Before the facade of The Girls Next Door came down, Holly Madison and Hugh Hefner both denied that Holly was secretly dating illusionist Criss Angel. Holly said Chris was just a friend, and to trying to keep the news under wraps until he replaced her, Hef adamantly denied Madison could be dating anyone else. Now that Criss Angel and Holly Madison have gone public, I think it’s fair to say that was all another illusion.

Chris and Holly have been spotted kissing and snuggling over the last several weeks in Las Vegas, but remain somewhat coy about their relationship.

“This is one of the most special evenings for me in my life and I can not think of a more beautiful person, a more special person, inside and out, than Holly to spend it with,” Angel said on the opening night of his new Cirque Du Soleil show, “Believe,” in Las Vegas. Aww, that was sweet! Chris Angel might be a sweetheart after all. After all those fame whore rumors I’m actually starting to not mind the guy; If Holly Madison picked him then he can’t be half as bad as the tabloids make him out to be. They even look hell of a lot better together then Holly and 95 year old Hef.

This is another one of those celebrity hocouples that fit. They’re on the same lower celebrity rung so one can’t outshine the other. They make more sense than Angel and Cameron Diaz. Criss Angel really came off as looking like a fame whore in that relationship and some would say the same of Holly Madison with Hef. But that’s all the more reason why they’re ideal for each other. They’re both just famous enough to feed the whoring on either side, but not enough to be a threat to each other.

Criss Angel can give Holly money and the baby she wants, and she can give him arm candy and a smiley magician’s assistant to point and applaud. It’s a win/win situation. I think Mindfreak is awesome, I can’t help it, I like to be entertained by cheesy magic tricks I can’t figure out. Holly is my favorite Hefner girlfriend, too, although I can’t give you a specific reason why. The two of them are prime for a TV show together. E! would be all over it.

MIND FREAK!!!! He might dress like a douche, but Chris Angel was working his magic on the ladies over the weekend at Hyde. After the mind-freak rolled through Hyde, he pulled this cheesy line out of his hat, “I love the way you make me feel, illusion is what you see, magic is what you feel.” After that corny line he managed to take home a qt.

Bad boy Chris Angel 35, was getting freaky with the beautiful Cameran Diaz, they deny it even though they’ve been seen together numerous times partying’ it up like rock stars in sin city. His marriage is on the rocks…gee that’s surprising, I always thought mr. Ta-Da was gay! Now the magic man is out partying it up being extra flirty in a gay abra-cadabra kinda way and people are chewing it up because…he’s a mind-freak! No wonder his wife’s pissed, Mr. ta-da was out partying with super sexy Cameran Diaz and his wife isn’t having it! I’m no physic but I’m sensing a messy DIVORCE, that’s to bad because his not so secret wife is now claiming…that she’s PREGNANT! If only he could make all this craziness disappear! Who doesn’t love a mysterious illusionist, WHAT A BAD BOY or should I say WHAT A DOUCHE-BAG! Watch out ladies all this craziness in his life is sending him straight to the gay bar!
