After spending five years in the Playboy mansion as Hugh Hefner’s third girlfriend, the 23-year-old reality TV starlet is trying to make it on her own as she launches a new line of stripper poles that’s coming to a store near you.
“I’m coming out with my own stripper pole. Stripper pole, and stripper pole workout,” the former Girls Next Door star told Usmagazine.com at the American Red Cross Red Tie Affair in Santa Monica Saturday.

“It’s like Carmen Electra’s, but mine is better,” she added. “Mine will connect to the ceiling, and you can spin on it and do all that stuff on it.”
Aside from her new pole business, Wilkinson is also busy promoting her new E! reality series, which will follow her life after the Playboy mansion, specifically her engagement and marriage to Philadelphia Eagles receiver Hank Baskett.
“It’s been fun,” Wilkinson said of taping the series, which premieres this summer. “A lot of work, but fun. I’m used to Holly and Bridget, but now it’s just me. My show’s kind of — our show — is kind of like I Love Lucy, but newlyweds. It’s funny.”
Of course, Wilkinson is also making room for all the preparations for her wedding, which will take place on June 27 at the Playboy mansion, where The Girls Next Door is being filmed.
“Still working on the dress,” Wilkinson told Us. “We’re talking to a really cool florist. He’s making the flowers amazing — 6-foot centerpieces! It’s going to look like a fair-tale wedding. I’m really excited about it.”
