Former teacher Pamela Rogers sent nude photos to her 13-year-old boyfriend in violation of her parole.
A former teacher who has already served jail time for having sex with a 13-year-old student was sent to prison for more than six years Friday for violating her probation by sending the boy nude photos of herself.
When Pamela Rogers, 29, was released after serving 198 days in jail, she was under orders not to contact the student or his family or use the Internet. But authorities say that even after appearing in court on a charge of violating her probation in April, she continued talking with the boy and sending him text messages and sexually explicit photos and video of herself. “You have done everything except show this court that you wanted to rehabilitate yourself,” Warren County Circuit Judge Bart Stanley said. He revoked Rogers’ probation and ordered her to serve the rest of a seven-year prison sentence that had been largely suspended.
Rogers, who has been in jail since April, presented evidence in a hearing Friday, including a clinical psychologist who said she was a sex addict. She apologized tearfully and was led away in handcuffs to a women’s prison in Nashville.
Rogers worked as a physical education teacher at Centertown Elementary School, which the boy, now 14, attended. She was first arrested in February 2005 and pleaded no contest to charges of statutory rape and sexual battery by an authority figure. Records in the case said she had intercourse and oral sex with the student.
Well, if she’s a “sex addict,” you’d think she’d be covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act and this prosecution would constitute harassment. It seems a shame to punish her for a medical condition like that.
The AP provides a photo slideshow but it’s just more of Rogers crying, not any of the nude photos. She appears to be a reasonably attractive woman. I suspect her young victim was perfectly happy to receive nude photos of her over the Internet. But tempting an adolescent with sexually explicit images is just wrong, wrong, wrong.
Certainly, it would be if the genders were reversed. It’s hard to get too worked up about it in this direction, though. A double standard, to be sure.
AP – Two Carolina Panthers cheerleaders were arrested after a bar dispute that broke out early Sunday after patrons complained the women were having sex in a bathroom stall, a police arrest report said. Police reports named the women, but The Tampa Tribune reported officials were checking into whether one of them gave a false identification. One woman was charged with battery, and the other with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. Both women were released on bond later Sunday
The women were locked in a stall at about 2:10 a.m. Sunday when other patrons got angry they were taking so long in the bathroom, the police report said. The women left the stall, and one began arguing with another patron of Banana Joe’s, eventually hitting that patron in the face with a closed fist, police said.
The incident happened 11 hours before the kickoff of the Panthers’ NFL football game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The cheerleaders traveled to Tampa on their own because members of the team’s Top Cats squad are on the sidelines only at home games. Panthers officials told The Charlotte Observer at Sunday’s game that they were aware of the reported incident, but declined further comment.
If they had been smart about this, they could have made thousands with a pay-per-view special.
A Carolina Panthers cheerleader whose name appears on a police report in connection with a fight in a bathroom at a Tampa, Florida, bar says she wasn’t there at the time of the incident. One of the two women arrested by police identified herself as a cheerleader for the team, and even gave the name and address of one of the cheerleaders.
WCNC TV in Charlotte interviewed Kristen Owen, whose name is on the police report. She says she was attending a wedding in Columbia, South Carolina, at the time of the incident. Her father says he wants the situation cleared up.
A second woman, Angela Keithley, was positively identified as a TopCat cheerleader and is charged with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct.
A site called Deadspin has this incisive analysis:
Well, these type of stories don’t come along every day. As we’re sure most of you have heard by now, two Carolina Panthers cheerleaders were arrested in Tampa early Sunday morning after, police say, the two of them were getting them some Sheryl Swoopes in the bathroom. That itself isn’t illegal (thank God!); punching a woman who was complaining about the wait outside the bathroom is.
So far, the cheerleaders are saying it’s a case of mistaken identity, which, if true, freaking sucks. But, if police reports are to be believed, we’re dealing with Renee and Angela. Not surprisingly, it’s darned-near impossible to get on their official Panthers bio pages right now — though we think it’s worth the wait — but Panthers officials emphasize that they made the trip to Tampa on their own; the team does not have cheerleaders for road games.
