Eddie Cibrian Defends ‘The Playboy Club’

Eddie Cibrian is defending his NBC show, “The Playboy Club,” against those who think it’s too sexy for TV or exploits women. He believes the controversy stems from people who haven’t seen the show at all and it is more about “their preconceived ideas for the Playboy brand.” Cibrian says, “There are things on TV that exploit women and just exploit people in general that are a lot worse” than his show, like, for instance, reality shows. Meanwhile, if “The Playboy Club” stays on the air long enough, there’s a chance Cibrian’s wife will be on it. LeAnn Rimes may end up playing a singer from the early 1960s. Cibrian doesn’t know what real 60s star she might mimic, but he says “there’s been talk.”
