Ida Ljungvist: Playboy's 50th Playmate of the Year

Hugh Hefner was back at it this weekend in Las Vegas. Surrounded my more silicon & more blondes, as Playboys held its 50th Playmate of the Year ceremony. After 50 years of monthly editions of scantly clad ladies, you thought you had seen it all, right? Just follow the seemingly patented formula beautiful+blonde+big boobs, and you're golden. 

Hef, the other playmates and subscribers to the magazine went in a different direction as Ida Ljungvist was selected as the 2009 Playmate of the Year. Ida is the first African born Playmate and winner of the Playmate of the Year Award. Ida's mother is Tanzanian and her father is Swedish and she's fluent in English, Swahili and Swedish.  A winning combination if you ask me. Hefner's ex fling, Holly Madison discovered Ida working in the Bebe in Beverly Hills and introduced her to Hef. Ljungvist was Ms. March 2008.  

At the ceremonies, Hefner presented Ida with a check for $100,000, a brand new Mazda 6, and the most absurdly large bottle of Patron I've ever seen. If you're curious, there's other photos of Ida here. You can click on the link if you want, but I'm not posting those photos..Trying to keep in PG around here.. Vanessa Williams and Naomi Campbell didn't even win Playmate of the Year. It's quite an honor. Congrats Ida.
