Scandal! Heidi Montag has a sex tape with Karissa Shannon, one of Hugh Hefner’s twin girlfriends

AUG - 22 | AUTHOR: ADMIN | RELATED : GOSSIP, HEIDI MONTAG

One of the tapes Spencer Pratt is tying to sell of his ex-sideshow partner wife is a sexy romp between Heidi Montag and one of Hugh Hefner’s twin girlfriends, Karissa Shannon.

Heidi’s camp has not responded to the situation yet, but Karissa told TMZ that this tape does exist, but she’ll sue the pants off of Doucher if he attends to sell it to Vivid Entertainment.

Spencer claims to have been cleaning out his garage when he found these tapes and had an epiphany! That’s kind of hard to believe considering every move he makes is calculated, he was planning this all along. Heidi may be in on it to, but at this point she playing the distraught card. If she’s really not in on in, that’s a major multiplier for Spencer’s skeevishness.

But Spence claims that he’s doing it all for Heidi:

“I will knock Club Jenna out of the water. When I realized how much Kim [Kardashian] was making, my logic is this is the best thing I can do for my ex-wife. Kim is on the cover of Allure right now. Heidi isn’t on the cover of Allure.”

Oh, and he wants $5 million for them, a price Vivid Entertainment thinks is “not unreasonable.” Hope he splits it with Heidi.

'True Blood' stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer are no longer engaged -- because they tied the knot Saturday night, in a wedding held at a private residence overlooking the ocean in Malibu, Calif., according to UsMagazine.com. Guests at the ceremony uniting Paquin, 28, and Moyer, 40, included 'True Blood' costar Carrie Preston (attending with husband Michael Emerson of 'Lost') as well as Elijah Wood, Paquin's costar in the upcoming film 'The Romantics.' Many friends and loved ones who attended the nuptials reportedly arrived bearing gifts entirely wrapped in purple.

The couple -- whose first kiss was onscreen, playing psychic Sookie Stackhouse and vampire Bill Compton on the HBO hit -- officially went public with their romance in February 2009. "I love working with her," Moyer told E! last summer, "and that's how it all started, by falling in love on camera."

The pair became engaged in August 2009 after Moyer, a native of London, popped the question on a beach in Hawaii. This is the first marriage for Paquin; Moyer has two children from previous relationships.

Paquin, an Oscar winner by age 11 for her supporting performance in 1993's 'The Piano,' and her new groom shocked Rolling Stone readers recently with a controversial cover photo, in which the naked (but dripping with blood) couple are joined by 'True Blood' costar Alexander Skarsgard. In the accompanying interview, Paquin says, "I feel so lucky right now...life is pretty great."

harold dow death

The veteran CBS News correspondent died Saturday. He was 62. Dow is survived by his wife, Kathy, and their three children, Danica, Joelle, and David. His career spanned nearly 40 years CBS. A five-time winner of Emmy and a correspondent for 48 hours from the start of the program, Dow covers everything from the kidnapping of Patty Hearst to U.S. involvement in Bosnia. journalist Dow was the network newsfor OJ Simpson’s first interview after the murders ofNicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. According to the press release announcing his death, CBS, Dow narrowly escaped one of the falling twin towers during its coverage of the terrorist attacks of 11 September.

When 48 Hours premiered as a televisionnews series on CBS in 1988, took its name from the 1986 documentary 48 Hours on Crack Street. Dow work appeared in the documentary and was part of the series since its debut.

In a recent interview with his hometown newspaper, Hackensack, New Jersey, The Record, Dow spoke of his work:

“I’ve traveled all over the world. I’ve seen people a few things in life have the opportunity to see front and personal,” Dow said in his distinctive voice and deep. “I covered the tsunami in Sri Lanka. I was in South Africa when Nelson Mandela was released. I traveled with him across the United States when he gave his tour. There are only moments, places I’ve been that I think really changed my life. ”

Before joining CBS, Dow broke the color barrier in 1968 as the first African-American journalist in Omaha, Nebraska. It was a feat that earned Dow and the news director who hired him death threats.

Dow said the record of that being a black journalist wearing a special weight for him, a man who grew up picking cotton and snuff during the summers at her grandmother’s farm:

“To know what is in the sun, working from sunrise to sunset, forbidden to be able to read and write for hundreds of years. … And that’s what you do as a journalist, which means you can not do” said Dow. “Everything is connected to me.”

Van Sant tells Dow’s ability to score an exclusive:

During his career at CBS News, Harold has some huge exclusive. And it was not just be stories for him, it was stories that he has “in the style of the old school.”

