Sex (Tape) and The City star denies 'porn' claims, Winehouse's skin horror

12:50PM Wednesday March 19, 2008

It's the celebrity 'sex tape' scandal that's on everyone's lips.

Rumours surfaced yesterday that Sex and The city star Kristin Davis stars in her very own full-blown sex tape, along with a pack of provocative photos.

The said photos spread like wildfire across the internet, adding to speculation that the brunette in the video is Kristin Davis.

Well, not exactly.

Undeniably, the brunette in the said photo holds a remarkable resemblance to Davis.

However, celebrity news website TMZ now claims that there is in fact no sex tape, merely a collection of approximately 20 salacious photos that date back at least five years featuring what looks like Davis in several compromising positions.

TMZ claims the steamy pics were taken by an ex-boyfriend and are now being touted to media outlets by a broker from California.

The website claims the snaps were taken in 1992 by an ex-boyfriend who was allegedly furious with Davis over something or other and sold the incriminating piccies to a third party.

Predictably, Davis denies that she features in the pictures. This is not a photo of Kristin Davis, a rep for the actress told OK! There is no sex tape.

I've seen the said pictures, and I have to agree that the brunette does look like Davis. But it could be a case of some sex-starved techie geek getting carried away with Photoshop.

Tell you what, you decide. Click here and judge for yourselves.

This is the most sanitised version of the scandalous photo that I could find. Trust me, the unedited version leaves very little to the imagination.

Marketing ploy

And now for the bizarre twist...

The latest rumour is that the 'sex tape' scandal is anything but - it's merely a cheap publicity stunt concocted by the film company behind the upcoming release of the Sex and The City movie.

Either way, there's no denying that the media coverage surrounding this salacious scandal will help bring bums to seats when the SATC movie is released in May.

Stay tuned for developments...

Tempting fate

Ballsy broad Sharon Osbourne has revealed that having cancer is an experience that she would gladly repeat if she could live her life all over again.

The talent show judge and wife of Ozzy Osbourne successfully beat off bowel cancer in 2002.

During a family holiday in Sydney, Australia, Sharon told a radio station:

"If I was to map out my next life and the highs and lows I was to encounter, I'd leave cancer on the list.

"It taught me so much about myself, others and the world."

And that's when Sharon's new-found serenity and philosophy crashed. Proving that she's well capable of going from zero to bitch in five seconds, the gobby star wasted no time in slagging off Kiss legend Gene Simmons.

She ranted: "Gene's a prat. He's just a silly man in a silly wig.

"He's a right prat. What more is there to say about him? He's his own worst enemy by being in the public eye."

Don't sugar that pill, Sharon.

Bad judgement

Former party girl Lindsay Lohan has blamed bad judgment for her rehab stint last year.

"I think it was just situations that I was putting myself in, she told People. I was putting myself in the wrong situations and I didn't have the focus in the right place."

The star, who has been working on a dance-influenced album in recent weeks, admits that although she's on the right path now, she couldn't have made it without the support of her family and friends.

"My family has always been important to me, and they've always supported me, she said. I'm blessed to have a really wonderful family."

Let's hope this is sincerity talking, and not just some hyperbole she churned out to fill a few inches in a magazine.

The denial

Trash talk tabloid the News of the World sensationally reported this week that Madonna and Guy Richie's marriage is on the skids

The tabloid even claimed that Madge was about to head off to New York with her sprogs, and would make an official announcement about the split in 18 months.

Well, surprise, surprise, it turns out that the whole story was manufactured.

Madge's long-time rep has crawled out of the woodwork and claims that nothing could be further from the truth.

"I am delighted to confirm that Mr. and Mrs. Guy Ritchie remain happily married," Liz Rosenberg said in a statement yesterday.

Though they were in different countries recently - Madonna in the US doing promotion for her upcoming album Hard Candy and Guy finishing up post production on his new film RocknRolla.

All is well and wonderful in the Ritchie household, she noted.

Well she would say that wouldn't she...

Control freak Madge is hardly going to pipe up and confess that her loved-up union is about to hit the scrapheap is she?

Are we being Punk'd?

We've all read the reports about Britney Spears and Mel Gibson enjoying an intimate meal together at a Los Angeles restaurant for two hours last week.

Here's some video footage of the bizarre dinner date.

It's an unlikely union if you ask me. What on earth did they talk about over dinner? Cocktail recipes? A movie deal? Or is Mel simply showing off his benevolent side and trying to help the troubled lass?

