    Hugh Hefner is engaged to be married.

    “When I gave Crystal the ring, she burst into tears. This is the happiest Christmas weekend in memory.”

    The Playboy founder tweeted that line yesterday, on Christmas Day, after he gave an engagement ring to Crystal Harris. She was Miss December of 2009 in Hef’s magazine. No date has been set, but it will be Hugh Hefner’s third marriage.

    The age gap is 60 years — he’s 84, she’s 24.

    Wow.

    This afternoon Hefner tweeted, “Crystal and I are celebrating with friends in the Game House Sunday afternoon, then dinner and a movie.”  Well, good luck, you crazy kids.
