Hef Tags Harris As His "Runaway Bride"

Sneak Peek model Crystal Harris appearing on the cover of the July 2011 issue of Playboy Magazine, with the headline "America's Princess: Introducing Mrs. Crystal Hefner."

According to reports, 85-year old Playboy founder Hugh M. Hefner, was 'dumped' by his cover-model fiancee days before their wedding, after the issue had gone to print.

In a marketing ploy that is certain to boost circulation for the iconic magazine, Hefner has instructed his staff to apply red and yellow 'Runaway Bride' stickers over Harris' cover photo.

Chicago-based Playboy said they are trying to affix as many stickers on the cover of the magazine as possible, before they hit newsstands later this week.
