Former Playboy Bunny recalls her 'mortifying' experience with Hugh Hefner

Former playmate Holly Madison described her sex life with Hugh Hefner as “hell” and “traumatic.”

Madison and fellow ex-playmate Heather McDonald went all in about life in the Playboy Mansion and their intimate experiences with the Playboy founder in the first episode of their podcast, Girls Next Level.

“He wouldn’t move. He would be like a bump on the log in the middle of the bed,” Madison, 42, specifically said of her sexual experiences with Hefner.

The reality TV star added that the women at the mansion “wanted to get [the sex] over with as quickly as possible” because they weren’t “into it.”

“We thought of it as a chore that we had to do or else we’ll get kicked out of the house. Everybody just wanted to make it go by as quickly as possible,” the Holly’s World star said.

And group sex was not going to make it any better either. Both McDonald and Madison agreed that it was “embarrassing” and noted there were high levels of tension among the women.

“I can’t explain to you guys how embarrassing that whole routine was, especially as we got later down the road when there would be a lot of conflict with the other girls,” Madison continued.

“You’re literally sitting there naked having sex in front of a group of people who hate you and talk sh*t about you while you’re having sex — and you can hear it. It was just like hell.”

The Vegas Diaries author further went into detail about the first night she had sex with Hefner — who died in 2017 at 91 — and said she was “so f***ing wasted” after a party in Los Angeles.

While taking a bath with other girls, another playmate, who was referred to as “the recruiter,” allegedly called out to Hefner and said, “Daddy … Do you wanna get the new girl?”

“I sh*t you not, next thing I know he’s on top of me,” Madison said. “I just remember feeling so gross and so used.”

She went on to say that she felt like there was “no other option” than to move into the mansion and “be a girlfriend” after the first night she was intimate with Hefner.

“I think that whole experience [of living in the mansion] was traumatic to me,” Madison concluded.

She went on to date Hefner from 2001 to 2008 before moving on with music festival promoter Pasquale Rotella.

The two — who met in 2011 and share two kids — got married in 2013. By 2018, they called it quits and finalised their divorce a year later.
