Crystal Hefner is firing back after Jon Lovitz mocked her for calling him the Playboy Mansion’s “No. 1 customer.”

“I think Jon Lovitz is part of the problem,” the widow of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and “After the Mansion” podcast host exclusively told Page Six.

“I think many men who came up to that mansion [and] were very sexist and misogynistic are all part of that problem.”

“If I could dismantle that toxic masculinity and patriarchy just a little bit, I will feel happy,” she added. “It’s very sad.”

The 40-year-old former Playmate also took issue with Lovitz suggesting that the late magazine mogul’s financial generosity should make her less critical of him.

“Jon Lovitz had mentioned to me that Hef had bought something for me or paid for something and that I have no reason to speak because of that,” she said. “I think his thinking is very outdated.”

“That’s really sad that, just because someone buys you something, it guarantees silence,” she continued.

Hefner’s comments come after Lovitz, 69, responded to her calling him one of Hollywood’s “biggest pervs” and the Playboy Mansion’s “No. 1 customer.”

“Any time someone says I’m No. 1, it’s a compliment,” the “Saturday Night Live” alum said in a video obtained by Page Six that was filmed Tuesday night in Los Angeles.

He also defended the late Playboy founder, who died in 2017 at 91, saying, “Hugh Hefner was one of the nicest, most generous people I’ve ever met and all of his friends know it.”

“That’s all I have to say about that,” he added.

Crystal isn’t backing down from her criticism of some of the men who frequented the notorious Los Angeles estate.

“There were really horrific, horrible men that came through the mansion,” she told Page Six, alleging she has video evidence of people sexually assaulting her friends.

She also named Bill Cosby and President Donald Trump among the company her late husband surrounded himself with, describing them as “like-minded men.”

Hefner said she wants people to understand how power dynamics can affect women in relationships and why speaking out about past experiences matters.

“Coercive control in a relationship is so real and it can throw you,” she said.

“We also need people to know how powerful this man was when he was alive, that the media wanted this man in their pocket and so they didn’t really put out anything negative about Hef.”

Hefner’s comments follow other recent critiques she has leveled against her late husband, including horrific sex acts involving rape and incest.

“I’m not afraid anymore,” she told Page Six.

“There were people that lived with me that were hurt, and I just think it’s not okay, and it’s a bad example to set for humanity moving forward.”
