Holly Madison is famous for two things: Letting Hugh Hefner put his hands and other body parts on her, and showing us all how much she rilly-rilly hates fur:
“You don’t need fur. And if you want the look of fur … there’s faux fur,” she says. “There is just no reason for it.”
Which must be why this just happened (hat tip to Vegetarian Star):
Must be nice to gain fame and fortune by constantly showing your ass. And then you get to stand next to Holly Madison.
Last week she and Carrot Top were crowned “Ice Queen and King” at the first anniversary of the Minus 5 Ice Lounge in Vegas, an honor bestowed upon (and desired by) few. More importantly, though: What the heck is she wearing?
A commenter at Vegetarian Star says:
Just an FYI, Minus 5 only has faux fur coats. That is why there was no problem when Holly Madison wore the faux fur coat and hat.
Could be, but check out this snippet from the press release for their grand opening last year (emphasis mine):
Ice Weddings
Restrain yourself from making jokes about cold feet, but Minus 5 will certainly be the only Las Vegas venue to perform “ice wedding” ceremonies. With stained “ice” windows and pews, beautiful ice sculptures and ice candelabra, the Minus 5 ice-chapel creates an unparalleled setting for a romantic wedding ceremony. Brides are outfitted with an elegant white satin fur-trimmed cape to keep warm, and all ceremonies are organized in conjunction with the wedding professionals from the Mandalay Bay wedding department.
Talk about a chilly reception! And then there’s this from the Minus 5 site:
Guests can explore the ice lounge and relax on ice couches covered in deer skin…
Sounds comfy. So the briskly bracing bar isn’t really specific about whether or not their furs are real, and they’re not all that worried about Bambi.
Should we give Ms. Madison the benefit of the doubt? Did she keep her promise while keeping her silicone from freezing? If she’s as committed to fakin’ it as she says she is, maybe she should clear things up.
