Playboy.com: What's new this season on Party @ the Palms?
Jenny McCarthy: We're currently taping our second season, and it's a lot different than the first. I've incorporated a lot more sketches. I dress up as Elvis with a pompadour and marry people in a church. I have an act at the Palms where I'm a lounge singer, and it's completely twisted. I go to convention centers dressed as a 1980s retro workout superstar. I've try to make it more comedic and less host-y.
Playboy.com: Are you a fan of Hef's E! show, The Girls Next Door?
McCarthy: I like the show. Even I am interested in seeing what they do all day long. I stayed there when Hef was married to Kimberley. Things were very different. There were Big Wheels outside -- the kids were living there -- and Kimberley really didn't let you come near Hef at all. Smart girl. It was very restricted. It wasn't like it is at all now. I'm grateful because I probably would have been a porn star. (laughs)
Playboy.com: There's a maxi pad episode in Dirty Love that rivals any of the potty gags in There's Something About Mary, American Pie and The 40 Year-Old Virgin. Has something like that ever happened to you in real life?
McCarthy: The worst thing happened to me at a Playboy signing. I was taking a red-eye flight from L.A. to Chicago for an autograph signing. I'm freaking out thinking I'll never be able to sleep on the plane. My friend says, "Take this blue pill and you'll sleep great!" So I take it on the plane, and the next thing I know the flight attendants are shaking me to wake me up. I couldn't even walk. I went into the bathroom in the airport to change, and tried to get on this one-piece red jumper. I fluffed my hair up and put on some makeup. I was still fucked up. The limo driver picked me up. I passed out in the car. I got to the signing, and I sat down. I was sick and dizzy and completely out of it.
Playboy.com: Carmen Electra is a surprise in the movie. You don't even know it's her until the end credits.
McCarthy: I've never seen a white girl play black as well as Carmen Electra. She's slept with enough black guys so she was able to play it. (laughs)
Playboy.com: You have a lot of guy friends. Can most straight guys be friends with girls?
McCarthy: No. Straight guys have a really hard time being friends with girls because they want to fuck them. They're always trying a little something to get in there. Girls can maintain a friendship as long as they don't put out for them even though they want to.
Playboy.com: What's the craziest thing you've done to get a guy's attention?
McCarthy: When I like a guy, I attack. And I don't mean just physically. The Scorpio in me goes, "I'm going to get him." I say a bunch of provocative things that are shocking. I would say something like, "Why don't we just fuck now and get it all over with?" to get their attention, and then I make them fall in love with me later.
Playboy.com: Doesn't that scare a lot of guys?
McCarthy: I haven't dated in seven years, but I can still read guys. If they're somewhat timid, I wouldn't go there. I'd use different things. I'd probably fuck with their minds a little bit to turn them on.
Playboy.com: What's the worst date you've ever had?
McCarthy: I'd just gotten out of a really bad relationship, and I said to my girlfriend, "I've never had a one-night stand, ever, and I want one, tonight." I looked around the bar and I picked up the bouncer. He took off work and we got in his car. It was uncomfortable; he stopped at 7-Eleven to pick up a condom. I kept thinking, "I can't believe I'm doing this, but I've got to in my lifetime because I've always been in relationships." So we went back to his place and had the worst sex ever. He plops over to the side because he's finished, and says, "Are you hungry?" I, being a Chicago girl, said, "Yeah! I'm hungry! I want a Big Mac." So he puts on his pants and leaves. So I'm laying there going, "Oh, my God. This is so weird and bad, and I'm never doing this again." I'm waiting. And I'm waiting. And I'm waiting. An hour and a half goes by. Seven a.m., he never came back. He completely ditched me in his own apartment after sleeping with me. So I put on my skirt and my bad heels and fucking walked all the way home.
Playboy.com: What's the craziest thing you've ever done to get back at a guy?
McCarthy: Got really famous. Come on, what better revenge is there than that?
Party @ the Palms airs Wednesday nights at 10 p.m. ET/PT on E! Entertainment Television.
