Crystal Hefner is telling all on the celebrity regulars who frequented her late husband Hugh’s Playboy mansion — and the A-listers who were “horrible.” “There were really horrific, horrible men that came through the mansion,” Crystal — host of the “After the Mansion” podcast — told Page Six in an exclusive interview. “It was tough, Hef surrounded himself by like-minded men, Bill Cosby included, Donald Trump included, and it was very sad. “We know Cosby is a regular,” Hugh’s widow went on to claim. “Bill Cosby hosted the Playboy Jazz Festival for many, many years. And I remember one day we show up to the Playboy Jazz Festival and usually we have to take the picture with Bill Cosby and it’s awkward and he was always gross.” Crystal Hefner (pictured above in her interview with Page Six) has revealed the A-list celebrities who frequented the Playboy Mansion. Page Six Crystal dubbed some of the men who frequented the mansion as “horrible.” Page Six Crystal, 40, claimed comedian and actor George Lopez took over the Playboy Jazz Festival in 2013 — despite Cosby acting as the master of ceremonies since 1979. “George Lopez was always very, very, very nice,” Crystal insisted. “He never came to the mansion.” Crystal went on to claim the Playboy Mansion was nicknamed “Jack Nicholson’s drive-thru.” “He could drive up, there’d be women there, there’d food there, and he would just collect what he needed and left,” she alleged. “We all know that that man is also notorious for being a regular, very regular at the mansion.” Crystal dubbed Bill Cosby (pictured with Hugh in 2011) as “gross.” WireImage She also named dropped George Lopez (pictured in 2013 at the festival) — though said he never actually went to the Playboy Mansion.

The model also exposed that one of the hallways in the $100 million mansion featured a gallery of “misogynistic, horrible” celebs Hugh was “obsessed with” — including Cosby and allegedly Arnold Schwarzenegger. “There was the photos in the gallery of Arnold Schwarzenegger and he has a girl sitting on each bicep,” she recalled. But not every celebrity who entered the mansion or had close ties to Hugh — who was 91 at the time of his death — were bad, as Crystal said, “Some of the good guys were mostly the women.” “A lot of the women that came by were good, good celebrities,” she said, calling “Catwoman” star Julie Newmar “wonderful.” Hugh said the mansion had been dubbed “Jack Nicholson’s drive-thru” because of how often he went.

GC Images “I remember Mark Hamill and his wife [Marilou York] would come up there for a party every once in a while from “Star Wars” and they were lovely…” On Tuesday, Hefner branded actor Jon Lovitz as Playboy Mansion’s “No. 1 customer” on the “Lisa Guerrero Unleashed” podcast, referring to him as “one of the biggest pervs” in Hollywood. “He would be up there all the time,” Crystal said of Lovitz at the infamous mansion. “His eyes would go front to back [looking at] all the women that walked through the door at the party.” The “Saturday Night Live” alum responded to her claims in a video obtained by Page Six filmed Tuesday night in Los Angeles, “Any time someone says I’m No. 1, it’s a compliment.” Crystal branded Jon Lovitz “one of the biggest pervs.” GC Images The infamous Playboy Mansion is pictured above. Courtesy Everett Collection He added of the late Playboy founder, “Hugh Hefner was one of the nicest, most generous people I’ve ever met and all of his friends know it.” A rep for Hugh’s estate did not respond to Page Six’s request for comment. In Crystal’s interview with Page Six, she fired back at Lovitz for mocking her, “I think Jon Lovitz is part of the problem. I think many men who came up to that mansion [and] were very sexist and misogynistic are all part of that problem.” She added, “If I could dismantle that toxic masculinity and patriarchy just a little bit, I will feel happy. It’s very sad.” Crystal accused her late husband of rape and incest. WireImage Crystal said the incest involved Kristina and Karissa Shannon (pictured above.) WireImage Also on the podcast episode, she accused the late Playboy founder of sexual abuse in their relationship. Crystal accused the businessman of “starting to try and shove twins [Kristina and Karissa Shannon’s] heads onto each other’s vaginas to get them to engage with each other sexually.” “That is incest. That is disgusting,” Crystal said. “I didn’t want them to have to do something like that with each other. So that was very, very hard.” A rep for Kristina and Karissa didn’t respond to Page Six’s request for comment. However, Karissa previously claimed that having sex with Hugh was “like rape.” Crystal also claimed Hugh would force her and the other playmates to use dirty sex toys, alleging, “I remember him pulling them out and one of them was a black, double-sided one. You could see they were dirty and he’s just grabbing us and grabbing our crotches and grabbing these dirty [sex toys] and just shoving them in us.” Crystal and Hugh (pictured in 2011) were married from 2012 until his death in 2017.

Getty Images Crystal told Page Six in our interview, “I’m not afraid anymore. “There were people that lived with me that were hurt, and I just think it’s not okay, and it’s a bad example to set for humanity moving forward.” Crystal is currently working towards her PhD after graduating with a Master’s Degree in psychology on November. She was married to Hugh from 2011, until his death in 2017. Community Guidelines Welcome to the Page Six Community! Our community is about connecting people through open and thoughtful conversations.
