And thanks to the late publisher’s widow, Crystal Hefner, we now have some prolific and star-studded names that visited the Los Angeles property in the past.

In a recent episode of the Carrie and Tommy Podcast, the former Playmate opened up about all the different stars that were regulars at the mansion in the past, namely Hollywood icons like Jack Nicholson and Leonardo DiCaprio, who had quite a bit of encounters there.

Along with that, she revealed how stars who were curious, like pop sensation Justin Bieber and Instagram icon Kylie Jenner, visited the property to witness what all the excitement about it was, saying:

“I remember Jack Nicholson would come there a lot. Random celebrities like Pauly Shore, Corey Feldman [too]. Others came once in a while just to check it out – Justin Bieber, Kylie Jenner. They just came by to check it out, and I understand their curiosity.”

Along with that, she also commented on how she feels DiCaprio is becoming the new Hefner as both of them are known to be in a relationship with a partner much younger than their own age.

Since The Playboy Mansion was a cultural icon despite both the negative and positive reasons for that title, it had to be taken up by someone when it went on sale in 2016 for their own purposes.

Thus, when the auction for this property came to an end, Daren Metropoulos, the son of billionaire Dean Metropoulos became its owner for a whopping $100 Million, which was before a year that Hefner passed away. Since he used to live next door to this iconic property, he had little to think about when it came to purchasing it (via Market Realist).

Today, the mansion is used for different activities such as a location for television production, magazine photography, charitable and corporate events, as well as civic functions.
