Former Girls Next Door star Holly Madison is leaving LA for Las Vegas as she prepares to film her own reality TV show. Holly, 29, left the Playboy mansion in October last year after splitting up with Hugh Hefner, 83. He is reportedly selling his porn empire as well, UK reports have claimed this week.
She will still be taking it off, and has since landed a role in the burlesque show Peepshow. Talking about her plans, she said: “I start in Peepshow at Planet Hollywood [in Las Vegas] on June 22, and there is a lot of dancing involved.” She added: “I’m very excited and making the big move tonight for the rest of my life, hopefully!”

Holly also revealed she will be starring in her own reality show, which will follow her in new show Peepshow. She said: “I am doing a reality show around my Vegas show, which will be fun.” Holly starred in the reality show Girls Next Door with Hefner and his other girlfriends Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt when she was at the mansion.
She added: “I am used to having the cameras around, and you do become friends with the guys behind the scenes; they become part of your extended family and you have fun with them!”

Bridget Marquardt, former girlfriend of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner on The Girls Next Door, won’t be walking the aisle anytime soon despite rumors that she and her new boyfriend, Nicholas Carpenter, are getting serious. In fact, she’s not in a hurry to get engaged and is far from thinking about her own nuptials at this point in her life.
“No, not engaged – not even talking about that kind of stuff! I’m happy just to be dating and I think things are perfect as they are,” she said at the premiere party for her new Travel Channel series, Bridget’s Sexiest Beaches, held at the Playboy Mansion.
Marquardt is, however, excited about Girls Next Door costar Kendra Wilkinson’s upcoming wedding where she will serve as her bridesmaid.
Carpenter and Marquardt have been dating for several months now. When asked if Hefner likes her boyfriend, Marquardt replied, “Yes he does! Hef said that Nick’s a really nice guy, and that as long as I wanted, he’s welcome at the mansion anytime I’m there, and at all the parties and events.”
“He’s so cute, he’s so sweet, he’s really supportive, he makes me laugh,” she gushed over her guy. “I could go on and on!”
Hefner’s new girlfriends, the Shannon twins, on the other hand, said they can’t wait to watch Bridget’s new show on Thursday nights and they’ll be voting for former Girls Next Door star and Hefner’s former number 1 girlfriend, Holly Madison, on Dancing with the Stars.
Since moving out of the Playboy Mansion, where The Girls Next Door is being filmed, in January, Marquardt has been focused on “becoming her own person.” This includes landing her own TV series called Bridget’s Sexiest Beaches, which kicked off on March 12 at 10pm on the Travel Channel.
