Why do women fall for magicians? Hugh Hefner’s girlfriend dumps him for Criss Angel

As children, who didn't love a magician: the preferred guest act at a birthday party (clowns are creepy). But haven't mature women realized these guys are total weirdos? Once you get past the, "Wow, how did he guess my card" amazement, it seems these men are not much beyond grown-up nerds who spent hours memorizing tricks from magic shops and honing their misdirection skills. Apparently though, many beauties are still impressed by their technique.

"Mindfreak" Criss Angel must have had something up his sleeve in order to steal Holly Madison, Hugh Hefner's main squeeze, away from the Playboy mansion. And this isn't his first hot girlfriend. Angel has previously been linked with Britney Spears, Cameron Diaz, Paris Hilton, Minnie Driver, Lindsay Lohan, Pam Anderson, and model/most downloaded woman on the Internet, Cindy Margolis.

We wish we could say Criss was the only magician whose "abracadabra" made pretty ladies appear, but their magic never fails. David Copperfield famously dated supermodel Claudia Schiffer in her prime from 1994-1999, while David Blaine exclusively lures gorgeous women like Fiona Apple, Madonna, Bijou Phillips, Josie Maran and Daryl Hannah.

Okay, I did happen to check out David Blaine in New York City while he was submerged in an underwater bubble for a week, but would I date him? No way! Will Arnett's Gob of "Arrested Development" is the only magician for me. And not because he's good at magic (turning $100 into 100 pennies?!), but because at least he makes me laugh.

Do you understand why women fall for magicians? [WWTTD

    Is it a proven fact that Holly left Hef? It's just hard for me to believe that she did.

    I'm not really buying that either. I doubt she would leave him, she seems the most committed of the 3. Kendra seems like she would be the first to go.

    LOL!!! Criss Angel Mind Freak? He doesn't seem like he'd offer monogamy ...I am not sure that was the best move. He obviously has something up his sleeve. Pun TOTALLY intended.

    Seriously though, Holly left Hef? Holly? ....Who called Hef her "Puffin" and wanted to have his children....GEEZ.

    So, the "Girls Next Door" lineup has changed. I will definitely have to watch the new season. I had put my money on Kendra to run off with a NFL Player at one of the parties....
