Crystal Harris calls off wedding to Hugh Hefner.

[Rey C.]

Let's assume she really had problems with marrying Hefner and the Playboy lifestyle and she didn't go through with it because she knew she'd be unhappy. That makes her a dumb bitch?

No, we don't know if she's dumb or smart. I don't think this (by itself) says much about her intelligence.

But if a woman marries a rich man for money most of you will say that makes her a whore. Talk about double standards.

Well, there are a lot of terms for that. Some more vulgar than others. But rather than tip-toe around it, I think it's better (more honest) to just call it what it is: it was to be a "kept" relationship. It doesn't make either one of them a bad person. As long as both parties are cool with it, who are we to judge? Where it gets sort of vile and distasteful is when it goes the way of that skank from the Real Housewives of OC show (Gretchen something), who "married" the old fellow who was battling cancer (Jeff Beitzel)... while she screwed around on him. I didn't know him - and I don't watch that show. But an old friend of mine has been a fixture at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, just as Jeff Beitzel was. So I got to hear all the juicy gossip about the dying gearhead and the saucy tart. Jeff had made a fair amount of money in his life in the automotive engineering field - very smart guy! But age and poor health were catching up with him. So he (somehow) wound up with this ditzy, garish girl, who was half his age... who had probably less than half his IQ (from what I'm told, she's dumber than a bag of hair). Like Hefner, Jeff was vain enough and superficial enough that he just wanted something pretty on his arm. But unlike Heff, he didn't have his attorney "approve" the relationship (so she got money that could/should have gone to his kids), and he didn't just give her too much leash, he didn't even put a leash on that hound dog. But Heff has been around the block a few dozen times. He had his lawyer craft a pretty short leash. I assume this girl didn't like the length of the leash... so she left his yard.

No double standard that I can see. As these kinds of relationships go, this one was probably one of the more honest propositions. And if it didn't work for one or the other, best that they just go their own way. He'll find another candy girl and she'll find another sugar daddy. They'll both be OK, I'm sure.

So I cross my fngers and hope to marry Danielle Harris.

 

[Icewater Jones]

She decided not to marry someone she honestly didn't really love, and was not compatible with her. At the end of the day, for whatever the minor details are, this is for the best.

What I find sad is that Hef threw any chances he had at a healthy, loving, monogamus relationship away when he decided to carry on with this lifestyle. Now, he's old and heartbroken, and looking for someone who truly loves him. He knows good and well none of these blonde 20 somethings really love or even know him well. I'm sure nowadays he keeps an engagement ring in the pocket of that smoking jacket, waiting for some young hotty to act like she really gives a damn about him.

Sad.

Poor Hugh. My thoughts are with you sir. Be strong. Now & for always. Be strong.

But if a woman marries a rich man for money most of you will say that makes her a whore. Talk about double standards.

First off, marriages of convenience doesn't make anyone a whore. Marriages based off convenience tend to work out better than marriages based on love. And FYI, most marriages end in divorce, so marrying for "happiness" is hardly foolproof. Love isn't the be all and end all to life.

And yes, she's a dumb bitch for MANY reasons.

1) She happily moved into the mansion knowing EXACTLY what goes on there and how the lifestyle is. She had the chance to call this thing off for months, but waited until just days beforehand, when she knew exactly what her life would be like. She wasted undoubtedly HUNDREDS of thousands (if not millions) of money that was spent on the wedding preparations that will never get back. -DUMB.

2) She claims she'll have a better chance at her music career if she's single and away from the mansion. Honey can't even carry a tune, and won't have the exposure and influence of being married to a celebrity and icon who obviously has ins and outs to the music business. She gave up the best thing she could have for her "career" -DUMB.

3) And I'm going to go back to the money thing. You live with a man, fuck a man, LOVE the man (she's stated that she'll always love Hef) AND by marrying him, essentially ensure that you and your family are going to be taken care of probably for the rest of your life? UM, who would turn that shit down? Who would walk away from it? No marriage is perfect and everyone HAS to compromise and deal with things they'd rather not, so seeing Hef flirt with the ladies a bit (especially after mentioned that she's used to that shit anyways) before he inevitably gets so old that he doesn't have the energy anymore...yeah. DUMB. She had it made, she was in the position that millions of women would dream to be in and she gave it up and in the process, humiliated the man she claimed to love, fucked over everyone who was working so hard on that wedding....and now her bank account is going to dry up! DUMB!!!!

