Holly Madison Talks About Love & Marriage

Reality star and Vegas performer Holly Madison recently called it quits with boyfriend Jack Barakat, and shared her views with Buzznet about love and marriage.

Despite their breakup, Holly had nothing but nice things to say about her former rock star beau, even revealing that she admires him. “It’s funny that you mentioned Jack in the question before, because the first thing that popped into my head when you said what do I admire about other people, is Jack’s ability to balance work and fun in his life. He’s a really hard worker, but still has time for the people in his life and to have a good time. Sometimes I think all I do is work and I need a little more balance in my life! Balance is key.”

In addition to Jack, the reality star has been linked to some big Hollywood names including Hugh Hefner and Criss Angel, but is she thinking about marriage?

Holly told Buzznet, “Perhaps, though I’m more concerned about having children in the future than getting married. Marriage is not the best thing that can happen to you, as a woman. If I woke up one morning and discovered I was getting married (be it to anyone) and that everything I’d accomplished for myself in the last few years was all a dream, I’d be devastated!”

So what’s up next for this independent woman? “I have several diverse business projects coming up in the next year that I am really excited about. In the super-near future it’s all about shooting Season 3 of Holly’s World and developing another show, but as one of the producers, not as the star.”

Hef Is "Very Fortunate" To Have Crystal Harris

Hugh Hefner is happier than he has even been thanks to his fiancee Crystal Harris.

The 85-year-old Playboy founder will marry the 24-year-old blonde beauty at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles on June 18 and Hugh - who has been married twice before - insists Crystal is the only woman for him.

He said: "I'm devoted to her. This is as happy a time in my life as I've ever had. I feel very fortunate."

For Hugh, having a happy home life is especially important as he admits he had a strict upbringing and sought comfort in movies when he was a child.

He told Total Film magazine: "I grew up in the 30s and 40s. 'Frankenstein', 'The Bride of Frankenstein', I loved them. 'King Kong' was my favourite.

"I didn't exactly come from a home full of hugs and kisses.

"It was a typical conservative, puritan home and I was quite a solitary child, a bit of a dreamer. Movies showed me another world and sparked a desire in me."

Hugh Hefner & Crystal Harris: No Gifts Please!

It's just a few weeks until Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris tie the knot -- all the details are set, and the wedding invitations have been sent out.

But rather than heading to Bed Bath and Beyond to create a registry, the couple has asked their 300 guests to make donations to select charities in lieu of gifts.

"It was actually Crystal's suggestion and I thought it was a great idea," the Playboy founder tells Us Weekly. "The point of it is, we don't need gifts. A lot of people are in need and the notion of giving to charity instead of giving gifts to us just made sense."

The charities that Hefner, 85, and Harris, 24, chose include Children of the Night, an L.A.-based foundation that's dedicated to ending child prostitution; charity: water, a non-profit that aims to provide clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations; and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. "No child is denied treatment, and it's a wonderful organization," Hefner adds.

The bride- and groom-to-be are "expecting a full house" for their wedding, due to take place at the (where else?) the Playboy mansion in L.A. on June 18. As for wedding-day jitters, Hefner jokes, "We’re waiting for responses to our invitations. If we don’t get enough responses, we won’t get married!"

But The Girls Next Door star is "very excited" about the big day. "Crystal is wonderful and she's done a really terrific job so far with all the planning. She is the one for me!"

Hugh Hefner: 'Everything's in Place' for Wedding

While some playboys get cold feet when it comes to matrimony, Hugh Hefner tells Us Weekly he's not worried about marrying centerfold Crystal Harris this summer.

"I'm not nervous at all, I'm excited," says the Playboy founder, who celebrated his 85th birthday with a Casablanca-themed bash last weekend. "June is a big month -- Crystal and I will be in London opening a new club, then we'll come back and get married at the mansion! It's going to be a very special year. It's the Chinese year of the rabbit, so the bunny is back!"

