Ananova:

Hugh Hefner wants Britney Spears to appear in his Playboy magazine.

The 77-year-old told Us Weekly magazine: "Britney would make a great girlfriend."

"Picasso had his pink period and his blue period. I am in my blonde period right now," he said.

Hefner said he'd also like to see the 22-year-old Spears appear as a Playmate, as well as Catherine Zeta Jones.

"They really epitomise the type of beauty that we like in the magazine," he said.
