Summary
This week, we've got a new perspective . . . from a teenager who lived at the Playboy mansion. Bridget's sister Anastasia lived at the mansion during the summers from age 16 to age 21 and appeared on The Girls Next Door over five seasons.
The girls get into how she felt about being part of the tv show, what she knew (or didn't know) about what went on behind closed doors, sneaking down to the parties, sneaking off the property, body image struggles, eating disorders and mental health. Anastasia talks about how the makeover made her feel, what it was like getting a bikini wax on national television, growing up with Bridget and being "home alone" at the mansion.
A message from Anastasia:
"Like Bob Barker said, spay and neuter your pets. Also, please support animal shelters . . . and cats especially."

| 0:06.6 | All right, welcome back to Girls Next Level guys. We're so excited. We have Bridget's sister Anastasia with us today. |
| 0:13.2 | Yeah, I hadn't talked to Anastasia since the mansion days, but obviously you guys are in touch regularly. |
| 0:19.6 | I know you got to Boston to see her. Yeah. All the time you're very close. |
| 0:24.1 | And before we get into that, I wanted to talk a little bit about like |
| 0:28.6 | kids at the mansion because your sister was like, I think 16 when she started coming to the mansion. Yeah. |
| 0:34.5 | So I wanted to talk about like kids at the mansion when it was appropriate, when it wasn't kind of |
| 0:39.2 | what the rules are just because I think people have been curious about that. Yeah. When I moved in |
| 0:44.3 | in 2001, I have had two kids who were probably like 10 or 11 around that age. |
| 0:50.8 | And they lived with their mom in the house next door and there was like a gate that connected |
| 0:55.2 | the houses and kind of his philosophy was like, oh, the gate's open anytime. Kind of so to speak. |
| 1:00.7 | But really, they would come over on Tuesday nights for what he called family night and they |
| 1:04.9 | would like, I'll watch a movie together. Right. And that was kind of the extent of it like when I |
| 1:09.2 | moved in. And other than that, I only really saw kids at the mansion for like family appropriate |
| 1:14.1 | events like Easter. Sometimes you would see somebody like Tina, the main girlfriend had a daughter |
| 1:21.0 | who lived at an apartment off campus, who would come up maybe, I'd see her maybe like at a |
| 1:26.8 | fun in the sun or like a buffet or Thanksgiving, something like that. But really, kids were like |
| 1:33.6 | kind of kept separate. Like they weren't really up in the mix, which seemed appropriate. |
| 1:38.4 | And then after I moved in, there was a whole cast of characters like all the girlfriends who |
| 1:43.3 | are there switched out to a whole new set. And a couple of the girlfriends had kids who were kind |