While Harris, 24, has made most of the arrangements, Hefner says she does ask for his input, and is a "relaxed" bride-to-be.

"Everything is in place," he says. "She's wonderful and she's done a really terrific job so far with all the planning. She is the one for me!"

And the Girls Next Door star had nothing but good things to say about ex-girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson, who's competing on this season's Dancing With the Stars.

"I have absolutely been watching. And voting!" Hefner tells Us. "I call in. And I've been telling others to vote for her as well. I think she's doing great. There's nothing fake about Kendra. She's a very special lady."

Holly Madison Won't Attend Hef's Wedding

The guest list at Hugh Hefner's wedding has mostly been set, but there's one former flame who won't be in attendance.

"I think Holly Madison has expressed publicly that it would be a little strange if she was there and I respect that," the Playboy founder told PEOPLE at his 85th birthday party at Las Vegas's Palms Casino Resort.

As portrayed on E!'s Girls Next Door, Madison hoped to marry Hefner but eventually moved on and relocated to Las Vegas. Hefner, meanwhile, moved on to 24-year-old Crystal Harris, whom he will wed on June 18. The feud between Madison and Harris has been well documented.

As for Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt, the two other women who costarred with Madison, they are invited, despite Wilkinson's recent claims that she has yet to receive a "Save The Date" card from the couple.

"She knows she's invited," Hefner said. "The invitations haven't gone out yet."

Hefner, himself, is a little surprised that he's taking another trip down the aisle.

"I never expected to get married again," said the previously twice-married Hefner. "But the reality is I can't see myself with anybody else, and I just want to give the relationship that kind of formal statement. I think Crystal deserves it. I love happy endings."

Are The GND Excluded From Hef's Wedding?

The save-the-date cards for Hugh Hefner's wedding to Crystal Harris are out — and it sounds like some of the Girls Next Door weren't invited!

Confronted with the reality that other people have already been receiving their invites, some of Hef's exes are now reacting to their exclusion from the special day. "If it were me I wouldn't want my boyfriend's or fiancé's ex-girlfriends at the wedding," Bridget Marquardt told In Touch at SVEDKA Vodka's Night of a Billion Reality Stars.

While leaving exes out of a wedding ceremony may seem expected, Bridget still seems a bit surprised. "The only thing I can say is that I think Hef is a little different… I always think Hef is an exception," she says. "It is an ex-boyfriend, but it's different for some reason.”

It is unclear whether the Girls Next Door will actually attend the wedding, but don't count on a large gift package from Bridget. "I will definitely send a card, but a gift? They don't need anything."

ABC To Fire Karina Smirnoff Over Playboy?

Following Hugh Hefner's tweet that teased Karina Smirnoff as the May issue cover of Playboy, ABC reportedly is frantic about the kind of attention that "Dancing with the Stars" will get. "If Karina posed naked, she can kiss her dancing days goodbye," a show's insider told PopEater. "I hope for Karina's sake that this isn't true."

"DWTS", despite skimpy clothes and sexy dances, is categorized as family TV. Karina, reportedly has violated the terms of her contract by posing nude for the cover without getting a consent from the show's bosses. "ABC publicity department controls the image of this show with an iron fist. It's a cash cow and they are not going to allow its reputation to be soiled by a dancer who wants to do Playboy," an ABC source said.

In fact, the execs have applied the theory on host Tom Bergeron. "Just a few weeks ago, ABC PR stopped Tom Bergeron from doing a live webcast with an outlet they didn't approve of. I can only imagine is going on right now after Hef's tweet," the source added.

Karina's issue of Playboy would be out later this month, possibly while she's still dancing on the show with surprise favorite Ralph Macchio. Rep of the pro dancer and ABC are yet to comment on the report. But it's not likely that ABC will give Karina a harsh treatment because this season is featuring another woman who has posed for Playboy, Kendra Wilkinson.

Claire Sinclair: Playboy Playmate of the Year '11

For weeks, it’s been rumored that Claire Sinclair would land the title of 2011 Playboy Playmate of the Year, even though magazine mogul Hugh Hefner won’t officially unveil his pick until May 7 here in Las Vegas.

