Crystal Harris on if she has sex with husband Hugh Hefner: “no comment”


Hugh Hefner’s runaway and then back-again bride, Crystal Harris, was on Huffington Post live recently and I have to hand it to the interviewer. She really called Crystal on her crap. Back when Crystal and Hef split the first time, she went on Howard Stern and claimed that she’d never seen him naked, that they’d only had sex once and that it lasted two seconds. You can see the video of her interview here, she screws up her face when describing sex with Hef as if the thought disgusts her. (At least back then she could screw up her face.)

So now that Crystal is married to Hef, having realized she could do no better, the awesome HuffPo live interviewer asked Crystal about their sex life and reminded her about the comments she made about Hef being awful in bed. Crystal denied ever saying that, (again – video of her saying that) but she also said “no comment” when asked directly if she ever has sex with Hef. In her mind, intimacy is watching movies and playing backgammon.

Playboy magnate Hugh Hefner’s wife Crystal Hefner told HuffPost Live Wednesday that she had “no comment” on the couple’s sex life.

Asked about intimacy in their relationship, Hefner said that “since Heff is older now and has had the phase of his life — the phases of all the girlfriends and all that kind of stuff — I feel now is more, you know like cuddling up and watching a movie or playing backgammon.”

“So does that mean that you don’t have sex?” HuffPost Live host Alyona Minkovski asked.

“Ah, I’m not gonna — no comment,” Hefner said with a laugh.

Hefner did go on to refute claims that she had once called Hugh a “two second man” after initially calling off their marriage.

“People switch things all over,” Hefner said. “I never said that. When I first left I did some interviews I shouldn’t have done … I was mad. I was, you know, it was a breakup. So I shouldn’t have done some of the things, and at the time I had a bad publicist, so things did get switched and turned around.”

So it’s all Crystals’ ex-publicist’s fault that she did an interview on Howard Stern alone and talked about what an awful lover Hef was and how trapped she felt in the Playboy mansion.

Later on in the interview, Crystal admits that she married Hef for “security” and the reassurance of “knowing that I’m the one for him,” meaning she doesn’t have to work, gets a nice crash pad and a chunk of change when he kicks it, even though there’s a prenup in place to protect the bulk of his fortune.

Well I have to give Crystal credit. I’m grateful that she described intimacy as playing board games. I no longer have to picture her trying to make it work with Hef and imagining what that entails.
