This story strikes me as extremely odd, but I’m sure some of y’all will have something to say about it. So, have at it. More here.

Besides, having a post with the title “Britney Spears nude” is sure to bring in some additional web traffic. :) Just to make for more unique search possibilities, perhaps I should mention Jenna Jameson, too. (Link SFW — it actually goes to a fairly interesting, Arizona-related news story. Background info here and here. The first background link includes the following quote from Jameson: “There is never anything tawdry or seedy about anything I do.” Heh.)

There, that oughta produce some serious search engine hits. :)

UPDATE: Follow-up post here.

It’s Mardi Gras night (well, morning now), and women in New Orleans are showing Anderson Cooper their boobies.

I’m not sure if he’s interested, ladies… :)

P.S. Wonkette notes a typo in Cooper’s boobieful dispatch, and says, “That’s okay, Anderson, we understand. We never figured you for a breast guy!” Heh.

Following up on HotCheerleaderLesbianSexGate, the story that captivated the blogosphere (or at least its horny heterosexual male contingent) last fall, The Smoking Gun has obtained the police reports from the incident, including witness statements which seem to cast a considerable amount of doubt on the ex-cheerleader Angela Keathley’s claim that fellow ex-cheerleader Renee Thomas was merely “comforting her” after she ran into an ex-boyfriend at Banana Joe’s bar in Tampa last November. This statement is particularly, um, compelling:

Amanda Miner stated that she was in the ladies restroom waiting to use the restroom when she noticed that two females were engaged in what she believed to be sexual activity in one of the bathroom stalls. Miner said that defendant Keathley was standing on the toilet and her head was over the stall wall. She observed Keathley’s facial expressions and saw her eyes rolling back into her head. Miner said that Keathley was moaning as a person does during sexual activity. Miner further stated that one of the girls that was in the front of the line looked over the stall wall and told everyone that one of the girls was “Going Down” on the other.

Well, hey, maybe she was comforting her, come to think of it. That’s one way to take a person’s mind off an old flame! :)

Renee Thomas, left, and Angela Keathley, right: Did they or didn’t they?

Actually, the best part of the police report is what comes immediately after the above-quoted excerpt. The officer summarizing the witness’s statement felt the need to clarify: “‘Going Down’ is slang for oral sex.” Heh.

Anyway, that version of events (corroborated by two other witness statements) certainly doesn’t seem to jive with the ex-cheerleaders’ insistence that there was “no sex” (unless perhaps they’ve retained Bill Clinton as counsel), and that the “moaning” heard by the people waiting in line was really the sound of the traumatized Keathley crying. Standing on top of a toilet and letting your eyes roll back in your head does not seem the most obvious way to react to being “emotional” after running into an ex-boyfriend… but the hotties are sticking to their guns:

“My client has previously denied that any sexual activity ever took place in that bathroom stall and she denies it again,” [Thomas’s lawyer] Pete Anderson said Wednesday. “The sex never happened. The police reports released on Wednesday were based upon witness statements that are simply not credible. We believe a number of other witness statements were taken where the individuals denied that the cheerleaders were having sex.” Anderson said Keathley and her lawyer joined in the statement.

Seriously, Angela and Renee… it’s not too late to reconsider that Penthouse offer…

Previous blogospheric discussion of the Smoking Gun statements can be found here. As you can see, I’m several weeks behind the curve on this one; the reports appeared on The Smoking Gun on February 1, but I only found out about it just now, by chance. (Surely someone must have seen this. No e-mail tips? Throw me a freakin’ bone here! :) Sorry for the delay… but “better late than never” is my philosophy, particularly when the topic is hot NFL cheerleaders allegedly having lesbian sex in a public bathroom stall.