We could go on and on about this, and rest assured, we will. But for now, we’re just going to reemphasize that two Carolina Panthers cheerleaders were allegedly having sex with each other in the bathroom of a Florida bar. We totally went to the wrong bars this weekend.
Women’s bathrooms at nightclubs are the new boat cruises!
[...]
Apparently, the delay at the bathroom entrance caused other club-goers to get frustrated with the bathroom line wait and sparked the alleged incident.
Haven’t we all been there? It’s like the best beer ad you’ve ever seen, only real.
A little background:
Angela is an RN, according to her official Panthers’ bio, and her favorite quote is fortuitous: “Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away.” Amen, sister.
Renee is a student and says the most important thing in life is to, “Live every moment to the fullest and love like you’ll never be hurt.” Agreed.
[...]
I fully expect the two women to be booted, whether or not the team waits for the law. But their careers have just begun. (Hello, Maxim!)
One suspects, yes.
Joe Ovies, blogging at AM850’s site, gets in a “No sex in the champagne room” line and has another photo of the woman he describes as “My girl Angela is on the B-team that doesn’t cheer for road games.”
A more flattering picture of Renee, left, is from her Carolina Panthers bio page.
The Professional Cheerleaders Blog has lots of other cheerleader pictures but is not yet on this story. One suspects that will change.
Police said they arrested two women after they got into a fight with a woman in a Florida night club. Patrons of the bar allege that the women were having sex in one of the stalls. One of the women identified herself to police as a cheerleader for the Carolina Panthers but police have since questioned that identification.
According to police records, they arrested Kristen Lanier Owen, 22, and Angela Ellen Keathley, 26, the names of two Carolina Panthers TopCats. The arrest happened outside Banana Joe’s, a bar in downtown Tampa around 2:20 a.m. according to bar staff.
However, police have since questioned the identity of the woman identified as Owen saying another woman may have tried to mislead them by using Owen’s North Carolina drivers license or a false licence with Owen’s information on it. Officers said they have opened an investigation into the woman’s actual identity. 6NEWS spoke with Kristen Owen and she said she was at a wedding in Columbia, South Carolina at the time when she was supposed to be in the Tampa bar.
Owen would not comment on who the other woman was. Her mother told 6NEWS that the woman was another TopCats cheerleader.
We’ll get to the bottom of this before long, I’m guessing.
The Panthers whipped the Buccaneers yesterday, but surfing the web, youâd hardly know it. All a fan can find on the internet is talk about the two Panthers cheerleaders who were allegedly having sex in a Tampa clubâs bathroom stall the night before.
But what is worse, is that you canât get online to Panthers.com to get anything related to the game. Itâs crashed, and been replaced by a Panthers.com graphic for the time being. No quotes, no notes, no stats and no video highlights.
No surprise there. Judging from my own traffic, people are a lot more interested in lesbian cheerleaders than rioting in France or U.S. domestic politics.
Update: A clarification on the cheerleaders involved from an updated AP story:
Two Carolina Panthers cheerleaders were charged after their arrest at a bar where witnesses told police the women had sex in a restroom. Renee Thomas, 20, of Pittsboro, N.C., and Angela Keathley, 26, of Belmont, N.C., were taken to Hillsborough County Jail early Sunday. Witnesses said the women were having sex in a stall with each other, angering patrons waiting in line to get into the restroom at the club in the Channelside district.
Thomas was charged with battery Sunday after allegedly striking a bar patron when she was leaving the restroom, then landed in even more trouble after police said she gave officers a driver’s license belonging to another Panthers cheerleader who was not in Tampa. Thomas, who made the trip to Florida for Sunday’s game between the Panthers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, was released from jail on $500 bail before police learned she was not the person she claimed to be.
Providing police with a false name is a misdemeanor. However, Thomas was charged Monday with giving a false name and causing harm to another – a third-degree felony punishable by probation or a jail term of 1 to 5 years, said police spokeswoman Laura McElroy. Meanwhile, detectives are trying to determine how Thomas gained possession of the driver’s license of the third cheerleader.
Keathley, charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, was released on $750 bail about an hour before the Panthers played the Bucs at Raymond James Stadium. The cheerleaders were not in town to perform at the game.
Update:
The cheerleaders have been approached by Penthouse with an offer to pose nude for the adult magazine, MSNBC-TV reported Tuesday.
