[heh]… the title of this post is cracking me up. It’s the first thing I thought of when I saw these three pictures of Vanessa Minnillo, which were taken while taping MTV’s Total Request Live. That shirt is so low-cut, it wouldn’t take much for an accidental nip slip.

Rusty Shackleford reports,
A video showing Saddam Hussein shortly after he was executed has emerged on the internet. The video and images from it are shown below. The first uncut, uncensored, unedited video showing Saddam Hussein executed caused quite a stir. Another video of Saddam’s funeral has also been making the rounds.
This video does not show the execution. Rather, it shows Saddam’s body, proportedly right after he was hanged. The short video simply shows Saddam’s corpse under a sheet, and the effects that hanging had on his neck.
The video seems to have first emerged at a Shia website in Arabic, after which it was uploaded to Google.
Here’s the video:
Rusty has several rather graphic photos captured from the video as well.
UPDATE: AP has a substantial write-up, including a description of the video.
A new video of Saddam Hussein’s corpse, with a gaping neck wound, was posted on the Internet early Tuesday, the second leaked release of clandestine pictures from the former leader’s hanging.
The video appeared to have been taken with a camera phone, like the graphic video of the hanging which showed guards taunting Saddam in the final moments of his life.
The footage pans up the shrouded body of the former leader from the feet. It apparently was taken shortly after Saddam was executed and placed on a gurney. He was hanged shortly before dawn on Dec. 30. As the panning shot reaches the head region, the white shroud is pulled back and reveals Saddam’s head and neck. His head is unnaturally twisted at a 90 degree angle to his right. It shows a gaping bloody wound, circular in shape, about an inch below his jaw line on the left side of his neck. His left cheek is marked with red blotches, and there is blood on the shroud where it covered his head.
The newest video leak was likely to increase the angry reaction over the way the execution was carried out. There already has been a global outcry about the undignified manner in which the Shiite-dominated government hanged Saddam, a Sunni.
The 27-second video was posted on an Iraqi news Web site that is known to support Saddam’s outlawed Baath Party. “A new film of the late immortal martyr, President Saddam Hussein,” the web site said in a headline over a link to the video.
Voices could be heard on the video. As the shroud is pulled back, one voice says, “Hurry up, hurry up. I’m going to count from one to four. One, two … . Hurry up you’re going to get us into a catastrophe.” Then another voice, apparently the man taking the pictures, says, “Just one second, just one second, Abu Ali. I’m about finished.” Then a third voice says, “Abu Ali, you take care of this.”
It was the second clandestine video to have leaked, the first showing Saddam being taunted in his final moments. That clandestine video showed the former leader dropping through the gallows floor as he offered chanted prayers. It ends with his dead body swinging at the end of a rope.
The hanging video was in sharp contrast with an official video that was broadcast not long after Saddam’s execution which showed him standing silently on the gallows as the noose was put around his neck. The official video was muted.
The leaked hanging video, however, was shot from the floor of the gallows chamber, looking up at Saddam. Voices could be heard taunting him with cries of “Muqtada, Muqtada, Muqtada,” referring to radical anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, the leader of the Shiite Mahdi Army militia and a key support of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

Beyonce was on MTV’s “Total Request Live” today sporting this “Barbie-Doll-Like” fake hair. You know, the wired and really shiny kind. The kind that frizzes when you use a curling iron… yeah… that’s it. In a word, FUG!

Playboy creator Hugh M. Hefner is in the middle of an interview about his 80th birthday when a TV cameraman asks him to move a statue of former girlfriend Barbi Benton from the shelf behind him. The statue’s nude breasts were in the shot and that might not pass muster with TV decency standards. “As much as things change, they stay the same,” Hefner remarks, disappointment in his voice. “There is still controversy about, maybe even more than before, not just nudity — a nude statue.”
Benton’s heydey was a quarter century ago but she’s still amazingly popular. I still get visitors from a throwaway line about her in the comments section of a November 2003 post. She was almost certainly the premier Playmate of the era, crossing over into mainstream success with many appearances on popular television shows.
You can see why after the jump. (Not safe for work, needless to say).
  