Oh, and if anyone is offended by my coverage of this story… uhh… sorry… but, well, you know what I said about the “horny heterosexual male contingent” of the blogosphere? Yeah, well, just because I’m married doesn’t mean I’m not still a part of that contingent. :) Anyway, I promise I won’t post anything else about this story… until something else awesome happens… :)

Heterosexual men around the world were crushed when two hot ex-cheerleaders denied that they were engaging in some girl-on-girl bathroom action a few months back… but, God bless England, this story is the real deal:

Two women were caught romping in a train station toilet, a court heard yesterday.

Nicola Hudson, 22, and Ann-Marie O’Neill, 29, were heard “moaning and groaning” by a cop at Manchester Piccadilly.

He looked over a cubicle wall and saw O’Neill naked from the waist down, kneeling and caressing a topless Hudson.

After several minutes the officer told them to stop and get dressed.

LOL! Well, I’m glad he at least enjoyed the show for a few minutes! :)

I knew there was a good reason I chose Andrew to be my best man. Many thanks to Mr. Long for alerting me to the crucially important fact that there have been new developments in the hot lesbian cheerleader sex story.

It is being widely reported that Angela Keathley — the brunette — has pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct and obstructing a police officer. But according to the Charlotte Observer, that’s not quite correct:

A former Carolina Panthers cheerleader arrested after a November fight at a Tampa, Fla., nightclub has been accepted into a six-month diversion program for first-time offenders that could get the charges against her dropped.

Angela Keathley will receive six months probation, must perform 32 hours of community service, write an apology to Tampa police and pay court fees, said assistant state attorney Pam Bondi.

If Keathley completes the program and stays out of trouble during the next six months, the charges of disorderly conduct and obstructing or opposing a police officer would be removed from her record, Bondi said.

She did not have to enter a guilty plea to join the program.

Blogger Tom Moran at CelticProgressive says the Panthers should re-hire Keathley:

Now that the legal part of her case is over, I think Ms. Keathley should get her job back — don’t you? After all, if one of the players had been sentenced to probation after a minor scuffle in a bar, you can bet your ass that he’d still be on the team. It’s only the rankest hypocrisy that gives a woman greater punishment than a man for the same offense.

Meanwhile, the blonde, Renee Thomas, has pleaded not guilty to battery, presenting a false driver’s license, and giving a false name, causing harm to others. She has another court appearance on Feb. 15.

Thomas has also been sued in civil court by Melissa Holden, the woman she allegedly punched. Holden wants $15,000 in damages for her injuries. Thomas is countersuing for defamation, saying Holden falsely claimed the cheerleaders were having lesbian sex. “It was the false allegation in regards to the sexual activity that spun things out of control,” said Thomas’s attorney, Peter Anderson. (”You have no idea,” responded every heterosexual man in America.)

You know, Renee, if you had accepted Penthouse’s offer, that would have been a much surer way to collect money than countersuing. Just saying.

The Hater Nation has thoughts on the story, as does Deadspin.

Drew Barrymore’s wardrobe wasn’t functioning too well last night at the Golden Globe Awards, and it caused quite a stir in the blogosphere and the media. The kerfuffle was even mentioned on ESPN’s Pardon the Interruption, with a segment asking which was the “bigger bust,” the Bears’ defense or Barrymore. Heh.

Some people felt that Barrymore’s “breasts were attacking me, like 3-D Godzilla-style, from the screen.” Others just wanted her to “put on a bra.”

See also here. I’m providing these photos for educational purposes only, of course. :)

Barrymore, you’ll recall, famously flashed her boobs (link not entirely SFW) at David Letterman on the Late Show once upon a time.

Casey: “brendanloy.com is having a bowl contest! First prize is an all access pass to West Virginia cheerleader Lara Benninger.” Heh. Y’all wish.

Speaking of which, Lara needs your vote! The talk-radio automatons are once again doing their thing, and a result, Kelly leads Lara, 5,859 to 4,406 through three-plus days of voting since Athlon re-opened the polls in their hottest-cheerleader contest. All the other contestants, including the lovely Megan, are again trailing far behind.

(Previous posts here, here, here, here, here, here and here. Man, I miss having blog categories.)