When everyone wanted to interview O.J. Simpson, who was Harold who got his butt in the chair. When boxer Mike Tyson story was red hot, is Harold who received their first major interview. And back in the old days, when Patty Hearst, the daughter of a newspaper magnate and television, was kidnapped by a terrorist organization – and eventually joined the group – was Harold who received the highest interview in an exclusive Patty who helped build his career at CBS News.

In “48 Hours” Harold could do anything. I was amazed at his range. Harold could talk to one of thepresidents of p**ps, murderers and charged rock stars. She loved her work, loved every minute of chasing the bad guys. He was 62 going on 25. In the last year, his profile of civil rights hero Medgar Evers won a major award. I’m serious when I say that was one of the best stories I’ve seen in the last five years.

Trey DePriest to announce Decision Friday

Who is Trey Depriest?: Trey DePriest, the linebacker out of Springfield South High School, will look to add to the Buckeyes already special 2011 Recruiting class. DePriest, 6'1'' 225, is a monster at outside linebacker and is a very good blitzer. He is one of the best at wrapping up and tackling overall. He can beat offensive linemen with quickness and good change of direction moves while putting tremendous pressure on the QB with a great finishing burst and then get the tackle for loss or a sack. The only thing he would need to work on would be his pass coverage. Since that's the only thing not great about this kid, expect him to focus on it during the season.

This coming Friday, Trey will announce his decision in his hometown of Springfield, Ohio. His decison is down to the final two, Ohio State and Alabama. This is will be a big key to beat a top SEC team at a recruiting kid, but it's also vital because he's from Ohio. We wish him the best of luck.

New York Yankees on verge of acquiring slugger Lance Berkman in trade with Houston Astros: sources

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - The Yankees are on the verge of landing slugger Lance Berkman from the Astros, according to two major-league sources, adding a powerful bat for the stretch run.

Berkman, a 34-year-old switch-hitting first baseman/outfielder, will provide another option for Joe Girardi in the DH mix, which has been a revolving door since Nick Johnson went down with a wrist injury in May.

The Yankees and Astros were still working out the final details of the deal, though the Bombers are not expected to give up any of their blue-chip prospects. New York will likely pick up a majority of the $7 million owed to Berkman, which includes a $2 million buyout of his 2011 team option.

Berkman, a five-time All-Star, had to agree to the deal thanks to his standing as a 10-and-5 player, having spent his entire 12-year career with the Astros.

Berkman is hitting .245 with 13 home runs and 49 RBI in 85 games this season, though he has a respectable .372 on-base percentage. Berkman won't solve the Yankees' problems against lefties, as he's hitting a dreadful .188 with one homer and four RBI in 64 at-bats against southpaws.

His home-road splits are also quite notable, as he's hitting .287 with nine home runs and 31 RBI in 45 home games, numbers that drop to .194, 4 and 18 in 40 games away from Minute Maid Park.

Berkman has only played first base during the past three seasons, so it's unlikely that the Yankees will use him in the outfield despite his 801 career games out there.

'Jersey Shore's' Snooki arrested

SEASIDE HEIGHTS, N.J. — Reality television star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi was taken into custody Friday afternoon for disorderly conduct, police confirmed.

According to Police Chief Thomas J. Boyd, Polizzi, a member of the cast of MTV's Jersey Shore, was taken to the police station about 3:30 p.m., where she faces being charged with disorderly conduct. Boyd would not provide further information at this time.

Jersey Shore is currently taping its third season here. The cast of the show spent the spring in Florida to shoot season two. The premiere of that season last night on MTV drew 5.3 million viewers, according to ratings firm Nielsen.

JERSEY? SURE: Reality TV docks at Jersey shore

Borough Administrator John A. Camera said that beachgoers were complaining this afternoon about a disorderly person, which turned out to be Polizzi, who they said was falling on other people and bothering them.

When police confronted her about the behavior, Polizzi was indignant enough to warrant being locked up in the Seaside Heights jail, Camera said. He emphasized that she was not arrested.

"It really is true, and has been proven — whether it's a show or not," he said. "When people misbehave in public, it's the same: The police expeditiously end their bad behavior so all the good people can enjoy their time."

A representative of MTV declined to comment.

On Thursday, Camera released a statement on behalf of borough officials, stating the show has brought in millions of dollars and an influx of business.

However, he said the Borough Council "wants it to be known that they do not condone discriminatory remarks against Italian Americans or anyone else, domestic violence and/or the promiscuous and otherwise bad behavior sometimes portrayed on the show."

"The cast of this show are not indicative of the majority of those who visit and enjoy the Jersey shore and Seaside Heights every summer," he continued in the release.

