dirt bag
- In her new memoir, Auditions, Baba Wawa gives the dirt on Star Jones' and Rosie O'Donnell's departures from the View; On Rosie: "The premise of 'The View' is that of a team working together, but for Rosie it was more like Diana Ross and the Supremes, as little by little she took over." [NYDN]
- The problem with Miss Jones was not just her diva behavior (though Walters et. al. were embarrassed about her fiasco of a wedding to Big Gay Al) it was that Star made her View-mates lie about her gastric bypass. Walters writes: "Joy [Behar], in particular, resented having to go along with a lie that implied all one needed to do was situps and ingest one cookie instead of two."[NYDN]
- The septuagenarian Babs is so scandalous! She also talks about her adulterous affair with Massachusetts Senator Edward Brooke, the first black Senator since reconstruction. [NYDN]
- Jimi Hendrix's sex tape? A hoax, cries the company that owns the rights to Jimi's music. Sigh. We'll always have Cynthia Plaster Caster. [Reuters]
- Marilyn Monroe's sex tape? The FBI cries fake! It's amazing how many stars can issue denials from the grave. [MSNBC]

"You've got to romance her a bit, talk to her, and let her give you vibes of what she wants... You gotta know when to back off, when to push it. You have to be sharp." No, that isn't
The Pick Up Artist star Mystery giving pointers on how to get a drunk woman into bed, it's Frank Guzzone, longtime Bloomingdale's employee and one of a breed of old-school shoe salesmen

We say "lurking" because, well, what else are you gonna call a middle-aged guy who fondles female feet for a living, refers to shoes as "sexual", accepts chocolates from satisfied clients and keeps a notebook with the names, numbers, and pedi-preferences of hundreds if not thousands of women?

strange but true
So let's just say there's this guy. And he has a
serious crush on this girl in his class. She's not interested, but he just can't stop thinking about her. 3 years pass and he decides he has the perfect plan: As she's walking home from school, he'll jab her with a syringe and inject
his blood into her body! That way, they're together forever. Sort of. 'Til the cops come. Anyway, that's
what happened in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, yesterday. The 22-year-old man (who is
not Pete Doherty, by the way) is being held by police and the 21-year-old woman is in the hospital for tests.

- Breaking News! Men go for hot women, according to a speed-dating study. Researchers found that the men in the study "tended to select nearly every woman above a certain minimum attractiveness threshold." However the women chose men whose attractiveness was on par with their own, because every chick knows a hotter dude will dump her in a ditch as soon as something sexier comes along. And this is how Brangelina was born. [CNN]
- Law enforcement is posting decoy ads on Craigslist in hopes of catching those who use the site to exchange money for sex. But how else is "Jews or Italians W/ Hot Faces Or Thick Cocks" supposed to find her dream guy? [NY Times]
- Oh fiddle dee dee! The hour-glass figure made famous by Sophia Loren, Scarlett O'Hara, and a few missing ribs is no more. Women's waists have grown seven inches in the last 50 years. Clearly we have feminism to blame for all that excess breathing room. [Daily Mail]
