Bridget Marquardt: 'The Girls Next Door' Was 'Our Thing' - November 13, 2009 - By: Nicholas White <http://insidetv.aol.com/bloggers/nicholas-white/> Make that another of the original 'Girls Next Door' who doesn't watch the new 'Girls Next Door.' "I don't watch it," Bridget Marquardt<http://television.aol.com/celebs/bridget-marquardt/2117765/main>told Inside TV at Thursday's Nu Pop Movement launch party in Beverly Hills, hosted by Jermaine Dupri, adding that she has no interest in 'The Girls Next Door,' <http://television.aol.com/show/the-girls-next-door/215415/main> on E! "I had trouble watching it even when we were on it," the Playboy model says. "I was just weird about watching myself on TV. Now, I don't want to watch it because I feel like it was our thing. And I don't want to go there." She says of Hugh Hefner<http://television.aol.com/celebs/hugh-hefner/1800203/main>'s 'Girls Next Door' new cast, Karissa and Kristina Shannon, both 19, and Crystal Harris <http://television.aol.com/celebs/crystal-harris/2116809/main>, 23, who debuted as the stars of the sixth season premiere Oct. 11, "I don't know them. I have done a few things with Hef they were at, but I don't know them." Of the other two original Girls Next Door, Holly Madison<http://television.aol.com/celebs/holly-madison/491046/main>appeared on 'Dancing With the Stars' <http://television.aol.com/dancing-with-the-stars/> earlier this year, and Kendra Wilkinson<http://television.aol.com/celebs/kendra-wilkinson/491045/main>starred in a reality show for E!, 'Kendra,' <http://television.aol.com/show/kendra/10504984/main> following her pregnancy and engagement to Hank Baskett. Madison has been loathe to watch the show's new incarnation. She told Fox News<http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2009/11/06/exclusive-holly-madison-gets-annoyed-new-girls-door/>recently, "I don't watch the other episodes though, because it kind of makes me mad. The girls need to focus on what makes them unique and not doing the same things Bridget, Kendra and I have already done on the show." Marquardt hosts the Travel Channel show 'Bridget's Sexiest Beaches,'<http://television.aol.com/show/bridgets-sexiest-beaches/10419163/main>in addition to entertaining offers for some "formatted shows," she says, hinting she could reunite with her 'Girls Next Door' costars. "We have a couple things that we are thinking about doing together, and things going on separately," Marquardt says. "But I don't want to jinx anything yet, nothing official. Reality [TV]-based, definitely. But maybe there is a docu-series being talked about, and also some formatted shows. Like hosting Travel Channel type stuff, so we will see. We will see what pans out and is going to be the best in the long run." http://insidetv.aol.com/2009/11/13/bridget-marquardt-girls-next-door/ -- Mister Coke [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
