Hugh Hefner, 83, was hit with a lawsuit claiming he knocked back potential buyers of his company in order to upkeep a heady lifestyle.

The Playboy magnate who is the main shareholder and founder of the Chicago-based Playboy Enterprises is being sued by company investor David Brown. Brown in a class action filed in Los Angeles cites a decision by Iconix Brand Group Inc. to break off purchase discussions with Playboy. Iconix, based in New York, allegedly decided the deal would be too complicated to carry out, according to sources.

Business Week reports Brown’s lawsuit claims Hefner also rejected an offer from San Francisco-based Golden Gate Capital Corp. Brown’s filing stated: “According to published reports, one of the main reasons why these deals failed was Hefner’s insistence on maintaining the lifestyle to which he has grown accustomed.”

Brown, of Los Angeles, also said: “In its 1999 heyday, Playboy traded as high as $36 per share. Today, the price of a Playboy magazine is far higher than the price of a share of Playboy common stock.”

TMZ, meanwhile, today reported it obtained legal documents that represent the finalisation of the magnate’s divorce from Kimberly Hefner official on March 11 with sources citing a confidential property settlement. The couple married in 1989 and have two adult sons.

Playboy owner Hugh Hefner has revealed that he once almost died while having sex.

The 83-year-old, who currently lives in the Playboy Mansion with his three girlfriends Crystal Harris and twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon, told how a sex aid once almost led to his death.

He said: “There was a moment when I was having sex with four Playmates and I almost swallowed a Ben Wa Ball.”

Hefner, who said he has sex “two to three times a week”, also revealed that his most treasured possession is his “rotating round bed” and that the love of his life has been “probably my girlfriend, Crystal Harris”.

Hugh Hefner wants actress Megan Fox to appear in Playboy, reports say.

Hugh wants the 23-year-old to pose in the famous men’s magazine.

Hefner, 83, said: “Megan is a fox.”

Hef’s girlfriends also have their eyes on Kelly Osbourne to pose in the magazine.

Crystal Harris said: “She’s losing weight and she’s blond now. She looks good. I want to see what she looks like naked.”

Karissa Shannon added: “Yeah! We want to see Kelly Osbourne naked!”

Kelly reportedly doesn’t want to pose in Playboy but it is a possibility that Megan still might.

Playboy magazine magnate Hugh Hefner, 83, has filed for divorce from his second wife, former Playmate Kimberley Conrad, after the couple’s 11-year separation.

Hefner’s filing cites irreconcilable differences, Los Angeles court records show. But the filing is said to be triggered by Conrad suing her husband in recent weeks for $5million over the sale of a home they owned together.

Conrad, 47, has two children with Hefner. She has lived with his monetary support – $250,000 per year – in a home next to the Playboy mansion.

Hefner has a few dates right now and says marriage is not on the cards. “It’s unlikely since I haven’t been very successful at it. But anything is possible.”

He is said to be seeing Playmates Crystal Harris, 23, and twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon, 19.

Hefner says he does not owe Conrad money and has honoured a prenuptial arrangement the pair had. He said: “I would’ve been happy to divorce her when we separated, but she wanted to remain married for our boys.”

Mum-of-eight Kate Gosselin has been asked to pose for Playboy.

The octo mum has reportedly been offered $400,000 by Hugh Hefner to pose for the famous magazine.

Despite the offer, the 34-year-old doesn’t want to strip down.

A source said: “Hugh sent her a letter, but Kate was totally mortified and threw it away!

“She didn’t think it was appropriate because of the children.”

Former Playmate Kendra Wilkinson called Hugh Hefner to break the news she is expecting a baby with American Football star Hank Baskett, in the latest episode of her US reality show.

And Hefner, 83, showed he’s not bitter about Kendra leaving him for Hank by offering his congratulations to the couple and telling them: “I love you both.”

