Anthony Weiner is in the middle of “weinergate” after nude photos that he sent of his wiener on Twitter showed up online, and now to add to his scandal he and his wife are expecting a baby.
Weiner and his wife, Huma Abedin, are expecting their first child together according to sources who tell the New York Times that she is in the early stages of her pregnancy.
Most people expected the couple to split up following the scandal that has been going on recently but during a news conference the other day he said “we will weather this, I love her very much, and she loves me.”
I guess congratulations are in order for them, hopefully things go more smoothly for them if she is indeed pregnant.
Democratic congressman Anthony Weiner has been caught with his pants down. Literally. The New York Rep. has been denying allegations that he has been tweeting photos of his wiener and sending lewd photos to six different women.
After finally getting caught in his lies, the man responsible for what is being dubbed ‘Weinergate’ has finally admitted to his dirty dealings.
The actual pic of his peen has not surfaced until today, when blogger Andrew Breitbart, who had been holding onto Wiener’s picture as insurance, let the pic slip on Opie & Anthony’s Sirius show today.

Heidi Jones, the weatherperson on New York’s WABC (and occasionally on Good Morning America), told police that a man had attacked her and tried to rape her as she was jogging in Central Park in September. Police say she lied.
She told police that on September 24, a Hispanic man grabbed her while she was jogging in the park, pulled her into the bushes, and tried to rape her. After an investigation turned up nothing, her story started to fall apart:
The first clue was that she waited until Nov. 24, two months later, to report the alleged attack, the sources said.
At the time, the sources said, she told police that three days earlier, on Nov. 21, the same man somehow found her again and harassed her, saying, “I know you went to the police.”
The Post says that Jones eventually admitted that she made up the story “in a plea for sympathy to counter some unknown setback that she was experiencing in her personal life.” An odd and perhaps very sad case.
Lindsay Lohan (with extra plump lips) lost her phone last night so she decided to waste all tax payers money and call the police.
Lindsay was apparently at Mott Corner Deli in New York City at around 7:30 PM when she was buying some food, but once she left she realised she didn’t have her phone.
She then went back to the deli to get her phone but the person working in the deli wanted to check the security tapes to double check that it was indeed Lindsay’s phone he was giving to her.
This went down like a house on fire with Lindsay who went into a rage and had one of her friends call the NYPD to deal with the situation, when they arrived it had all solved itself out.
After the whole drama, Lindsay took her 15 year old sister, Ali Lohn, out on the town to party with Diddy at the Waverly Inn.
Someone please tell Lindsay Lohan that she does not have the right to use the taxpayers money and police officers at her discretion anymore, not until she gets a hit film at least.

Adriana Lima attended some Louis Vuitton event in New York City the other night and here is evidence that while she is pregnant – she is still hot.
But in other and more “crucial” news the Victoria’s Secret model has admitted that she doesn’t like chocolate anymore since got pregnant.
She says “It’s funny because I used to love chocolate — I was such a chocolate lover until I got pregnant! But now it just doesn’t appeal to me at all. I haven’t really had any since I got pregnant. I guess that’s a good thing since it’s chocolate and it’s probably not good for the baby to eat too much sugar, but I hope I get my love of chocolate back afterwards because I really did enjoy it!”
Adriana who is expecting her first baby with Marko Jaric sometime in the winter also said “I’ve really never felt better. I feel like I’m glowing because I just – right now – I just have everything. My life is complete right in this moment. We actually went out and bought a stroller the other day even though I’m only 17 weeks pregnant! Marko was telling me that he can’t wait to push the stroller around and how he’s going to be the proudest dad in the whole world.”
To be honest, I just really wanted to post these pictures of Adriana Lima looking hot and showing her big boobs.
Legally blind New York Gov. David Paterson lambasted a “Saturday Night Live” skit for portraying him as an aimless bumbler.
But those who have watched the sharp-witted Paterson over his two decades in public service know how he might have deadpanned in the past: I didn’t see it.
The skit that aired Saturday featured “SNL” cast member Fred Armisen as Paterson, who must appoint someone to replace Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. Armisen said he has three criteria for filling the job: economic experience, upstate influence and someone who is disabled and unprepared for the job – like himself.
He held up a chart illustrating the state’s job losses upside down.
“I don’t mind that they make fun of me, but I thought it was important of me to stand up for people who don’t have a voice and don’t have a job,” Paterson said.
Marc Liepis, a spokesman for NBC, which broadcasts “Saturday Night Live,” said the network would not comment.
Spitzer resigned his position as governor back in March after it was unveiled he was part of a prostitution ring called the Emperors Club.
Garcia’s statement reads “after a thorough investigation, this office has uncovered no evidence of misuse of public or campaign funds. In light of the policy of the Department of Justice with respect to prostitution offenses and the longstanding practice of this office, as well as Mr. Spitzer’s acceptance of responsibility for his conduct, we have concluded that the public interest would not be further advanced by filing criminal charges in this matter.”
