“I do have a Playboy story. So Dustin just remember I love you. So Playboy asked me to do you know Playboy and I was like yes it is a great opportunity. It was around 2013. Yeah they gave me an amount of number and Dustin was like ‘Absolutely not I’m going to match it you’re not doing it’” Paulina said. She described her Playboy story and how Dustin wasn’t happy with it. He was against the offer and denied it straight away.
