Donald Trump Used Ed McMahon for Publicity

Donald Trump clearly didn’t want to talk about why he is not becoming the proud owner of Ed McMahon’s mansion, at least not outside STK last night.

[see video]

Last night, Donald canceled his appearance on Larry King’s show, after stories surfaced that another buyer is purchasing Ed’s home, which was on the brink of foreclosure. Last week Trump said he’d buy the house and let Ed live in it for life.

Now Donald says someone came in and outbid him, but here’s the deal … the guy who’s buying it is moving in, so where will poor Ed go? Why couldn’t Donald up the ante? Was this all for publicity?

Donald Trump to Buy Ed McMahon’s Home

Donald Trump will soon be Ed McMahon’s landlord.

Trump announced Thursday he would save the television personality’s Beverly Hills mansion from foreclosure by buying it for an undisclosed amount and leasing it to McMahon.

The developer told the Los Angeles Times he doesn’t know McMahon personally, but acted out of compassion because helping out “would be an honor.”

McMahon, 85, who was Johnny Carson’s sidekick on the “Tonight” show for three decades, has not worked for about 18 months because of a neck injury. He defaulted on $4.8 million in mortgage loans with Countrywide Financial Corp.

McMahon’s spokesman, Howard Bragman, told The Associated Press that paperwork on the sale had not been completed but that McMahon was “very optimistic” the deal would go through.

“When I was at the Wharton School of Business I’d watch him every night,” Trump told the Times. “How could this happen?”

McMahon bought the six-bedroom, five-bathroom, 7,000-square-foot house in January 1990. The home was listed at $4.6 million last weekend — down from a peak price of $7 million.

I was totally waiting for SOMEONE to help McMahon. It saddened me that somebody as iconic as McMahon was even facing foreclosure — I’m surprised that somebody didn’t step up to the plate sooner.

Yes, “the Donald” is probably doing this for personal reasons, like say…publicity or to make a buck — but at least Ed will benefit as a result.

Miss Universe Pageant 2008

Dayana Mendoza was crowned Miss Universe, in a pageant dominated by Latin beauties. The 22-year-old girl was one of the favorites early on in the beauty contest, held in Vietnam.

Dayana proved her sense of humor while answering gracefully to her question regarding men having it easier in life. She replied,

“men think that the best way to reach a point is a straight line, but we women take some curves and detours to fix everything right”.

As history repeated itself, Miss USA fell during the night gown competition, just as it happened to last year’s contestant, Rachel Smith, during the 2007 Miss Universe pageant held in Mexico City.

Crystle Stewart quickly stood up, applauded along with the audience and with a smile, continued to model as it nothing had happened.

The Top 10 Contestants:

* Miss Venezuela Dayana Mendoza
* Miss USA Cyrstle Steward
* Miss Italy Claudia Ferraris
* Miss Russia Vera Krasova
* Miss Dominican Republic Marianne Cruz
* Miss Kosovo Zana Krasniqi
* Miss Australia Laura Dundovic
* Miss Spain Claudia Moro
* Miss Mexico Elisa Najera
* Miss Columbia Taliana Vargas

How bizarre is it, that for two years in a row our contestant falls down. I bet Donald Trump is involved somehow.

Donald Trump: Anne Hathaway is Disloyal

Donald Trump likes sticking his mouth in other people’s business.

The ‘Apprentice’ boss, who famously feuded with Rosie O’Donnell, is taking on another Hollywood woman. This time it’s ‘Get Smart’ star Anne Hathaway, MSNBC reports.

Trump thinks it was wrong of Hathaway to leave her boyfriend Rafaello Follieri just days before he was arrested for fraud.

“She hasn’t remained very loyal to him, has she?” Trump tells Access Hollywood.

“So when he had plenty of money, she liked him, but then after that, not as good, right?” he added.

Trump adds his thoughts on the disgraced businessman, who lived in one of Trump’s buildings.

“I’ve heard he’s very nice,” Trump said. “According to the help, no problems. But he’s got himself in a jam.”