Mark Brener, the leader of the Emperors Club pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges after prosecutors said his services charged between $1,000 and $5,500 an hour for trysts in New York; Los Angeles, California; Miami, Florida; London, England; and Paris, France. Police seized more than $1 million in cash from Brener’s apartment at the time of his arrest.
Quentin Tarantino is planning to remake Russ Meyer’s graduate thesis on the complex and intertwined relationship between heaving bosoms and ultraviolence, Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!
The New York Post reports that porn queen Tera Patrick is being considered for a role. “Quentin loves her, and she’s a dead ringer for original star Tura Satana.” said the source.
Patrick gushes over the Russ Meyer 1966 cult film about three women on a violent desert road trip.
“It would be the hottest remake ever, and I’m honored to be considered,” she told Page Six. “I was built for this part.”
Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! is a 1965 film directed by Russ Meyer, who also wrote the script with Jack Moran. It stars Tura Satana, Haji, and Lori Williams.
The film features gratuitous violence, sexuality, provocative gender roles, and campy dialogue. It has become a cult film favorite and has been widely referred to in pop culture.
It is one of Meyer’s more provocatively titled and explicitly exploitative films, yet unlike most of his films, it does not contain explicit nudity.
Sarah Jessica Parker attended Tuesday night’s All-Star game, and hit the field beforehand for an announcement about cancer research — but something was noticeably missing.
Parker has long had a trademark mole on her chin, which has been visible throughout her career, but now it appears to be missing in action.
At least one of the remarkably cruel reviews of “Sex and the City: The Movie” commented on her beauty mark. The New York Observer’s Rex Reed began his review with the following:
There’s nothing wrong with Sarah Jessica Parker that couldn’t be cured by wart-removal surgery. That growth on her face just gets bigger with every close-up, and in the full-length movie version of Sex and the City it’s so distracting you can’t concentrate on anything else. It’s not a beauty mark. I guess you can’t tell a co-producer anything, but listen up, girl. At this point, you would make a wonderful Halloween witch.
There’s no word yet on whether she removed the mole for medical or cosmetic reasons. Personally, I didn’t find the mole that offensive… it’s not like she had big black hairs growing out of it.

Madonna made an appearance at a New York Yankee game on Saturday, July 12th — She was in the front row looking and cheering on New York Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez.
Rodriguez , who was photographed waiting to bat against the Toronto Blue Jays during the third inning of their MLB American League baseball game in Toronto, didn’t appear to be all that happy to see his “soul mate“.
Rod Stewart: Grave Digger
After playing semi-pro soccer, Rod the Mod abandoned his athletic dreams to work with the dead. He dug graves at London’s Highgate Graveyard but laid down his shovel after just a few weeks.
Chubby Checker: Chicken Plucker
Before he was twisting, the rock ‘n’ roll legend was plucking. As a teenager, the man born Ernest Evans tore the feathers off dead chickens at the Fresh Farm Poultry Market in Philadelphia, where his boss gave him the nickname “Chubby” and occasionally let him sing to customers over the loudspeaker.
David Lee Roth: Hospital Orderly
Long before Van Halen, the not-yet-Diamond Dave fluffed pillows and emptied bedpans in a hospital. It’s a career field he almost went back to post-stardom — in 2004, Roth started training to become a paramedic.
Madonna: Doughnut Slinger
As a struggling dancer in New York City, Her Madgesty worked behind the counter at a Dunkin’ Donuts in Times Square. She was reportedly fired for squirting jelly on a customer.
James Brown: Pool Ball Racker
He was “the hardest-working man” even pre-show business! Brown grew up in Augusta, Ga., during the Great Depression, taking on several odd jobs to earn money, including shining shoes, washing cars, picking cotton and racking pool balls in local bars.
Gwen Stefani: Floor Scrubber
The Hollaback Girl’s very first job was mopping floors at a Dairy Queen near her home in Fullerton, Calif. She eventually left to work at a department store before joining her brother’s band, No Doubt.
Dorian Leigh, who combined pristine blue eyes, curling eyelashes, an arresting intelligence and intoxicating sexuality to become one of history’s most photographed models — perhaps the first to truly merit the adjective super — died Monday in Falls Church, Va. She was 91.
The death was announced by her grandson Thibaut Dubois.
Ms. Leigh graced seven Vogue covers in 1946, according to a New Yorker magazine article of the time, and in the next six years appeared on more than 50 more covers of various magazines, Playbill reported.
Her images in Revlon’s “Fire and Ice†nail polish and lipstick campaign in the 1950s — “For you who love to flirt with fire …who dare to skate on thin ice†— were shot by Richard Avedon and became Madison Avenue legend.
“Dorian was truly the best model of our time,†Eileen Ford, the doyenne of the modeling agency industry, said in an interview with The Roanoke Times in 1997. “She instinctively knew what every photographer wanted, and she came alive just at the moment the shutter clicked.â€
Cecil Beaton wrote in his book “Photobiography†(1951) that Ms. Leigh was as demanding as the eminent photographers who shot her, including Louise Dahl-Wolfe and Irving Penn.
