Erin Andrews Confronts Kid Over Peephole Video Comment (VIDEO)

If you’re trying to get Erin Andrews’ autograph, it’s probably not a good idea to mention the peephole video. That is exactly what happened at the NCAA College World Series when a couple of fans kept calling out for Andrews to sign an autograph. After spending a few minutes calling her name and trying to grab the ESPN reporter’s attention, one of the kids shouted, “I’m gonna watch your video tomorrow.” That didn’t sit well with Andrews, who immediately looked over to the fans and stared them down. She walked over to the stands and confronted the fan. She asked him to repeat himself, but he refused. “If you are going to be cool enough to say that, man up to it,” she said. In the summer of 2009, Andrews was secretly videotaped while she was naked in her hotel room. The video was posted on the internet by a man named Michael David Barrett. Barrett, 49, admitted to stalking Andrews for 18 months and was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in federal prison. Scroll down to watch the video. WATCH:

Hollywood Celebrities Perform Fake PSA Encouraging Casual Sex Facebook Status

It’s no secret that Hollywood and its ‘values’ are contributing mightily to the moral decay of American culture, and 2011 romantic comedies have been some of the raunchiest to date. But the stars of the summer 2011 sleazy hookup film “Friends with Benefits” have involved Facebook in promoting their flick. Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis star in “Friends with Benefits,” a movie that glorifies a casual and strictly sexual relationship among friends with no emotional strings attached. Kunis and Timberlake have taken to dramatically mocking Public Service Announcements by participating in a 60 second video asking viewers to “support a friends with benefits status option,” to appear alongside the traditional statuses of single, engaged, married, etc. The actors, dressed conservatively and against a plain backdrop, donned stoic faces and pleaded with viewers and Facebook users to talk about a “very serious issue.” “Social networks are failing to meet the needs of an underserved population,” Timberlake said, while a tragic piano solo played in the background. “Why are we denying a voice to those who are in a casual, sexual relationship with a friend!?” Kunis rhetorically wondered. “But now there’s hope. A growing movement of people, united. So donate your status today for this very, very important cause,” she continued. “Just remember, every click counts,” Kunis dramatically implored. The video ended with Timberlake, facing Kunis, casually dropping to his knees to perform, what viewers can only infer, is oral sex on his costar. Perhaps not surprisingly, Timberlake and Kunis have taken to performing their on-screen groping during live television. At the MTV Movie Awards on June 5, 2011, the pair casually grabbed each other's genitals as they presented the first golden popcorn award. But inappropriately touching a woman’s chest on stage is not new for Timberlake. He shocked the nation when he exposed Janet Jackson’s nipple during the 2004 Super bowl halftime show in an incident that became known as “Nipplegate.” Timberlake’s movie is only one in a string of lewd “romantic comedies” about the hookup culture to hit theaters this year. Tinseltown gave us “No Strings Attached” and “Love and Other Drugs,” two movies that purport the same f**k buddies theme as “Friends with Benefits.” “Hall Pass,” released in February, followed the adventures of a few white, suburban, middle-aged husbands given a “pass” by their wives to do whatever and whomever they wanted for one week, consequence-free. As one might expect, the men spent their week chasing skirts and partying like frat boys.

Sen. Paul Calls TSA Official ‘Clueless’

Alcee Hastings Sexual Harassment Allegation Investigated By Ethics Panel

A congressional ethics panel is looking into claims that Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-Fla.) sexually harassed one of his staff members, the Wall Street Journal reports. The investigation comes on the heels of a lawsuit filed by Winsome Packer alleging Hastings made repeated unwanted sexual advances and threatened her job when she refused him. Packer is being represented by the conservative legal group Judicial Watch. Hastings called the claims “ludicrous.” “I have never sexually harassed anyone,” the representative said in a statement sent to the AP. “In fact, I am insulted that these ludicrous allegations are being made against me… I will win this lawsuit.” Hastings gave a more vague response in a recent interview, according to the Journal. “Quite frankly your source has as much or more information than I do and I would suggest you rely upon them,” he said. “It would be impossible for me in a paragraph or a page or two or a tome or volumes one and two to help you understand the dynamics of these events. I’ll leave it at that.” News of the investigation comes a week after former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) resigned following a scandal that erupted after he tweeted a lewd photo of himself. In April, Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.) resigned in the midst of an ethics probe looking into whether he made efforts to cover up an affair with a former staffer. A Senate ethics panel found that Ensign lied to the Federal Election Commission and violated campaign finance laws.

Doug Hutchison, 51-Year-Old ‘The Green Mile’ Actor, Weds 16-Year-Old Country Singer Courtney Stodden

Talk about a strange couple. E! Online reports that actor Doug Hutchison of ‘The Green Mile’ and ‘Lost’ has married country singer Courtney Stodden in Las Vegas. This may not seem out of the ordinary until you consider that Hutchison is 51, while Stodden is a mere 16-years-old. The couple provided a statement to E!: “We’re aware that our vast age difference is extremely controversial,” the couple said through their spokeswoman. “But we’re very much in love and want to get the message out there that true love can be ageless.” PopEater reports that Stodden likely had permission from at least one of her parents: According to the Clark County, Nevada Marriage Bureau, both marriage license applicants must be at least 18 years of age. But minors (below the age of 18) are able to obtain a license with the consent of a parent or legal guardian — reasoning that at least one of Stodden’s parents approves of their daughter’s May-December marriage. In fact, RadarOnline posted a statement from Stodden’s father expressing support for the union: “Courtney is one of the most level headed girls out there and I’m not just saying that because she’s my daughter. Doug is the nicest man I’ve ever met in my life,” Alex said of his 51-year-old son-in-law, who tied the knot with his daughter in Vegas on May 20. Celebuzz has more information about Hutchison’s new bride, as well as some photos and even one of her music videos. So is this whole situation real? Fake? Or just plain gross? Let us know what you think in the comments.
