| PUT HER BACK IN F*CKING JAIL, ALREADY!! Lindsay Lohan ?saw? the woman and childcrossing the road before she clipped the stroller with her car, according to another eyewitness. After RadarOnline.com first reported that the troubled star had hit the stroller with her highpowered car, Lohan denied any knowledge, saying ?I don?t know what you are talking about.? But now, another onlooker has come forward to confirm the event and says Lohan saw the woman and child crossing the road, but did not bother to stop. EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Lindsay Lohan Involved In Hit-And-Run; Clips Baby In Stroller - Eyewitnesses Claim ?I pulled up next to Lindsay after I saw her knock the stroller,? said Austin Visschedyk, a photographer who was on the scene. “I said; Whoa, what the f*** are you doing?” Lohan was momentarily speechless, according to Austin, before she replied: ?Well, I saw them, but they didn?t move out of the way.? RadarOnline.com had the exclusive interview with the first eyewitness, Brayan Jaime who described the chain of events. PHOTOS: Lindsay Lohan Parties Post Rehab “There was a woman pushing a kid in the stroller, maybe a two or three-year-old, crossing the street,” he said. “Lindsay took the red light and hit the stroller. It wasn’t super hard, but she made impact and hit them.? “Lindsay pulled to the right, stopped for two seconds, and then just kept going.? PHOTOS: Celebs Who Have Served Time in Jail Despite conflicting reports that Lohan was going a mere one-mile-an-hour when the incident took place, Jaime says she was going substantially faster. ?She was going at least 10-15 miles per hour,? said Jaime. ?It wasn?t one mile an hour, that?s for sure.? In fact, Lohan ? who caused the four-wheeled stroller to tip up onto one wheel ? even scared a man standing 10 feet away. PHOTOS: Lindsay Lohan’s Offensive Manicure ?There was a guy standing on the corner who jumped back when it happened,? recalled Austin. ?He was clearly scared.? Lohan was driving the Maserati she picked up the day she was released from rehab. But according to sources, she has now returned the car following the accident which happened Wednesday afternoon.

| * Brian McKnight has responded to allegations that a porn star was raped in his home while he was out of town, RadarOnline.com has learned. The singer confirms that the allegation was made but insists it was thoroughly investigated by police who did not arrest the accused man. The allegation became public when the websiteMedia Takeout reported that porn star Alana Evans has posted on her Twitter page that she’s been raped by a man at McKnight’s home in 2008, and that the singer’s two teenage sons had held her down while the assault occurred. PHOTOS: Stars Who Have Appeared In Both Adult & Mainstream Films Evans has since closed her Twitter page to outsiders but according to Media Takeout’s report, she claimed the LAPD did nothing to help her because of her profession. Now McKnight, the Grammy-winning singer and talk show host, is speaking out. “We take the accusations made by Ms. Evans very seriously,” McKnight says in a statement to RadarOnline.com. “I was made aware of a party at my house in my absence in December of 2008. I was in NYC, and both my boys (ages 15 & 17 at that time) were at the house with some friends. I can confirm that Ms. Evans was in fact at the house, as I discovered she provided some of the liquor. PHOTOS: Sexy Stars Who Have Been Arrested “Being as I was not home at the time, I cannot speak absolutely regarding all the events of the evening, however my sons did inform me that due to Ms. Evans level of intoxication, that they placed her alone in a bedroom so she could “sleep it off.” The next morning Ms. Evans stayed and socialized at the house until approximately 2PM.” Evans says the man who raped her is Nicholas Hayes, and McKnight acknowledges that allegation. PHOTOS: Celebs Who Have Done Nude Scenes “Two days after the party, Ms. Evans contacted the LAPD,” McKnight continued in the statement. “The police came to the house and questioned the entire family and Mr. Hayes with the full cooperation of the McKnight family. Mr. Hayes retained a lawyer, and cooperated in a month long investigation. The police concluded that no rape had occurred, and no charges were ever filed. This information is all part of the official police report. “Rape is a very serious matter, and not something we take lightly. I truly hope that Ms. Evans was not discriminated by the police because of her profession. I believe that the police concluded simply that no crime had taken place. “That being said,’if I ever had knowledge of such a vile and reprehensible act by anyone whether they were friends or family, I would never work to ‘protect’ that person. The statement that Mr. Hayes has been banned from my home is not true. ” He signs off: “Thank you, Brian, Brian Jr & Niko McKnight.” Article Here | ||

