Playboy Launches New Safe-For-Work Website Without Naked Women

Susannah BreslinJuly 20, 2010 //

Playboy Enterprises Inc. has been struggling in recent years, now that porn is everywhere you click. Sure, plenty of dudes (six million, to be exact) still visit Playboy.com every month, but they’re less likely to do so when they’re at work, what with all the naked ladies and whatnot. So, the always-thoughtful Playboy guys created a new safe-for-work website for fans of the magazine who would like their online experience with a little less nipples, please, TheSmokingJacket.com. Of course, the name of The Smoking Jacket is taken from Hef’s favorite garment worn over his omnipresent red silk pajamas. The content is a little bit Maxim and generally pretty horny-doggy, but we found it to be a bit more female-friendly than Playboy.com, where it’s all Playmates all the time. Not that we don’t like Playmates. It’s just that it can get a little crowded with that many boobs around, you know? In any case, we’ll be reading. [Yahoo! News] Keep reading »

“Well, if there was, it’s the one that’s sitting right across from me, Mary O’Connor. She’s my secretary, and she’s the wonder of my life.”

—Hugh Hefner explaining that there is one woman over the age of 70 that he’d consider dating. Mary, I think it’s time to make your move. Though I secretly hope she has a hot relationship with a 25-year-old beefcake and would tell Hugh he’s too old for her. [NY Post]

This was trying to capture an era.” Riiight. [Huffington Post] Keep reading »

Quotable: Hugh Hefner Isn’t The Marrying Kind

Jessica WakemanJuly 12, 2010 //

Hugh Hefner: I think there is no single answer, no single road to Mecca. I have been married twice, and those were not the happiest times of my life. Part of the problem, quite frankly, is that when you get married, the romance disappears and the children arrive and the love is transferred. It shouldn’t be that way, but too often it is transferred to the children.

New York Times: There is more to life than being adored. There are other rewards to marriage.

Hefner:Unfortunately, they come from other women.

Portuguese Playboy Is Getting Crucified

Ami AngelowiczJuly 9, 2010 //

The Portuguese publishing partners of Playboy are getting crucified for their July issue. Their in-poor-taste cover features a racy pic of Christ cradling a nakey Mary Magdalene type. Inside the issue, there is allegedly a photo spread featuring the lord and savior observing a lesbian kiss.

Playboy Enterprises Inc. is less than thrilled about the JC spread. In fact, they want to sever ties with their Portuguese partners for neglecting to get the controversial cover approved before publication. But the pics of Christ’s res-erection may not have been meant to be exploitative or offensive—they are thought to be a tribute to Portuguese author Jose Saramago who recently passed. His last novel published was The Gospel According to Jesus Christ. So what do you think? Was this cover too blasphemous for publication? [AOL] Keep reading »

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comJune 25, 2010 //

Justin Bieber‘s parents had him young—when his mom, Pattie Mallette, was 18 and his dad, Jeremy Bieber, was 21. Justin was raised by Pattie—she’s the one who posted the video that launched his career on YouTube. Now, Playboy is giving Pattie her own shot at fame. They are reportedly offering her $50,000 to appear topless in a spread. Do we think she’ll do it? And shall we start placing wagers on what the headline will be? Twenty bucks says it’s “Bieber Fever.”

Would You Rather: Appear Nude On A Vogue Cover, Or Fully-Clothed In A Playboy Spread?

Leonora EpsteinJune 24, 2010 //

Welcome to Would You Rather, a game in which we concoct hypothetical style dilemmas and ask you to choose which option’s worse.

Today’s challenge: Would you rather appear completely naked (we’re talking full-frontal, vag-in-view nudity) on the cover of Vogue, or appear fully-clothed in a Playboy spread? Strip for a classy mag, and most supermarket shoppers will now know what your ta-tas look like. Stay clothed for the porn publication, and you may get less exposure (if they keep the Playboy issues behind the counter), but your reputation might suffer … especially if your face happens to appear right next to the MTV reality star du jour’s vag.

Do Boobs Have Their Own “Eras”? Let’s Ask Playboy!

Jessica WakemanJune 14, 2010 //

Bored at work? A little horny? Head right on over to Playboy‘s website for a gratuitous boob photo spread on the “Evolution of the Boob”! Playboy dipped into their old photos to show us breasts from the past six decades because, apparently, “boob shape” is as cyclical as fashion. Now, I looked at those mammaries long and hard and I daresay there’s no difference between ’50s boobs or ’80s boobs or ’90s boobs. The only way breasts have “evolved” — if you could even call it that — would be in terms of “pre-breast implants” and “post breast-implants.” But hey, if Playboy‘s foxy Miss November pin-up 1958 reminds men that bleached blond hair, fake nails and giant silicone tatas were not always considered “attractive,” fine with me!
