Kendra Wilkinson got a jump on her birthday celebration last night, attending game 3 of the NBA finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics with boyfriend Hugh Hefner, then continuing the party at Coco de Ville nightclub in Los Angeles.

The Girls Next Door reality star, who turns 23 on Thursday, met the Playboy mogul in 2004 at his 78th birthday party when she was hired to be one of the “painted girls.” Shortly after, Hef asked her to be one of his live-in girlfriends at the Playboy mansion, along with Holly Madison and Bridget Marqardt.

Although Playboy is a men’s magazine, ironically over 70% of the viewers of the popular E! reality show are women.
