MySpace Sexpot Protests Booting from Playboy Cover
Don't let them get you to you, indeed. Blonde, bronzed, and impressively embosomed MySpace sex kitten branding phenom Christine Dolce, a.k.a. ForBiddeN, was most recently famous for hookin' up with Axe lech-stank to host some kind of online game via her page. (An Axe spokesbot intoned, "when you deliver 18- to 24-year-old guys content they want to engage with, they don't mind if it comes from a brand.") And why not — girlfriend has over 900,000 MySpace friends, each of whom is special in their own sweaty way. Due to her vast appeal to those with surplus sex drive/income, Dolce signed on for a Playboy pictorial, and her editor totally assured her she'd get the cover. Unfortunately, the editor was fired, and the furies of disappointment were loosed:
About a week ago I called up Playboy to see how things are going and they give me the word that Mr. Hugh Hefner decided on putting a unknown college girl on the cover instead of me. My heart dropped and sank into the floor. Sadness turned into anger, how could they do this? Do they not understand how powerful and hot Myspace is?
Dolce has a petition going to regain her cover, but really, it's not as if everyone on that list isn't going to buy that issue of Playboy anyway. You go, unknown college girl.
