Maryna Linchuk is some Victoria’s Secret model from Belarus, who I guess could have been a mail order bride and cam girl – like so many Russians before her, but who instead works the model scenes – which would be a tragedy for anyone on the market for a Russian bride, because she’s a good one, or any Russian cam site viewers, because she’s a good one, but the good news, is that models get naked as part of their work….from Allure to GQ to all the big players in magazines trying to survive against the internet porn…they all get these models naked…sure it is for fashion…but if these was the 70s, the publisher would be getting shot for indecency charges and being anti-Christian… I guess we’ve come a long way as a people, especially these Russians, since they aren’t communist anymore…but they are naked…and amazing because I guess communism killed off all the ugly ones…and I like that….because who needs uglies…right…
Isht just keeps getting messier between these two . Angela Stanton Sues Phaedra Parks For Defamation Angela swears she’s telling the truth. Come on you knew Phaedra was off when she took that big wad of cash outside the courtroom. According to Rhymes With Snitch Everybody knows Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Phaedra Parks is suing Angela Stanton and Vibe Magazine for defamation over Angela’s memoir, ‘Lies of Real Housewife. Now Angela turns the tables on Phaedra by filing a defamation lawsuit of her own… Angela’s lawyer, James Radford, explains the new filing, “We have filed our own claims for defamation, tortious interference with business relationships, punitive damages, and attorneys’ fees.” “Phaedra Parks’ lawsuit and the tactics employed against Ms. Stanton and her publisher have undermined Stanton’s ability to market the intellectual property that is her compelling personal narrative.” Hopefully these ladies can settle their differences on “RHOA” or “Fix My Life.” We love us some angry bird beef.

Tom Cruise’s $50 million lawsuit against a tabloid is getting uglier by the day, as the media group who owns Life & Style is fighting back hard against him. Cruise sued Bauer Media Group in October after L&S ran a story suggesting he “abandoned” daughter Suri Cruise after his split from Katie Holmes. Now, both sides are gearing up for a court battle, and the celebrity gossip publisher is demanding a LONG list of information from the movie star. Specifically, Bauer Media wants to legally establish “the extent to which Tom Cruise was in contact with Suri following his separation and divorce.” Moreover, it wants to know what role Tom’s membership in the Church of Scientology played in decisions re: communicating and visiting with Suri. Bauer’s attorney Alonzo Wickers also demands to know what Suri’s mental and emotional state was after her parents’ separation and divorce. He also wants to examine the actor’s history of filing lawsuits. Cruise’s lawyer insists that “Tom doesn’t go around suing people. He’s not a litigious guy,” but in this case, the L&S claim was libelous and damaging. He wants Life & Style to reveal its “anonymous” sources. Cruise’s camp also wants to know Bauer’s policies regarding obtaining information from sources, paying those contacts and verifying their credibility. The actor’s attorney also vowed to explore the publisher’s alleged history of “bigotry and hatred toward minority religious groups and their members.” The increasingly complex case could actually go to trial if motions to dismiss are denied and settlement isn’t reached before that. Stay tuned.
Chris Kyle, a former Navy SEAL who wrote “American Sniper” about his career as a marksman in Iraq, was shot dead at a gun range in Texas Saturday. Kyle, 38, and another man were found dead at the shooting range of Rough Creek Lodge on Saturday afternoon, the Texas Highway Patrol said. The killer, identified as Eddie Ray Routh of Lancaster, Texas, was arrested after a brief pursuit, Trooper and spokesman Lonny Haschel confirmed. The other victim was named as Chad Littlefield, aged 35. Kyle, a Texas native who grew up hunting, served four tours in Iraq with Navy SEAL Team 3, and is credited with 160 confirmed kills as a marksman. His shooting during battles in Ramadi and Fallujah became legendary, and insurgents nicknamed him the “Devil of Ramadi” and put a bounty on his head. Remarkable skill at his craft – one shooting too place from 2,100 yards, 1.2 miles away – earned Chris the reputation as “America’s deadliest sniper.” In a February 2012 interview with NBC News, Kyle said he didn’t want to put the number of people he killed in the book but the publisher insisted. “If I could figure out the number of people I saved, that’s something I would brag about,” he told NBC News’ Lester Holt, regarding the U.S. mission. Those close to him were shocked by the news. “It just comes as a shock and it’s staggering to think that after all Chris has been through, that this is how he meets his end,” Scott McEwen, his co-author, said. After leaving the Navy, Kyle founded Craft International, a group that provides training to military, police, corporate and civilian clients, Reuters said. Kyle was married with two children. Police said Routh is believed to have shot the victims at around 3:30 p.m. before leaving the shooting range and returning to his home in a pickup truck. The link between Routh and the two victims wasn’t immediately clear. The Dallas Morning News reported that Routh is 25 and had military training.