Camera said Friday the cast and crew of Jersey Shore have cooperated with the borough and hired off-duty police officers for extra security to handle the crowds.

"Last year they were able to film without much security or notoriety," he said. "Our police department is there to handle the situation and make sure nobody feels threatened or uncomfortable in Seaside Heights.

Earlier Friday, Snooki was partying on the beach with a beer bong, only she was filling it up with Coca-Cola, the celebrity gossip website TMZ.com said.

"We're told she was also seen at a local bar taking 'body shots,' " the site said.

Simon Cowell, Ryan Seacrest React To Ellen's 'American Idol' Exit

Fans and bloggers aren't the only ones sharing their reactions to the news that Ellen DeGeneres is leaving "American Idol" after just one season. Fellow departed judge Simon Cowell and current host Ryan Seacrest have also revealed their feelings about the news.

Cowell, who left the show after last season, seemed to imply that he thinks DeGeneres is making the right move. "As I got to know Ellen, I grew to really, really like her," Cowell said in a statement to theHollywood Reporter. "I have huge respect for her because she's always been in control of her own destiny."

Ryan Seacrest also dished his two cents on the comedian's unexpected exit. The host took to Twitter on Thursday night with nothing but kind words for his colleague. "Spoke with ellen d tonight aka @theellenshow‬. I will miss her on Idol. She's one of the kindest and most talented people in Hollywood," he tweeted.

On Thursday, Ellen announced her departure from the show in a statement she posted on her website. "It was a difficult decision to make, but my work schedule became more than I bargained for," she wrote. "I also realized this season that while I love discovering, supporting and nurturing young talent, it was hard for me to judge people and sometimes hurt their feelings. I loved the experience working on 'Idol' and I am very grateful for the year I had. I am a huge fan of the show and will continue to be."

'American Idol': Kara is reportedly out

The musical chairs at the judge's table of "American Idol" continue, as reports circulated Friday morning that Kara DioGuardi has been fired from the hit series.

TMZ reported that the songwriter/judge has been let go and follows Thursday's announcement from Fox that Ellen DeGeneres, who appeared for only a single season, has also departed the program. Meanwhile, Deadline.com identified actress/singer Jennifer Lopez as a judge when the show returns for its 10th season next year.

The reshuffling is far from over as the network scrambles to replace star judge Simon Cowell, who left the show in May amid great fanfare. Of the judges from last season, only Randy Jackson remains a judge on what is still America's most popular television series.

Montana Fishburne Revolutions: Laurence Fishburne daughter getting into Porn?

Montana Fishburne wants to be an actress...just not the kind that her father Laurence Fishburne is currently in.

On TMZ, they're reporting that Montana, daughter from Laurence's first marriage, is making a sex tape on purpose. From TMZ, ((TMZ has learned Montana Fishburne is starring in a porno flick for Vivid Entertainment -- explaining, "I've watched how successful Kim Kardashian became and I think a lot of it was due to the release of her sex tape." ))

You better believe Laurence is beyond pissed. Because I've listened to Dr. Drew a little bit too much, I think this a way to get back at her father for some reason. What better way to piss him off but to get into porn.

I also have to wonder if Brian Pumper had something to do with her new venture in Porn Alley. Supposedly, it was revealed that she's been secretly dating Mr. Pumper. Has this been confirmed?

Using sex tapes to get into acting or becoming famous aren't exactly the ways to get noticed and stay noticed. And, using Kim Kardashian as a career model isn't too smart, because Kim has nothing else to offer other than showing up to parties and reality shows. You'll get 15 minutes of fame, but that's about it. Hell, Paris Hilton's fame is starting to fade.

More wildfires hit California

The latest wildfire to hit Los Angeles County early Friday is known as Crown fire. It has affected some parts of Leona Valley, Ritter Ranch, Anaverde and Palmdale. Fire officials said that the fire has burned more than 5,000 acres. Hundreds of firefighters were trying to control the blaze and nearly 2000 residences had undergone “mandatory evacuations”.

Earlier this week, firefighters battled two wildfires that hit Southern California. The first fire known as the Bull Fire, hit the southeast part of Tehachapi. Authorities confirmed that the Bull Fire is now 12 percent contained and destroyed more than 16,000 acres. The second fire was in the northern part of Tehachapi in Sequoia National Forest and is known as the West Fire. It burned and destroyed 25 homes.

