The Self/Less Playboy Party Comic-Con 2015

Where else can you see Miss February 2008 Michelle McLaughlin canoodling with a guy holding a pile of comic books? The Playboy Comic-Con Party of course! It’s the magazine’s only party of the year where wearing your Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sweatshirt is not only allowed but encouraged.

Parq nightclub was packed to the brim last night, July 10, 2015, as Comic-Con wrapped up its second day. Playboy Magazine and Gramercy Pictures threw the most exclusive shindig of the weekend to celebrate the premiere of the science fiction thriller Self/less, out in theaters now. Failed party crashers lined the streets of downtown San Diego as they tried to catch a peek of celebrity attendees including comedian Hannibal Buress, Smallville’s Laura Vandervoort, actress Meagan Good, Heff’s former beau Kendra Wilkinson and Hunger Games stud Alexander Ludwig.

Self/Less stars Ben Kingsley, a billionaire with cancer, who undergoes a radical medical procedure to transfer his soul into a new body played by dashing Ryan Reynolds. What could go wrong? A lot, as the film’s trailer teases. Guests were treated to the sci-fi experience posing with lab coats and gurneys in the Self/Less photo booth for enviable GIFs to post all over Instagram.

As expected, the party took no shortcuts: Cirque du Soleil style aerial silk dancers, Sailor Jerry cocktails and most rewarding, baked brie on a stick. Bunnies were in abundance with resident hotties Alison Waite, Neferteri Plessy, Raquel Pomplun, Carly Lauren and Playboy’s Gamer Next Door Pamela Horton shaking their little bunny foo foos all night long.