Valentina Shaposhnik is what I assume is a Russian Glamour Model, something I didn’t know existed before today, but I guess should have known existed, because a Glamour model is really just a chick with big old tits, often times new tits, who poses for the same magazine over and over again…..cuz after googling her…cuz I’m an investigative journalist…I found that she’s done at least 5 shoots for XXL RUssia before…representing their lack of effort and creativity, despite her being a total standard looking babe I would always look at naked, because Russia is filled with babes who would be willing to do this, and who I’d be willing to look at doing this, cuz based on the mail order bride sites I browse looking for a replacement to my beater, I’ve found so much gold….but I guess why kill a good thing off…especially when she’s probably dating the publisher….who insists use my girl…or you’re all fucking fired…that’s usually how these things work..
Amanda Bynes is threatening legal action over a celebrity news report that claims the troubled actress was wandering around a New York tanning salon naked. In Touch claimed Thursday that the 26-year-old was seen at Beach Bump tanning salon in NYC. Nude. “She walked out of the room completely naked,” a source said. Except for goggles, that is. There’s your awesome visual for the day. “She didn’t seem to care in the last that everyone saw her naked. She seemed totally out of it … There was definitely something wrong with her.” Bynes denies the report and is threatening legal action, Celebuzz reports. “I’m suing In Touch for printing a fake story,” the furious star said. “I’m not ‘troubled.’ I don’t get naked in public. I’m 26, a multi-millionaire, retired. Please respect my privacy.” Troubled or not, Bynes’ behavior has raised concerns. A string of hit-and-runs and DUIs and being photographed smoking from a drug pipe in of her car will do that. All those things actually happened, of course. This tanning story? Let’s just say that In Touch isn’t the most reliable gossip source. Just last month, Tom Cruise’s lawyer Bert Fields filed a $50 million lawsuit against the publisher for two stories that falsely claimed Tom abandoned daughter Suri, 6. You can’t sue someone for printing the truth, but Cruise clearly didn’t “abandon” anyone. As for Amanda Bynes , we’ll see if she makes good on her threat. [Photo: WENN.com]
After Rupert Murdoch’s newspaper controversially published the pictures of Prince Harry naked in Vegas, the publisher urged the public to lay off the royal. “Prince Harry. Give him a break,” he Tweeted. “He may be on the public payroll one way or another, but the public loves him, even to enjoy Las Vegas.” “Only lesson for Prince Harry: avoid playmates with cameras!” Harry was infamously photographed partying in the nude in a Las Vegas hotel room last weekend, and the photos hit the web via TMZ late Tuesday. Murdoch’s The Sun ignored a warning from the palace and a regulatory ruling on Friday morning by printing the naked Harry pics on its front pages. The cover, like Harry himself, was cheeky. So to speak. Part of Murdoch’s justification for running the Prince Harry nude shot – aside from basic freedom of the press – was that it’s already all over the web. How could they demand he not print something everyone had already seen or could with a single Google search? It just didn’t make any sense … to him. If there are more pics to come , which has been rumored, don’t expect he will hold back in that case either, but at least we know how he’d vote in our poll: Prince Harry …
Movieline would like to introduce The Player , a recurring feature in which we look at the crossroads where video games and moviemaking intersect. We’ll regularly be looking at games that inspire movies, movies that inspire games and a lot of fun stuff in between. For our first foray, Luke McKinley writes on Manos: The Hands of Fate , an excruciatingly bad 1965 micro-budget film that manages work well as a video game. “The game of the movie” is a worse curse than Cruciatus , and usually causes more pain. It’s such a guarantee of failure that even the Street Fighter movie game sucked, and that started with one of the greatest games of all time. They’re terrible because the studio has to acquire the license, and when any company spends most of its budget on lawyers, the lawyers are the only ones who get to have any fun. Once the rights are secured, there’s usually enough cash left in the kitty for a design team of two interns and a crayon. FreakZone Games found a way around this: Start with the worst movie of all time. That would be Manos: The Hands of Fate. (To watch the entire movie, if you dare, scroll down to the YouTube video below). This abomination was made when an insurance and fertilizer salesman named Harold P. Warren bet that he could make a horror movie for less than $20,000. He failed spectacularly. The results would have less painful — and more coherent — if he’d filmed himself drinking $20,000 worth of tequila. The actors are so bad that they can barely talk. One is so bad he can barely walk. John Reynolds, who played Torgo, handyman and henchman to the villainous “Master,” appeared to have taken his acting classes from electroshock therapy. Reynolds’attempts to look supernatural make his appearances look jerkier than an art student’s stop-motion film — and more tedious, too. It can take up to three minutes for him to cross a scene, and if you think the camera or actors do anything to distract from this you are wildly overestimating: a) their commitment to the project; b) their