But late last night, it appeared to become official with news from The Playboy Mansion in L.A. that Claire had won the voting over her two nearest rivals. I’m reliably told that she’s already shot the full pictorial for the upcoming edition that celebrates her title.

Hef & Crytal's Wedding Secrets Revealed

Crystal Harris is wasting no time making her union to Playboy magnate Hugh Hefner more than official, and now Radar Online is revealing some of the hush-hush details!

"This will be the most romantic wedding ever," Crystal boasted in an exclusive new interview.

Set to wed Hef on Saturday, June 18, Radar Online can reveal that Crystal has made a decision on the most important detail for the big day: her gown.

The bride-to-be, 24, will wear a Ramona Keveca design when she says her 'I Do' to 84-year-old Hef.

"No expense is being spared for the wedding," Playboy spokeswoman Kellie Olisky told Radar Online. in an exclusive interview.

"It isn't even a compromise, because Hef wants Crystal to have the wedding of her dreams."

June 18 is when the happy couple will tie the knot at the world famous Playboy Mansion and every detail is set to reflect Crystal's romantic, whimsical and simple visions.

The decor will be an elegant theme, with pale summery hues; but the one thing Hef wanted -- and got -- was bright flowers.

"Hef asked that the flowers be bursting with color and this will look great with Crystal's lighter colored theme everywhere else," Olisky told Radar Online.

DJ Cassidy, who is performing at Cocahella with Kanye West, will be spinning tunes at the reception while veteran musician, Ray Anthony, will also be playing!

The couple will be keeping the wedding small -- at least by Hollywood standards -- inviting around 300 guests.

Designer Ramona Keveca has also the bridesmaid dresses, with Crystal having her two sisters and Anna Berglund, Miss January 2011, as attendants.

Hef's brother Keith and two of his sons, Marston and Cooper, will form the groom's party.

"The day is going to be a testimony to their love," Olisky said.

Crystal Doesn't Want Hef's Exes At Wedding

Hugh Hefner's ex-girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson is peeved that she has yet to receive an invite to his upcoming nuptials with Crystal Harris, and the wedding day, set for June 18, is fast approaching. Wilkinson is now threatening to attend another wedding that day, one she has rightfully been invited to.

Kendra should bank on attending the alternate wedding since sources close to Hef's betrothed tell PopEater that Harris is on the fence about whether she wants her big day packed with an audience of women her husband has slept with.

"This is Crystal's special day, and she doesn't want all of Hef's exes there," a friend says. "What woman would?"

It's a fair question despite the liberties typically taken in Hugh Hefner's personal relationships, where he has lived with several girlfriends at once.

Kendra says she doesn't blame Hugh, but she does blame Crystal.

"It's Crystal that does the wedding planning. She's the girl," Kendra told E! Online. "If she doesn't give me a save the date soon, I'm going to have to put in my save the date with the other wedding."

This may be the third wedding for Hef, but it is Crystal's first. And though their relationship got off on a nontraditional foot, what with Crystal sharing Hef with the Shannon twins, she wants her marriage to be a traditional one and that means no more sharing.

This wedding is sure to be a media circus, so a save the date would likely go through Kendra's publicist before it gets sent to her personally anyway. Still, the reality star shouldn't hold her breath. That other wedding sounds like it will be just as fun, but we feel bad for that pal, who now knows they're second fiddle.

Hef to Crystal Harris -- We Don't Need A Prenup

He's 84 and worth $43 million ... she's 24 and knows he's worth $43 million -- yet sources close to Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris tell TMZ neither has uttered those dreaded words ... "prenuptial agreement."

Hef's third wedding is just 10 weeks away, but we're told he hasn't raised a prenup convo because he "actually cares" about Crystal and doesn't want to ask her to sign one.

We're told Crystal doesn't think Hef will bring it up before they tie the knot.

What could go wrong?

