Playboy TV (formerly the Playboy Channel, aka that thing one kid in middle school’s dad subscribed to, instantly making him the most popular eighth grader around) has started producing reality TV. Their new series is called Brooklyn Kind of Love and it looks terrible. (Regarding the title: It seems to refer to the kind of love where one cast member has tattoos and another is a lesbian. Perhaps they’re also Yankees fans?)
Question: Emphasizing something as “reality” programming just points out the inherent unreality of porn, right? Except in this case, the show takes the stereotype about women in pornography — that they just cannot get enough dick — and makes it the reality. Based on the trailer, Brooklyn appears to be a show about four oversexed women whose main ambition in life is to get laid as frequently as possible. But here’s the kicker, the reason why this show is even more detrimental than the standard porn fare: All of these sexually overzealous gals’ partners are fed up with the constant demand for fornication. The men (plus that one lesbian partner) are exhausted by their partners’ crazy need for sex. More »

Well at least we can’t make a blond joke here: 21-year-old brunette Playgirl Tiffany Livingston freaked out on a recent flight from Orlando to Newark, went to the nearest emergency exit, and tried to “steady herself” with the handle release before some cops dragged her away. The official publicist spin is that she didn’t have her medication, but what self-respecting Hugh Hefner prodigy travels without her medicine case? More »
Sure, we could have made a traffic-baiting title here, like “Mad Men’s Crista Flanagan Topless In Playboy!” (sorry Huffington Post), but the truth is, we have no idea who Crista is. Oh, she plays the switchboard operator on the show. Can we count up how many seconds of screen-time that has nailed her (yikes)?
Well, at least it gives Hugh Hefner a reason to make the August cover all vintage Playboy-like, recreating the infamous Toni Lacey edition from 1960, so we’ll… More »
• Don’t refuse sex to a hooker with bad teeth. And if you do refuse and she robs you of your $78 dollars (hey, you pay for what you get), don’t go to the police, because, d’uh, you were trying to buy sex. But if you are going to do both those things, do it in Florida, where the cops won’t charge you for soliciting a prostitute. (Miami Herald)

Playboy Enterprises has sued Drake and his record label for copyright infringement, claiming he illegally sampled a song they owned on his hit single “Best I Ever Had.”

Drake’s song, of his EP “So Far Gone,” peaked at number 2 on the Billboard 100. His… More »

We may have been offended by John Mayer’s comments to Playboy on behalf of womankind, but don’t ever underestimate the power of a protective daddy.
Over the weekend, OK! magazine reported that Jessica Simpson’s poppa Joe had words with John, defending his daughter against the singer’s description of her as “sexual napalm,” among other things.
Joe called John and told him “to stay away from his family and man-up and apologize for his comments,” a source told the magazine. Thankfully, the source… More »
It lasted an excruciatingly long four days and seven hours, but things are right in the world again: John Mayer’s Twitter standoff is finally over. After a candid Playboy interview during which he made racist comments about his penis and spilled explicit details about sex with Jessica Simpson — thus digging himself a hole so deep he made it halfway China — the Twitter fiend apologized for his remarks and took a conspicuous break from his account. What broke… More »

Lindsay Lohan is bringing sexy back… but not to Playboy! Although Lindsay Lohan posed semi-nude for New York Magazine earlier this year, she has turned down a chance to pose for Playboy.
Lindsay was reportedly offered $700,000 to pose for an 8-page spread for Playboy for their 55th anniversary issue in January. Lindsay Lohan’s rep had this to say to Playboy reps:
“If there’s nudity, then the answer’s no … She’s not going down the magazine road again”
