Crystal Harris Drops Debut Single and Hugh Hefner on Same Day

By Kiki Von Glinow Posted Jun 15th 2011 10:00AM

After Tuesday's somber tweet from Hugh Hefner, confirming his third marriage proposal would not end in marriage -- "The wedding is off. Crystal has had a change of heart" -- we haven't been able to let go of a more than unsettling coincidence. Ex-fiancée, Crystal Harris was promoting her debut single just hours before formally commenting that the wedding was off.

Apparently the opportune timing was not lost on Hefner either. After taking to Twitter to let his followers know that Harris' new single, 'Club Queen,' had just become available on iTunes, he retweeted a fan's suspicions of Harris' fame-seeking, use him then lose him intentions.

"Omg @CrystalHarris left @hughhefner the day her single came out on iTunes. Coincidence? I think not," Hefner retweeted from @LinzLuvs.

Although the dubious timing is not lost on the 85-year-old, he isn't taking the break-up laying down. In fact, according to his recently verbose Twitter account, he's taking the breakup sitting straight up -- playing dominoes, watching movies and visiting with his ex-wife, Kim Conrad, and ex-girlfriend, Bridget Marquardt.

So did the original playboy get played? Not only was Harris' new single released the same day that she called off her backyard Playboy Mansion wedding, the announcement of the nixed nuptials came the same day the bombshell also released a Funny or Die video -- spoofing the 60 year age difference between herself and the fiancé she nearly left at the altar.

"My fiance is 60 years older than me and I don't understand his references," Harris exclaims in the video spoof in which she hocks 'The Playboy App' which helps to bridge the gap for May December couples.

But just because Saturday's flower and table linen orders have been cancelled, doesn't mean the reminder of Hefner's almost bride won't be a glaring one. Harris covers Playboy's July issue, on stands Friday, with the headline, 'America's Princess: Introducing Mrs. Crystal Hefner,' according to the New York Post -- quite a title for a girl who never made it (intentionally or unintentionally) down the aisle.

Although Hefner doesn't seem to be losing sleep over his runaway bride -- let's be honest, he's probably already holding auditions for 'girlfriend' spots -- we're sure the snub still stings. But we have a feeling Harris' forthcoming album won't be seeing the light of day after this sordid (but business smart) stunt.

So let's get this straight. How did this 26 year old bimbot play THE Playboy? She released a single at the same time she dropped an engagement? So what? Hef has access to so many girls I don't think he will care too much in about a week. It's not like he is regular guy who has to work hard to get girls interested. Who knows maybe this was all staged for publicity sake for her, Hef and his brand?

Hef practically invented the ideal of modern sexuality/ sexual promiscuity and now he is forcing people to think about senior citizen sex. Yep old people doing it. Hef pioneers another psychological barrier.

As for blond of the month...well her new single is about as tepid as anything I have heard all week. She and Heidi Montag can perhaps get together and do a duet called forgotten blondes.

From having worked in entertainment with many beautiful young women I can tell you they are all F*ck*d Up beyond belief, like little spoiled girls how got sick of the sweet and cute routine and turned into predators. By the way, they can't cook and they make lousy wives.

I'm sure he knew this could happen. But being 85 and having a 25 year old girlfriend is worth the risk.

Seriously when I was in my late teens and early 20's and older men used to leer at me I would get pissed off and sick to my stomach.And I mean any male who was more than 5 years older than me I considered a pervert for leering lusting after me.I had a very nice Father thank you very much so I guess because of that I did not need to act out Daddy issues.My point is that older men are often hopelessly attracted to very young females BUT the wise ones do not act on it. Hef is unnatural with his pitiful need to try to project a "stud" image!And all of the trashy young females that attach themselves to him are ill:) The thought makes me sick to my stomach.I am not critisizing age differences in general BUT when there is a 60 year age difference that is grounds for a psychological evaluation in my opinion. Good riddance that Hef was dumped by the gold digger.

I heard the "record" she made...it's over-dubbed to mask her voice. The world doesn't need another talentless tart...this one is as crummy as Kim Kardashian's singing debut..

well..i guess the little girl rode the ancient boat captain's wet willy as long as she needed

Did anyone really expect a 25 year old girl to want to marry an 85 year old man? Its publicity, for both of them. And well orchastrated.

By Tony

You correct. I thing they never really thing to get married. It was just for the publicity. Like all other cases.

By ellen

I guess she read the fine print on the pre-nup. I mean be for real only money could turn a beautiful woman on to a dirty old man. Both are nasty. I mean a few years difference on either side doesn't bother me but 60 years it's like screwing your grandpop...gross

By gsaintl

I'm 52, and even I can't imagine sleeping with an 85-year-old has been on Viagra...eeewwwwwwwwwwwwww!!
