Hollywood, CA (Hollywood Today) 2/2/2009 – Superbowl Sunday at the mansion was presented as last year by model and actress Brande Roderick. She and twenty other beautiful hand-painted models presented the crowd from Financially Hung the choice of watching the game or watching the girls. Everyone does both.

Financially Hung is Roderick’s social network that includes successful individuals from around the country. The Playboy mansion and Financially Hung hosted their Second Annual Game Day viewing party with invited guests from all around the country.

A common remark among guests is that people are more interested in people-watching than  who’s is going to win, Pittsburgh or Arizona. That is, until the last minutes of the game when Steelers won over Cardinals, a history-making Superbowl win for the sixth time.

Playboy’s 50th Anniversay Playmate Collen Shannon was a busy DJ between commercial breaks and performances from burlesque dance group Strawberry Blonde.

The evening’s finale was an after bowl game concert by rocker-songwriter Bret Michaels of Poison. Contestants from his hit VH-1 reality TV shows, Rock Of Love and Rock Of Love Bus, joined him on stage.

Hugh Hefner and his three new live-in sweethearts Karissa and Kristin Shannon and Crystal Harris arrived late, having just flown in from Tampa, Florida, where they’d hosted a pre-game event.