understanding of cinema, c) their baseline brain activity. Then there’s the movie’s title villain, The Master, played by Torn Neyman. At one point, he studies himself in the mirror and declares, “Yes, I am the face of horror.” That’s him in the poster with the fancy moustache. Scary, right? In addition to being widely recognized as one of the biggest stinkers in filmdom, Manos is also a testament to the healing power of laughter. The movie is now a cult favorite thanks largely to the crew behind Mystery Science Theater 3000, who mocked it to pieces in 1993 , and, on Aug. 16, mauled it a second time — this time, live — when they reunited under the name of Rifftrax . FreakZone took a similar approach. The video game version of Manos: The Hands of Fate is an homage to retro gaming and a satire of almost every other movie game ever made. It avoids sucking by wallowing in the cliches of video-game movie adaptations. And there are many. In the 1980s and ’90s, every movie franchise was turned into a platformer. Childish sword and sorcery tales, action movies, romantic dramas, tearjerkers about people in wheelchairs who were scared of heights — it didn’t matter. Manos, the game, improves upon the movie right from the get-go with better acting. It also reminds you of how evil games used to be before they started being built for the mediocre skills of broad movie-going audiences. In FreakZone’s Manos , it’s possible to die at the first jump. Tap A and misjudge the distance, and that’s it, you’re dead. (In Manos , the movie, the Master takes a good 20 minutes to get around to killing Torgo.) There are also invincible immortal enemies (who do nothing but float up and down), edge-of-the-block jumps for bonus items, and even curse-inducing sine-wave-flying enemies to knock you off platforms and trigger Castlevania flashbacks. The real glory of this game is proving that the internet is better for creativity than a whiteboard made of LSD. Hollywood spends more money to minimize risk than the Secret Service, and the gaming industry hasn’t just been taking notes. If you walked into a video game publisher in the ’90s and told them you wanted to make this game, they would have hired new security to escort you out of the building just so their regular security didn’t have to touch you. But now a few people with the right combination of skills and mental problems can build and sell a game like Manos: The Hands of Fate for a couple of bucks, and it’s fantastic. There’s a real chance the $1.99 I paid for the game will represent 50% of the publisher’s entire profit on the sale, but I’m still glad I gave it to them. That’s because with Manos: The Hands of Fate , FreakZone has achieved the impossible: It made a game that was better than the movie. Luke McKinney loves the real world, but only because it has movies and video games in it. He responds to every tweet. Follow Luke McKinney on Twitter. Follow Movieline on Twitter.
‘I hope to give her fans something to treasure,’ Cissy Houston says about her book on Whitney. By Gil Kaufman Cissy Houston and Whitney Houston Photo: Getty Images Whitney Houston’s mother, gospel great Cissy Houston, is prepping a memoir on her famous daughter that promises to tell the “unabridged and unbelievable” story of Whitney’s career. According to the The Associated Press , the as-yet untitled book is scheduled to come out in February, one year after the Grammy-winning singer died of accidental drowning in her Beverly Hills hotel bathtub on the eve of the Grammys at age 48. “When I lost my daughter Nippy (Whitney Houston’s nickname), the world lost one of the most beautiful voices and an extraordinarily beautiful and charitable woman,” Cissy Houston said in a statement released by the book’s publisher. “In sharing our story in this book, I hope to give her fans something to treasure, the way we all treasured Whitney. We are still receiving thousands of letters each day from her fans, and I hope reading this book will provide a deeper understanding into my daughter’s true story.” Publisher HarperCollins promised that Cissy Houston would write with “candor honesty and respect,” in chronicling her daughter’s career heights, as well as Whitney’s legendary drug problems, tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown and her own grief. “She will tell the unabridged and unbelievable story of her daughter’s life as well as her own, addressing Whitney’s brightest and darkest moments while helping fans around the world understand the complexities of this extraordinary star who died much too soon,” the publisher said. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of the book will be donated to Newark, New Jersey’s New Hope Baptist Church, the house of worship where Whitney grew up singing in the choir, as well as the church where her funeral was held. “Ultimately, Cissy will go behind the headlines to show the true, human side of this strong, successful yet complicated musical icon, capturing the dramatic depths and soaring range of an extraordinary woman, along with the pain and heartbreak of a grieving mother as she struggles with impossible loss,” according to the publisher. Before Houston’s book hits shelves, a documentary focusing on the 48 hours leading up to this year’s Grammy Awards will premiere on June 11 at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. The 26-minute movie will look at how the show dealt with Houston’s death and include interviews with host LL Cool J, Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters, Bruce Springsteen and Jennifer Hudson.
