Hugh Hefner for Stolichnaya Vodka is a Strange Pairing
Robyn Currie — May 27, 2010 — Marketing
Hugh Hefner for Stolichnaya Vodka is like watching your dad dance at a wedding--slightly awkward and makes you feel almost embarrassed for him.
Actually I am not that embarrassed for Hef, as he still has more money than God. I'm also sure he will cry himself to sleep while wiping his eyes with thousand dollar bills after reading this. At any rate, Hugh Hefner for Stolichnaya Vodka is kinda funny, and does a good job poking fun at the Playboy's status as skirt-chaser extraordinaire.