| Larry Flynt’s Hustler Club in the French Quarter is claiming that its neighbor, the Utopia Night Club, is threatening to closed down a fire alley in between the two buildings, thus forcing the city of New Orleans to revoke the strip club’s license, according to documents filed in Orleans Parish Civil District Court. Attorneys for H.D.V. No. 1 LLC, which owns the property at 225 Bourbon Street where the Hustler Club is located, filed a suit for declaratory judgment and injunctive relief on Aug. 20, seeking a restraining order against 227 Bourbon St. Inc. and the city. At issue is a fire exit at the Hustler Club, which opens to an alley adjacent to Utopia. Plaintiffs claim that Utopia’s owner, Kishore Motwani, has threatened the owners of the Hustler Club with closing the fire exit that leads into the alleyway and thus putting the Hustler Club in direct violation of New Orleans fire codes. The suit also claims that the city of New Orleans, through the Office of Safety and Permits, has threatened to revoke Hustler Club’s liquor license. Plaintiffs claim that revoking the license “would be an arbitrary and capricious action which ignores the established due process.” Plaintiffs also claim any revoking of the liquor license is a “violation of the consent judgment entered into on April 30, 2001,” but the listed exhibit with the ruling was missing from the suit filed. Records from that suit could not be located before the clerk’s office closed on Thursday. Orleans Parish Judge Sidney Cade signed a restraining order the day the suit was filed, preventing the city or 227 Bourbon St. from taking any action that would affect the alley in question. The fire exit and alley has been the subject of three previous suits dating back to 1993. In all cases, judges ruled in favor of granting 225 Bourbon St. access to the alleyway adjacent to 227 Bourbon St. in the event of a fire or emergency. The plaintiffs assert that they have never needed to use the alleyway, but that 227 Bourbon St. has nonetheless placed garbage cans and other obstacles in the alley. The plaintiffs claimed that Motwani “has used or is using 227 Bourbon Street, Inc. as his alter ego, ignoring corporate formalities an that he is acting without appropriate corporate authorization.” Plaintiffs also claim that Motwani tried to charge “$540,000 and $5,000 per month” to provide access to the alley. A hearing has been set for Sept. 7. Plaintiffs seek to have their fire exit labeled as private property and granted access to the alley in accordance with city fire codes. Gretna attorney Peter Fanning and New Orleans attorney Gilbert Buras Jr. are representing H.D.V. New Orleans attorneys William Wessel and Charles Ciacco are representing 227 Bourbon St. and Motwani.

| * Natasha Kizmet?s life has unfolded like a female version of Sacha Baron Cohen?s Borat and Bruno,though with more topless scenes. Natasha came to America with a thick Uzbekistan accent, a dream of making it in show business, and a bombshell figure?all of which got her into some precarious situations. Along the way she produced an acclaimed belly dancing show and modeled for a topless website. Whileinterviewing pornstars at a Las Vegas convention, producer Michael Drumm saw something special in her improvisational skills and asked, ?Why don?t we just make a movie about you?? What resulted was Natasha Kizmet the Movie, a blend of mocumentary and biography. I spoke with Natasha as she prepares to come to St. Pete for the Nomadic Tendencies Film Festat the Beach Theatre. Below is an excerpt from our full interview, which you can listen to for free below. Shawn Alff: How much of the film is based on true events? Natasha Kizmet: 70% of the movie is true. It?s kind of my biography of being in the United States. It was so funny because one of my friends, she seen the movie and then she says, ?Natasha, I?m worried about you. Did you find some job? Do you want to work with me in hospital.? SA: You have a string of bad jobs in the movie to support yourself. Did you ever resort to stripping in real life? NK: I have done a little bit because I needed to understand the job. I haven?t stripped professionally? I teach people how to belly dance, and one of my students is a stripper? When she told me she was an entertainer, I was shocked. I was like ?No way, Jesus Christ. How can you do this job.? But actually there is nothing wrong with this job. Sometimes people misunderstand this job. They think it?s escort, or it?s whorehouse, and it?s not. A lot of women with a lot of different lives come there because somebody needs to go to school or somebody needs to support her family or boyfriend. It?s very interesting world. A lot of different cultures there. SA: Did Ron Jeremy even know he was going to be in your movie or was your scene with him improvised? NK: We didn?t plan to have Ron Jeremy in the movie at all? At the porn convention Michael Drumm says, oh look, Ron Jeremy, you have to get him in the movie. I?m like ?How the hell am I going to get him in the movie?? So, I?m kind of circling him like shark? He waves me over and there was huge line and he forgot about all this line? He was