The polls are open until January 5, and you’re allowed to vote once per registered e-mail address per day. And you know all those “Rick & Bubba Army” people have probably signed up for 10 Gmail accounts just to vote for Kelly (a.k.a. “Rock Steady“) over and over… so yeah. Vote early and often! Go Lara!

Oh, and about the bowl pick ‘em contest… enter now if you haven’t yet! The deadline is Tuesday, remember.

I figure this is an appropriate story to blog about, mere hours before I take my Freedom of Speech exam…

Some of you may have heard already about a certain “incident” at the University of Western Ontario involving a college freshman, boobies, and the Internet. It turns out that, back in October, a resident of Saugeen-Maitland Hall decided to give one of her male dormmates a birthday present… by performing a striptease for him (and about a half-dozen of his closest friends).

Now, that’s cool and all (I mean, damn, I thought it was nice when my dormmates gave me a giant box o’ snacks for my birthday), but of course, this is 2005, so it didn’t end there. Naturally, someone had a camera, which means pictures were taken, e-mailed to buddies, and before long, uploaded to the Internet. Enter stage right, cranky university administrators:

[B]ecause the young woman apparently performed willingly in the privacy of a residence room and no one filed a complaint, the school says it likely has no cause for discipline.

“We certainly regret this has happened; it’s not something the university condones and we are very disappointed in these students, but rooms in residence are considered to be students’ homes, and what goes on between consenting adults in the privacy of their homes is considered to be their business,” said Susan Grindrod, Western’s vice-president of housing.

“What’s different in this case is that these pictures are going all over the world. With the Internet and personal blogs, pictures can be circulated very quickly, and I’m not sure how we would regulate students’ blogs and websites even if we wanted to,” said Grindrod.

As soon as the raunchy images came to the attention of the administration, officials approached the young woman to ask if she had been forced to strip or tricked into being photographed without her knowledge. She said she had not.

“We were immediately proactive because we wanted to know if there had been any coercion and she told us she was a consenting participant and she was aware that pictures were being taken,” said Grindrod.

“If there had been any coercion, there absolutely would have been repercussions. We do plan to talk to the other (male) students involved and continue to review the situation. It’s still early in the game for us to have figured out how to proceed.”

Actually, in fairness, that’s one of the most level-headed, reasonable-sounding university administrators I’ve ever heard quoted in the press. She’s certainly light years ahead of the idiots at Penn. Anyway, here’s another story about the incident.

Amusingly, “University of Western Ontario” is currently the #2 most popular search on the blog portal Technorati. Heh. There are lots of fellow perverts Internet consumers out there, doing exactly what roughly 50% of you are planning to do immediately after reading this post: trying to find the pictures.

Well, I’ll save you the trouble… sort of. Upon further consideration, I’m not going to link directly to the photo gallery… but let’s just say that if you click here (contains one non-nude, SFW pic) and then, uh, scroll down a bit, you’ll find a link to what you’re looking for, if you’re interested.

All I can say is… O Canada!

P.S. My favorite pic is the 18th 19th one in the gallery. Just sayin’. :) I love the looks on both of their faces — the stripper and the strippee — and also the movie poster on the wall directly behind the guy. The movie? Blow. Heh. He wishes. :)

UPDATE: Some further thoughts on the scandal from fellow UWO students Paige (SFW) and Alex (possibly NSFW because of a photo of what appears to be another “incident” at Saugeen-Maitland Hall; there’s nudity, but you can’t really “see anything”). And yet another UWO student, Laura (SFW), points out that there are t-shirts. Heh.

Incidentally, the University of Western Ontario has an undergraduate population of about 25,000 students, according to Wikipedia, and Saugeen-Maitland Hall, popularly known as “The Zoo” because of its party-hard reputation, has 1,252 residents, also according to Wikipedia. Here’s more from the official dorm wiki.

The hottest-cheerleader voting is once again underway!

To prevent further election fraud, you now have to register to vote (imagine that).