He said she could convey many moods, including “the sweetness of an 18-century pastel, the allure of a Sargent portrait, of the poignancy of some unfortunate woman who sat for Modigliani.â€
Ms. Leigh’s mystique was enhanced by her many romances, which included five marriages — counting the one in Mexico to a Spanish marquis who turned out to be already married. There were also the many real or imagined affairs with famous writers, musicians and photographers, eagerly tabulated by gossip columnists. Ms. Leigh was definitely attractive, standing 5 feet 5 inches, with an hourglass figure and an alluring smile.

Whether it’s cockroaches or heights, spiders or flying – everyone has a fear, and if you thought that the phenomenon of phobias do not exist for celebrities, then you need to think twice.
With Scarlett Johansson it is the fear of cockroaches.
“I once knew a girl who actually had giant African cockroaches as pets, and she would play with them and fuss over them. She often tried to get me to touch one, but I wouldn’t. I told her I have been afraid of them ever since I once woke up with one crawling over my face, and another was in my shoe.”
Nicole Kidman is a lepidopterphobe – she is terrified of butterflies.
“I am not afraid of snakes or spiders — just butterflies. It all started when I was a child. Sometimes I would come home from school and the biggest butterfly you have ever seen would be fluttering on our front gate. Iâ€d climb over the fence rather than touch the gate, and crawl around to the side of the house to go in the back door.”
Jennifer Love Hewitt has revealed that she has a number of phobias, the worst of which is a fear of elevators.
“The trouble is that many of the Hollywood meetings I have to attend take place at the top of tall buildings — and I simply cannot set foot in a lift if there are too many people in it. If there’’s four of five people in it, then I just about manage it.
I prefer it when it’s empty so I can scream if I want to. I am also scared of sharks, which is why you will never find me in the sea, and I am a terrible hypochondriac. I have every illness known to man, and I am pretty sure I have had the bird flu four of five times. I know I drive people mad with my phobias.â€
Jennifer Aniston has been terrified of flying ever since she was caught in a bad storm in a small plane years ago.
“We became caught up in an electrical storm. And the Toronto to New York flight took two hours, which was twice the usual time.
Every time we flew over a field I hoped the pilot would decide to land, but he didn’t. What really scares me is the take-off. Iâ€ve heard all about the aerodynamics, the speed, the engine — but I still get nervous.”
Among the male celebrities who admit to having phobias is Johnny Depp, who revealed that he is not only afraid of singing in public, but also of clowns.
“I was forced to overcome my singing fear because of the movie Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. I warned director Tim Burton that I wasn’t very confident of my singing abilities.
I also have had an acute fear of clowns — a condition known as coulrophobia — ever since I had nightmares of them as a kid. I used to see their faces leering at me.â€
Soccer ace David Beckham suffers from ataxophobia – a fear of disorder or untidiness. We humans call that anal retentive.
He admits that everything has to match: his shirts are arranged in his wardrobe according to color, and he lines up cans of Coke in the fridge.
“Iâ€m very organized and controlled and need to go to bed at night knowing what Iâ€m going to wear the next morning.”
Recently two of the Internet’s loveliest personalities, Xeni Jardin of Boing Boing and sex columnist Violet Blue, had a very public row in the blogosphere when Jardin removed every reference to Blue from public view on her site, totaling around 70 posts.
As the New York Times notes, the fracas raised the issue of whether unpublishing posts on a popular blog (currently there are 1,600-plus comments on the decision) is something a blogger has a right to do.
We’ll, Playboy got a bit more excited when they saw old pics of the pair canoodling on Valleywag. Two sexy, smart, web-savvy women — they couldn’t think of anything hotter.
Playboy Asks: Who are some more of the blogosphere’s sexiest women?
Playboy scanned the web for some of the hottest female bloggers and video bloggers (or “vloggers”) from the worlds of finance, entertainment, tech and sex, and they want to know who your favorite is.
UPDATE (James):Â Apparently, Sarah Lacy is getting quite a bit of traffic out of the whole thing proving, as if anyone still doubted it, that sex sells.
I’ve had one of the biggest traffic days in months, post the whole Playboy mention. Of course, anyone coming here looking for sexy photos was probably disappointed to read about nothing but my book tour!
I’m a little surprised people have balked so much at the Playboy thing. Clearly, I would never consider actually posing nude and assume most of the girls on the list wouldn’t either. (No, TechCrunch commenters, not even for a lot of money. Seriously, what is wrong with men? Just because they’ll get naked at the drop of a hat they think it’s somehow irresistible?) But that’s not all Playboy is about either. Loads of politicians, celebrities, business people have been interviewed and featured in Playboy before, even if no one really reads it for the articles.
She is, incidentally, wearing clothing in all photos displayed on the site.