very nice. He didn?t touch me or try to do anything. He asks, ?Who are you, are youpornstar? And I?m like, ?Not yet and I hope I never be?? I say we?re actually here filming a movie and I would really like you to be in it. He says ?Okay. Not a problem,? and he give me his business card and this other card? This second card had his hotel room number? SA: You brought your 70-year-old father to Miami while you were filming at the Exxxotica porn convention? NK: We brought him there by day because he never seen it and he take a couple pictures with all the sexy girls and he was very, how you say, he actually got satisfied. He was really happy. SA: Are you excited about attending the Nomadic Tendencies Film Fest with your movie? NK: Yes, it will be great. I would love to to see my fans. I love to interact with people and be right in the middle of it. Be center of attention. And I?ll make sure to wear very, very, sexy nice dress. Yes. Article Here | ||

| BERLIN (Reuters Life!) - To sweeten their first day at primary school German children are normally given a cardboard cone filled with sweets, but schoolchildren in Essen this year opened their cones to find pens which project erotic images. Children attending the Adolf Reichwein School in the northwestern German city were handed cones containing the pens by members of the German Communist Party, according to the school’s headmaster. Angry parents who discovered that the pens given to their six-year-old children could project erotic images of women informed the headmaster. In a press release the German Communist Party stated that it had purchased the pens from a discount store, which had said the pens lit up at the push of a button. “The German Communist Party deeply regrets what has happened and is outraged that this kind of thing, which borders on pornography, can be purchased in normal shops,” it said, adding that its lawyers were now investigating whether the vendors could be prosecuted. The party has offered to exchange the pens for something more suitable for children. Article Here | ||

| NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - If the new “Date Night” DVD had sold only 25,000 copies, there would have been hell to pay for studio executives. But for Steven Hirsch — or anyone else in the adult entertainment business, for that matter — that figure represents a blockbuster. The founder of Vivid Entertainment, the leading purveyor of pornographic videos, has built a business estimated to pull in annually as much as a $100 million slice of a $13 billion industry (compared to mainstream box office of $10.6 billion). The key to thriving even as free online porn services eat away at the DVD market is being nimble enough to adapt principles familiar to the rest of the showbiz world: celebrity scandal and superhero tentpoles. Laurence Fishburne’s daughter Montana’s sex tape and “Batman: a XXX Porn Parody” — both from Vivid — are vying with each other for top-selling adult DVD of the year. “We have done celebrities for many years but have more recently acquired more than ever before as public appetite has increased,” Hirsch told The Hollywood Reporter. “The days of generic adult films are gone because there are many, many websites for stuff like that.” Vivid was founded in 1984 and got a big kick from the Pam Anderson and Tommy Lee honeymoon tape “Pam & Tommy Lee: Hardcore & Uncensored,” which was first released in 1998 and became not just an icon of celebrity exposure but also is believed to have sold more copies than any other celebrity sex release with the possible exception of Paris Hilton’s. It also made Vivid the one to beat. “It’s the one adult brand — besides Hustler maybe — that is most entrenched in people’s minds,” said Paul Fishbein, president of Adult Video News Media Network, which publishes industry trade AVN. Since then, Vivid has aggressively positioned itself to acquire celebrity fare — and the reputation has made it a magnet for celebrities shopping tapes themselves. While industry sales and financials don’t get tracked like box office or DVD sales in Hollywood do, Vivid gets more adult video shelf space than any of its peers and routinely sweeps the annual AVN Awards, the Oscars of the adult industry. Hirsch has been a leader in the mainstreaming of porn, emphasizing quality by shooting on film rather than video; introducing more tasteful packaging; and expanding the brand by stamping Vivid on makeup, intimate accessories, nightclubs and other products. Hirsch’s business instincts continue to pay off. The man Forbes once dubbed “The Porn King” in May acquired and released “Kendra Exposed” a sex tape featuring Kendra Wilkinson of “The Girls Next Door” and “Kendra” reality TV fame that wasn’t originally shot for public consumption but is on track to become one of the best-selling adult DVDs of the year. And in August, Vivid topped things off by making a TMZ-fueled splash — the celebrity site is one of Hirsch’s favorite digital buzz engines — with its release of the “Montana Fishburne” DVD. It has