For the moment, I’m splitting the difference with my endorsement: vote for either Lara (if your priority is cuteness and a pretty face) or Megan (if your priority is, uh, well, see for yourself). :)

I’ll wait and see who needs my support more as the race goes on. You can vote once per day until January 5.

The very, very early returns show a Hokie out front, with previous front-runners Lara and Kelly in second and fourth, respectively, and Megan, who had previously been languishing in the doldrums, now a strong third:

Dana Felder (Virginia Tech) 29
Lara Benninger (West Virginia) 21
Megan Martz (Indiana) 18
Kelly Dupree (Kentucky) 9
Shaina (Arizona State) 6
Alaina Carson (Auburn) 1
Casey Martin (Texas Tech) 1

Have the anti-fraud measures neutralized Kelly’s talk-radio advantage? Only time will tell. But don’t count out the Rick & Bubba Army. (See also here.)

UPDATE, 1:22 AM: Lara has surged ahead of Dana, 37-35! Megan is still third with 18; Kelly has 10.

UPDATE, 3:31 AM: Lara 57, Dana 40, Megan 32, Kelly 21, Shaina 14, Alaina 3, Casey 2. (”Oprah… Uma. Shaina… Alaina.”) But a commenter on the WVU boards thinks we can expect a Kelly surge in the morning. The Rick & Bubba Show airs from 7-11 AM EST. (Listen here.)

I never knew the price of admission to the mile-high club could be so, uh, high. (See also here, here and here.)

Some folks sure do get belligerent after sex. These people should be Carolina Panthers cheerleaders. :)

Athlon Sports’s hottest-cheerleader contest (previous posts here, here, here, here and here) has been suspended because of voting irregularities:

Athlon Sports and Samsung are excited about the participation and enthusiasm generated from the 2005 Sideline Spirit Contest. Despite our efforts to secure voting and prevent fraudulent activity, we have had issues with individual users ‘gaming’ the system and voting multiple times in a 24-hour period.

In order to be fair to our seven finalists, we are increasing security over the next few days and will require registration in order to vote. We are re-setting all voting totals to zero and starting the final round over on Dec. 14. The round will close on Jan. 5 at midnight, leaving 22 days for visitors to participate.

When the contest re-opens, we will have updated galleries of our finalists. Thanks again for your participation!

“Fraud!” cried the drooling thousands, and the hotties answered, “Fraud!” :)

Naturally, I blame talk radio. :) You may recall that Kelly was the object of a talk-radio campaign that had her doing very well in the contest. Over on the Rick & Bubba Show’s website, here’s what they have to say about the election re-do:

Ok Rick & Bubba Army, we can regroup and prepare for the next battle knowing we are on an even playing surface.

Yeah, like the “Rick & Bubba Army” aren’t the ones who were committing the fraud in the first place! (Huh? Evidence, you say? Bah! I don’t need no stinkin’ evidence!)

Anyway… so yeah, the polls re-open tomorrow. What to do, what to do? Previously, I had been stumping for the lovely Lara, owing to the “Florida-close” race between her and the aforementioned, not-as-lovely* Kelly, with everyone else far behind. But I really think that Megan should win. Not only is she from the flagship public university of the state where I currently reside, but she’s also, like way hot and stuff!

So, who should I vote for, and endorse here on Bloy? Lara or Megan? Decisions, decisions…

*No offense to Kelly. I’m not saying she’s not lovely… just that she’s clearly not as lovely as Lara, whose face could launch at least several hundred ships, not to mention set law students’ hearts racing.

UPDATE: Aha! Here’s some evidence:

Post #2484
Re: Kelly Dupree

I spent all last night and half the morning giving her votes until that site got tired of me giving her votes from my computer. It told me i had given the maxium amount of votes from my ip addy” lol I bet I have gave her a good 1000 votes, now i cant vote any more. please keep supporting her

The West Virginia fans were doing the same thing, though, it seems.

