Laura Saltman of Access Hollywood was at the Playboy Mansion for the party celebrating the season three premiere of the E! channel’s ‘The Girls Next Door’, and asked for the Playboy boss’s take on the Antonella Barba racy photographs online controversy.

After showing Hugh Hefner the photos, he remarked:

“She really looks sexy here.” Asked if he would consider making Antonella an offer to pose for Playboy should she be voted off ‘Idol’ early, Hef answered, “Very real possibility. Yes, absolutely.”
