Chantel Jeffries Receives Lucrative Offer from NYC Strip Club

It pays to sit alongside Justin Bieber when he gets arrested. Literally, for Chantel Jeffries . If she so chooses, that is. The model was a passenger in Bieber’s yellow Lamborghini last Thursday when it got pulled over by police around 4 a.m. because the artist was allegedly involved in a drag race. 9 Flirty Photos of Chantel Jeffries Open Slideshow 1. Chantel Jeffries Pictures Chantel Jeffries is a model who made news for being in the car with Justin Bieber at the time of his arrest. Check out some photos here. View As List 1.

Chantel Jeffries Picture Chantel Jeffries shows off some cleavage here on Instagram. No wonder Justin Bieber wanted to take her home prior to his arrest in Miami! 8. Chantel Jeffries Pic No, this is not a photo of Kim Kardashian. It’s a shot of Chantel Jeffries. But we can see where you’d make the mistake! Interest over Jeffries has piqued since then and a famous strip club in New York City is now trying to take advantage of that fact. According to TMZ, the establishment has offered Jeffries $25,000 to host a few Web cam events. She would essentially serve as a middle woman between strippers getting naked and the men who wish to ogle them, with sources saying Chantel is NOT being asked to reveal her birthday suit. Should Jeffries accept this offer to act as a quasi, online Madam? Look at it this way: Bieber is accused of 20K in damages to his neighbor’s home, via an egg attack earlier this month. Chantel can make this bank, pay off the neighbor and really get on Justin’s good side. And speaking of good sides… did you toggle through the slideshow above? Bieber sure knows how to pick even more plastic versions of Kim Kardashian em.

Jay Mohr Calls Alyssa Milano Fat, Actress Reacts on Twitter

Jay Mohr is under fire after making a recent crack at Alyssa Milano’s expense, and while she took the high road in response, she was far from happy. Mohr reportedly scrutinized the Mistresses star during a recent radio interview after the two attended the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards gala. “She was one of the presenters,” he said. “She’s very tiny, in height.” “It seems like she had a baby and said, ‘I don’t really give a s–t’ … I read it on her gut. Somebody sat in the director’s chair and was not wearing Spanx and I was like, ‘Jesus Christ.'” In response, Milano sent the comedian a direct tweet on Christmas. “@jaymohr37 So sorry you felt the need to publicly fat-shame me. Be well and God Bless. Please send my love to your beautiful wife,” she wrote. “You’re all lovely. Thank you for your kind words. #Appreciative” Mohr has been married Nikki Cox since 2006; they have a son Meredith, 2. Milano and husband of three years Dave Bugliari welcomed son Milo in 2011. After receiving plenty of backlash, Jay explained as such: “@perezhilton @alyssa_milano She’s stunning … I mistakenly thought the absurdity of what I was saying would have been taken as a joke. #fail” Definitely right on the money … with the #fail aspect. Even though quotes don’t convey the right tone in print sometimes, how would a blatant, specific put-down of Alyssa’s weight be construed as facetious? His explanation is that he was just kidding, and Alyssa is so unspeakably gorgeous that implying anything but this fact would be an obvious joke. You buying it? Discuss in the comments …

R.I.P. “Booty Call” Director Jeffrey Pollack Found Dead At Age 54

Tragic news out of Hollywood . Veteran Director Jeffrey Ian Pollack Found Dead He was such a young, talented and successful producer. According to NY Daily News: The tragic death of veteran producer Jeffrey Ian Pollack has left friends, family and peers in mourning. The discovery of the 54-year-old “Booty Call” director’s body on a secluded jogging trail in California’s Hermosa Beach Monday has also left questions as to what killed the avid runner. By the time another jogger stumbled upon the body at 6:30 a.m. Monday, Pollack, wearing a jogging outfit as his Eagles tunes still played on his iPod, was already dead, the Hermosa Beach Easy Reader reported. A cause of death has yet to be released. Pollack’s death hit the industry hard – particularly for those who worked with him over a career that started as a producer on the early ’90s TV series “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,” which introduced rapper Will Smith to mainstream America. Credited as Jeff Pollack, he directed three movies -”Above the Rim,” which starred Marlon Wayans, in 1994; Jamie Foxx vehicle “Booty Call” in 1997; and the 1999 romantic comedy “Lost & Found” – but primarily concentrated on producing since. Business partner Benny Medina expressed his grief in a statement to Deadline.com: “He was my partner, but first and foremost, a great and loyal friend whom I loved dearly,” said Medina, who had run Handprint Entertainment, a management company, with Pollack until it closed down in 2008. “Gone too soon, I will miss him.” Medina added that Pollack’s greatest legacy was the two children he leaves behind — daughter Lael Pollack, 19, and son Logan Pollack, 13. Prayers go out to his family. WENN