Shortly (a few hours at most) before the voting was suspended, the tally (as of 9:03 AM on Friday, according to this post) was:

Lara Benninger (West Virginia) 63,628 / 39 %
Kelly Dupree (Kentucky) 61,919 / 38 %
Dana Felder (Virginia Tech) 12,494 / 7 %
Megan Martz (Indiana) 7,125 / 4 %
Alaina Carson (Auburn) 5,936 / 3 %
Casey Martin (Texas Tech) 3,581 / 2 %
Shaina (Arizona State) 6260 / 3 %

It’s Florida-close again in the cheerleader voting:

Lara Benninger (West Virginia) 48,364
Kelly Dupree (Kentucky) 48,348

I can’t handle the suspense! :)

Anyway… keep on voting for Lara!! The Kentucky talk-radio conspiracy must and shall be defeated! :)

After briefly taking the lead overnight, the adorable Lara Benninger of WVU has once again fallen behind Kelly Dupree of UK in the Athlon cheerleader voting. Kelly must have gotten another talk-radio boost this morning. But the margin is less than 0.4%. Each IP address is allowed to vote once per day. So c’mon… rock the vote, people!!! :)

(Previous posts here, here and here. Yes, I’m obsessed. :)

Earlier, I linked for a second time to Athlon Sports’s hottest cheerleader contest, and noted that the race between Kentucky’s Kelly Dupree (whose support is the result of a talk-radio conspiracy; see also here) and West Virginia’s Lara Benninger (whose support is the result of her yummy, all-American good looks, which get law students’ hearts racing) was tightening up:

it’s squeaky-close (though not quite Florida-close or King County-close)

Well, guess what? It’s Florida-close!!! As of 12:23 AM, Kelly had an eight vote lead, 41,638 to 41,630. But as of 12:30 AM, Lara has overtaken her, 41,656 to 41,648. Woohoo! Let’s keep the momentum going! Vote early, vote often, vote from multiple IP addresses, but whatever you do, vote for Lara!

Oh, and for those of you who think this whole topic is sexist… lighten up! [UPDATE: It has come to my attention that perhaps I should take my own advice. The above-linked comment is a “Saved by the Bell” reference that went right over my head, and thus was probably not intended to be taken seriously. Still, just in case anyone really is thinking this, I’ll continue with my rant.] We’re just having a bit of fun, and it’s not like these women are being taken advantage of in some way; they’re willing participants in their own blatant objectification! Anyway, if Boi From Troy or some other gay male or straight female blogger linked to a similar contest where you could vote among hunky male cheerleaders (or firefighters or federal-judge superhotties or whatever), I would have absolutely no problem with it. (The question for Ms. Spano and her ilk is: would you?) I might not personally be as interested as I am in this contest, but that’s not because I’m sexist, it’s because I’m heterosexual! Anyway… like I said, lighten up. I’m as big a supporter of female equality as you’ll find (I consider myself a feminist), but there are way more pressing women’s rights issues to be concerned about than a bunch of horny guys on a blog voting for their favorite hot cheerleader.

P.S. Becky, whose feminist credentials are impeccable — she’s the former president of the USC Women’s Student Assembly and co-creator (with me) of a feminist newspaper — agrees with me. “It’s rather silly to get all upset about that,” she says.

Following up on my previous post… it’s squeaky-close (though not quite Florida-close or King County-close) in the cheerleader voting between the not-all-that-attractive Kelly Dupree of Kentucky and the totally-way-cute Lara Benninger of West Virginia. At this hour, Kelly inexplicably leads, 39,173 to 38,507. (Even more inexplicable is the poor showing of hottest-girl-in-the-finals Megan Martz of Indiana, who has just 6,157 votes. I suspect anti-Hoosier bias!)

Anyway… Save America! Vote for Lara!

P.S. Back in Round 2, WVU’s Lara just barely defeated IU’s Megan in a result that was Florida-close: 90,797 to 90,764. (That’s a .018% margin!) So what happened? Where did all of Megan’s fans go?
