Culture: TIGER WOODS NUDE PHOTOS? WHAT? PLAYGIRL FREAKS OUT

  • Tiger Woods is currently seeing his life getting destroyed. Apparently, because all the juicy crap in the previous post wasn’t enough, Playgirl has something potentially even more damaging on the table. Apparently, there are nude photos – likely cell-phone shot – of everyone’s favorite family-friendly golfer in the buff. Jesus Christ. You know what, this shit isn’t even funny anymore. LEAVE TIGER ALONE! source

Culture: All this quote needs is Balloon Boy to cause a world implosion

  • I kind of have a crush on Jon Gosselin. I think he’s hot!
  • Octet Mom Nadya Suleman • Talking about the massive family that replaced her as the tabloid topic du jour this year. She had advice for Kate too, but who cares? We’re just scared of the idea of this woman procreating with that man. Wonder where one buys a house that holds 22 kids. • source

Offbeat: Remember Mary Kay LeTourneau? She’s still diggin’ on her student

  • It wouldn’t be funny if it was a situation that was happening right now. But it’s a situation that happened a long time ago, she served her time, now they’re married, they had kids together, and we’re just having fun.
  • Mike Morris • Owner of Fuel Sports Eats and Beats in Seattle, which hosted a “Hot for Teacher” night featuring Mary Kay Letourneau, shamed years ago for having a relationship with her student, and Vili Fualaau, the former student (and current husband) who DJ’ed at the event as DJ Headline. It’s like creepy and awesome at the same time. • source

Culture, World: A “Slumdog” child actress + the British press = Sketchiness

  • “My daughter is not for sale.” You mean he had to clarify? Rafiq Qureshi, father of “Slumdog Millionaire” child actress Rubina Ali, denies reports that he demanded money to sell his now-famous daughter. British rag News of the World (who broke the Michael Phelps pot scandal) apparently tried to trick him into selling his daughter, under the guise that he was talking to a wealthy Arab couple looking to adopt, not some douchebag with zero ethics working as an intern for News of the World. He said he was trapped into a tempting situation but never once tried to sell her. You suck, News of the World. source

  • A public life Goody first became a fixture in the British press – specifically the British tabloid press – after starring on the British version of “Big Brother” in 2002. Goody took advantage of her notoriety by marketing the heck out of her public image. She took a PR hit in 2007 after making racist remarks on the celebrity edition of “Big Brother” but managed to recover to some degree. source

Culture: Like watching child birth? How about eight at once, say, an octet?

  • There’s a video. TMZ was offered it for sale. The video, which shows the beauty of childbirth more times than you might want to see in one setting, was offered to numerous media outlets, but the agency brokering the deal put a temporary hold on the sale on Friday. Yo Nadya, please leave this treasured moment in the family video collection – we beg of you. source