Follieri, an Italian businessman who dated Hathaway for over 4 years, was arrested in June on charges he posed as a representative of the Vatican to fleece wealthy investors in a real estate company that sought to buy and redevelop Roman Catholic Church property.

Bail was set at $21 million. Federal prosecutors said they have “overwhelming” evidence that he improperly spent up to $6 million from investors, much of it on a lavish lifestyle, including privately chartered jet travel with his girlfriend and others, expensive meals and clothing and that apartment in one of Trump’s buildings.

Crystle Stewart Miss USA 2008

Crystle Stewart, a 26-year-old entrepreneur from Texas, was named Miss USA on Friday, beating 50 other beauty queens for the coveted crown.

quote2.jpgStewart, of Missouri City, Texas, runs a party-planning and motivational speaking company, as well as modeling professionally. She says she wants to dedicate her life to international philanthropy.

“I want to talk to people about how to set a goal and achieve it,” she told The Associated Press after the show. “Because I just achieved my goal.”

Stewart edged out first runner-up Leah Laviano of Mississippi and Tiffany Andrade of New Jersey.

Miss USA 2007 Rachel Smith relinquished the crown — and the posh New York apartment that comes with it — in a show aired live by NBC with hosts Donny and Marie Osmond from the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. The network co-owns the parent Miss Universe Organization with Donald Trump.

Smith, a former Miss Tennessee USA, said she was headed to Hollywood.

Stewart was headed for the publicity circuit. She said she was eager to travel and spread her message of self-improvement to young women. She noted she was one of only a handful of black woman crowned Miss USA in the pageant’s 57-year history.

“I think the United States is coming together,” she said, citing the historic presidential candidacies of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. She declined to name her preference.

“I don’t know, we’ll see. Fundamentally, I’m a Democrat,” she said.

Contestants from all 50 states and the District of Columbia have been in Las Vegas for nearly three weeks, rehearsing and hyping the 57th annual pageant. After stints in Baltimore and Los Angeles, organizers billed the new venue as a city beloved by the event’s international audience.

The pageant tried to showed off its edge, featuring a grinding live rock performance by the band Finger Eleven, music from Rihanna, and contestants in barely there black bikinis and faux-fur coats.

Donny and Marie kept up a steady stream of sibling banter even while swiftly whittling the field.

Donny Osmond told the losers to “put on a poker face” as he sent them home.

“Or use Botox; then it won’t move,” Marie quipped.

Stewart will compete in the Miss Universe pageant in Vietnam in July. She also becomes a spokeswoman for breast and ovarian cancer awareness and other causes, while traveling to promote the organization.

Trump Vodka Hires Underage Topless Model-Photos

Underage Topless Model Represents Trump’s Vodka-Photos

What is it with Donald Trumpattracting sluts who are always eager to show off their naughty bits? I guess that is just part of being a ho. At an event that was pimping Trump’s vodka, one his models was topless while representing his booze. At the time the aforementioned model was only 17.

Underage Topless Model Represents Trump’s Vodka-Photos

“MARC LOTENBERG’S 944 MAGAZINE HELD AN EVENT AT THE 944 SUPER VILLAGE WHERE THEY PROMOTED TRUMP VODKA AS WELL AS PROMOTING IT ALL OVER THE MAGAZINE. FOR THE EVENT 944 MAGAZINE HIRED AND BODY PAINTED A FEW MODELS. AS YOU CAN SEE ABOVE ONE OF THE MODELS WAS ONLY WAS ONLY 17 YEARS OLD (CHANELL). SHE WAS WALKING AROUND NAKED , PASSING OUT DRINKS AND DRINKING DURING THE WHOLE EVENT AND PROMOTING TRUMP’S VODKA!”

Underage Topless Model Represents Trump’s Vodka-Photos

Judging by the photos I can see where they didn’t question her age. She looks like she is about 38. I am guessing all the time put in at her local tanning bed combined with being a bit of a crotch jockey is taking its toll.
