OK. So you already know the deal with Dave Letterman. If not, please check out this: Details Of The David Letterman Sex Extortion Case
And this: Letterman Blackmailed For Revenge? Diary Tells All
… for the recap.
It's some heavy dope, mang. We'll probably never know the full extent of what went on because Letterman is such a private dude, but we can likely assume that a few of these allegations are factual and actual. And guess what? I'm really having a hard time seeing the overwhelming wrong in all of this.

Scotsman gets community service for setting up fake dating profiles for former friend.
It looks like a certain Scotsman did not take the time to check out our Top Ten Rules Of Facebook Etiquette and draw general life lessons from it (while we're talking Facebook, check out our Facebook Manners And You, because Ashton Kutcher thinks it rocks).
Per the BBC, Allan Troup (the Scot in question) decided to play a little prank on a friend, confidante, customer and business associate Kenneth McEwan using fake dating site profiles.
Here's the thing, they started out friends, it was cool but it was all pretend (yeah yeah). Allan Troup retained (what's your … Read More
Nevada Senator John Ensign admits to affair, vacates leadership position.
Something's stinkin' in the party of Lincoln. The Republican Party, long the rhetorical home of family values, suffered another moral (and morale) setback this week. These shenanigans involve Senator John Ensign from Nevada and a bit of hanky-panky.
John Ensign, in his eighth year in the Senate, had an affair with Cynthia Hampton. The fooling around ended 10 months ago (roughly August 2008). Mrs. Hampton and her husband, Douglas Hampton, worked on Ensign's staff as a treasurer and senior aide, respectively.
The Washington Post (always on the job) is investigating whether or not the admission of the affair has … Read More
Inexplicably, sometimes gold diggers resort to blackmail.
There's a pleasant little story from the gang over at Gawker regarding the inevitable consequences of more or less paying for sex.
The story goes something like this: rich guy (Dupont heir Stephen Dent) uses sugar daddy website for philandering, rich guy puts himself in compromising position (vis-à-vis his philandering), nefarious party extorts rich guy, long arm of the law eventually catches nefarious party: repeat until family, friends and coworkers are thoroughly embarrassed.
The New York Post (who really seems to love this puerile stuff, with the muckraking of the mighty and whatnot) goes on to say … Read More
Is the tennis great being blackmailed by her ex?
Yikers. It looks like Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert have another thing in common: messy breakups. Per Wowowow, the tennis star's former lady, Toni Layton, is not going softly into that good night. She's kicking and screaming and could make things ugly for Martina Navratilova.
Layton and Navratilova dated for eight years and when it came time to split, Navratilova offered Layton $200,000 for her troubles. This was, apparently, a slap right in the kisser. Layton's lawyer says, "Layton was offered a measly, flat $200,000 for eight long years of 24/7 work and support for … Read More
Swiss Gigolo Helg Sgarbi bilked European women for millions.
Not sure if you saw this story earlier this but the Huffington Post (really worth checking out the details there) is reporting that a fraud story even more sensational than Bernie Madoff has come to a head this week.
What can possibly be more sensational than ripping off 50 billion greenbacks*? Um, how about BMWs? And gigolos? And sex tapes? And possibly Nazis? Sounds like a job for Jason Statham, right? Nah, brah. A 'Swiss Gigolo' has been traipsing around Europe, swindling money from rich broads at every turn. The gigolo in question is a … Read More
Between dowry and extortion, a thin line exists.
The Daily Telegraph is reporting that an Indian fellow is requesting more dowry from his wife's family. It appears that the $10,000 that his family received in jewelry was not quite. Something like $200,000 would really put his heart at ease and really give their marriage a chance for success. In order to make that happen, he surreptitiously filmed his wife having sex (presumably with him, but there's no guarantee). He then wanted to exchange that recording for the $200,000 in dowry. Or he'll do something with that sex tape. Like post it on the interweb? Sell … Read More
