I saw this at Datalounge. Here's the full text if you don't want to have to sit through 10 pages of click bait. Hugh Hefner, who turned 90 years young in 2016, considers himself the leader of a sexual revolution. In 1953, he pioneered Playboy magazine, creating a multimillion dollar multimedia brand. Though there's nothing revolutionary about objectifying women, Hefner did keep feminists in business and make a fortune behaving very badly through the years. Brace yourself because when it comes to Hefner's dirtiest decisions, we're about to bare it all. One of Hefner's earliest dirt-bag moves was screwing over sexy sweetheart Marilyn Monroe. In 1953, the Gentlemen Prefer Blondes star became Playboy magazine's first "playmate of the month." For Monroe, this was not the honor Hefner chalks it up to be. Reportedly without her permission, he acquired and printed a photo from a nude calendar the actress had posed for in the past. Monroe was paid $50 at the original photo shoot. Hef paid the calendar makers $500 for the rights. According to Highsnobiety, that debut issue of Playboy sold between 50,000 and 65,000 copies (at 50 cents a pop). Those were huge numbers at the time, so Monroe essentially put Hef on the map and lined his pockets. Monroe and Hefner never even met. "She was gone, sadly, before I came out [to California]," he told the Times of India. Here's another uncomfortable factoid: Hefner supposedly adores Monroe so much that he's planning to encroach upon her peaceful rest for all eternity. The Guardian says Hefner purchased the mausoleum right smack dab next to hers at the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Los Angeles for $75,000 in 1992. In 2009, Hefner posted a tweet that set the water cooler to boiling: "Marge Simpson has a surprise for her fans in the November issue of Playboy." That's right, in 2009 the magazine decided to put its first objectified cartoon on the cover in hopes of attracting younger audiences. "Marge Simpson is the quintessential girl next door who stole our hearts 20 years ago and has held them captive ever since," Hefner told CNN. "We were delighted to learn she wanted to grace the pages of our magazine. Her pictorial is truly stunning." Do you think Hef asked Simpson for her blessing first? One of the 1987 Playboy cover girls was Wheel of Fortune's one and only Vanna White. Based on her squeaky clean image on the game show, this may sound implausible, but don't put anything past Hefner. Like Monroe, a young and cash-strapped White had done a lingerie shoot to make ends meet, and Hefner later bought those images. "I wasn't on [the cover] because I wanted to be," White told The Wendy Williams Show. She even asked Hefner, who she considered a friend at the time, to refrain. "I said, 'Hef, if you put me on the cover, my career could be ruined…They did it anyway." Fortunately, that spread did not undermine White's career, but it put the kibosh on her friendship with Hefner. Holly Madison reigned supreme as one of Hefner's live-in girlfriends from 2001 until 2009, when she decided to ditch her bunny ears and cotton-ball tail. In 2015, she released a tell-all memoir titled Rabbit Hole: Curious Adventures and Cautionary Tales of a Former Playboy Bunny. In the best-seller, she claimed Hefner attempted to bribe her to remain at the Playboy Mansion by intentionally leaving his will out for her to see. According to Page Six, Heff planned to bequeath her $3 million if she stayed. Bribing a lady to stay at your house is pretty lame, right? This infamous oasis at the Playboy mansion has been the location of many a star-studded event, but apparently, the Playboy grotto is dirty in more ways than one. After a fundraiser in 2011, many attendees fell seriously ill. According to the Los Angeles Times, health authorities said the bacteria legionella pneumophila were identified at a whirlpool spa at the bunny den; following the party, 69 people fell ill on the same day. A Playboy spokeswoman declined to comment on that story. The Girls Next Door reality show, starring Hefner and his live-in girlfriends, debuted on E! in 2005. While the show's biggest draws were playmates Madison, Kendra Wilkinson, and Bridget Marquardt, the roommates were reportedly not paid for participating on the hit show. According to GQ Magazine, Wilkinson once asked a producer for compensation. His response? "You. Are. Replaceable…This is not a show about the girls, it's about Hugh Hefner." In case you were wondering how Hef keeps his bunnies underfoot, that's how. The girls may not have received compensation for their reality television appearances, but they were paid to live in the mansion: $1,000 weekly and all the plastic surgery they wanted. However, this weekly grand was not direct deposited into their bank accounts. According to former Playmate Izabella St. James, who wrote Bunny Tales: Behind Closed Doors at the Playboy Mansion (via Cosmopolitan), "Every Friday morning we had to go to Hef's room, wait while he picked up all the dog poo off the carpet—and then ask for our allowance: a thousand dollars counted out in crisp hundred-dollar bills from a safe in one of his bookcases. We all hated this process. Hef would always use the occasion to bring up anything he wasn't happy about in the relationship. Most of the complaints were about the lack of harmony among the girlfriends—or your lack of sexual participation in the 'parties' he held in his bedroom. If we'd been out of town for any reason and missed one of the official 'going out' nights [when Hefner liked to parade his girls at nightclubs] he wouldn't want to give us the allowance. He used it as a weapon." A woman who claims Bill Cosby sexually assaulted her at the Playboy Mansion in 2008 added Hefner to the lawsuit, claiming the Playboy kingpin knew about Cosby's alleged predatory behavior but did nothing to protect her, reported TMZ in May 2016. According to the victim, it was Hefner who introduced her to Cosby. The suit alleges Hefner had a habit of inviting "young and impressionable and possibly minor children to his residence and providing alcoholic beverages." According to Business Insider, Cosby was a frequent flyer at the mansion. Hefner issued a statement in 2014 that seems to simultaneously support and oppose the comedian. "Bill Cosby has been a good friend for many years and the mere thought of these allegations is truly saddening. I would never tolerate this kind of behavior, regardless of who was involved." And that, dear reader, is all the Hefner we can tolerate at any one time. http://www.nickiswift.com/14988/disturbing-things-revealed-hugh-hefner/?utm_source=zergnet.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=zergnet_1812749&utm_content=5 |

BHM, who I think is from the Chi-town area, also mentioned this. I think he is more just perpetually horny and would fuck warm fruit. I've been to the Mansion twice for work events. Very run down. Never saw him but lots of whores working the room. There's a pix of him from the 70s "receiving" over at DL. Nice bush. Doable. |

I read once long ago that every rug in the mansion was soaked to the max with dog piss and that animal feces was everywhere. |

One of the worst things he's ever done is marry that gold digging dog he's currently with. |

I'll bet the guy who bought the house and agreed to let Hefner live there until he dies, is getting a bit antsy. Like Pat Robertson who was just hospitalized for falling off a horse and my kween, Miss Zsa Zsa, these old coots just seem to live on and on.

Heterosexuality is not normal, just common. |
