Verne Troyer Served With Restraining Order

Verne Troyer (Mini-Me) was recently served a temporary restraining order on behalf of drop dead stunner Yvette Monet. According to Monet, she and Troyer used to date, but broke up several months ago.

Now she claims to be afraid for her life, because like some rampaging Chucky doll, Verne just won’t leave her alone. She also claims that he has a gun, which I find hilarious, because I don’t know of any handguns that he could actually pull the trigger on. A rifle or shotgun is an even more side splitting possibility.

Verne Troyer Served With Restraining Order

According to Yvette (who I must assume really, really loved her Cabbage Patch Dolls as a child), Troyer has been calling her and text messaging her with threats, telling her that his friends “Burt” and “Jose” have guns and will do anything that he tells them to.

This is ridiculous.

Do people actually believe that some psychotic little Muppet has the power to convince not one but two (ahem) “full grown” men to do his bidding? Unlikely.

Verne Troyer Served With Restraining Order

Verne Troyer is best known for his role as Mini-Me in the Austin Powers films and for his drunken ridiculousness on the VH1 scumfest The Surreal Life, however some people know him as the little gnome that made a sex tape with former live in girlfriend Renae Shrider. Yuck.

‘Austin Powers’ Star Nabbed in Rape

An actor with a small but memorable part in the first ‘Austin Powers‘ movie has been charged in connection with an unsolved 1990 gang rape, according to a FOXNews.com report.

Joe Son, who played the shoe-throwing character Random Task (prompting the Mike Myers line “Who throws a shoe?”), was hit with a slew of charges on Oct. 1, including: Five felony counts of forcible rape, two felony counts of forcible sodomy, two felony counts of sodomy in concert by force, seven felony counts of forcible oral copulations and one felony count of sexual penetration by foreign object by force, according to an Orange County District Attorney’s Office release.

Son pleaded guilty to a felony vandalism charge in May, and when he was required to give a DNA sample, he was linked back to the 18-year-old Christmas Eve gang rape.

Judge Orders Verne Troyer Sex Tape Release

If you ever wanted to see Mini Me having sex, a judge says it’s okay:

quote-pic Judge okays Verne Troyer (\"Mini Me\") sex tape distribution The woman in a sex tape featuring Verne Troyer — best known for his role in the “Austin Powers” movies — says she allowed celebrity Web site TMZ to broadcast snippets of the tape. Troyer’s ex-girlfriend, Ranae Shrider, signed a declaration filed in federal court in Los Angeles stating the tape was created with her video camera. Her statement prompted a judge to allow TMZ to reinstate a post featuring snippets of the tape.

The judge had temporarily barred TMZ from showing or broadcasting any portion of the tape on its Web site or TV show. The post was restored by Tuesday evening.

The judge has still barred a porn distributor named in a $20 million lawsuit filed by Troyer from distributing or taking orders for the 50-minute tape.

Troyer starred as Mini Me in two “Austin Powers” movies. His lawsuit alleged the tape was stolen. Shrider’s statement says she believes she also owns the tape, but so far has only given permission to TMZ to air it.

This gives more credibility to Justice Potter Stewart’s famous line about pornography (actually, obscenity, if you want to be technical about it): “I know it when I see it.”  Still, there are some things I don’t want to see. This may just top the list.

Yes, that\'s Mini-Me Verne Troyer in a sex tape shot with his former live-in girlfriend at the couple\'s apartment.

The latter, the June 25th report that launched the suit in question, makes light of the whole matter,

Yes, that’s Mini-Me Verne Troyer in a sex tape shot with his former live-in girlfriend at the couple’s apartment. A third party has snatched up the tape and although no deal has been made, we hear dealer Kevin Blatt, who brokered the deal for Paris’ video, is entertaining a $100k offer from SugarDVD to distribute the nastiness. We would have thought the tape was worth at least ONE BILLION DOLLARS.

You can also view the actual video there, if you must. Gone Hollywood wouldn’t do that to you!

Hottest Hollywood Women Swimsuit Photos

Here’s some photos of the Hottest Hollywood Women in swimsuits, for those of us who spent Spring Break — stuck indoors.

Way better than a postcard, right?

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Jessica Alba - Photo

JESSICA ALBA
Into the Blue – 2005

The film’s title is an obvious reference to the ocean, into which Alba and on-screen beau Paul Walker dive in search of sunken treasure. But in our humble opinion, it is Jessica’s sexy blue bikini that gives new meaning to the term “treasure chest.”

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Ursula Andress - Photo

URSULA ANDRESS
Dr. No – 1962

You have to feel sorry for most Bond girls (except one … see next slide). After Honey Rider arose onto the shore (collecting seashells, naturally), in the first 007 adventure, her successors didn’t stand a chance. That’s a big pair of shoes — er, perfect-fitting swimsuit — to fill.

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Halle Berry - Photo

HALLE BERRY
Die Another Day – 2002

Sorry, Ursula. We know Halle’s emergence from the ocean in a bright orange bikini (accessorized with a very handy Bowie knife) is an obvious nod to your ‘Dr. No’ intro, but while we appreciate your hotness, Berry may just be the fairest Bond girl of them all.

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Kate Bosworth - Photo

KATE BOSWORTH
Blue Crush – 2002

In her star-making turn as a Hawaii surf bum, Bosworth proves a hot bikini isn’t just for soaking up sun. The Boz runs, surfs and jet-skis in it, and even wears it as underwear beneath her maid uniform (um, hot). Honestly, why does she even own other clothes?

