Hugh Hefner blasts Tiger Woods, Jesse James

The 84-year-old adult magazine honcho says the controversial golfer's sex addiction excuse is just a "copout".

Responding to whether he thinks Woods can overcome his playboy transgressions, Hefner said, "He can if he wants to. But this whole idea that it's a sex addiction is a copout. Some people become obsessed with sex, but it's not like an alcohol or drug addiction.

"He did it because he could get away with it."

And although he is constantly surrounded by beautiful women, he says he never cheats.

"When you get married, you make a commitment. I had a lot of girlfriends, but it's not the same as cheating. I don't cheat. I am very open about what I do," he told Page Six.

He also has some choice words reserved for James, saying, "Sandra Bullock's husband looks like a real creep. I think that when you are in a relationship, you should be honest. The real immortality of infidelity is the lying."

Meanwhile, Hefner says he is considering monogamy after finding the "real deal" in girlfriend Crystal Harris.

"She's very real, and although she has her aspirations, the major thing in her life is our relationship.

"This is more like true love. She is, as they say, 'the real deal.'"
