Widow Crystal Hefner is more candid than ever in her debut book, “Only Say Good Things: Surviving Playboy and Finding Myself.”
To People magazine, the former playmate said: “I am ready to tell my story – including the ten years I spent in the Playboy mansion, in the orbit of one of the most powerful, controversial and mythical men in society. “
The former sex model met Hugh Hefner at a party at the Playboy mansion in 2007 when she was just 21 years old. In her memoir, Crystal shares her stolen youth, how she found her way back to herself, and also takes a look “at the final days of one of the most influential men of the 20th century.” Her book aims to tell the story of a woman who has been through enough to be able to speak from the first person about what lies behind the glamorous life of an erotic model. “I want to open the eyes of girls and women who grow up with the belief that their worth is due to how they look,” she added to “People.” “This is the book I wish I had read when I was young.”
Crystal details how her “life changed forever when she attended a party at the famous mansion,” according to the book’s description. After being chosen as one of Hefner’s “girlfriends”, she “travels the world and attends glamorous Hollywood parties”, but is “forced to compete with other women for her place in the highly hierarchical system”.
Crystal, who is 60 years younger than her late husband, lived in the Playboy mansion for a decade. Her memoir will give readers “a clear look at how her cohabitation with Hefner unfolded and how, after him, she learned to value herself more.” The blonde also tells the publication that while she was with Hugh, he dictated everything – including exactly what shade of nail polish to wear. And when he was at the mansion, he announced a curfew for dinner (always at 6:00 p.m.), then his favorite movies were necessarily watched. Crystal is very determined to reveal herself to the world in a different light – who is she without “Playboy”.
