Playboy

Leave it to Hugh Hefner to bring Paris Hilton, Shanna Moakler and Travis Barker all together again.

All of the players from one of Hollywood's most sordid love triangles showed up to Hef's annual Halloween bash over the weekend and despite the violent history between the ladies, none of them came to blows with each other.

Jeremy Piven, Three-6 Mafia, Nicky Hilton and Pauly Shore were also enjoying the mansion scenery, along with stars like Owen Wilson, who was spotted getting cozy with a mystery blonde dressed as an angel. And while most of the costumes skewed towards the skanky, the winner of tasteless costume of the night went to a man: Bill Maher. The comedian arrived as the late Steve Irwin, stingray barb through his chest and all. Come on Bill, "South Park" did it already. We thought you were more clever than that.

No party would be complete without Paris Hilton dancing horribly to one of her own songs and Hef's fiesta didn't disappoint. As partygoers looked on, the heiress, who donned her own version of the classic Playboy Bunny outfit, writhed to her "hit" song "Stars Are Blind."

After watching her dance, you may wish you were too.

Holly and Bridget searched through rows of pumpkins before finally loading their trunk full of, ahem, gourds to take back and decorate at the Mansion.

Let's just say we can't wait for the Christmas tree hunt to begin.

The Hyde doorman struck again, adding Shauna Sand to the list of the club's rejects.

The former Playboy Playmate and ex-wife of Lorenzo Lamas tried in vain to get into the Hollywood hot spot but apparently she didn't make a reservation and was shut down. Sand tried to cling to whatever fame she had left, signing autographs for seekers as she waited in front of the host stand.

Shauna's date, a younger and hotter version of her ex-husband, told our photog "Tell us that we are not the first?!" While he can rest assured knowing he's not the first to be denied and definitely not the last, the company he's keeping may not have helped matters.

A former Playboy Playmate is set to file suit today against the NYPD and a New York City cab driver for allegedly roughing her up and leaving her in permanent pain, according to the New York Post.

Stephanie Adams, once crowned Miss November, is alleging the NYPD and the cab driver's company assaulted her and seeks unspecified damages. Adams says she hailed a cab driven by Eric Darko on the evening of May 25. According to the Post, the ride went sour when Adams asked Darko to drop her off closer to her apartment, which was apparently out of Darko's way. According to a Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) report, "The driver became very upset and cursed at her."

From there, Adams called 911 but the cabby told officers who arrived on the scene that Adams had a gun and was threatening to shoot him. According to the suit, the cops were leering at her skintight outfit before wrestling her to the ground and they "put pressure" on her back.

"Snakes on a Playmate" is exactly what it sounds like. Playboy Playmates and models seductively photographed with, you guessed it, snakes. Now before everyone rushes over to Playboy.com we have to warn you. First the site isn't exactly safe for work, second you must be a member of the Playboy Cyber Club in order to peruse the snakes and their naked friends.

I think we all know what Samuel L. Jackson would have to say about this.

Hollywood was overrun with sex appeal Tuesday, and TMZ's cameras caught all the sizzling action on tape!

Our first stop was Barney's New York in Beverly Hills, where we spotted Heather Locklear looking radiant after a hard day of shopping.

Next we rolled over to celebrity favorite Mr. Chow, where Bai Ling was signing autographs after her gourmet dinner.

Finally it was onto Social Hollywood, which was bursting with hotties for the September issue release party, featuring all of Hugh Hefner's girlfriends on the cover.

Hef's three girlfriends, stars of "E" Entertainment's hit show "The Girls Next Door" will all be at Kitson July 29th for the unveiling of the jewelry collection and to sign autographs for fans.

Natalie Reid, a Paris Hilton look-alike, will appear in next month's issue of Playboy magazine.

The issue also features a look at the E! series "Girls Next Door" and an interview with Eva Longoria.

Playboy.com's promo for the issue says, "She went from stripping at Scores to living a socialite's life, simply because she looks exactly like Paris Hilton. You won't believe your eyes."

E! is taking viewers back inside the Playboy Mansion when the second season of "Girls Next Door" premieres this Sunday at 9PM ET.

Hugh Hefner and his girlfriends -- Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson -- let cameras in on every aspect of their lives. The hour-long premiere episode focuses on the planning of Hef's 80th birthday bash.

Besides organizing the party, each of the girls is stressing out over what to get the man who gets everything. Not to give too much away, but Bridget decides to jump out of a cake and strip for Hef. So she prepares for the dance by practicing the seductive dance in front of a few friends and family -- including her dad!!!

Why didn't they think of this before?? Sure, we all wanna learn the solo to "Hot for Teacher," but do we really have to see a picture of Eddie Van Halen while doing so? Well, Guitar World decided to reward us for all the years of bleeding fingers and looking at long-haired guys clad in black.

Guitar World will feature Playboy founder and ultimate ladies man Hugh Hefner on the cover of their 2007 Buyers Guide, which hits newsstands on June 20th. But wait! It gets better. Hugh is flanked by his three super hot girlfriends and stars of the hit E! reality show, "The Girls Next Door." Even though Hef is holding a Gibson 1957 Vintage Original Spec Goldtop Historic Reissue guitar, we're sure the readers will be checking out something else.

Hugh Hefner's birthday was April 9 and the playboy has been partying ever since.

Hef was in Cannes today, accompanied by three of his Playmate girlfriends, as part of his whirlwind tour around Europe to celebrate his 80th birthday.

The Playboy founder, who's famous for throwing some of the world's best bashes, revealed one of his secrets for a great party was making sure the male to female ratio was always atleast "three women to one guy."

With his girlfriends by his side, Hugh Hefner celebrated his 80th birthday at the Playboy Mansion on Saturday. Hef was decked out in his traditional silk pajamas.

Paris Hilton, Owen Wilson, Donald Trump, Farah Fawcett and Oliver Stone were all on hand to join in on the festivities.

Super hot Jessica Alba has dropped her beef with Playboy magazine after an apology from the silk-pajamed one himself, Hugh Hefner.

The battle began when Alba says Playboy used a publicity photo from Alba's film, 'Into the Blue,' on the cover of their March 25 Sexiest Celebrities issue without her expressed consent. Alba has never posed for Playboy, and has repeatedly said she will not be photographed nude. By putting her on the cover, Alba felt Playboy tarnished her image by intimating there were nude photos inside.

"This was never about money," Alba said in a written statement. "It was about setting the record straight about something that was done without my knowledge or consent."

In addition to the apology, Playboy also made donations on behalf of Alba to Keep A Child Alive and the Until There's A Cure Foundation.

The cover shows the 24-year-old actress in a bikini, next to the headline "25 Sexiest Celebrities." Besides demanding that Playboy stop distributing the March issue, Alba is asking for "monetary settlement" for damages to her reputation and career.

In a Feb. 23 letter obtained by The Smoking Gun Web site, Alba's lawyers told Playboy the magazine used a photo of Alba meant to promote the movie "Into the Blue" without her consent. Sony Pictures, which owns the image, sent a separate letter alleging that Playboy initially offered to pay Alba to pose for the cover of the issue. When her publicist refused, Playboy resorted to using "false pretenses" to obtain the promotional shot, according to the letter.

"Playboy has violated my personal rights and blatantly misled the public who might think I had given them permission to put me on the cover when I didn't," Alba said in a statement.

A Playboy spokeswoman said Alba was placed on the cover after being chosen "sexiest star of the year" by its readers.