Holly Madison Is Looking for Her Soul Mate

Holly Madison isn't dwelling on her split earlier this month from beau Jack Barakat.

The Holly's World star and Peepshow Las Vegas dancer has her head buried in work: Her Vegas-themed book, The Showgirl Next Door, hits shelves April 15. On top of which, she's working as Extra's Sin City entertainment correspondent.

But that doesn't mean she's stopped searching for Mr. Right.

"I would love to meet my soul mate," Madison, 32, told PEOPLE Wednesday. "I'm always kind of keeping my eyes open for somebody."

Based on prior experiences, Madison believes finding the one will be challenging. "It's hard for me," the reality starlet says, referring to her rigorous work schedule. "The last couple relationships I had were long distance, [and] it's not like I can make much of an effort to travel and see anybody. The guy had to do all the work, unfortunately."

So, how can a guy meet Madison's standards?

"It definitely takes a guy who is secure and not overprotective and doesn't feel threatened by a successful woman," she explains. "He needs to be patient and somebody who knows where he wants the relationship to go."

For now, Madison is getting by just fine going solo.

"I'm happy single, but I'm happy in both cases," she says when asked if she prefers being single or taken. "I feel like I definitely thrive more as a human and I'm more successful when I'm single."

As for Madison's past dating life, it can be relived on E!'s True Hollywood Story: Holly Madison, which premieres March 30 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT, and features interviews with her ex, Hugh Hefner, and former Girls Next Door housemates Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt.

Playboy Clears Up The Crystal Cheating Rumors

Hugh Hefner's fiancée, Crystal Harris, is doing more than just making music with her songwriting partner, Jordan McGraw. The Life & Style Scene Queens can exclusively reveal that Crystal -- who got engaged to Hef in December -- has been caught with another man...and it's Dr. Phil's son, Jordan!

We watched the 24-year-old lovebirds cozy up at the Chateau Marmont in LA on March 14. While Crystal was hoping to keep their romance low-key, Jordan didn't care to hide his affections, kissing her shoulder and trying to hold her hand -- still adorned with her 6-carat engagement ring. Despite Crystal's impending June 18 wedding date to the Playboy founder, sources tell us that she and Jordan are very happy together.

"They've been sneaking around because Crystal is supposed to be happily engaged to Hef, and going out in public with Jordan would tarnish Hef and Crystal's relationship image," a source tells the Scene Queens.

The pair met through the Organica record label, where until recently Jordan worked with Crystal as a songwriter. "Jordan was let go from Organica for dating female clients under the label," the source says.

Michael Blakey, president of the Organica Music Group tells us, "Jordan McGraw no longer works for the label, and to the best of my knowledge, Crystal is very much in love with Hef." He adds, "Jordan and Organica departed ways amicably and are looking forward to collaborating on future projects. I can only imagine that Crystal and Jordan were together for song writing purposes." Says a rep for Playboy, "Jordan and Crystal have a business relationship."

Hugh Hefner, Fiance Support Kendra At 'DWTS'

Hugh Hefner was among the audience at Monday night's Dancing with the Stars premiere.

The Playboy founder attended the 12th season's first performance night to support former girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson, who is one of the 11 celebrities competing for the Mirror Ball Trophy.

The 84-year-old, who attended with fiancée Crystal Harris, later tweeted: "We had a wonderful time tonight lending our support to Kendra on the season premiere of Dancing With The Stars (sic)."

Wilkinson sent a message to Hefner on her own Twitter account, writing: "Thank you so much for coming, so good seeing you guys."

The Kendra star, who performed the cha cha with partner Louis van Amstel, had earlier told fans that she was "nervous and excited" ahead of her dancefloor debut.

"I have been working my butt off getting ready for this and I can't wait to make you all proud on the dancefloor!" she wrote on her official website. "I've learned so much thanks to my incredible partner and teacher Louis. He has been so amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better dance partner."

Dancing with the Stars continues next Monday at 8/7c on ABC.
