Woman Auctions Off Virginity to Pay For School

A 21-year-old woman named “Tamara” from San Felipe, Chile is selling her virginity to the highest bidder for a good cause – to pay for higher education. The woman recently posted the offer on Aconcagua VIP, a Chilean escort site, claiming that she needed the money to pay off her university debt. “Hi, I’m Tamara, I’m 21 years old and I’m selling my virginity because I have a big debt with the school and my family can’t pay for it,” the ad reads. “I need money. If not, I wouldn’t do this .” The ad included six pictures of Tamara seductively posing in her underwear, as well as some rules and guidelines for her many prospective buyers. She said she requires the winner to use protection and will only accept offers from individual men – to couples, lesbians, groups or men with fetishes. Not surprisingly, the advertisement has generated a slew of reactions since it went viral, ranging from supportive to surprised to strongly opposing. Tamara is not the first woman to auction off her virginity. There was Natalie Dylan right here in the U.S., and there have been others abroad as well. In September, Brazil resident Catarina Migliorini, 20, announced she was selling her purity in an auction starting at $155,000 in order to donate to charity. Catarina ended up achieving her goal and then some after a Japanese man warded off the competition by offering her a staggering $780,000. Congratulations?

Ali Lohan, Model: Youngster Speaks on Career, Troubled Sister

In a new interview, 19-year-old aspiring model Ali Lohan (short for Aliana) speaks out about her own career prospects, and also her maligned older sibling. The younger Lohan, who recently signed on with Wilhelmina Models and posed for Elle Korea, says “I would like to be known as my own person.” “I don’t need to ride on any coattails. I just want to make my mark myself.” The coattails of Lindsay Lohan are definitely not worth riding on these days, but regardless, she adds, “I definitely have to prove myself in my career.” Ali Lohan only had glowing words to say about her family, calling big sis LiLo, 26, a “good roommate,” and her mother, Dina Lohan “the best mom ever.” Clearly she has a lot to learn, but she’s only 19. Other excerpts from her WWD interview … On Lindsay’s advice: “She’s awesome. She just says the main thing is to do your best and to do what you love. We’re very close and speak very often.” On learning from Lindsay’s fame: “I just want to make the most out of the word ‘fame.’ I want to do good things with my fame, or whatever it is.” “I want to do charity work. There’s something going on in Chile right now with the water, so I think I’m going to down there in a month to help out.” “My grandfather worked with charities his whole entire life, and we grew up living with him. He always told me about the world and everything that’s going on.” On the ups and downs being a Lohan: “We’re just like any other family. We’re close, we love each other and we have arguments like any other family.” “At the end of the day, I only trust my family. I feel that so many things have happened, but at the end of the day, they’re always going to be there for you.

ChitChatter: DJ Jazzy Jeff Talks Music, Will Smith And Says “DJs Are Better In Bed Than Rappers”

Check out the interview below to get the deets: Bossip:So what does the winner get? Jazzy Jeff: If I’m not mistaken the winner of regional gets $10,000 – the winner of national gets $50,000 and the winner of the world gets $150,000 – $200,000. Bossip: Is this the first stage of the competition? Jazzy Jeff: All of the djs of the surrounding areas came tonight to battle to win the title of the United States. Bossip: Who is judging tonight? Dj Jazzy Jeff: Me, A-Trak, and Z-Trip, we judge regionals and finals. Bossip: Do you have a dj that is hands down your favorite and you think that they will win? Dj Jazzy Jeff: No-way last year there was a dj from Chile in the world finals, he is probably one of the best djs I have ever heard in my life.

See One Blockbuster Store’s Sad, Final F— You to Netflix

” Screw Netflix !!!!!!” ” Don’t be stupid !!!!!!” And with one final missive taped to the shelf between copies of Syriana and Shoot ‘Em Up , another doomed Blockbuster store fell to the tyranny of Netflix ‘s superior business model. Might as well screw Netflix with three months’ free rental, eh Blockbuster loyalists? (What about those Redbox bastards, with their $1.20 rentals?) All is not lost, indeed. [ Reddit via Movies.com ]