Spokeswoman Michelle Puckett of the U.S. Bureau of Land warned residents to keep their cars and house windows closed to prevent smoke inhalation

Rider’s Vision of Bigger Ramps Helps Launch Big Air

It started with some math and stolen lumber. Ten years later, and minus a spleen, Mat Hoffman’s pursuit of big air on his freestyle BMX bike led to a ramp the height of a two-story house that sent him flying more than 50 feet above an Oklahoma field in 2001.

Bob Burnquist’s Mega Ramp (Oct. 31, 2006)

• Times Topic: X Games

A decade later, Hoffman’s supersize stunts have contributed to BMX and Skateboarding Big Air events at the X Games, which begin Thursday in Los Angeles.

“He was the first guy to do any sort of big ramp stuff,” the skateboard icon Tony Hawk said in the film “The Birth of Big Air,” which chronicles Hoffman’s quest. “Now we’ve got the whole Big Air event in the X Games, and that’s largely because of Mat ever trying it or ever dreaming of it.”

Hoffman’s backyard stunts might have been the birth. But the Big Air events on the 62-foot-high, 293-foot-long Mega Ramp demonstrate a maturation.

On Thursday at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, competitors will start each judged run on their skateboards from an 80-foot roll-in that resembles a ski-jumping ramp and that will launch them over a 70-foot gap.

After landing, they zip up a 27-foot-high quarterpipe ramp that sends them soaring up to 50 feet above the ground, their height measured by a lighted tower that would look at home on the Las Vegas Strip. On Saturday, freestyle BMX competitors will take their turn at Big Air on the Mega Ramp.

“Hoffman kind of started the whole thing,” said Jake Brown, the 2009 winner of Skateboard Big Air. “He’s crazy.”

In 1999, Hoffman, known as Condor for his high-flying aerials, rode off a 3,500-foot cliff in Norway on his bike with a parachute strapped to his back. He has invented more than 100 tricks, and, for a decade, beginning in the 1980s, dominated competitive vertical riding.

Still, the credit and competitive spectacle surrounding Big Air come as something of a surprise to Hoffman, who is in Los Angeles this week to watch the Games with his family.

“I had no idea it would be a competition, because I never thought of it as a competition,” said Hoffman, 38, of Edmond, Okla., who participated in BMX Big Air in 2007. “I talked about doing demos as part of the first X Games, and people were like, ‘No, we can’t do that.’ It’s funny how it’s evolved in the last 10, 15 years. Now it’s become a prominent feature here.”

Cardinals-Tejada rumor has 'no traction'

According to Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, a rumor linking the Cardinals and O's infielder Miguel Tejada has "no traction."

Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com wrote of the Cardinals' interest on Twitter Wednesday afternoon, but Goold talked to a source a few hours later and got a different story. Tejada has no place on a contending team like the Cards. Sure, they're lacking in quality middle infielders, but Tejada is no longer a viable option at shortstop and he has a .673 OPS this season in Baltimore. It's actually refreshing to hear that the Cardinals are not pursuing him.

Drew Carey Weight Loss

Drew Carey’s weight loss did more than drop 80 pounds from his once more than ample frame: it also eliminated his type 2 diabetes. According to the host of The Price Is Right, he told People “I’m not diabetic anymore. No medication needed.”

The secret to Drew Carey’s weight loss is nothing mysterious: he cut out carbohydrates (although he admits he cheated a few times) and eats lots of egg whites, fruit, and Greek yogurt. His one and only beverage is water, and he does lots of cardiovascular exercise, at least 45 minutes a day.

It’s been shown that if you are overweight and have type 2 diabetes, losing a significant amount of weight not only lowers your blood sugar and improves your overall health, it can also eliminate your diabetes and thus your need for diabetes medication. However, doctors warn that if you are diabetic and are engaged in a weight loss program, it’s important to work with your doctor because your blood sugar, insulin, and diabetes medications need to be monitored.

According to Cathy Nonas, MS, RD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association, “No matter how heavy you are, you will significantly lower your blood sugar if you lose some weight.” In addition, “We see it all the time: people can get off their insulin and their medication.”

And that’s what happened to Drew Carey: his weight loss not only allowed him to get rid of his size 44 pants and slip into a size 33-34, it also let him get rid of his medications. He was quoted in a New York Daily Newsarticle, “Once I started dropping a couple pant sizes, then it was easy ‘cause once you see the results, then you don’t wanna stop.”

Drew Carey’s weight loss may inspire others to try losing weight the old-fashioned way: watching what you eat and exercising hard. Besides the possibility of eliminating type 2 diabetes, weight loss can also reduceblood pressure, lower your risk of heart disease, improve cholesterol levels, lighten stress on joints such as hips, knees, and ankles, and do wonders for your self-esteem.
