Playboy Bunny Kendra Wilkinson loves her some Olive Garden. That's fair; that all-you-can-eat salad and breadsticks deal is pretty slammin'. (Why do you think we stationed Jossip HQ just up the street from one?) But Ms. Wilkinson, who appears on the E! series about Hugh Hefner's empire of chests, The Girls Next Door, loves the Olive Garden so much she shouts about it on the show while holding doggie bags with the restaurant's logo on it. And she blogs about it on MySpace. She once said Olive Garden was better than any food in Italy. (NB: We couldn't find a single OG in that country).
But with all that free publicity, the OG is all like "wuh-oh" because it's not great publicity to have your family-themed establishment promoted by someone who makes a living taking her shirt off and pretending to service an 80 year old man.
Unfortunately, that's the biggest celebrity endorsement the Olive Garden is ever going to receive, and they didn't have to pay her, so the reaction at HQ is sort of "meh."
Kendra, however, will not be stopped, and has not removed her reference to the restaurant on her MySpace page ("Who I'd like to meet: THE OWNER OF OLIVE GARDEN").
Commenting about her unrelenting endorsement, she said in a statement, "I speak about it because I love it. I understand they're a family restaurant, but I think it can't hurt them to have a little spice." For now, it's just the salt and the pepper.

This explains SO much about this skank whore. Trash begets trash attracts trash begets trash . . . .
I think it's good she's getting paid for this. The money will come in handy when she has to get her fake boobs re-done.
Message to Olive Garden officials: Take the p.r. and run, and don't say anything stupid. When your fellow Bennigans, Steak and Ales, Starbucks and other copycat bland chain restaurants are failing and filing for bankruptcy and going out of business, just get on your knees and pray and be thankful that you have a celebrity endorsement of any kind. P.r. is p.r. is p.r. Take what you can get. And if you believe that all of the people who go to Olive Garden to eat cheap food don't have sex drives and don't read Playboy and don't watch "Girls Next Door" and don't do other things, then you are living in some Twilight Zone World that exists in Fantasyland. Take the p.r. and be happy with it. And send a big letter of thanks to hero Hugh Hefner and to Kandra, or Kendra, or whatever her name is. Oh, and by the way: Please change your advertising agency. Your radio and television ads are among the worst, and they're terrible.
you guys suck.. kendra is awesome and funny and has the most positive, amazing attitude in life.. and mr jason, fake boobs don't NEED to be redone.. and i'm sure olive garden rocks (i wouldn't know i'm from oz) as for olive garden, when i do visit the US it's the first place i'm going to go simply BECAUSE kendra likes it :)
I think Kendra is adorable and Bridget is very sweet. The one who I'm not crazy about is Holly. I think she's manipulative, not cute, sexy and has no personality. Hef could do better.