Janet Jackson, whose nipple exposing “warddrobe malfunction” stole the show at the Super Bowl two seasons ago, now appears sunbathing nude on the Internet.
Janet Jackson has been exposed _ and this time, Justin Timberlake is nowhere to be seen. A video clip showing Jackson sunbathing naked has been circulating on the Internet and was still playing on some Web sites Thursday. The 40-second paparazzi video was shot from bushes near the singer.
Jackson’s publicist didn’t return a call Thursday from The Associated Press for comment. Her lawyers were reportedly attempting to have the video taken off the Web. On one site, a freeze-frame was still up Thursday, but the video link had been taken down _ replaced with the message “removed because lawsuits aren’t really my thing.” The exact source of the video and when it was shot was unclear. Photos taken at the same time popped up online last year.
Jackson found herself in the middle of controversy when Timberlake revealed her right breast _ the now infamous “wardrobe malfunction” _ at the end of their set during the halftime show of the 2004 Super Bowl. Last week, her former brother-in-law, Young DeBarge, accused her of having a “secret” child– a daughter, Renee, now 18– with ex-husband James DeBarge. The 39-year-old singer issued a statement Wednesday saying: “I do not have a child and all allegations saying so are false.”
When I saw the headline, I was hoping it was Janet Jackson and not Michael or Jesse. Because that would be wrong.
Apparently, posing nude for magazines is the latest craze for Hollywood starlets needing a self-esteem boost. Both Lindsay Lohan and Renee Zellweger are joining the craze.
Troubled teen star Lindsay Lohan is set to strip for a Vanity Fair cover. Lohan who has been the talk of American media because of her drastic weight loss and speculated eating disorder is apparently eager to show off her new healthy figure.
According to IMDb.com, America’s ‘In Touch’ magazine reports that Lohan shot the ‘top secret’ cover on a beach in Malibu, California sometime last week and it was apparently her idea to pose naked. “It was Paris Hilton’s recent Vanity Fair cover, where she’s topless and covering her breasts with her arms, that inspired Lindsay to push the envelope even further,” a source said.
In some of the photo’s Lindsay copies her idol Marilyn Monroe’s famous pose.
Zellweger said much the same thing in a June story linked from the sidebar of the above:
Renee Zellweger is adamantly trying to shake off her image of being a ditzy blonde by admitting that she wants to pose for a raunchy photo shoot. According to the Daily Star, the ‘Bridget Jones’ star says she eager to find something more challenging than working on a film. Zellweger, who recently married country muso Kenney Chesney, is keen on shocking the showbiz world again by getting posing in the nude.
Zellweger said, “It would make a nice change from acting. It is something different,” reports the Daily Star. “In a way modelling is a lot like acting. A lot of the time you hide behind someone else’s guise,” she said.
Now that Zellweger’s marriage to Chesney has been annuled, the need for such therapy is all the more apparent.
Jessica Simpson’s new “These Boots Are Made for Walking” video, shot to promote her role as Daisy Duke in the new “Dukes of Hazzard” movie, has surpassed the Paris Hilton “Carl’s Jr.” sexy carwash video in drawing the ire of whackos.
Move over Paris Hilton. Jessica Simpson is taking the carnal car-washing crown. Still reeling from the hotel heiress’ burger commercial in which she wears a skimpy bathing suit whilst sudsing up her Bentley, a radical Christian group calling itself the Resistance is protesting a similar scene in Simpson’s music video for “These Boots Are Made for Walking.”
Simpson, 24, covers the Nancy Sinatra song along with Willie Nelson for the upcoming Warner Bros. film adaptation of “The Dukes of Hazzard,” hitting theaters in August. In the video, Simpson is dressed in her Daisy Duke attire inspired by her “Hazzard” character, complete with denim short shorts and midriff-baring top. She struts around in a bar in red boots, gyrating, undulating and all-around sexing up the crowd of cowboys, including collaborator Nelson. It’s the latter part of the video, however, that’s drawing the most attention. She performs similar moves, but this time wearing only a skimpy pink string bikini while stroking the General Lee — and that’s no euphemism. She also sings about her double-Ds — referring to the Daisy Duke initials of course.