Those photos certainly seem tame, don’t they? They could just about appear in Maxim or the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition today.
That is Hefner’s point — that Playboy with its mission of sexual liberation is as relevant as ever in these days of federal government crackdowns on television content that some consider indecent. “Attitudes toward nudity and Playboy have changed, in many ways, very little,” says the man who gave the world the Playboy centerfold. “In some ways it is even more political than it was in the ’50s and ’60s.”
[...]
Hef has a lot to make him feel young. He lives with three young, blonde girlfriends in his ornate mansion in Holmby Hills. Their life is being documented in a hit reality TV show on the E! channel, “The Girls Next Door.” His company is opening a new Playboy club in Las Vegas and a new edition of the magazine has debuted in Indonesia, sparking controversy in that largely Muslim nation.
[...]
Although he continues to personify the Playboy philosophy, he is not unaware of the passing years. “You come to a point in life in which you begin to lose some very dear friends, some of whom are peers in terms of age,” he said. “In the last few years, I have lost some very dear contemporaries, including my best buddy in high school, the first girl I went steady with, Mel Torme, one of my closest friends.”
Any regrets? “Certainly it is a life well-lived and I wouldn’t trade places with anybody,” he said. “My life has been so rewarding and so satisfying, I would be hesitant to change anything.”
You’d think that his lifestyle would kill a man of his age. It may well be that it instead keeps him young.
Jerry Norton of Reuters reported Friday on the controversial Indonesia Playboy
 Playboy magazine may no longer rate on the sexual cutting edge in some places, but the first edition in Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation, caused a stir Friday. Although the pictures inside showed less skin than U.S. issues 50 years ago, copies were being passed from desk to desk in Jakarta offices, high demand was reported, and newspapers and broadcasters dwelt at length on the Indonesian issue. A leader of one militant Islamic group threatened to use force, if necessary, to get the magazine withdrawn.
Like the iconic original, the Indonesian Playboy included a serious interview, in-depth articles and color pictures of women, including a fold-out. But no nipples were exposed in the photos, let alone anything approaching full nudity. “I didn’t see any surprising thing in this magazine. It depends on how people interpret it. For me, no problem,” Alex, a white-collar worker who did not want to give his full name, told Reuters Television.
A 40-year-old housewife, Maya, disapproved. “Surely it is against the new anti-pornography law,” she said. Condemnation also came from Chamammah Soeratno, head of the women’s wing of major Muslim moderate group Muhammadiyah. “Everyone knows it’s a pornographic magazine. The first edition may not have any nudity. That’s a very clever move by the publishers,” she told Reuters. Indonesia’s parliament is debating a law to significantly tighten control of media as well as public behavior in an effort to reduce what its proponents see as pornography.
Indonesia has many magazines on news stands that go further than the new Playboy in the sexual content of their articles and at least as far in their pictures. In fact, magazine and newspaper agent Azis, 41, told Reuters Playboy was not different enough from an existing upscale Indonesian men’s magazine, Matra. But even months ago the Playboy image and its Western origin had sparked protests at the mere news of plans for the Indonesian edition, despite promises of a tame version.
Then again, Playboy is still controversial in the United States, where there have been efforts to get the magazine taken off the shelves of military exchanges. Because, while we may send our soldiers off to war, we shouldn’t expose them to bare bosoms.

Life Style Extra reports that hotel heiress and scank-about-town Paris Hilton has made a lesbian sex tap with Nicole Lenz, a woman of whom I had not heard who has apparently been in Playboy.
Paris Hilton made a lesbian sex tape with a Playboy pin-up, it has been claimed. The hotel heiress allegedly made the “horniest videotape of all time” with Playboy beauty Nicole Lenz.
The model claims she romped with Paris – who unintentionally starred in X-rated home movie ‘One Night In Paris’ with ex-boyfriend Rick Solomon – for the camera in 2003. The pair had checked into a $500-a-night suite at the Bellagio Hotel, in Las Vegas, after a night out partying when things allegedly got steamy.
Lenz is quoted in Britain’s News of the World newspaper as saying: “The moment we were in the room Paris had only one thing on her mind – sex. “We lied down on a king size bed and took it in turns to play with each other. It wasn’t long before we were naked and rolling around together.” Lenz also claims she and Paris pleasured each other with sex toys. She added: “We just pleasured each other for hours, recording it all. “Paris had brought all manner of sex toys – to make sure we didn’t miss out on anything simply because there was no man in bed with us!”
If true, an uncharacteristic amount of thinking ahead for Ms. Hilton.
 The Superficial reports that it was Lenz who dubbed it the “horniest videotape of all time.” The reporter opines, “And as hot as I’m sure the tape is, trying to picture Paris Hilton having sex with Nicole Lenz is like picturing an oversized praying mantis trying to mount a barbie doll.” He then discusses the implications of that for those engaged in auto-erotic behavior.
Wizbang Pop’s Mac Stansbury reports having stills from the video and warns, “It will make you pine for the days of ’1 Night in Paris.’ Needless to say, don’t see this one in the theater, wait for it to come out on DVD.” Truly a shame, considering all the additional acting experience Hilton has gained in the intervening period.