As Kendra dialled the Playboy Mansion, Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Hank admitted: “I’m kind of nervous about this call.” But he had no need to worry as Hefner seemed thrilled.

After Kendra, 24, told him: “I’m pregnant!” Hefner replied: “You’re kidding! Congratulations, both you and Hank. That’s wonderful.”

Kendra added: “I’m going to be a pregnant bride, Hef.”

Hefner joked: “Well, what’s more contemporary than that?”

He added: “I love you both and you will always have a second home here.”

The Playboy founder, who swiftly replaced Kendra and his two other former girlfriends with three even younger beauties, also spoke to Hank on the phone.

He told him: “I’m doing good, but I’m not doing as good as you, obviously!”

Kendra Wilkinson and fiance Hank Baskett will not be having a bachelor and bachelorette party and are instead organising a joint bash.

The 23-year-old will marry football star Hank, 26, on June 27 at the Playboy mansion.

Kendra lived in the mansion with Playboy boss Hugh Hefner for five years until she left last summer along with other girlfriends Holly Madison, 29, and Bridget Marquardt, 35.

Talking about a bachelor/bachelorette party, she said: “We don’t need it.”

She added: “We don’t need the last night of freedom thing. If we are apart, we are going to be on our cell phones like: ‘What the f**k are you doing? Is there any a** in your face?”

Hefner, 83, is now living with three new girlfriends, Crystal Harris and twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon.

Kendra said they are on the guest list for her wedding. She said: “They’re cool. I like them.”

The pair haven’t even walked down the aisle but Kendra is already thinking babies. She said: “I plan on having them very soon.”

She added: “We want to be young parents and be able to chase around our kids and run and coach our kids. So, very soon.”

Playboy boss Hugh Hefner has denied rumours he wants to get back with ex-girlfriend Holly Madison.

Reports claimed that Hefner, 83, was pining for Madison, who left the mansion last year along with other girlfriends Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson.

He is now dating Crystal Harris and twins Karissa and Kristine Shannon.

Hefner told E! Online: “The notion that I would want her [Holly] back as a girlfriend is bizarre. I am now in one of the best relationships in memory with Crystal Harris and the twins. I’m not going to screw it up with former girlfriends. I would not trade Crystal Harris for anybody else in the world. And then this thing comes out and today is Crystal’s birthday… it’s ridiculous.”

The founder of Playboy admitted to the press recently that he believes in love at first sight. In defense of his argument, Hugh Hefner told the story of how he and Kendra Wilkinson got to be together: “I think it’s possible to fall in love with somebody across a crowded room. I fell in love with Kendra by looking at her picture and meeting her once at my birthday party. In the days after the party, I asked her to move into the mansion – she did and it lasted for five happy years. That’s more than most people get out of marriages. I’ve been married – I know!” Right… you’d think that a man like Hugh Hefner, with all his years of experience, all of his many, many years of experience would know by now the difference between love and attraction… or does that distinction not exist in Hugh Hefner’s Playboy Mansion where everybody loves everybody… as frenquently as possible.

There is no divorce in the offing for Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and his second wife Kimberly Conrad. This belief was further strengthened when 1989 Playmate of the Year Conrad returned to Hef’s mansion recently. Hef and Conrad have been estranged for several years prior to Conrad’s visit to the Playboy mansion. She said she does not really care about the companions of her husband who actually try to avoid her. Conrad confirmed she only visits the mansion for Family Night every Tuesday when no other bunnies are hopping around.
Conrad did not only showed up in the mansion during one of Hef’s movie nights which was well-attended by a lot of hotties but she even spent the night hanging out with Hef and his other beauties. Insiders say the special connection between the two is still there and no one can deny that when you look at them. The couple, who have two teenage sons, have been separated for almost ten years but never divorced. This reality has been an irritant for Holly Madison who intends to marry Hef. There is another contender to the throne though even if Bridget, Holly and Kendra have left the mansion and that is Crystal Harris who has moved into the master bedroom.
