PLAYBOY readers are going to need glasses for a close look at the upcoming issue of the magazine - 3D glasses.

The centrefold picture in the June edition will be in 3D.

"It's kind of neat," Playboy spokeswoman Theresa Hennessey said of the picture of 2010 Playmate of the Year Hope Dworacyzk.

"There's a wine glass that she's holding and when you stand back with the glasses on that comes right out at you," she said.

"You kind of really feel like you're in, so to speak, in the pictorial with her."

Playboy's first 3D centrefold comes about six months after the magazine ran a photo spread featuring a cartoon character - a scantily clad Marge Simpson from the hit television show The Simpsons.

"We're constantly trying to do new creative, innovative things to engage our readers," Ms Hennessey said.

"But I don't think we'll be having 3D centrefolds in every issue."
Playboy founder Hugh Hefner said he "wanted to create a 3D pictorial for the very first issue of Playboy, but didn't have enough money to include the 3D glasses".

"I think Playboy fans will enjoy seeing our Playmate of the Year's true form," he said.

yea i just saw that on the local news, but wasn't to excited about it. i'm not a fan of playboy, but this 3-d thing does catch my interest. a lot movies are coming out as 3-d and now they even manage to bring the 3-d experience to your home with 3-d tv's. guess this might be the next best thing lol 3-d porno mags or maybe 3-d porno movies.

I'm not so sure I'd like the 3d pornos idea. Might be a bit traumatic to have the main lead pull out and spray in your general direction just as you're about to finish too.

so...only the wine glass pops out? i'd prefer it was her parts....

With all the new media coming out in 3D, wonder when the first 3D XXX video is going to come out? Just imagine the money shot, might scare the living crap out you when you least expect it

Not a 3D fan at all.  I don't really see the point in it frankly but then again I am old fashioned.

I am a bit curious about the 3D effect though!

here comes the first step to 3-D porn i think we actually talked about this very thing in another thread and now here it is, its real! haha

The problem with 3D is still the loss of detail/fidelity whatever you want to call it.  It is a great special effect, but it comes with a loss of detail related to slight imperfections in alignment.

I saw my first real 3d movie about 2 years ago. Not a show. But an actual movie. The first thing that popped into my head was "gee, wonder when they are going to make 3D porn. Someone is bound to do it sooner or later. Then i saw a 3D TV commercial on TV. I thought "bingo". Someone is definitely going to do a 3D porn bluray. LOL

Yeah, 3D porn, coming soon to a DVD player near you!  It sounds like a good thing, but just imagine that classic camera angle where the guy's plowing the girl in mish and the camera is shooting from between the guy's legs.  It's a pretty ugly shot with the guy's hairy ass framing the top of the pic, but now imagine that hairy fat ass coming out of the screen at you!

I think I'll stick to black and white french postcards from 1900.

Porn is always at the cutting edge, it was porn that caused the explosive expansion of VHS recorders, followed by DVD players, the internet, wide screen TV and now 3D.

I would think the 3D format best suited to POV style porn.

Then again... i figure that the 3D stuff must cost more to make. With so much free porn out on the internet nowadays, i would imagine that the higher budget porno companies must be suffering. So maybe not all companies will have the means to produce the 3D films like that. Or perhaps cost will come down as more people are shooting in 3D.

White woman 'gives birth to black child' after watching black porn star on 3D TV

HERE'S one warning Samsung didn't put in the box for their 3D TVs.
Watching them can make you pregnant.
Or at least that's what internet pranksters would have you believe.
One "Jennifer Johnson" this week appeared to claim she suffered a hi-def 3D divine intervention while her soldier husband "Eric" was away serving in Iraq.
She said she was watching a pornographic movie with her friends when she came over "all dizzy", the story claimed.
A month later, she realised she was pregnant and eventually became the proud mother of a dark-skinned boy.
What's even more amazing is she and her husband were both white.
Ms Johnson said her 3D baby was "very much like the black porn star in the movie".
And if you, like most people, leapt to the conclusion that Mr Johnson might have been played for a fool — think again.
"I see it as suspicious," he said.
"The films in 3D are very real. With today's technology, anything is possible."
The story is, of course, a hoax. But it fooled many tech websites, including Gizmodo — that of the "stolen" iPhone 4G fame.
A Google search for Gizmodo's version of the story, or any other, now comes up blank because unfortunately, while the original story was fake, the photo accompanying it wasn't.
Mediaite reports that the site that set up the hoax, Sensacionalista, simply grabbed a random image of a woman and child from the internet to go with the fake story.
Yesterday, Sensacionalista was left looking a little foolish itself after it was forced to apologise to the woman and child in the picture.
Apparently she had been quickly identified and had rapidly become the subject of ridicule in her home town.
"A week ago we published an article about the woman who claimed to get pregnant after watching a porn movie 3d," the site said.
"The article was fake and we used the photo that we found on the internet.
"Unfortunately, the article spread around the world because some sites thought that it was real. That was not our intention.
"Sensacionalista is a small site from Brazil. We never thought that this could happen. That’s why we are asking this family to accept our sincere apology.
"That woman and her baby in the photo had nothing to do with this article. They are just a normal family trying to live their own lives.
"We apologise for wrongfully taking their photo and putting it in our article.
"Please, not to publish this article again and next time check what you read before you write. This site is a humour site. Nothing here is real."
