Playboy Magazine April 2000 Table of Contents COVER STORY HOT MAMA: Reformed bad girl Bijou Phillips (daughter of the Mamas and the Papas' John Phillips) talks about her obsession with stripping ("I love going to strip clubs-the adrenaline rush you get is amazing"), worship of Madonna ("She's the Queen Elizabeth of the music kingdom") and her next album. You'll be happy looking at her pictures, too. FEATURES 84 BIG BIZNESS From Woodstock to MTV Limp Bizkit caused this year's biggest commotion. In a straight-up conversation, lead Bizkit Fred Durst says he writes songs about what hurts him. Or used to. He's seen too many VH I Behind the Music episodes to become a rock-and-roll casualty. BY ALISON LUNDGREN 114 20Q BARRY WHITE He wasn't always the gangster of love-in fact, at one time he was just a gangster. And a paper boy.

Johnny Depp & Iggy Pop - Hollywood AffairA group of wealthy Los Angeles teenagers try to become part of the "gangsta" lifestyle but soon run into trouble when they come face to face with a real gang of Latino drug dealers.After making her name in
The Princess Diaries, Anne Hathaway takes a radical detour with this edgy independent drama. As Allie, a wealthy gangsta wannabe, she makes no excuses for her delinquent behavior: "We're just teenagers and we're bored." When her Pacific Palisades posse, including pal Emily (
Bully's Bijou Phillips), starts hanging out with a Latino gang (including
Six Feet Under's Freddy RodrÃguez), they learn what thug life is really about. Hathaway couldn't be more game: She swears, she fights--she disrobes (several times). Written and directed by Oscar winners Stephen Gaghan (
Traffic) and Barbara Kopple (
American Dream),
Havoc plays like a B movie, in the vein of the superior
crazy/beautiful, a! nd was released straight to video. For Hathaway fans, it's a chance to see this young talent in a
very different light, but for Gaghan and Kopple followers, this lurid morality tale is sure to come as a letdown.
