Hugh Hefner reflects on life and legacy with Deborah Solomon in her weekly "Questions for ..." interview in the New York Times Sunday magazine, and he doesn't dodge the Viagra question. "I make love a couple of times a week, and I take the Viagra when I’m going to be making love," he tells her. "I would say at 84 it helps. It’s God’s little helper." (She then confirms that he's not a paid spokesman.) Click here for the full interview, in which he disagrees with her assertion that voluptuousness has gone out of style.