Bear in mind that Mel has demonstrated a soft spot for Brit in the past:

"I feel compassion for someone like Britney. She never gets a moment....Your heart goes out to her because I'm positive that, at her core, she's a good woman."

The whole thing smacks of one of Ashton Kutcher's Punk'd pranks if you ask me.

Back off, mate

Brit Brit's faux manager, Sam Lufti, has agreed to extend the restraining order which prevents him from seeing his former cash cow.

You'll recall that Lutfi was told in no uncertain terms to buzz off off and leave Spears alone after her father filed a restraining order against him, believing he was a negative influence on his daughter.

A Los Angeles judge ordered Lutfi not to go within 250 yards (228 metres) of the singer.

The restraining order expired yesterday, and has reportedly been extended - with Spears' full co-operation.

Lutfi's spokesman Michael Sands said: There is an agreement between Sam Lutfi and the conservatorship for the next 30 days.

Both parties are happy and will continue to work together to further resolve any issues that may have come up in the past.

The cameo

News of Britney's highly-publicised cameo role on CBS TV series How I Met Your Mother has caused quite a stir over the past week.

You've seen the piccies, now see a video clip of her performance.

Word had it that Spears' role involved her playing a dim-witted blonde with a penchant for sex and shopping - quite a stretch for her, obviously.

Hurricane Britney's first scripted words in the show are:

"Can we have sex and then go shopping?"

I'm saying nothing.

Video clip here.

Kerching, kerching!

So moneybags Heather Mills got some of what she wanted from her divorce settlement.

Check out this vintage shot of Mucca staring 'adoringly' into former flame Sir Paul McCartney's eyes.

I've no idea when it was taken, but her steely glare is enough to convince me that she was probably rubbing her claws with glee and masterminding a plan for how to run away with Macca's millions even then...

Hail Mary for Swayze

Maybe miracles aren't just the preserve of silver screen fantasies after all...

Cancer-stricken Patrick Swayze has reportedly been approached by a group of British surgeons to undergo a potentially life-saving procedure.

Swayze might be smoking his way through the horror of it all, but doctors at London's Royal Free Hospital think he's an ideal candidate for a groundbreaking medical technique that could save his life from pancreatic cancer.

The said technique is said to involve (enjoy your lunch) reworking a patient's veins - most of which involves cutting away the tumour along with the portal vein - a major vessel in the pancreas - and replacing it with the jugular vein from the neck.

Where there's life and will, there's hope.

Twitter twits

I think we all need to get out more.

This is why.

Ego search

Colin Farrell has way too much time on his hands...

Gone are the hedonistic antics that helped turn the Irish actor into the image of a hard-drinking, promiscuous leprechaun.

The actor reportedly likes nothing better these days than to sit at home with his pipe and slippers and indulge in a jolly good surf on the net - Google searching for gossip about himself mainly.

Talk about dull.

"I'm ashamed to admit it but I was bored the other day and I looked up my name on Google. Who am I kidding; I do it all the time!

"For Alexander I read every review I could get my hands on and I would say they were 80 to 90 per cent negative. Like, so personally insulting. But I read them all, and even started writing them in my head".

Hey, Google this, you lusty leprechaun: Colin Farrell + egomaniac

Gaydar goddess

Big-boobie Dolly Parton says she can sniff out a gay man at ten paces.

And it's all down to her mesmerising boobs apparently.

When I talk to a man, I can always tell what he's thinking by where he is looking, Dolly, 62, tells the Daily Record.

If he is looking at my eyes, he is looking for intelligence. If he is looking at my mouth, he is looking for wisdom.

But if he is looking anywhere else except my chest he's looking for another man.

This is not good...

Remember how I reported to you last week that some 'exorcist' from the US was gunning for Amy Winehouse because he believes she's plagued by demons?

Well, there might just be a grain of truth to the rev's belief that Wino's in league with the devil.

Check out these recent pictures of Wino as she trots about London town doing her best Linda Blair impersonation.

Her reps still maintain that Wino's suffering from impetigo - a skin infection caused by bacteria.

Then there's the theory that Wino's scabs are self-inflicted, and that she stubbed out a cigarette on her cheek. I'm not kidding.

Judging by the blistered state of Wino's visage, I'd say the toxic devilry within is finally manifesting itself.

Demon be gone!