Website TheResistanceManifesto.com, trumpets, “SAD NEWS — Christian role model Jessica Simpson becomes Illuminati pawn.” The site is calling for an apology and a re-shoot of the lewd video. “It’s disappointing to have Jessica, a pastor’s daughter and Christian role model, join the ranks of the ’singing strippers’ such as Brittany [sic] Spears and Christina Aguilera,” says spokesperson John Conner. “She has one of the most beautiful voices, and is a very beautiful girl, but it’s sad to see her whore her self [sic] out like this … She took a classic like the ‘Dukes of Hazzard,’ and Daisey [sic] Duke, and turned her into a slutty, stripper with a fetish for old men.”
One must take these vitriolic objections with a grain of salt, however, since the site has an ulterior motive: spreading allegations that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were masterminded by the Illuminati.
While their political views don’t necessarily obviate their opinion about sleaze–ad hominem is ad hominem even when criticizing nuts–taking their views with a grain of salt may well be best. Further, while the original “Dukes of Hazzard” was certainly family friendly, it’s rather hard to argue that Catherine Bach’s “Daisy Duke” wasn’t played for sex appeal.
After careful analysis of both videos, I would say Simpson is sexier but Hilton is sluttier. You don’t have to take my word for it: The Paris Hilton video and the Jessica Simpson video are both available online.
Halle Berry once promised to fulfill longtime Playboy picture editor Marilyn Grabowski’s dream and bare all for the men’s magazine, reports IMDB news.
The actress was an aspiring superstar 10 years ago when she agreed to meet with Grabowski after she was made an attractive offer to pose for Hugh Hefner’s publication. Grabowski, who discovered Pamela Anderson and Anna Nicole Smith among others, recalls, “Halle Berry, I had dinner with 10 years ago and she said, ‘When I’ve got the right film, I’ll do it.’ She wanted to (do it) but I haven’t heard from her in the last couple of years.”
Grabowski reveals the magazine also approached Britney Spears, but she wanted a “ridiculous” amount of money to disrobe: “It was too much, let’s put it that way.”
That figure could well have been $10m, following revelations from Teri Hatcher that she would want the same figure for stripping off too.
Somehow, this made it onto GoogleNews’ radar screen, even though it appears to be something of a non-story. One wonders what Berry’s hesitancy to pose nude for money would be, though, given that her entire career has revolved around exploiting her good looks. Her portrayal of a stripper in “The Last Boy Scout” left little to the imagination, she appeared nude in “Monster’s Ball,” the movie for which she won an Oscar, and her post-Oscar “Catwoman” costume was certainly more revealing than it comic book inspiration.
IT’S NOT EASY interviewing a woman while looking at her nude. But we’d just received the March issue of Playboy when Deborah Gibson called. We had no choice but to compliment the ’80s teen pop singer on her layout.
[...]
“There’s a way to do it artistically and a way to do it raunchy,” Gibson said of Playboy, which she claims started approaching her to pose when she was 17. “I put out anti-sexual images for so long, and I was so prudish for so long, it’s about time,” says the 34-year-old.
She’ll sign copies of the magazine from 1 to 3 p.m. Friday at Tower Records (100 S. Broad).
[...]
Asked if she minds if guys shake their love to her Playboy spread, she says “I had many of men shaking their love to those virginal pictures back in the day. Being a prudish, cutesy teen star really brings out the wacky men.” “Playboy is a men’s entertainment magazine, do whatever you want, I don’t want to hear about it, but I’m glad to be of service.”
Paige Davis has been fired as the host of TLC’s Trading Spaces. A TLC rep tells the New York Post’s Page Six that “TLC is taking ‘Trading Spaces’ in a new creative direction, transitioning to a ‘host-less’ format this spring … Paige helped make ‘Trading Spaces’ a great success for the network, and we wish her the best of luck.” While the Post idiotically suggests that “her recent weight gain or her terrible ’50s hairdo” might be to blame, a rumor reality blurred discovered was posted online suggests that the previously discredited sex tape rumor was the real culprit. If it’s correct, there actually are three sex tapes — even though the original source of the tape information recanted “just before the TV home improvement show host’s attorneys took him to court,” The Chicago Sun-Times reported. Previously, Paige survived the TV Guide cover scandal and the fundraiser stripping scandal, but this was apparently too much, according to the information, which apparently comes from a Banyan Productions insider’s friend.