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Phobe Cates - Photo

PHOEBE CATES
Fast Times at Ridgemont High – 1984

“The topless scene in ‘Fast Times at Ridgemont High’ was funny, which made it easy,” Cates has been quoted as saying about her iconic poolside scene. She’s right. In fact, it’s so hilarious we can’t stop watching it. Over and over and over again.

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Bo Derek - Photo

BO DEREK
10 – 1979

Dudley Moore knows the score. Sure, he had Julie Andrews at his side (a solid 6 … maybe even a 7 in ‘Sound of Music’) in this Blake Edwards comedy, but what can you say? The man’s a perfectionist. His dream girl Derek is a bona fide 11.

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Cameron Diaz - Photo

CAMERON DIAZ
Charlies Angels Full Throttle – 2003

Cam may go all gaga over the sight of fallen Angel Demi Moore in a bikini, but it’s a safe bet Demi was impressed with what she saw, too. Diaz plus a hot little white bikini equals pure heaven.

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Elizabeth Hurley - Photo

ELIZABETH HURLEY
Bedazzled – 2000

Not long after a shagadelic outing in ‘Austin Powers,’ Hurley tortured Brendan Fraser’s hapless stiff as the Devil. But really, who could resist a demon so delectable? Consider our soul sold. (Why doesn’t Hurley make movies anymore again?)

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Angelina Jolie - Photo

ANGELINA JOLIE
Laura Croft: Tomb Raider – 2001

With a body like Jolie’s, you’d think she’d wear a swimsuit more often in movies. Sadly (NOT!), she’s frequently gone topless instead. Still, Mrs. Brangelina did throw men a bone by donning this hot little number in ‘Tomb Raider,’ all in the name of butt-kicking action, of course.

Hottest Women in Swimsuits - Eva Mendes - Photo

EVA MENDES
Stuck on You – 2003

The Matt Damon-Greg Kinnear comedy about conjoined twins offered up about as many laughs as a separation surgery, but we’re not sure anyone noticed. Many viewers were too consumed with the red-hot Mendes — and an entirely different set of twins.

Vote for the top 6.

Paris Hilton Wants To Live In The Future

Paris Hilton Wants To Live In The Future - PIC

Who’s the idiot that told Paris Hilton about cryonics and freezing yourself until years into the future? Didn’t you know she’d take it seriously to try to spread the Paris Hilton gift for centuries to come? Whoever taught Paris about cryonics (and that had to take a long time – I bet weeks were spent on correct pronunciation alone) owes a debt to society. Or maybe we should be thanking you – those of us presently on this earth may not have to put up with her for as long as we otherwise would have.

Paris says the science of freezing could “extend her life by thousands and thousands of years.” So she wants to freeze herself with her dogs, and she’s invested a bunch of cash in the Cryonics Institute.

quote-picShe wants her body to be preserved and then brought back to life, along with her favourite pets, including her famous Chihuahua Tinkerbell and new mutt, Yorkshire Terrier Cinderella.

‘The Simple Life’ star said: “It’s so cool. Almost all the cells in the body are still alive when death is pronounced. And if you’re immediately cooled, you can be perfectly preserved.”

Can you imagine what Paris was thinking when someone told her about this? It was probably like, “oh, you mean like in ‘Austin Powers’. So I could wake up naked? Awesome.”

Elizabeth Hurley Weds Today!

Elizabeth Hurley married her long time lover this morning.

quote-picShe married her Indian businessman in a private civil ceremony at a 15-century castle, and photographers and spectators descended Saturday on this quiet town in western England to catch a glimpse of their lavish wedding party.

Gloucestershire County Council confirmed that Hurley and Arun Nayar married Friday at Sudeley Castle in Winchcombe, 125 miles west of London. The pair planned to hold a blessing and party at the castle later Saturday, with guests including Elton John, Kate Moss and Hurley’s ex, Hugh Grant.

Elizabeth Hurley Weds - PICSecurity guards on Saturday patrolled the castle grounds, set amid the Cotswold hills of western England. A large tent had been erected in the grounds, and a covered walkway led from the gardens to the building.

Hurley, 41, and Nayar, 42, reportedly have signed a lucrative deal with Hello! magazine for exclusive rights to images of the event. Hurley made appearances in the “Austin Powers” movies and “Bedazzled” and for several years was the international face of Estee Lauder cosmetics.

Several shopfronts in the picturesque town were adorned with signs and notices wishing the couple good luck.

“Obviously, people are out celebrity spotting I don’t think they’ll see any but they are out at the thought and it’s just a lot of excitement for the small town of Winchcombe,” said butcher Colin Pilcher.

According to reports, the couple will fly to India for celebrations in Mumbai and Rajasthan next week.

Taylor Hicks and Beyoncé Knowles Wal-Mart Concert

Taylor Hicks and Beyoncé Knowles Wal-Mart Concert Photo “American Idol” winner Taylor Hicks and Beyoncé Knowles, who has a large butt and apparently sings too, are will be performing live at the Wal-Mart annual shareholders meeting in Arkansas as I type.

One wonders if any of the board members have ever watched “American Idol,” let alone would recognize Beyoncé even if she walked up to them in her Foxxy Cleopatra outfit from the third Austin Powers flick?

I sorta doubt it.

At any rate, the video will be available online at 2:00 Eastern, according to an email sent by the Wal-Mart PR department.
