Hugh Hefner and the girls threw a beautiful party to announce that playmate Jayde Nicole was named Playboys’ Playmate of the Year for 2008. Jayde Nicole of course will take it all off in June’s issue of Playboy where you can check out her tattoo.

Jayde Nicole, who started modeling in her mid-teens, now runs her own modelling agency, is writing a book on good looks and fitness, and has just made a pilot for her own reality show. Along with the Playmate title and a multi-page photo layout in the magazine, she’ll receive $100,000 and a 2008 Cadillac.
