Despite the fact that not many of you voted for Carolina Ardohain in the 1978 post of our 30 years of sexy ladies I am still quite smitten with the lovely lass from Argentina. These photos of her on the beach selling a soft drink to the masses have done nothing to quench my thirst for even more of the lady known as “Pampita”. (Like how I tied that together there? I am such a wordsmith.)
The power of the people could apparently push John Mellencamp to kick his cigarette habit.
John Mellencamp’s 14-year-old son Speck has started a campaign using a Facebook group that states: “I made a deal with my dad that if I get a 1,000,000 to join this group he will quit smoking.”
The group grew by the thousands yesterday, with more than 13,000 members by the evening. Many Facebook members posted encouragingSource: Celebrity Mound RSS Feed
What’s wrong with you Brits that you don’t fancy divas from this side of the pond? Rihanna’s Rated-R and Mariah Carey’s Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel are certified flops in the UK, entering the charts at a lowly #16 and #23, respectively (well, not so respectively). Looks like those X-Factor appearances didn’t do a damn thing for either singer’s album (and somewhat to our surprise, Mariah’s seam-popping decolletage didn’t add any chart buoyancy.)
So what do British people like?
Their own reality show stars, of course. Britain’s Got Talent’s Susan Boyle is sitting pretty in the top spot, while X-Factor boy band JLS is #2. Apparently the exception to this is the Black Eyed Peas, holding the #3 spot for the moment and perhaps readying to kick these TV show singers to the curb in the next few weeks.
To be fair to you Brits, we don’t seem to like ‘em much either—MC’s Memoirs peaked only at #3 on the Billboard 200 before a fairly rapid descent on the chart, and Rihanna’s album is projected to flop here, too.
Not one to contemplate failure as an option, Carey’s going right back to work: amid rumors about her leaving Def Jam, Mariah’s prepping a remix album of Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. Her manager Chris Lighty Tweeted the news, adding that they’re working on a Target exclusive.
Is there a point in making a bunch of remixes for an album nobody listened to? Or do the powers that be think fiddling around with the tracks and appealing directly to the club scene will woo MC’s fans back into her arms? Good luck, Mimi. In case it doesn’t work out, you can always fall back on your award-winning acting career.
As for Rihanna, the message is pretty clear: given that the ratings for her 20/20 interview were sky high, it seems the American audience, at least, is more interested in listening to her depressing personal life than her depressing music. Drag. But probably nothing that a bona fide hit can’t fix. We’ll have to wait and see if any of Rated-R’s singles can get anywhere near “Umbrella”-like success.

Good morning!
Leave it to Beth Ditto to plug other lesbians in The New York Times. As this Sunday's featured Playlist interviewee, the singer shared one of her favorite new bands, Explode into Colors and said she knew them from around Portland. "It’s like six degrees of lesbianation," Ditto said of her home city. "There’s so much overlap." Portland and everywhere else, B. Ditty.
Explode Into Colors, Playing Six degrees of Lesbianation
We're not the only ones hoping for Gretchen and Claire to get together on Heroes. TheFrisky.com listed the Heroes roomies as one of the couples they'd like to see hook up. I'm already thinking of their couple name: Graire? Cletchen? Sweeps lesbian kiss that will likely lead nowhere? That's a little long.

R&B singer Keyshia Cole and her man Daniel “Boobie” Gibson of the Cleveland Cavaliers gave away turkeys and groceries to needy families at Bethany Baptist Church in Cleveland a couple of weeks ago. Now, that’s all fine and dandy, but homegirl’s belly definitely looks a bit rounder than usual … and she has been spending a lot of time in Cleveland lately. And let’s not forget how she’s been MIA these past few months, which makes everything add up to her being pregnant. Why else would she be hiding?
We’d also like to throw in this little gem we grabbed from our homie Necole Bitchie, which basically confirms it all.
“Necole, I am from Cleve and was at that event as a volunteer for one of the companies giving away food. And she is def pregnant. They were instructing people to shoot the upper body only. I saw it with my own 2 eyes. This event was in the Steeleyard Commons. And a guy that works in the Beachwood mall told us he had seen her in the LV store and she was big. And that was prior to me seeing her myself.” -viaSource: Gossip on This RSS Feed
Tiger Woods is busy recovering from injuries he sustained when his Cadillac Escalade made an unfortunate merger with a tree and a fire hydrant outside the athlete’s Florida home Friday morning. But the golfer may have an even tougher time reclaiming his squeaky-clean public image, thanks to rumors that he’s been hamming it up with alleged Buss It Baby Rachel Uchitel?

Tiger married Swedish model Elin Nordegren, now 29, in October 2004. Their daughter, Sam, was born in June 2007, and the young family just welcomed a son, Charlie, last February. But word on the Snitch Circuit claims the athletic ace has become embroiled in a cheating scandal — with a New York City party girl with a reputation for bedding married celebs at its center.
Tiger first met Rachel, 32, when she was working as an event planner and the director of VIP Operations for the Big Apple hotspot Griffin, Ashley Sampson, a friend of Rachel, reveals in the Dec. 7 of Star Magazine. Woods first flirted with Rachel by offering to show her a “good golf grip.”
“In June, she told me, ‘Tiger Woods is blowing up my phone messages!’” Ashley divulged. “Tiger thinks Rachel is staying quiet about their affair, but she told everyone. She told me, ‘I’m having an affair with Tiger Woods. We’re in love!’ I’ve heard him while she was talking to him on the phone and I recognized the voice,” Ashley added. “I said, ‘Rachel, he’ married,’ and she said Big (bleeping) deal! It’s Tiger Woods. I don’t care about his wife! we’re in love!’”
Rachel’s no stranger to cavalier dalliances with big names stars: The brunette was exposed as the Other Woman in a liaison with Bones star David Boreanaz during his wife Jamie’s recent pregnancy, Star Magazine snitched only weeks ago.
Although they’ve hooked up for tony trysts in secret locations — including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and even Australia — it’s sexy text messages that Tiger, 33, can’t get enough of, Rachel blabs to pals.
“We have sex text,” the mistress chuckled in a clandestine chat with friends earler this month. “He’d ask Rachel things like, ‘What are you wearing? What do you want to do to me? What do you want me to do to you?’” says confidante-turned-informant Ashley. “She even read me text messages that Tiger sent her that said, ‘I miss you so much! I love you.’”
Rachel also bragged to friends that Tiger has promised to serve Elin with divorce papers as a first step towards building a life with her. A second tabloid source adds: “I know for a fact that Tiger and Rachel got together for four days in Los Angeles. She talks about their affair all the time. She thinks Tiger is going to leave his wife and marry her…..”
