A former Playboy Bunny has shared the strict rules that they had to follow while living in the mansion.
The Playboy Mansion was bought by Hugh Hefner in 1971 and it soon earned quite the reputation.
It was well known for celebrity parties, where the biggest stars in Hollywood would visit.
But there have also been reports of disturbing behaviour – such as assaults and drug abuse.
A former Playboy Bunny – who was at one point extremely close to Hefner – has now spoken about the strict rules she had to follow while living there.

Jenna Bentley lived in the ‘Bunny House’ – which is next door to the mansion – from 2007 to 2008.
She moved into the property at 18 years old and described her time there as a ‘dream come true’.
But Bentley also acknowledged that you had to obey Hefner’s orders – otherwise, you would get evicted from the property.
“I’m pretty sure they did quite strict background checks because they have to make sure you’re not a serial killer,” she explained, via the Daily Mail.
“I mean, even though we had a 9pm curfew it wasn’t like we were prisoners. Although if you missed curfew you were sleeping on the lawn. They were very strict about it.
“And we weren’t allowed to have boyfriends, like, even meeting boys was an immediate kick-out.”
Bentley also spoke about the luxuries of living there and compared it to a ‘real-life Barbie playhouse’.
She continued: “This place we lived at had movie theatres, animals, trampolines, stylists. It was a real-life Barbie playhouse.
“There were servants doing all the cooking and cleaning. There was a phone that we called ‘Dial-a-Dream’ because you could press 0 and ask for anything you wanted, any time of day or night.
“Like, if I wanted McDonald’s fries at 3am, they would go out and get it.”
Bentley also spoke about the fond memories she had there, including the parties where she would see celebrities such as Angelina Jolie, Pamela Anderson and Dennis Rodman – as well as her relationship with Hefner who she claimed ‘had a heart of gold’.
Meanwhile, Holly Madison – who lived in the iconic property from 2001 to 2008 – has also spoken publicly about the ‘restrictive’ rules that she and the other Bunnies had to follow while living at the mansion.
While appearing on the Power: Hugh Hefner podcast, the former model – who was once regarded as Hugh Hefner’s ‘number one girl’ – said that staff would ‘joke about’ the rules because they ‘sounded so silly’.
Madison said: “I knew that was a rule before I moved in, but I didn’t mind that rule for myself personally, because I was just at a phase in my life where I wasn’t interested in going out partying on my own time.”
One of the rules that was set was that the Bunnies could not have their own apartment, however, Madison revealed that some of them did have places and kept it a secret from the Playboy Founder.
Madison added that Hefner wasn’t just interested in controlling the Bunnies’ love life but he also set unrealistic expectations of their appearance.
The model explained: “You were expected to look a certain way obviously, you had to have the blonde hair.
“There was pressure on what you wore, because you were given $1000 (roughly £750) a week that was supposed to be a clothing allowance.”

She added: “So there was always this back and forth where he would want to not give the girls as much money, and they would have to come back and ask for it. It was weird.
“So there was this weird balancing act of trying to make it look like I had so much to show for that money, but save a little bit away so I could live if I decided to leave at a moment’s notice.”
Other alleged rules that have been made public include the models not being allowed to wear red lipstick and having to sign NDAs upon moving into the house.
