Wow, 2011 really is becoming a very strange year.

Playboy founder Hugh Hefner said on Tuesday his wedding this weekend has been canceled because his 25-year-old fiance, a Playmate from his magazine, changed her mind.

Hefner, 85, and Crystal Harris were due to tie the knot in front of more than 300 guests at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles on Saturday. It would have been Hefner's third marriage.

"The wedding is off. Crystal has had a change of heart," Hefner wrote on Twitter.

News of the split was first reported by TMZ, which said the couple had "a nasty argument" on the phone over the weekend and Harris moved out of the mansion.

Could be cold feet. Or it could be a ploy to renegotiate the prenup.

Or maybe she had a moment of clarity and realized she must be out of her mind to marry a man sixty years older than she is, regardless of how rich and famous he is.

Or maybe the whole thing was a publicity stunt right from the start.

Or without "e":

It is not hard for crystal to do this thing. It is obviously what crystal wants and I think it's a good call. As soon as Hugh has thought about it, truth will finally occur to him. Wow, this was quite hard. You should try typing this way.

but i just bought a new keyboard, hopefully it will work better.

You may be right about the wedding plans. From the looks of it I would say they were fake.

But publicity for whom? For her? Seems she'd get more when he died, but maybe she found out she wasn't in his will.

He took the best weeks of her life. Now she's too old to do anything but Clairol commercials.

I wonder how much money she's going to miss out on when he dies? The dude's 85, she couldn't have had too much longer to put up with him.
