Playboy readers are going to need glasses for a close look at the upcoming
issue of the magazine -- 3-D glasses.
The centerfold picture in the June edition of Playboy will be in 3-D,
Playboy spokeswoman Theresa Hennessey said Tuesday.
"It's definitely eye-popping," Hennessey said of the 3-D centerfold
featuring 2010 Playmate of the Year Hope Dworacyzk.
"There's a wine glass that she's holding and when you stand back with the
glasses on that comes right out at you," the spokeswoman said. "You really feel
like you're, so to speak, in the pictorial with her."
A pair of 3-D glasses like those that helped the film "Avatar" shatter box
office records will be included with the issue of the magazine which hits US
newsstands on Friday.
Playboy's first 3-D centerfold comes about six months after the magazine
ran a photo spread featuring a cartoon character -- a scantily clad Marge
Simpson from the hit television show "The Simpsons."
"We're constantly trying to do new creative, innovative things to engage
our readers," Hennessey said. "But I don't think we'll be having 3-D centerfolds
in every issue."
Playboy founder Hugh Hefner said he "wanted to create a 3-D pictorial for
the very first issue of Playboy, but didn't have enough money to include the 3-D
glasses.
"I think Playboy fans will enjoy seeing our Playmate of the Year's true
form," Hefner added in a statement.
