    Insider rumor but word is Playboy mag will shut down after 55th anniv edition

    Rumor from a bunny is that Hef may be shutting down production of Playboy magazine,
    including any digital versions. Sales and profits are down huge for the magazine as most people know.

    He's pretty old and staff and family are pissed he keeps throwin so many $250,000 parties..
    they just can't afford it anymore..

    Apparently after the 55th anniv edition comes out, they're gonna wrap it..

    Some brunette got the 55th anniv centerfold..
    Even though she qualified for the spread, she brought a few of her friends into
    hefs bedroom to seal the deal. Invigorating.

    Let's all hold hands now and sing Kumbayah in honor of all the
    years of gorgeous hotties showin us their hot bodies...

      I don't see this happening... they can keep it going a bit longer on their brand name alone...

        blame the damn noob kids these days that are too cheap to spend a few dollars buying a magazine or a site membership and just steal all the nude celeb pics off the internet they can, now who is going to offer the $million dollar incentives for hottie famous actresses to get nude when they get in their 30's?

                      he didnt bang jenny mccarthy or even pam anderson.. but many others.. he's got it down, he get a helluva lot of puss from his playmates and even their friends who want to pose.. no surprise really..

                      he's really insecure though.. they're all after his $$$$$ ;)

                      back to topic.. he could keep the playboy channel going, but then what? It'll turn into
                      an MTV type thing where theres all shows and no playboy girls anymore. Production has stopped there too.

                        Look for Playboy to rebound now that Eric is running shit. That is if they aren't stupid and allow him to do some things with the playboy.com site.

                          I find it hard to believe that the girl had to bring a bunch of girls to hef's room to seal the deal. He is a very old man. I think it would be smart go out with class as opposed for it to crash and burn and be picked up by gods knows who. Turning the brand into a joke of what it once was.

                              Why would they tell some bunny this? From what I understand they are publicly traded, I can't imagine you would just leak such important information like that to some model. Sounds like that could even get you in jail...

                                At least PB is on the top of the adult affiliate program advertising business now.

                                  They dont necessarily tell the girls anything.. its what they overhear staff dealing with and talking about. Christie stepping down was the first part of it. I never said it was true. At the end of the day its just a rumor, and frankly I think it would suck to see PB go.

                                  I hope he can keep the digital edition going and continue choosing playmates, throwing at least a few parties per year. They make decent money from sponsored parties so it only makes sense.

                                    well you sort of misunderstood that, Eric is NOT running Playboy (yet) he's running Playboy Cash, GFY and Reality Cash

                                          At least they have someone who knows whats going on in charge, perhaps any changes that come around will be even better and withstand the economy by being creative in the media/online area. and Eric has that, where its needed.
                                          When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I’ve never tried before.

                                                        If Hef ever ends up leaving Playboy he'd probably end up selling it way before he closes up shop. It's a well known brand by people all over the world and very popular.

                                                            So damn true, a lot of big names already gone down this year and it aint over yet.

They'll never go out of business. Playboy could stop doing everything and just lease out their brand to companies for products and make a killing. That is probably where the money is in the future. Whether it's Playboy merchandise, themed restaurants, or video games.
