Damien Hirst, a British artist has purchased a portrait of Paris Hilton made up from images taken out of pornographic magazines.
The collage - entitled Paris, 2008 - was the work of Jonathan Yeo, the son of former Conservative minister Tim.
Yeo’s use of adult magazines began in 2004 after the White House canceled a commission to paint President George Bush.
In other news Hilton appeared on The View yesterday and had an awkward moment with Joy Behar when she was asked if she can vote.
“You’re not going to be able to vote, are you?” Joy asked Paris pointedly. “I have a friend who was in the slammer, he can’t vote. Weren’t you in jail?”
“I can vote,” Paris responded, laughing comfortably.
The other ladies of “The View” tried to ease the situation, explaining to Joy that losing the right to vote only applied to people convicted of a felony.
“What was your thing? Yours was a misdemeanor or something?” Behar asked.
“No, it was driving with a suspended license,” Paris answered.
“You can still vote with that? ” Joy quipped.
Putting an end to the awkwardness, Whoopi chimed in saying, “Yeah, you’re still an American, yeah.”
I find it funny that when the topic turns away from Paris she doesn’t say anything or offer her opinion.
Some former child stars choose to announce their move to more adult fare in a shocking way. Drew Barrymoreposed nude in Playboy. Fred Savage played a babbling junkie in The Rules of Attraction.
Last year the 22-year-old actress sure made a huge splash with that brutally hilarious scene in the premiere episode of the Showtime hit Californication, and now says she can understand why it might be a tad shocking for her long-time fans, who have seen her on TV and in films since the age of 8.
“I have the naked scene, it’s like ‘Oh it’s the little girl from The Hand That Rocks the Cradle or The Nanny and she’s f**king and punching on that show.”
Oh my, the language!
And as for what fans can expect when the raunchy show returns for a second season in September, Madeline says,
“More of the same… Midway through, there’s some really funny stuff that happens, which is outrageous even for Californication.”
While she won’t divulge details Madeline did reveal that one episode in particular had the cast really excited. I bet.
“When everyone on set read this one script, they were like ‘Holy hell this is so funny!’”
The Secret Life of The Veronicas has been exposed - literally - after raunchy pictures of a woman believed to be one of the pop twins were splashed over an international porn site.
In a controversial scenario reminiscent of the recent sex scandals which soiled the reputations of US teen queens Vanessa Hudgens and Miley Cyrus, steamy shots of Jess Origliasso have been posted on porn weblog Fleshbot.com.
Cementing her status as the wilder of the two siblings, Jess - identified by her distinctive tattoo on her bare upper back - is pictured with a suggestive expression in the sepia-toned image.
While entertainment industry insiders were yesterday buzzing about the singer’s latest shock rock’n'roll antics, a spokeswoman for The Veronicas stopped short of confirming the secondary topless shot was actually the Origliasso twin.
“The portrait photograph of the girl looking at the camera is obviously Jess but, although the photos appear to have similarities in style and setting, I’m confident that the girl in the topless photograph is not her,” the Warner Music publicist told Confidential.
Doctored or not, the saucy shots were still a hit on the site, receiving more than 11,000 hits since being posted by an unknown user.
The photographer is reportedly shopping the tape as we speak, which shows footage of A-Rod and Madonna shacking up in their secret apartment. Yeah, I’m not totally buying that either.
The footage was supposedly shot two months ago and the apartment is owned by one of Madonna’s Kabbalah friends.
If the video does exist, the camera man will most likely go to jail since he did not have the apartment owner’s permission to install a camera in the house. He would face charges of burglary and voyeurism.
According to the publication, Madonna’s lawyers said they were “aware” of the photographer’s claims but had no further comments.
What others said:
Dlisted says, “SICK! That shit would be like watching two pit bulls fighting over a greasy neck bone.”
The Evil Beat says, “Madonna’s reps are refusing to comment, probably because such a bullshit story doesn’t warrant a comment.”
Celebslam says, “The fact that Madonna has a sex tape isn’t shocking. The fact that she has a sex tape that doesn’t involve animals, the entire Oakland Raiders football team, and a gynecologist’s chair is.”
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.
Avril Lavigne sex tape…eh…why not! Lavigne has possibly joined the celebrity sex tape for press train.
It is really more like a sex clip. For less than a minutes a chick with Avril-like extensions has sex with a man while listening to her song “Don’t Tell Me.”
I am not sure what logic this is to assume that because she resembles the body type of Avril and is listening to one of her own songs, that she must be the bitchy Lavigne.
Besides who listens to their own music while humping? That is what is weird about this.
Madonna is done sucking the youth and life force of Justin Timberlake and is now moving back to Britney Spears. She and Brit Brit will be combining their super powers for Madge’s Sticky and Sweet tour. New details from the collaboration are popping up daily.
“Apparently a hooded Spears can be seen inside an elevator, where she is pacing back and forth - kicking and punching the walls, like a wild beast. When Madonna asks who the figure is, Britney removes the hood to deliver her catchphrase, “It’s Britney bitch”.”
“The footage, which will include the pair gyrating against each other, will be screened to fans on Madonna’s Sticky and Sweet world tour via giant video screens.”
To add to Madonna’s classical style of shock factor and sex, details of a nude scene have emerged. They participate in some bondage play and dry humping, all of which will be shown on the giant screens during the concerts.
“Britney and Madonna are unwrapped like mummies, to appear together almost naked apart from tiny leather bondage pants and knee-high boots. They then dance closely together, pressing their hands and bodies together. There will be big rows over whether it is sexy, shocking or both.”
The last time they did a video together it was pretty mundane. (Remember the dullness of Me Against the Music?)
The goal is to trump their lesbian tongue kiss circa the 2003 MTV Awards. I think that by today’s standards a lesbian kiss on tv is very soap opera. Short of a donkey, a blow dryer and large amounts of Jell-o nothing they do would surprise me.
Pornography is very popular these days with the American working class (Woo! Stimulus checks!).
But that does not make it FCC approved. And it certainly is not an acceptable mixer with children’s rugby in New Zealand. But that’s what parents and fans of the kid’s sport were treated to while watching a live broadcast of “Grassroots Rugby” on the New Zealand television channel Prime.
A spokesman for Prime Television on Monday blamed a mixup in “distribution processes” for the error which inserted the hardcore segment in the regular program “Grassroots Rugby.”
The segment was intended to air on an adult pay-per-view channel.
Yeah, so, um, whoops? On the bright side of things, at least it puts the whole Janet Jackson - Nipplegate thing in perspective. Because, apparently, this was not just a little side boob getting flashed, it was the full hardcore pornography.
The downside is parents are going to complain and steer their kids away from your station. The upshot, though, is that by combining kids’ sports and porn, Prime has corned the market on the coveted “creepjob” demographic.
And now the totally work safe video (sorry…) of the not so thrilled parents being interviewed.
