Linens, lace, fine china, stripper poles, good silver – nothing says marriage like a traditional wedding registry. Unfortunately, the uptight snobs at Macy’s and Bed Bath and Beyond think they’re too good to stock stripper poles, making them really hard to register for. How else are you supposed to furnish your new home with the necessities? Luckily former Playmate and “Girls Next Door” star Kendra Wilkinson – who’s getting married in June and talking about little else – saw this unfortunate gap in the marketplace and decided to step up and design her very own line of stripper poles.
Coming to a store near you: Kendra Wilkinson’s new line of stripper poles!
“I’m coming out with my own stripper pole. Stripper pole, and stripper pole workout,” The Girls Next Door star, 23, told Usmagazine.com at the American Red Cross Red Tie Affair in Santa Monica Saturday.
“It’s like Carmen Electra’s, but mine is better,” she continued. “Mine will connect to the ceiling, and you can spin on it and do all that stuff on it.”
Wilkinson is busy promoting her new E! reality show, Kendra, which follows her engagement and marriage to Philadelphia Eagles’ beau Hank Baskett.
“It’s been fun,” she said of taping the series, which premieres this summer. “A lot of work, but fun. I’m used to Holly and Bridget, but now it’s just me. My show’s kind of — our show — is kind of like I Love Lucy, but newlyweds. It’s funny.”
How’s wedding planning going? “Still working on the dress,” Wilkinson — who was worried about looking too “’80s Prom” — told Us. “We’re talking to a really cool florist. He’s making the flowers amazing — 6-foot centerpieces! It’s going to look like a fair-tale wedding. I’m really excited about it.”

I sense an impending stripper pole feud. Kendra Wilkinson vs. Carmen Electra. Instead of having an epic dance off (the best way to solve most feuds) they’ll have a strip off (the second best way to solve most feuds). There will be three categories upon which they’ll be judged: pole twirling, clothing removal, and skanky facial expressions. I’m placing my money on Carmen, but I’m sure it’ll be a photo finish. Or something.
I have no idea what Carmen Electra’s stripper pole looks like (I’ve learned not to Google these things, I rarely get the results I want), but Kendra seems to be implying it doesn’t connect to the ceiling, and that somehow makes it unworthy. I’m not sure if she wants to get really high up on the pole and do something fireman style, or if maybe not connecting to the ceiling means it’s less stable and thus limiting. But I hear the world of celebrity stripper poles is really competitive, so if I were Kendra I’d watch what I say. Fighting words and such.

Kendra has never been a playmate.
I swear, we have to point that out in every single thing thats written about her, as well as Holly and Bridget.
Doesn’t mean I don’t still like them though.
I thought she was claiming to be conservative now though…didn’t she start praying at the dinner table with her fiance…oh well I guess stripping can be a religious experience…

Thanks, Heb, I was going to ask/say the same thing. I thought the whole thing was that, as girlfriends, they couldn’t be playmates, and that was what always made bridget so upset because she wanted to be a playmate since she was a kid (which disturbs me)

if they don’t anchor the pole you can’t do much with it. None of the really good stripper twirls anyway. lol
The thing about anchoring it at home is you can’t move it when grandma comes..Or it’s your turn to host mommy & me.
How can you design a line of poles? it’s a pole. Either a glorified tension rod or a piece of galvanized steel with anchor screw plates. There’s not a whole lot you can do with that. Paint ‘em? Stickers? I had a girlfriend that worked at a club that had a whole jungle-gym-like system suspended from the ceiling. One girl could work it, she was amazing. The rest of the girls just used the pole to sadly spin or grind their rear against. What a waste of a pole.

aren’t you a playmate if you are in the mag?? what’s the difference?

There’s no “rule” that girlfriends can’t be playmates, but Hef’s type is peroxide blonde and double D implants, the magazine wasn’t thrilled to have cookie cutter plastic playmates month after month.
Bridget said she was rejected when she tried for playmate and Holly said Hef didn’t think she was photogenic enough. Kendra wasn’t that hot when she first came to the mansion either. I think Kendra would make the cut these days, but she’s way more famous than that now so she doesn’t really need to.
The monthly playmate is the centerfold of each issue–there is only ONE. And just because you’re on the cover doesn’t make you a playmate–that would mean Paris Hilton and Jessica Alba are playmates.

Manda-as a side note Bridget was rejected in the 90′s because she wasn’t hot enough to be a playmate–she tried for several years before dating Hef.

Oh gawd, I thought her vocabulary would have improved after leaving the Heff, but sadly, that was hoping for too much.
And honestly, who talks about stripping at a RED CROSS event? Hmmmm….
I wonder if she still has that annoying laugh.

Oh yes, the laugh is still intact. I just don’t understand why she has to try to put down Carmen’s stuff when they could both play nicely in the sandbox.

Like Kendra, they’re cheap, thin, and manufactured from high-grade plastic.
