Hugh Hefner went deaf from too much Viagra, but said he’d rather have sex than have his hearing
Hugh Hefner, who died yesterday aged 91, was notorious for popping Viagra like Skittles in order to maintain his very active sex life.
The pills, which have been linked in studies to sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL), apparently left him almost completely deaf, however, with former twin lovers Karissa and Kristina Shannon telling The Sun last year that he had hearing aids and was completely deaf in one ear.
“You have to lean down and talk into his good ear for him to understand you,” Karissa said.
“We could sit right next to him and he wouldn’t have a clue what we said.”
But it seems this didn’t give Hefner pause or leave him with any regret, with Karissa adding: “He said he would rather have sex than have his hearing.”
What a playboy.

Hugh Hefner interview: ‘Playboy was not a sex magazine, as far as I was concerned’
“Let’s get this straight” says Hefner, speaking on the phone from California. “Playboy was not a sex magazine, as far as I was concerned. Sex was simply part of the total package; I was trying to bring sex into the fold of a healthy lifestyle. When Penthouse and Hustler came along they confused what I was trying to do. Before they arrived, we were perceived as a sophisticated men’s magazine.”
