I am starting to obsess over the show “the girl’s next door” and old issues of playboy. Barbi Benton in particular stands out to me as one of the classic ultimate sex symbols.
She met Hugh Hefner in 1968, when she was booked as “atmosphere” for his t.v. show “Playboy After Dark” which filmed A-list stars performing at hef’s mansion surrounded by Playboy Playmates. She said she pretended to be Hefner’s girlfriend for a couple of episodes and soon found herself living the role full time.
She was 18, he was 42. She was Hef’s girlfriend and lived with him from 1969-1976. She also became a recording star, a Vegas headliner and an actress.
She appeared on an episode of “the girls next door” and the new girls really didn’t care for her - but I googled her that night. I think she is hot as hell and just amazing!
The first classic playboy I bought featured her as Hef’s girlfriend in a spread that was just fun. She was hairy as a russian dairy woman. But it was hot as hell.
I would rather look at her than any of the present day hairless naked mole rats they have in everything now. Enjoy…

She is gorgeous.
Or maybe I’m just blinded by the whole real curves, no silicone or stick figures aspect of it all.

I saw that episode. I think the girls, Holly in specific, didn’t like her, because they felt threatened by her. She had a history with Hef, before they were ever born, and she appears to be brighter and more mature. If Hef was a little more mature, he would have stayed with her.
I’m there with you. It’s funny how the idea of sexy changed. I’m not going to lie; I’m not going to kick a modern shaved women out of bed, but they aren’t as sexy as the ones with hair.
Hairless naked mole rats…that’s funny.

Yahoo has a story about naked mole rats being immune to pain. Coincidence? It probably comes from getting all those Brazilian waxes.

She’s beautiful! Great post, and yes definitely a lot more class in the girls (pictures at least) and meat on their bones! Much more appealing I would think!

I’ve always admired Barbi’s wholesome appeal. I wish I could have see the episode you just referenced. Nice nips too, btw!
