A week ago at this time, the world assumed Crystal Harris would officially be Mrs. Hugh Hefner. Instead, the model dumped her fiancee on Tuesday and hung out in a VIP cabana at a pool party in Las Vegas. “I’m doing okay,” she told People . “I just had to get away. Today is the day and I just had to get away. I’m going back tonight so I just wanted to get away for the day.” Holly Madison, who always wanted to marry the Playboy mogul herself, is appalled at Crystal’s behavior. “That’s a new low,” Holly Tweeted of Harris’ partying. “That’s disgusting and whoever booked her is tacky.” But, hey, at least this ordeal has given Madison a reason to be in the news again. She ought to be thanking Crystal. [Photos: WENN.com]
Did a Shaquille O’Neal sex tape at one time exist? And did Robert Ross get beaten by kidnappers over its existence? Such questions are in the news these days because seven gang members were arrested this month and charged with robbing Ross – a music producer and a former acquaintance of the basketball star’s – over his alleged possession of a tape that depicted Shaq cheating on his then-wife, Shaunie. A rep for Shaunie now confirms she was offered the videotape. It supposedly depicts the NBA legend with another woman and was reportedly filmed at Ross’ house, via security camera, when Shaq and Shaunie were married. Through her rep, Shaunie says she never saw any footage, but claims she turned Ross’ offer down because she “wanted nothing to do with it.” She also denies ever having any romantic relationship with Ross and refers to him as a “liar.” In court last week, for a preliminary hearing involving the individuals accused of beating him, Ross said the tape was erased years ago.

Lindsay Lohan will soon be tried for grand theft. But you know who SHOULD be? Kamofle & Co. They marked that necklace up 300 percent! Highway robbery! The necklace piece Linds is accused of bogarting from Kamofie & Co. has been appraised at $850. Legally, this could actually be a significant sum. That price tag does not qualify for felony grand theft, which requires a value of $950 or more. Kamofie was trying to sell the necklace to Lindsay for $2,500. Lindsay’s lawyer, Shawn Holley, will argue the D.A. should only be allowed to charge her client with a misdemeanor, based on the true value of the necklace. But even if Holley loses that argument, Kamofie’s owner already lost. After all, everyone knows jewelers mark stuff up, but 300 percent? That’s going to be a PR problem. Not to mention her selling the surveillance video. It’s hard to make an ungrateful and unprofessional brat like LiLo look like a victim or a sympathetic figure, but they have. Well, almost.
