Nicole Caldwell, Playgirl's editor-in-chief, just confirmed to Media Bistro that the magazine is indeed shuttering its print operation."Playgirl is going all-Web. The last print issue will be the January/February 2009 magazine, which comes out Nov. 18," Caldwell writes.
Details of the site's look are scarce, but it will feature more videos and pictorials and less editorial content. In other words, just like Playboy's site.
Playgirl has always covered soaps and hunks featured on the cover included Antonio Sabato, Jr. (GENERAL HOSPITAL, now NIGHT SHIFT), Lorenzo Lamas (FALCON CREST, and later THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL), Brian Austin Green (KNOTS LANDING, 90210) and Marcus Patrick (DAYS OF OUR LIVES).
