'09
19 year-old ex-felon twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon were the first of Hugh Hefner’s replacement girlfriends to step in when the Girls Next Door trio fell apart. While dark-haired January 2009 Playboy cover mode Dasha Astafieva was thought to be joining Hugh Hefner’s team of post-Girls Next Door replacement girlfriends, she has yet to officially join the crew. Ukranian-born Astafieva may have hurt her chances at a spot on the reality dream team by wearing a see-through knit dress with only a pair of thong underwear to a Playboy event and proceeding to remove the thong on the red carpet. Instead of Astafieva, who seems to have pissed off the competition, Hugh has a more typical third girlfriend. 22 year-old San Diego State coed Crystal Harris has announced that she’s officially in the mansion along with the Shannon Twins. From the way Harris words her introduction, she’s in on the decision making process as to who is allowed in the mansion and Astafieva may have stripped her way out of the blond clique:
Hugh Hefner has quietly added a new girlfriend to his posse. And she’s a “good girl.”
“I’m a good girl, for the most part,” new Hef gal pal Crystal Harris writes on her MySpace page.
The 22-year-old lesser-known girlfriend has frequently been photographed by the 82-year-old Playboy founder’s side, but never got a proper public introduction after former girlfriends Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson exited the Playboy Mansion.
Instead, fellow girlfriends - and 19-year-old twins - Karissa and Kristina Shannon nabbed headlines with their arrest records and, well, twindom, in the aftermath of the shake-up.Harris introduced herself on an E! online message board over the holidays, telling fans that “Hef gave me permission to fill people in on the new updates as a voice from the mansion.”
No other girlfriends are in the mix at this time, she says, but “there are a couple that we have interest in. … As for now, it is just us three.”
Despite her low-key status, Harris already has a fan site, but seems to focus most of her attention on her MySpace page.
“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,” Harris says on her site, which is peppered with Disney characters, cute animals, inspirational quotes and plenty of pink.
[From The NY Daily News]
According to the Daily News, Harris hasn’t yet appeared in the print version of Playboy. She was an online Co-Ed of the week under the name “Crystal Carter.” It’s unknown whether the series will continue on E! but you can bet they’re trying to plan for it with this latest girlfriend. You kind of hope there is a follow-up season in the works and that these super young girls aren’t just hanging around a guy old enough to be their great grandfather for the free publicity and perks that go along with “dating” him. They should at least get a show out of it.
I can’t help but wonder if any of these women actually do some kind of, you know, service for Hefner. You would hope they draw the line at heavy petting, but it’s doubtful. Maybe he just likes the company.

I think Bridget is still living there but they’re trying to bring in new blood for the show.
-
That’s what I heard too, but hopefully, Bridget doesn’t have to “service” Hef for her rent payment. The thought of it makes me want to vomit all over myself.
And what gets me is…I mean, he’s old enough to be their great grandfather! I understand the perks…but STILL. I’m 22 and I would nevereverever stoop to that.
Although, her being an SDSU chick does add some clarity to it all….
-
All three of those girls need to lay off the eye makeup and tanning if they expect anybody to believe that they are actually 19 and 22.
-
Anyone else think she’s the spitting image of Kendra?? (hopefully minus the annoying laugh and with half a brain)
-
it kinda irks me that he only dates blondes
everyone has their preferences and that’s fine
but it still irks me -
So he’s only into vapid bottle blonds. Is it 1975 all over again ?
-
I think this man is all ’smoke and mirrors.” I don’t believe he can still ‘get it up’
-
Picks the same model car over, and over, and over, and over, and over again….zzzzzzzz
-
Hugh Hefner disposes and replaces pathetic women constantly. This is pretty much a non-event anymore.
All the blondes look the same, and the brunette was overhyped, as she looked just like every other “exotic beauty” out there.
-
Wow, another so so looking fake blond? So extremely shocked.
-
I often wonder how much of Hugh’s public image is real and if it’s not all just a show for us, the mass public, as we’ve come to expect him to be this massive icon over the years.
-
Do you seriously have to question whether this is a show or not? Come on folks, get real. One of his last “girlfriends” was engaged to someone else for months while she and Hef claimed she was one of his 3 girlfriends. The reason the two older girls got mad at Kendra is because she’d had enough and said she was going public. They didn’t want the charade to end because they were laughing all the way to the bank. Up to that point most of the suckers were fooled, but you guys are STILL questioning it?
Hefner has carefully honed an “image” that fits with the lifestyle “attitude” of his corporation, magazine, videos and shows. Of course it’s all a show. Will you please wake up and smell the coffee?
-
well at least she’s decent looking! Unlike those muttly twins!!!!! get some taste hef!!
-
@ velvet elvis: first thing I said when I saw her picture was: “she looks exactly like Kendra!!!”
-
NO GIRLS WILL EVER REPLACE HOLLY, BRIDGET AND KENDRA and thats a fact!!
HOW BORING TO HAVE TWO SISTERS THAT LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME?? NO VARIETY…
-
another 3 in a long list of money hungry trolls.. pathetic women
-
