Career of Kendra Wilkinson

Kendra Wilkinson met Hugh Hefner at his 78th birthday party in April 2004, where she was hired to be one of the "painted girls" (women who are nude except for painted-on accessories). Hefner had apparently seen her picture, shot by photographer Kim Riley, on a fax machine at the Playboy Mansion and wanted to know who she was. Shortly after they met, Hefner asked Kendra Wilkinson to be one of his girlfriends and he moved her into the Playboy Mansion along with her dogs Raskal and Martini. She was featured on the E! reality television series The Girls Next Door, which follows the lives of Hefner's current girlfriends. She moved out of the Playboy Mansion in 2009 and is participating in a reality show for E! that will follow her in her new life.
