He may be the richest, swankiest and most famous cat in Holmby Hills, but the credit crunch has got Hugh Hefner too. Back in August, Playboy announced the end of company-thrown shindigs at the mansion but still is letting people rent out the famous grounds for their own events. Now the Daily Star is reporting that Hef is stripping back staff after the stock's plunge. But that's what an inside source is saying and Playboy, shielded behind an employee information policy, has no comment.

The answer is yes and no for the famed good times at the mansion in Holmby Hills. Yes, as Fox News' Pop Tarts feature says, the economy has had an effect on Playboy too:

                     

Going to the Playboy Mansion is like watching an episode of HBO's Entourage. You walk in and there are celebrities everywhere, almost like they are extras to your party going experience. McLovin' is chilling with the two girls of Superbad, Tila Tequila is hanging out by the sushi table, Jeremy Piven is chatting by the pool, Anna Ferris is waiting in line to use the bathroom, Obama Girl is relaxing on a couch and the list goes on.

You’re probably wondering why we’ve waited so long to cover the first episode of E!’s reality series The Girls Next Door: Season 4. I would wonder too.

But first, a little history. Despite the fact that Hef’s girlfriends Bridget, Holly and...

I had never seen a Snoop Dog show, or Dolomite either. So when i was assigned to see them and write them up, i had to admit i was star struck by the whole thing. How many rappers can say they even have their own special edition of Girls Gone Wild?! Snoop Dogg is a living legend, and so is Dolomite who is a comedian and the opening act. Dolomite literally had his electric...

- State trooper pulls over a female blogger in Tennessee. She has been drinking, has drugs and was speeding. He throws away her drugs and watches porn with her on the patrol car laptop before engaging in sexual acts. She blogs about it. Oh yeah, she's pornstar Barbie Cummings who is moving LA and somehow, she still ended up with a $159 ticket she has to pay for not showing up in court. - He...

My thoughts and prayers are with her friends and loved ones during this difficult time." - Playboy.com - Playboy photo editor Gary Cole blogged, "And now she is suddenly gone, like with Marilyn and Jayne Mansfield, taken too quickly.

Why Hugh Hefner is calling up Cindy Margolis to ask her to pose for Playboy is beyond us, but someone in that mansion needs to update bro's speed dial. Every couple (of) years, when Mr. (Hugh) Hefner would call, I would very graciously decline, because my mom would kill me, and I thought it was more mysterious keeping my clothes on. But, this year, when I got the call from Mr. Hefner, it was...

Let's take a look back at a week that raised this Zen koan: if Kevin Federline got into a wrestling ring with a wrestler, who would you root for?

Google and MySpace team up. Playboy's Hugh Hefner is immortal. The octogenarian denies a mini-stroke this past weekend. Internet use for extreme local community activism at its best: PaveMyStreet.com (via LAVoice via Curbed L.A.) More laughing at crappy singers to come as American Idol auditions were held today at the Rose Bowl. Lake Balboa in the Valley is a fake lake. Today's Transit Coalition e-newsletter talks up more than we can dish out. But...

"I've been trying to go to Iraq with Hillary Clinton for so long," Local 20 year old Lindsay Lohan told Elle Magazine, People reports.

Living in LA has inspired Madonna to renew her vows with her Guy... in England. Female First has...

E!, Sundays at 9pm

buns in the oven? Anna Nicole Smith, who just had the Supreme Court side with her (sort of) against her nasty stepson, is rumored to be pregnant — with twins. Our favorite part of the story is the name of her lawyer, who issued a non-denial of the pregnancy yesterday: he's Howard K. Stern.
