Holly Madison Is Broken Up Over Hef & Is Trying To Move On!!!!!!!

“I wanted everyone to know, because I don’t like to pretend,” she
told E! News of her decision earlier this month to come clean about her
breakup with Hef. “You know, I wear my heart on my sleeve, and I want
everyone to know what I’m thinking.”

While the rumor mill has been consistently buzzing about a possible
romance between Madison and unlikely celeb chick magnet Criss Angel,
the Playmate is maintaining that the only relationship she has with the
Las Vegas illusionist is a platonic one. “Oh my god, we’re friends,”
she said at Monday night’s Bowling for Boobies breast-cancer
fundraiser. “I like him, but we are too busy. We’re not, like, dating
or anything.” Nor are they likely to anytime soon.

“I’m not looking for a guy right now—I’m in love with myself. Everybody
should be in love with themselves.” And while she’s clear about the
fact that she and Hef are no longer an item, she’s not one to kiss—or
not kiss, as the case may be—and tell. “I’m doing really good. I want
to let Hef talk about [the breakup] for the next couple weeks…I’m being
quiet, but I’m doing really good.”

To prove just how good she’s doing, Madison is getting ready to take
her permanent leave of the Playboy Mansion, particularly with the next
generation of girlfriends nipping at her heels. “Well, I do have my own
place,” she said. “So I’ve got a place to go, but, you know, I’m kind
of, like, in limbo right now.”

She doesn’t, however, begrudge her replacements, the arrest-prone
Karissa and Kristina Shannon, despite the fact that their recently
uncovered checkered past came as quite a surprise. “Well, I worked with
them on their Playmate pictorial and obviously I need to get better at
doing my background checks, right? You know, we ask on the application,
‘Have you ever been arrested or convicted?’ and they said no, so I took
that at face value, but if Hef doesn’t care, than who am I to care,
right?”
