BACK TALK: Playboy Bunnies, Charlie Sheen and Sofia Vergara's perky "golden globes"

She saw Hef naked ...

Christopher Seybert dishes on the week's best and worst moments in daytime talk.

A Runaway Bride’s Publicity Tour

June is the month to get married, unless of course you’re 85-year-old Hugh Hefner. Last month, his 25-year-old fiancé, Crystal Harris, broke off their engagement, fleeing the Playboy Mansion and public eye until her media tour this week promoting the breakup.

The former Girls Next Door star appeared on The View and The Howard Stern Show this week to reveal a slew of dirt on her May-December romance. Her conversation with Whoopi and the girls was certainly more PG but just as telling. After confessing that she was more intrigued with the Playboy lifestyle than Mr. Playboy himself, she insisted they’re still friends. If so, he may not want to remain amicable after she alleged to Howard Stern that her lone sexual encounter with Hef lasted only two seconds. Guess she missed PR 101 when they discussed never kissing and telling. TMI overload!

The Ex-Files

Sometimes in an actor’s career, they embody a role so well that it becomes a part of them for the rest of their lives — whether they like it or not. Much like Sarah Jessica Parker can never get away from Carrie Bradshaw, Denise Richards will never do an interview without being referred to as Charlie Sheen’s ex-wife, despite being divorced six years.

Denise stopped by the fourth hour of Today to chat with Kathie Lee and Hoda about her new book The Real Girl Next Door. Though some would find it easy to badmouth the man who has complicated her life tremendously in the past year, Denise remained classy and positive saying that she and Charlie talk every day and things are great between them. An interesting section in the book, though, describes her move into Sheen’s bachelor pad where there was a fire pole in her closet, a panic room and a bullet proof bedroom door. If those weren’t warning signs, I don’t know what are.

Fallen Beauty Queen

What’s the difference between beauty pageants and Hollywood award shows? Nothing, if you ask Sofia Vergara’s family back in Colombia.

Sofia explained on Wednesday’s Live! with Regis and Kelly that beauty pageants are like the Super Bowl in Latin America. So when she was nominated for a Golden Globe for her comedic acting ability in January, the cultural disconnect led her family to believe she was competing in an American beauty pageant. And when she lost to Jane Lynch, her family couldn’t understand why because of how beautiful Sofia’s dress, hair and makeup were. Playing along, after her defeat Sofia tweeted, “Me robaron la corona,” meaning “She stole my crown.” But she didn’t feel bad for too long, quickly tweeting, “I don't care!!! I already have my Golden Globes!!!!!! Hahhahha.” That’s the spirit; after all, two is always better than one!