reached the top of the AVN sales chart, sold out of its first pressing of 25,000 DVDs at about $45 a pop — requiring a second pressing of the same number — and also could become the year’s best-seller, according to industry watchers. “With Montana, we felt she had a famous last name and is a beautiful girl,” Hirsch said. “And it could launch her career.” Not every celebrity tape is of interest. When you listen to Hirsch, he uses words like “quality,” “tasteful” and “looking good” in describing what he looks for. As Vivid “greenlights” acquisitions or productions of celebrity content, key filters in mind include good looks, a recognizable name and production values. That is why Hirsch has in recent days publicly emphasized, again via TMZ, that he wants to see footage of “The Hills” star Spencer Pratt’s tape with Heidi Montag to vet how interesting it would be for Vivid. “Only companies with deep pockets get to play this celebrity game,” said Alec Helmy, president and publisher of XBiz Premiere, an information provider and research firm focused on the adult industry. “Vivid is the top name in this space now, and they have positioned themselves aggressively to (get a look at most content and) also get future releases.” Getting desirable content is key as the adult business — which films or produces nearly 90 percent of its product in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles and has suffered because of free Web content, sluggish DVD sales and the recession just like Hollywood. Fishbein said coming up with estimates is nearly impossible. After all, industry players typically are privately held and famously secretive, some parts of the business are illegal and therefore hidden, and there is no tracking service a la Nielsen in mainstream media. But the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corp. issued an estimate five years ago that put adult industry revenue at $12.6 billion a year. Miller said he has seen estimates from about $8 billion-$13 billion in recent years. The fast decline in porn DVD sales, which Fishbein compares to the Napsterization of the music industry, has made revenue estimates an extra-fast-moving target. Miller estimated that adult DVD sales might have fallen as much as 25 percent since 2005. “We have seen DVD sales decline much as Hollywood has,” said Kym Kysar, brand and product manager at Pink Visual, which distributes adult content in digital and traditional form. “Adult video stores are closing just as the Blockbusters, Hollywood Videos and Movie Gallerys of the world are closing.” Joe Francis, creator of the “Girls Gone Wild” series, and Hustler founder Larry Flynt even came up with the idea to ask Congress for a $5 billion porn bailout last year. (Request ignored.) One key reason why celebrity releases might save the industry is that celebs — whether A-list or B — can broaden the potential appeal of what typically is a very niche business. And Hirsch said more women and casual fans tend to buy celebrity tapes, which generally helps them outsell other fare. “In this day and age with TV and Internet … you feel like you know these celebrities, so it’s more exciting to see them nude,” said Jim McBride, who as CEO of MrSkin.com — which aggregates female nude pictures and clips from the worlds of film and TV — has made a business out of celebrities. The average adult industry tape sells only several hundred to a few thousand copies but is very cheap to produce with multiples of $100,000 being considered a really high budget. Industry observers said no one in the adult space likes talking about what they spend making celebrity content, but they tend to be more expensive than regular productions. One source said videos featuring particularly popular stars can be worth in the hundreds of thousands or even low millions in the cases of major names. For example, Vivid offered former Miss California Carrie Prejean $1 million to star in one of its movies. (She declined.) But sales of celebrity releases also can be in the tens of thousands — multiples of more standard fare. Miller estimates that the most popular celebrity-fueled adult videos such as “Pam & Tommy Lee,” Paris Hilton’s uncensored 2004 tape (from Red Light District) and the 2007 leaked tape of Kim Kardashian and R&B singer Ray J — for which Vivid paid Kardashian $5 million in a settlement — have sold hundreds of thousands of units, the first two possibly more than 1 million. While there are no fixed retail prices, Hirsch said the Fishburne tape generally is available for $39-$49. Using the $45 midway price tag, its first DVD run raised more than $1 million in revenue. Vivid.com also can benefit from exciting big-name content that creates buzz as the site might attract or retain people who pay $29.95 per month for subscriptions. For reality TV stars, younger celebs and aspiring actors, Hirsch has opened new doors. “It’s gone from moneymaking and being a taboo to a type of branding,” said one industry source. “The media and consumers love this stuff. Paris didn’t lose