...jilted lothario-to-be rebounded. Hef's fixation with sex sharpened after Alfred Kinsey released his famous 1948 study. The following year, he married his high-school sweetheart, Millie Williams. But he soon began bristling at the constraints of monogamy. Risque parties quickly gave way to experiments like wife-swapping (with his brother!) and even a one-time homosexual tryst...
...never stopped writing - the Nobel citation lists 43 works in French - and rarely stopped traveling: in addition to France and Africa, he has spent years living in Mexico and Central America. Now 68, he and his wife, who is Moroccan, divide their time among Mauritius, Nice and Albuquerque, N.M.

Predictable but pithy, Wife takes itself no more seriously than the Hollywood-haves it skewers...
...myself that sometimes. The good news is that I do have great relationships with my children, with my ex-wife. I've had a few personal relationships that the world watched. If you have two or three girlfriends that you decide to go separate ways with, everybody watches that and says it feels like 20 or 30. My life has been an open book, and I've allowed it to be that way. I don't know that I would do that again in the future. The only failure I can see in my life is being divorced...