The things one learns via one’s referrer logs. Lots of links at the original.
TLC is taking Trading Spaces in a new creative direction, transitioning to a “host-less” format this spring. As a result, Paige Davis will be leaving the cast of Trading Spaces. We believe that this new creative direction will enable the show to be more spontaneous, focus more on the homeowners and designers, and create alternative home trades in different cities and on opposite coasts.
Paige helped make Trading Spaces a great success for the network and we wish her the best of luck in her future endeavors. Paige’s last new episode will premiere in March, with repeat episodes of Trading Spaces airing throughout the year.
Perky Paige Davis is packing her toolbelt and leaving TLC’s popular renovation show, “Trading Spaces.” The network announced the change in a statement yesterday, attributing their new Paige-less look to a dynamic change in format which allows the show to “focus more on the homeowners.”
Davis, who began hosting the popular renovation show in 2001, posted a touching au revoir on the show’s Web site. “I just wanted to take a minute to say goodbye,” the 35-year-old TV personality wrote. “I cannot begin to explain what an incredible journey this show has been for me. I love `Trading Spaces’ so much, and I am very proud of what the cast and crew has brought to you.”
Despite the hunky-dory arrangement, rumors have been swirling that Davis’ departure was prompted by recent bursts of risque behavior. Last June, the New York Post reported that the married host engaged in an impromptu strip tease at a Broadway fund-raiser and there were also dogged hints of a sex tape circulating on the Internet starring the cheerful can-do chick. And somehow we don’t think The Learning Channel would learn from Paris Hilton’s pioneering example and treat a sex video as a resume booster. . . .
Stumbled on via my referral logs: scans of Teri Hatcher in the February 2005 issue of FHM. She’s not only the cover girl but has a long interview and photo layout.
She claims her famously “real and spectacular” breasts of nine years ago are now merely “real” and that she has gone without sex for “so long I can’t remember.” The photo layout seems to belie the first assertion. As to the second, she has apparently decided that “electronics” are better than any man in the sex department.
During Kylie Minogue’s recent appearance on a kids’ TV show, the children sitting in the front row were treated to oh so much more than her infectious brand of hooky, homosexual-friendly pop when an errant gust of wind blew up the handkerchiefs masquerading as her skirt. Oscar, Grover, and Big Bird taught children their ABC’s, Mr. Rogers taught kids morals and values, and Kylie gives children a cold, hard reality lesson in anatomy.
A triple threat as a singer, dancer and actress, Paige Davis is the highlight of TLC’s hugely popular Trading Spaces, and she’s a woman whose beauty and energy cannot be overlooked.
why is she famous?
With a Broadway background, Davis is the host of Trading Spaces, the reality show that gives participants 48 hours to redecorate a room in their neighbors’ homes. Now in its third season, Trading Spaces is a smash hit, with Davis leading the way.
overall rating: 77
The Learning Channel, home of true reality television, often gets little credit for its quality programming. The addition of Paige Davis to one of its top shows finally gave TLC much of the attention it deserved — a testament to Davis’ magnetic personality and showbiz charm. With Davis as host, Trading Spaces’ target demographic soon extended from creative women to eager men, as male channel surfers would put the remote down once they laid eyes on this bubbly beauty.
What separates Davis from her peers is that she is much more than just eye candy. In fact, looking at the other female hosts on other networks, many would say that Davis is overqualified for her job. Her acting prowess in stage productions of Beauty and the Beast and Chicago turned heads and has helped her forge a bright future on stage if she ever decides to return.
personality & talent: 75
Aside from her looks, Paige Davis is best recognized by her energy. A woman who is always on the go, she is often caught doing three things at once when not filming. On Trading Spaces, she is one part objective host, one part counselor and one part interested fan. On or off the camera, Davis wears all hats extremely well. As a happy-go-lucky woman, her goals to have fun and live in the moment translate into a highly likable character.