anything, and Kim Kardashian escalated her fame.” Some say the blurring lines of fame also has helped such porn stars as Riley Steele (”Piranha 3D”) and Sasha Grey (”Entourage”) follow Jenna Jameson in crossing over into the mainstream. Hirsch not only likes to buy films featuring celebrities but also gives star treatment to full-time adult performers by signing women to one-year deals with multiyear extension options to make them so-called Vivid Girls. The approach recalls the old Hollywood studio system of the 1930s and ’40s that tried to lock in longer-term relationships. “We always felt if we invest in a girl and do the marketing and promotion, and people like her, we want people to come back to us to see more of her,” Hirsch said. “People know that when they get one of our movies they are going to get a certain level of quality — and quality, beautiful girls.” But Hirsch warns that comparing the sales for a Vivid Girl tape with a celebrity tape can be like comparing apples and oranges. “People have more access to them more regularly, so (many) of their DVDs tend to sell fewer copies than the one tape of a celebrity,” he said. Hirsch also is continuously looking to innovate and diversify his business. “We have Vivid Alt featuring girls (often with more piercings, tattoos and other things that deserve the label ‘alternative’) who are not Vivid Girls, and we do educational releases with our Vivid Ed line,” he said. A few months ago, Hirsch added what he expects to be a major new specialty labels: a superheroes parody business. “That will be a big opportunity and opens up new opportunities” with casual audiences, he said. “We released ‘Batman XXX: A Porn Parody’ (spoofing the 1960s TV show) in May from director Axel Braun, who is one of the best. It’s done great and is one of the best-selling titles of the year.” Vivid instilled a sense of a production quality by, for example, hiring the original TV show’s costume designers, which observers argue helped it stand out against cheaper parody productions. The (clean) YouTube trailer for the “Batman” adult spoof has recorded more than 915,000 views. Next up is “Superman XXX: A Porn Parody,” which features Ryan Driller as Superman along such performers as Lexi Belle, Kristina Rose, Randy Spears, Evan Stone and Dale DaBone. “As usual, I’m trying to re-create the look and feel of the source material and have some fun with it without offending the fans,” “Superman XXX” director Braun said last week. “But while the ‘Batman’ TV show was shot in studio with a relatively low budget, Richard Donner’s (1978 ‘Superman’) movie was a huge production with plenty of exteriors and groundbreaking special effects, so it will be a lot more challenging, and definitely more interesting.” There will be more spoofs to come, including such TV shows as “Law & Order” and “The Addams Family” and movies including “Grease,” “A Clockwork Orange” and even “The Godfather.” Article Here | ||

| * It?s not so much a ?scandal? as it is a constant rumor that John Travolta likes to play with peen that isn?t his. National Enquirer is pointing the flamboyant finger at Travolta again. After he was photographed kissing on his male companion in 2006 before taking off on his plane. Then in 2007 he kissed on Kirk Douglas. (Kirk looked terrified.) Now, the gay rumors are reheating as author Robert Randolph reveals the not-so-secret ?underground secret world of celebrity gay spa sex? in his new book, ?You?ll Never Spa in This Town Again.? Rob claims that John makes Tiger Woods look like a ?boy scout.? ?I met John in 1998, after he had married Kelly. I believe the marriage is a total fraud because John is totally into guys and has been having sex with them behind Kelly?s back for years. He came on to me a number of times. I always turned him down. But there was always some guy who was willing to have sex with him. And John didn?t stop cheating on Kelly after either of their children was born. John?s a cheating dog. It?s just been wrong, because his wife seems like such a sweet woman.? This Randolph motherfella also passed a lie detector test for the Enquirer?s interview. However, I am guessing it wasn?t Xenu approved. ?[John?s] secret gay life is one of Hollywood?s worst kept secrets. He blatantly cruises guys, and doesn?t seem to care who sees him. I saw him with his lover and he couldn?t get enough.? I doubt Kelly Preston is completely in the dark about his ?spa? adventures. I mean the man has horrid plugs and seems to have misplaced his neck. She is still the hotness so I am guessing she is has a ?masseuse? to relieve ?tension headaches.? Article Here | ||

