Playboy boss Hugh Hefner is desperate for Nicole Kidman to strip for the cover of his sexy men’s magazine, because he has been “bewitched” by her ever since he saw her perform in stage-play The Blue Room.The magazine mogul fell for the Australian beauty’s charms when she appeared nude on Broadway in 1999, with a performance that was described by critics as “theatrical Viagra”.
He says, “(Kidman)’s bewitching, and the vision of her with a cigarette in one hand and her knickers in the other as a delicious French au pair will haunt my fantasies for months.
“I better add, she’s a terrific actress”
Hugh Hefner says he’s doing just fine. “I’ve never felt better,” the 80-year-old Hefner told The Associated Press when 
asked Monday about a report he was in ill health.
A newspaper gossip item said Monday the Playboy empire founder had a mini-stroke. But Playboy spokesman Rob Hilburger insisted the report was “completely untrue.” Then Hefner got on the phone with assurances he was OK.
“We had a lingerie party Saturday night and I went up a little early because (girlfriend) Holly (Madison) had a cold. I am in very good health,” Hefner said.
Hefner hosted his “Midsummer Night’s Dream” party at the mansion Saturday night and a movie-night gathering the following night, Hilburger said.
Guests at the Saturday party included Luke and Owen Wilson, Jack Black, Johnny Knoxville and Jimmy Kimmel, Hilburger said.
BRITNEY SPEARS posed nude for elegant Harper’s Bazaar, but ran for cover when hubby KEVIN FEDERLINE insisted she should pose naked for Playboy! Bayou Babe was furious when Kevin came home from a party at HUGH HEFNER’s BevHills mansion and told her that the Chief Bunny Rabbit had asked if she’d strip for a tasty-but- tasteful nude cover shot. Worse, admitted K-Fed, he’d told H-Hef that the wife was “really into doing nude layouts.” Fuming, Britney shrieked: NO! Kevin whined that he’d pretty much guaranteed to deliver a naked, pregnant wife — until his Hubby-Alert kicked in and warned him: SHUT UP!!