Davis’ experience on the live stage as an actor, dancer and singer make her one unique host. While her training has made her an acclaimed Broadway actress, her natural gifts as a down-to-earth TV personality remain her most important asset. She can connect with an audience and leave them wanting more — an amazing feat in a show that doesn’t follow a conventional format.
sexiness: 79
With a body that seems to have been carved by the talented carpenters on the show, Paige is a knockout. She is an unassuming hottie, which drives us even wilder. Davis is one girl who does not need any remodeling.
accomplishments & fame: 72
Ever since childhood, Paige Davis’ dream was to become an entertainer. After attending the Meadows School of Arts at Southern Methodist University, she moved to the land of opportunity: Los Angeles. There she was able to land jobs in commercials and videos, while her versatility led her to tour with the Beach Boys.
Her real strengths lay in theater, where she loved to dance and sing. Her big break arrived when she was cast as Babette on the national tour of the Broadway hit, Beauty and the Beast. For two and a half years, Davis fine-tuned her skills and paved the way for a stellar career upon her return home. Roles in stage productions of Chicago (on Broadway), A Chorus Line, Pippin, and Hello, Dolly! ensued.
Through a letter-writing campaign, Davis, with no TV experience, was able to land her best job yet: Host of the underground TLC reality hit, Trading Spaces. Producers of the show were struck with her charisma and hired her in a snap. Though the show was only in its second season when she started (the previous host was Alex McLeod), Davis had an immediate impact and was the driving force behind the show’s quick increase in viewership.
Now in its third season, Trading Spaces is hotter than ever, thanks in part to its spunky host. Already nominated for an Outstanding Non-Fiction Program (Special Class) Emmy in 2002, the show — and Davis, especially — has nowhere to go but up.
natural beauty: 81
With cropped hair and a warm smile, Paige Davis’ charm is infectious. Her years as a dancer have given her an athletic figure worthy of some manly ogling as well. She does not need to be posing against a palm tree in a bikini to look sexy; in fact, just watching her in action helping out the Trading Spaces team is enough to distract any viewer.
personal style: 77
The casual wear that Davis sports on the reality series is anything but ordinary. Whether she’s wearing a simple cotton T-shirt or a more revealing low-cut blouse, and jeans or tight pants, Paige always looks great.
We wish we could have caught her Chicago performance to see how she looks in tights and short sequined dresses, but even with the little liberty Trading Spaces offers in terms of fashion, we have absolutely nothing to complain about.
quote: “I’m kind of a nerd in that I get really excited about things… I love anticipating if they’re going to like their rooms or not.” -Paige Davis, on the excitement of Trading Spaces
biography:
Born in 1970, Mindy Paige Davis and her family moved from Philadelphia to Louisville before her teens. A young gymnast, Davis enjoyed a normal childhood and was inspired to entertain after discovering her mother’s West Side Story album. By the time the record was worn out, she had memorized all the words and could dance to all the songs.
the stage for takeoff
After high school, Davis attended the Meadows School of Arts at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Following graduation, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue her dream of becoming a performer. She soon landed roles in commercials and music videos, and a dancing gig on tour with the Beach Boys.
Her first major break came in 1997 when she signed on as Babette in the national tour of Beauty and the Beast. For two and a half years she traveled with the cast, which included future husband Patrick Page, who starred as Lumière. Theater work followed on Broadway with a role in Chicago, and on regional productions of A Chorus Line, Pippin, Hello, Dolly!, and more.
a bit of tlc:
A call from a close friend quickly changed Davis’ life. The hugely popular TLC show Trading Spaces was holding auditions for a new host, and her friend thought Davis was a perfect fit. Despite the lack of TV experience, the producers took a liking to the beautiful stage actress and hired her immediately.
Starting out in Trading Spaces’ second season, Davis added life and spunk to the show, in which neighbors have 48 hours to redecorate a room in each other’s homes with the help of professional designers and carpenters, and a budget of $1,000. Originally aimed at women aged 25 to 54, men and children have now taken to the show — for different reasons, of course.
the hostess with the mostess
More than one season later, Trading Spaces is among the top-rated TLC shows and was nominated for an Emmy in the Outstanding Non-Fiction Program (Special Class) category in 2002. Davis has been an invaluable addition not only to Trading Spaces but also to another hit show, A Wedding Story, which aired her nuptials to her actor husband Patrick Page; the episode achieved the highest ratings ever for that program. Note that if Paige were to use her married name, she’d be Paige Page.