Didn't she have a talk with Holly, Kendra and Bridget??
Foolish young lady....I respect her hustle though; got that centerfold and bounced!:clap:

IMO, Hugh Hefner has led a superficial life (good or bad, it's been based on "plastic"). I would say most of the girls around him now, and for the last however many decades, have been pretty superficial people too. Like I said, that doesn't make them bad human beings or anything, but they are what they are. I doubt any of them would know love if it slapped them three times in the mouth, Trinity style. If he lost all of his money, would this Crystal person still "love" him? If she got in a car accident and wound up with a big scar down her face, would he still "love" her? Puuuulease! Superficial people are drawn to superficial things and other superficial people. And once the good times are over, they beat a path for the door. Unless you expect otherwise, you'll never be surprised.

Hef will probably die, pissing his last, while being fawned over by some bleach blonde 20-something with coconut shaped silly-cones, who KNOWS (for sure!) that she's in his will. And this Crystal Harris girl will probably never be heard from again unless she makes a sex tape... or is found cold & stiff in a cheap West Hollywood motel room in four or five years.

You will always reap what you sow...

yeah but who are we to judge? I mean everyone has to find their own bliss, and it appears that Hefs bliss is nestled in between four or five blonde bimbos! He's achieved his bliss, which is more than most people can say about their lives, so good on him! Not to mention, he's enjoyed it while achieving SO much with his company...I honestly believe that without him and Playboy, I don't think I'd be a camgirl today. He made nudity ok for mainstream. He, plain and simple, fucking rocks.

Damn near like great minds thinking alike, wouldn't ya say?

I'm not really bagging on the Hefster... or her, for that matter. Just callin' it like I see it. They are what they are. That's the lifestyle they've chosen, they seem to be rolling with it and as long as they're honest about it from A-Z, I can't really criticize. Now, that thing with the girl from the Real Housewives show, the sorry way she played that, I probably wouldn't tap the brakes if I caught her ass crossing the street (as long as I was driving a rental).

 

[Straight Shooter]

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd smash:love-smi:

This is very true, but it's clear that the lifestyle he made famous is not really what he wants. He seems to be longing for a committed loving relationship with a woman that he is attracted to, but cannot find nor buy this. I don't care how rich or awesome you are, when you can't find the love you long for, all that hype is not worth as much. He had a ball in his lifetime, but this is something that has always eluded him. He's done a great job of pushing it back with sex, money, and more sex, but at this stage of his life, he wants to be truly loved.

A lot of these young blondes say they 'love' him, but how much do they really? Seems like once the Playboy lifestyle gets a little stale for them, they give Hef the ol' 'I love ya, but I'm not IN LOVE wit'cha' speech. They don't love him enough to stay with him, and be with him. I think at this point, if Hef could trade this Playboy lifestyle for true love, he would... but how can the most notorious player in this century find it at 80+ years of age? His own rep is failing greatly in this respect.

Actually, Hef and Crystal have stated that the only reason why he proposed in the first place is because he thought it was what Crystal wanted. I don't think he's really looking for a serious committment...otherwise he woulda popped the question to Holly Madison ages ago. (I'm secretly hoping they get back together, she REALLY seemed to care about him.)

 

[Icewater Jones]

If that's the case, the communication and understanding just isn't there. I really don't believe either of them to be honest. Hef over the past couple years is clearly exhibiting behavior of someone really looking for true love in the winter of his life. He even mentions it in the vodka commercial he did recently. I think Hef wound up not liking Holly as much as he thought he would, and didn't really push to keep her.

Everything Crystal says and is doing doesn't add up. Her feelings and story are pretty inconsistent at this point. As I said before, there are reports coming out now that state Crystal wasn't very happy with the legal and financial details in the paperwork of the marriage. I think both parties are trying to keep the whole thing clean for each others sake.

They turned the wedding plans tonight into movie night, with scheduled movie "The Runaway Bride". Bill Maher suggested on his show a double feature of "Weekend at Bernie's" and "Cocoon".

Girl got what she wanted from the man,but she could have called it off much sooner. Either way Hef will get another blonde that will take her gear off for us to enjoy.
