It’s been a busy couple of weeks for Holly Madison. Her new special, Holly’s World, premiered on E! Sunday night. I missed the original showing but am hoping to catch a rerun this week. I really liked her on Girls Next Door and can’t image she would be any less entertaining on her own special. If anyone caught the show, let me know what you thought in the comments section below!

Holly also admitted to a new love interest. Life and Style is reporting that Holly is in a relationship with Benji Madden. I must say this is an improvement over some of her past romantic choices! I haven’t heard too many details about this fresh matchup, but it sounds like Twitter played a role in their flirtations. Perhaps Benji got the idea from another Twitter friendly couple in his life?

Speaking of Twitter, Holly used the site to announce another exciting bit of news . . . Kendra Wilkinson gave birth to her first child today. (I had you going there for a minute didn’t I!) According to Yahoo Sports, Kendra and her husband Hank Baskett welcomed Hank Randall Baskett IV in Indianapolis. The little guy weighted in at 9 pounds and 5 ounces – a feat that wasn’t lost on Holly!

Nina Electra Sandal

And speaking of ‘feat,’ take a look at the hot pink pumps Miss Madison wore to the grand opening of BESO restaurant (owned by Eva Longoria-Parker) in Las Vegas. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again – there is nothing like a brightly colored stiletto to spice up a little black dress. If you’re looking to copy her style, take a look at the Nina Electra Sandal. If you’re not completely sold on going pink don’t worry, this shoe comes in four other colors – including black!
