IN THE EARLY hours of this morning, news broke that Playboy’s Hugh Hefner passed away. Since then, celebrities have been remembering the editor-in-chief who leaves a pretty controversial legacy behind.

He will be buried beside Marilyn Monroe after buying the mausoleum vault in 1992 for $75,000 in preparation for his death. The vault above Marilyn Monroe was bought by an anonymous bidder in 2009 for $4.6 million.

Buzzfeed’s Head of U.S. News was unable to forget Holly Madison’s uncomfortable retelling of life in the Playboy Mansion.

Whoops!