Titanic and 9 Other Movies Some Folks Don’t Know Are Based on Real Events

James Cameron ’s Titanic is a stunningly realistic portrayal of a sinking ship , but apparently it just got more real for at least a handful of people. According to some tweets that are making the rounds, some younger Americans had no idea until now that the “unsinkable” cruise liner existed and did in fact hit an iceberg and sink in the Atlantic 100 years ago. What? They didn’t watch Downton Abbey and put two and two together either? (Note: Just like the deceased would-be heirs of Downton, Jack and Rose are fictional. Though something tells us many of the Titanic’s passengers probably had acting abilities comparable to Billy Zane’s.) Instead of ridiculing these youths for being ignorant of a fairly remarkable historic event and complaining about Idiocracy becoming more factual each day, let’s turn this into a teaching moment. Here are nine other films that depict a very real thing that happened in human history: Pearl Harbor In case the reference didn’t register at the time, there was a real Day of Infamy behind those insipid comments on Twitter a year ago about the Japanese earthquake and tsunami being payback for Pearl Harbor. Those jerks weren’t talking about the Ben Affleck movie, but a real military strike that happened. The movie that tells the sobering story of the naval base attack in 1941, in which 2,402 Americans were killed, was directed by Michael Bay (which seems like a joke but is true). Apollo 13 The three-man crew on the Apollo 13 mission really did spend four bleak days in their spacecraft after an oxygen tank exploded on the service module. What had been planned as the third manned moon landing instead became a harrowing effort to make it back to Earth safely. The drama captivated the nation on television in 1970, a time before the Internet. The Perfect Storm Before George Clooney and his perfectly disheveled beard hairs set sail in 2000, the dangerous storm that swept away the Andrea Gail fishing vessel really occurred, serving as the basis for the ill-fated film of the same name. Some of the facts in the movie have been disputed, but the 1991 nor’easter/hurricane did in fact collide in what many referred to as “the perfect storm.” The Killing Fields The mass killings by the Khmer Rouge in the mid- to late 1970s might be difficult for even Cambodian youths to fathom, but the story of journalists Dith Pran and Sydney Schanberg was very real. The two were covering the fall of the capital to the regime, and at the time, many journalists managed to flee. Pran was stranded but ended up escaping the death camps. He coined the phrase “killing fields,” the mass grave sites of which there are a mind-boggling 20,000. Alive A chartered flight really did crash in the Andes in 1972, and survivors stayed alive by eating the flesh of dead passengers. Sixteen of them were rescued two months later when Uruguayans Nando Parrado (played in the film by Ethan Hawke) and Roberto Canessa climbed through the mountains for 10 days to seek help. All the President’s Men Wondering where the “-gate” suffix originated? Decades before Weinergate, a little scandal called Watergate happened, and journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein were there to reveal the truth behind the wrongdoing and President Nixon’s involvement in it. The film is an adaptation of the reporters’ book, which was based on their investigative reporting in an era before “truthiness.” Silkwood Another pop culture reference is about to make sense to many: A “Silkwood shower” isn’t just something germophobes want to take after they get off the subway. It’s a term derived from a scene in which plutonium plant worker Karen Silkwood (Meryl Streep) is, horrifically, contaminated with radiation. Silkwood really did die mysteriously as she planned to reveal wrongdoing at the plant in the mid-’70s. GoodFellas Based on the book Wiseguy by Nicholas Pileggi, GoodFellas recounts the dirty deeds of Henry Hill and Co. Hill, who became an FBI informant, was a member of the Lucchese crime family and was involved in the also-real Lufthansa heist, among other crimes. Hill’s still out there somewhere, being forced to eat “egg noodles and ketchup” instead of spaghetti with marinara. United 93 After terrorists hijacked United Flight 93 on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, passengers and crew learned of the strikes on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Those aboard refused to let the plane hit its intended target, likely a government building in Washington, D.C., and planned to storm the cockpit. Some liberties were taken regarding whether they successfully entered the cockpit, but unless you believe conspiracy theorists, the plane did crash in a field in Pennsylvania.

Short Circuit Director Makes Awesome Case For Unwanted Remake

“’The thing that makes it so relevant is that we live in this age of robots, particularly when it comes to war,’ [Tim] Hill, also a longtime writer on the television series SpongeBob SquarePants , told 24 Frames. ‘We have drones that do our fighting for us, do all these jobs men and women don’t want to do. And that’s what makes this so interesting — things like this moment in the story when Johnny realizes he’s going to be disassembled and contemplates death, and whether it’s right to terminate someone else.’ He paused. ‘These are heavy themes for a family movie,’ he said, anticipating a reasonable reader’s reaction. ‘But I think they can have their place.'” Of course.
