on Joy Behar's HLN talk show last night (along with Palin-hating blogger Andrew Sullivan), where he talked about the Palins' frosty home-life, his gay following, and gossip about the governor in his upcoming book. More »

Irin Carmon — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 18:30:00 EST

The man responsible for promoting Playgirl's Levi Johnston shoot recently said the magazine became irrelevant because "the women working on it weren't keeping up with the times" and didn't cater to its not-so-secret gay audience. One ex-staffer begs to differ. More »

Christie Hefner: "Liberal Feminist," Capitalist Porn-Monger, Or Both?

Anna North — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 12:30:00 EDT

A Times profile paints Christie Hefner, who recently retired as CEO of Playboy Enterprises, as a feminist and liberal leader. But given how she and dad Hugh made their money, is this possible? More »

Former Playgirl Editor Schools Fox News On What Women Want

Playgirl Editor Schools Fox News On What Women Want" alt="Click here to read Former Playgirl Editor Schools Fox News On What Women Want" src="http://cache.jezebel.com/assets/images/39/2008/11/caldwell.JPG"/>

Last night, Nicole Caldwell, former Playgirl editor-in-chief, was interviewed on Fox News' Red Eye about the demise of her former home away from home. In between a bunch of dick jokes, Caldwell discussed the fact that — despite Playgirl's reputation of being more for gay men than women — it was part of her job to provide content that appealed to women. (It was, after all, originally founded as a feminist response to Playboy.) Caldwell chastised host Greg Gutfeld after he insisted that Playgirl's demise was due to the fact that men are more visually stimulated than women, telling him, "I'm not going to accuse you of having no emotional component just because women are perceived as being more emotional." Video after the jump. More »

Oops.

Dodai Stewart — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 12:30:00 EDT

Two hot, single dudes were disinvited to Cosmopolitan's "50 Hottest Bachelors" party Tuesday night, after editors found out that both Maine's Derek Hawkes and West Virginia's Daniel Kirk had once posed nekkid (one on a gay porn site; the other for Playgirl.com). As Jossip points out: "Cosmo likes guys who show skin, just not too much skin." [Jossip, Page Six] More »

The 8 Worst Hairdos A Man Can Have

Dodai Stewart — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 13:00:00 EDT

What is it about men and hair? Women are always the ones said to be washing, dying, fixing, cutting and obsessing over their tresses, but some guys can be very attached to their locks — dating back to Samson. And why is it that some guys will, completely unapologetically, rock the worst hair ever seen by human eyes? And act proud of it? Radar has a list of fashion-industry men with "fancy locks," including designer Alexander Wang and Vogue editor Hamish Bowles. But they've got nothing on the dudes rounded up on WOW Report (from a NSFW blog called Fey Friends) in their post, "Inexcusable Hairdos on the Nude Dudes of Playgirl". See men with contemptible coifs of yesteryear — as well as hideous hair of today — after the jump. More »

Former Playgirl editor Colleen Kane's solemnly salacious goodbye to her former editorial home does a lot more than make me want to surf the internet for pictures from the back issues (though, it does that too, as this picture shows). But once I got done making my way through my Google search results (David Duchovny! Bert Reynolds! Brad Pitt! John Travolta! Scott motherfucking Bakula!), my re-ordered thoughts turned to the big question raised by Kane's piece — when did Playgirl stop catering to actual women? More »

Ladies, it's time to pour one out: We've...

Tracie Egan Morrissey — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 13:40:00 EDT

Ladies, it's time to pour one out: We've learned the unfortunate news today that Playgirl is shuttering its print publication. The brand will live on through the internet, mainly through videos and pictorials, but not much editorial. To be fair, this will probably only really come as a disappointment to 13-year-old kids who like to secretly look at pictures of penises in the back of the bookstore/newsstand. But still.

Really, Eliot? You Interfaced With This?

This?" alt="Click here to read Really, Eliot? You Interfaced With This?" src="http://cache.jezebel.com/assets/images/39/2008/03/small_NYPcover-thumb.jpg"/>

Commenting on an Eliot Spitzer whore scandal is vaguely as exciting than reading about the intricacies of trade negotiations — and also, somewhat less important — but I had to point out this quote from a source close to Kristin "Billie" Davis (who "hails from a rough-in-tumble California trailer park.") "She personally interfaced with Spitzer a number of times." Wow, "interface." That used to be corporate jargon for "talked to" and now it is being used to denote... bareback anal. [NYP]

Jessica Alba Is About To Get A Lot Of Doctored Photos Sent To Her iPhone

Moe — Mon, 09 Jul 2007 11:30:46 EDT

Jessica Alba likes weiners and she's not afraid to look at glossy pictures of them, she apparently told some GQ writer for the August issue:

Men's magazines have nipples, so why don't women have a magazine where men show their penises? If there was a magazine like that I'd buy it. Nudity's not a big deal to me.

Um, surely Jessica Alba, who once sued Playboy, has heard of Playgirl? But more importantly, why do starlets always come away from interviews with gentlemen's magazines sounding like more culturally literate Bond Girls? At least with porn, the only personality attributes they ever try to ascribe on the jerkoff specimens begin and end with "bisexual." More »