Her charismatic personality and beauty make it hard not to love her, and with her television career just beginning, Paige Davis and her fans have a lot to look forward to.
Not to be outdone by Kirsten Dunst’s renegade rack flash, beachbound tennis brat Anna Kournikova pulled aside her bikini bottoms to inspect her sandy ‘tang, offering up a crotch flash to God and everybody.
The fine folks over at Drunken Stepfather blog bring you a veritable cornucopia of Kournikova crevasse pics but the question remains: what was she looking for down there? Sand crabs? Lost car keys? Enrique Iglesias’s missing mole?
There has been a steady influx the last several days of people looking for information on Trading Spaces hostess Paige Davis–especially information involving her nude, on tape, on video, and similar combinations. A look through the archives at GoogleNews may explain this.
Is Paige Davis, the host of The Learning Channel’s “Trading Spaces,” the victim of some hot Internet gossip? If anonymous rumors on the Internet are to be believed, the 35-year-old fix-it vixen – who presides over houseswappings in which neighbors redecorate each other’s homes on cable television – may have once starred in a steamy homemade video. Yesterday, a rep for Davis told Lowdown, “Paige is on the set. We’re looking into it, and her lawyers have been notified.”A representative for TLC (whose motto, appropriately, is “Life Unscripted”) didn’t return detailed messages.
But an anonymous reviewer on the Celebrity Nudity Database (www.cndb.com) describes a variety of activities allegedly involving Davis and “a boyfriend” – including some in-shower grooming while belting out “I Feel Pretty.” A second reviewer claims that the video is dated July 3, 1997, and estimates that Davis – or maybe her doppelbanger – was 27 at the time. “She sure looks a lot and sounds a lot like the real deal,” the reviewer says.
A third writer provides a detailed description of one intimate moment. The account concludes: “I’m sure it’s her.”
Davis lives in Manhattan with her husband, actor Patrick Page. At an AIDS research fund-raiser in July, she raised eyebrows – not to mention heart rates – when she reportedly launched into a striptease and flashed her thong at the audience.
The San Francisco Examiner also had the story in its December 23 edition:
An old home video allegedly showing “Trading Spaces” host Paige Davis getting it on with a male friend is reportedly making the rounds. A “review” posted on Celebrity Nudity Database by someone who claims to have seen the tape says the video contains footage of Davis and the mystery man taking a naughty shower together while Davis belts out “I Feel Pretty.”
Last Thursday, Lloyd Grove announced that he’s giving up Paris Hilton. But if his Internet-found items hold up as well as his report on an alleged Paige Davis sex tape, he’ll have to return to Paris on about January 6. Lloyd pointed to reviews on the Celebrity Nudity Database that suggested the Trading Spaces host starred in her own sex tape. But the day after Lloyd’s item ran, someone contradicted the reports, writing, “We have been able to confirm through various sources that the woman in the sex tape we have is NOT, repeat NOT Paige Davis of TLC’s Trading Spaces. She looks and sounds almost exactly like Ms. Davis, but is certainly not her. I want to apologize for any misleading information that came out of this. We were trying our best to keep this quiet, but some within the company just had to get this info on the internet. Again, sorry.”
There are several CNdb reviews of the tape; one says, “The Trading Spaces hostess is on tape having rough sex with a boyfriend several years ago. She sucks, gets spanked, and is eaten out in this tape, according to the distributors.” Although the sex tape may not be real, the pictures of her quasi-stripping at a charity event over the summer certainly are.
“Overhaulin’” and “Trading Spaces” Marathons, The Learning Channel: Friday, catch nine hours of the makeover show for motor vehicles. Saturday, Paige Davis hosts 15 hours of the hit renovation reality series, including the two-hour “100 Grand” episode, a behind-the-scenes special, a “best of 2004″ installment, and an hour of bloopers and outtakes.
For those looking for information on this rather than the sex tape, I apologize for the delay in investigating this matter.