| * Playboy (PLA) has a new marketing director, Lorna M. Donohoe. While turning the bunny-brand around is, on paper, a dream job, she will probably be thwarted by owner Hugh Hefner?s suicidal strategy for his company. It?s old news that Playboy loses money, or that its magazine circulation is in freefall, or thatnobody pays to see pornography anymore. Clearly, Playboy is in need of a complete restructuring if it is to survive. Its future ? if it were in the hands of someone who knew what they were doing ? is probably as a much smaller, profitable brand with a vibrant licensing arm, nestled inside a portfolio of other adult media businesses with which it can cross-pollinate. It?s not clear that Hefner can see that, however, which is why Hefner has got to go. Unfortunately, he doesn?t want to. Instead, Hef has come up with a plan that ? if history is any guide ? will hasten the death of his once-great brand. Let?s review the current status of the Playboy empire, according to its most recent quarterly earnings report. Playboy?s revenues are shrinking along with its subscriber base. Its administrative expenses are steady or increasing. It has laid off dozens of employees in the last year. (It?s not clear whether the layoff numbers given are cumulative or overlapping; if the former, then 227 workers have gone in the last few months.) And Playboy is being sued byDirectTV for an alleged violation of its most-favored-nation status. (Yes, even though pay-per-view porn is possibly the easiest business in which to make a profit, Hefner is somehow screwing it up.) Playboy?s new media offerings are a desperate scattershot of headscratching ideas. There?s aniPad app with no nudity (yes, Playboy is expecting you to just read it for the articles). And a video game called Poisonville, about a fictional U.S. city ?where crime and corruption rule the streets?: Players must complete a series of missions in order to counteract corruption, regain respect, and rebuild their reputations. The one slight difference here, according to Playboy, is that players will be encounter ?beautiful, Playboy-caliber women.? It gets worse. Playboy has also launched what it seriously claims is a safe-for-work site, titled TheSmokingJacket.com. It is not safe for work. A sample offering includes ?Boner Jams,? a video of bikini-wearing women interspersed with stuff exploding. It?s hard to insult the intelligence of a porn consumer, but this site manages it. At least The Smoking Jacket has a coherent mission. Playboy.com, which ought to be the center of the Playboy brand, is currently a mish-mash of unrelated stuff. Sure, there?s nude pics of Kim Kardashian. But then there?s a Q&A with George Clooney. And a golf section. And a massively detailed page dedicated to Hef?s reviews of classic movies such as The African Queen and Key Largo. Who is this targeted at? Luckily for the company and its shareholders, a white knight has emerged. FriendFinder Networks has offered to pay $6.25 a share for Playboy?s outstanding stock (currently trading at $5.11 up from $4-ish before the offer). Unlike Playboy, FFN is has a vibrant online business in ?adult? dating. It also owns Penthouse, which is valuable not for its magazine but for its chain of strip clubs. In other words, FFN has done everything that Playboy has not to survive in the 21st Century. FFN has also generously offered to let Hefner retain editorial control of the Playboy magazine ? currently one of the least interesting parts of Playboy ? and the Playboy Mansion. It?s a perfect exit opportunity for Hef. But Hefner owns 69.5 percent of Playboy?s Class A common stock and 27.7 percent of its Class B stock. So he doesn?t have to take FFN?s offer if he doesn?t want to. Instead, Hefner has proposed buying all the stock he doesn?t own for $5.50 per share, and taking it private again. He?s already told the board that he intends to ignore FFN, even though the offer would make him (and his minority shareholders) rich. It?s an astonishing triumph of raw ego over common sense (see page 16): Mr. Hefner advises the Board that out of his concerns for, amongst other matters, the Company?s brand, the editorial direction of Playboy magazine and the Company?s legacy, he is not interested in any sale or merger of the Company, selling his shares to any third party ? This is business suicide. There is no way Hefner is qualified to turn Playboy around in an era when mobile and digital content will be king. He?s had more than a decade to adjust to new media, and he hasn?t. Here?s what he told New York magazine about how he sees the future of the media business: I hope that books and magazines and newspapers will continue in some form. I think younger generations maybe don?t read as much, and I think we?re the poorer for it. And young people don?t have as much of a sense of history ? and if you don?t have a sense of who you were, then you?re not going to have a good sense of who you are. It?s no wonder he?s being sued by his own shareholders, and that other companies that have looked at Playboy as an acquisition have walked away. Hefner is old. He could die any day. Assuming he survives the transaction he?s proposed, his obituary will describe him as the man who founded ? and then destroyed ? Playboy. So here?s the worst part: If Hef dies before the transaction, that would actually be the best outcome for the company, because it would allow his heirs and creditors to do what Hefner refuses to.
