Kendra Wilkinson’s engagement to Hank Baskett III, while reportedly endorsed by the Playboy mansion, seems to be, in actuality, quite a nightmare for everyone involved.

According to Ted Casablanca:

As you probably were aware, plans were already majorly in the works, with Hugh Hefner’s blessing, not to mention participation, for Kendra to leave GND for her own show. “It was supposed to be Kendra, sexy and single, out of the mansion, on her own,” said a source close to the deal.

But here’s what’s gone down:

Kendra’s engagement to Hank “caught Hef way off guard,” reveals the Girls Next Door type, who insists H2 was most displeased at the rush to the altar.

“All that you see now, with Hugh saying he’s going to give the bride away, that the wedding’s going to be at the mansion, it’s bull****,” piped the close Kendra chum, who believes Playboy’s put-on-the-spot positive spin won’t really come to pass. Only time and (call me jaded) potential ratings will tell.

Sources inside Wilkinson’s camp do not blame Kendra, they blame Hank: “[Baskett] completely jumped the gun,” insists a Wilkinson colleague. “He showed up with a camera crew and proposed to Kendra on top of the Space Needle; of course Kendra said yes, she’s absolutely thrilled!” (As you can see in the exclusive-to-the-Awful-Truth snap above.)

But not Hef. Nor are the folks who are trying to turn Kendra into the next viable Pam Anderson type, only without the sex tapes.

OMG.

Did anyone think that girl would make it thirty seconds without landing directly on top of a football player? Pretty much every single episode of GND consisted of Kendra finding a veiled way to say “I cannot wait until this shit is over and I can fuck football players.” I’m sorry, but this is not a shock to me.

All six puppies are now in one giant wrestling match. They are squealing and growling and rolling all over each other.

I may just spend the remainder of the day liveblogging puppy cam. Sorry if you wanted celebrity gossip. Celebrity gossip isn’t going anywhere, kids. But the puppies are here now.
