Crystal Harris
Gossip

Tonight, E! viewers will meet the new Girls Next Door, as Crystal Harris, Karissa Shannon and Kristina Shannon officially replaced Holly, Bridget and Kendra as Hugh Hefner's leading ladies.

Asked about the woman that's replaced her atop the Playboy Mansion girlfriend train, Madison said in a recent interview that Harris is her "clone," a description the busty blonde takes exception to.

“That is flattering because I wouldn’t compare myself saying that someone looks like me,” Crystal said to OK! Weekly of Holly’s comments. “I just think it’s flattering.”

Hmmm... we wonder where Holly ever would have gotten this comparison from.

Crystal Harris is the exact opposite of Holly Madison, if you don't count their hair color, fake boobs and shared penchant for banging old men.

Meanwhile, those hoping to get to know Kristina Shannon should check out her MySpage page, where the sex-crazed sibling writes:

"Love me without fear. Trust me without wondering. Love me without restrictions. Want me without demands. Accept me how I am. A love like that will be ETERNAL!"

It will also be good for ratings. Click on the photos below for larger images of the new (and improved?) Girls Next Door:

Sure, it might seem as though Crystal Harris is just using Hugh Hefner for fame and attention.

And, of course, one might assume the Playboy founder was only interested in sex with a much younger blonde.

But Harris tells E! News that her and Hefner actually have a lot in common. Like a passion for fun!

"We were both psychology majors in school... We laugh a lot together. We watch movies together. We love relaxing and having a good time and hanging out with the girls. We just keep it fun."

How did we ever doubt this couple? It's like a match made in busty heaven.

On October 11, fans will learn even more about this pair, as they star alongside Karissa and Kristina Shannon in a new version of The Girls Next Door.

What should viewers expect to discover about the young women that make love to such an old man?

"We're the wild ones and party animals, and Crystal's really calm and mellow," said Karissa, while her sister added: "We don't like the peacocks here. They poop everywhere, and they're loud."

That doesn't make them so different from Hef, does it?

Bridget Marquardt has a Travel Channel show and might come out with a new reality series.

But she just can't stay away from the Playboy Mansion and its wrinkly old owner of an ex-boyfriend!

Marquardt showed up this weekend at the large residence and got cozy with Hugh Hefner and his new set of girlfriends at the annual Midsummer Night’s Dream party.

Below, Bridget snuggles up with Karissa and Kristina Shannon, while Crystal Harris also played hosts to a numer of of celebrity guests at the event...

They haven't been having sex with a wrinkly old man for nothing!

After months of waking up with Metamucil in their hair for seemingly no reason, Crystal Harris, Karissa Shannon and Kristina Shannon are finally getting the official spotlight they signed on for:

Hugh Hefner has confirmed that he and his new trio of women will be filming a new season of The Girls Next Door.

"You are looking at part of the cast here," Hefner told Us Weekly over the weekend, pointing to his girlfriends. "We are going to have a lot of fun."

What can viewers expect on the new edition of the E! reality series, which previously followed around Kendra Wilkinson, Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt?

"Fun and games!" Hef said.

Considering the constant parade of beautiful women in his bedroom, Hugh Hefner is not one to dwell on the past.

That's why he's confused about a report this week that claimed he wanted Holly Madison to move back into the Playboy Mansion (either that, or Hef is suffering from dementia; the guy is really, really old).

"I have no idea where these crazy stories come from," Hefner said in a statement. "The idea that I'm pining over former girlfriend Holly Madison and would 'welcome her back with open arms' is pure fiction. It was invented by someone to create publicity."

Hef said he doesn't think of Madison in that way anymore. After all, the guy is totally smitten with one to three women.

"I'm in love with Crystal Harris (pictured) and wouldn't trade her or the Shannon Twins for anyone in the past," he said. "Holly will always be welcome here at the mansion, but not as a girlfriend. I think she's happy now, and I know I am."

No offense to Holly, but Hef appears to have made the right decision. Harris is the hottest girlfriend he's had yet. We present the following photos of her as evidence:

This just in: it's good to be Hugh Hefner.

The Playboy founder and chick magnet turned 83 last week - and he didn't exactly celebrate by himself.

Hefner and his most recent string of beautiful blondes gathered at the Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

Indeed, all of Hef's former and current girlfriends turned out for the party: Karissa and Kristina Shannon, Bridget Marquardt, Holly Madison, Kendra Wilkinson and Crystal Harris. Man, to be a fly on Hef's bedroom wall on this night...

Don't cry for Hugh Hefner.

Granted, the Playboy founder has ended his relationships with Holly Madison, Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt. But he told E! Online that a new set of girlfriends moved in to his mansion about two weeks after he became a single man.

In an interview with the entertainment network, Hefner was joined by those new gal pals - Karissa and Kristina Shannon - as well by the third blonde recently added to his busty brood: Crystal Harris.

Here are a few naughty nuggets from the conversation:

Hef's relationship philosophy: "The best solution to lost love is new love."

Crystal Harris, comparing herself to The Shannon Twins: "I'm much more reserved than the twins. They are much more outgoing, and I'm the type of person who likes to stay close to home. Hef has the best of both worlds with us."

Hef on Kendra's fiance, Hank Baskett:  "[He's a] cool guy."

Hef on not marry Holly, due to his previously failed marriages: "Those are not the happiest times of my life and I just don't want to screw up another. [Holly]... will make a good wife to Criss [Angel] or whoever she winds up with."

Hef on adding a new sex buddy: We don't have anyone in particular, but it's always possible. There was one point when I had seven girlfriends."

Heck, when your sex mates look like this, why wouldn't you add as many as possible?!?

If you're the 82-year old owner of the world's most famous men's magazine, you needn't choose between busty young blondes.

You can go to bed with Crystal Harris, Karissa Shannon and Kristina Shannon every night of the week. And we have little doubt that Hugh Hefner does just that.

But if you're a reader of the country's most buzzed about celebrity gossip site, sorry, we're making you take sides in this battle between Playboy bunnies...

With which of Hugh Hefner's girlfriends would you rather go to bed?

Hugh Hefner's latest girlfriend is not a complete unknown. At least not to those that frequent Playboy.com.

While Crystal Harris has never posed naked for the magazine itself (yet), she has bared almost all for its official website.

In fact, the San Diego State University student - under the name "Crystal Carter" - was named the Cyber Club's Coed of the Week for October 30, 2008. Her section of the site even includes a brief Q&A, which we've posted below:

What part of a guy do you study first?
Looks are irrelevant to me because I go for personality first. I never liked jocks or show-offs. Sweet, genuine guys capture my heart and make me smile.

What is your special talent?
I snowboard, can drive a boat and am addicted to frozen yogurt and Nintendo Wii.

We're guessing Hefner and/or the Shannon twins can name a few more talents possessed by Crystal.

Move over, Karissa and Kristina Shannon.

Crystal Harris wants to make her presence as Hugh Hefner's third new girlfriend known!

The 22-year old busty blonde revealed on E! Online’s message board that she's moved into the Playboy mansion alongside the aforementioned twins.

“Hef gave me permission to fill people in on the new updates as a voice from the mansion,” Harris wrote, adding that only only her and the Shannons have replaced Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson so far, though “there are a couple [other girls] that we have interest in."

Crystal Harris, far right, poses alongside boyfriend Hugh Hefner and his other two new girlfriends, Karissa and Kristina Shannon.

As for details about Harris: she's a psychology student at San Diego State University. Her MySpace page paints her as a passionate romantic that loves a good cliche as much as a wrinkle-laden roll in the sack:

"I believe in opening your heart and letting your walls down, it is better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all."
