It’s a sad day for Skinema lovers all over the world as we bid farewell to sexploitation legend Sylvia Kristel . A beauty queen in her native Holland, Sylvia first became famous for her fantastically nude role as the original Emmanuelle (1974). One of the first erotic films to be shown in mainstream theaters, Emmanuelle was a massive success that went on to play in one Parisian cinema for a staggering 11 years. She returned for the sequels Emmanuelle 2 (1975), Good-bye, Emmanuelle (1977), and Emmanuelle IV (1984). As the slinky, supple embodiment of ’80s Euro eroticism, Sylvia went on to star as the legendary seductress Mata Hari (1985) and as a sexually adventurous housewife in Lady Chatterley’s Lover (1981). She then brought her heaving hills to Hollywood for parts in the skin classics Private Lessons (1981) and Private School (1983), although personal problems eventually brought her career to a standstill. Sylvia was diagnosed with cancer this past July, and her agent Marieke Verharen tells the AFP news agency that “” she died during the night during her sleep. ” Good-bye, Emmanuelle. You will be missed. Celebrate the life and career of Mr. Skin Hall-of-Famer Sylvia Kristel right here at MrSkin.com

The flyer was found circulating in one of the dorms at Miami University in Ohio. The school tried to keep the story under wraps and didn’t alert the student body . The school said it didn’t say isht because the incident was “confined strictly to McBride Hall.” SMH According to The Daily News… Miami University in Ohio is under fire after a disturbing flier offering tips on how to rape women was found in the men’s bathroom of a coed freshman dorm. The list, “Top Ten Ways to Get Away with Rape,” tells readers that “practice makes perfect,” adding, “the more you rape, the better you get at it.” “If you’re afraid that the girl will identify you, slit her throat,” the flier also advises. A resident assistant at the dorm, McBride Hall, found the note on the weekend of Oct. 6 and reported it to university officials the following Monday, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported. “I read the flier. I was shocked,” Barbara Jones, Miami’s vice president for student affairs, told the newspaper. “It has no place on our campus or any other campus.” In response, the university organized a mandatory meeting for male students in the dorm, launched a police investigation and ramped up police presence in the hall. But Kate Van Fossen, a junior at the university and vice president of Woman Against Violence and Sexual Assault, says the university should have done more, such as alerting the entire student body immediately after the incident. The university issued a response to students this week, Van Fossen said, adding that while she “appreciated” the notice, it was too little too late. “I don’t want to point fingers at the university,” she told the Daily News. “But it is so important for awareness to be pointed towards this incident because sexual assault does tend to be an issue that people brush under the rug.” Jones told the Cincinnati Enquirer that the university did not notify all students right away because the incident was “confined strictly to McBride Hall.” Van Fossen, however, questioned how serious the university is about sexual assault prevention given that the school has not had a sexual assault prevention coordinator in a year. “I was absolutely shocked,” she told the Daily News of the flier. “It brought tears to my eyes that someone on my campus, joking or not joking, came up with those things to say and posted them in a public place for other boys to see. You never know who [the poster] is reaching out to.” At least 27 sexual assaults have been reported on campus since 2009, with 19 of the assaults allegedly occurring in dorms, according to the Miami University Police website. Claire Wagner, the university’s director of news and public information, told the Daily News that officials have not yet identified the people responsible for the “awful” flier. The culprit, however, will face several possible sanctions, including removal from the dorm, mandatory educational programs and suspension. Obviously this was a bad joke but rape doesn’t seem like the best subject to give tips on. Wonder how many of the guys who saw it thought the flier was wrong? Images via en.wikipedia and twitter
Dear Bossip , I look forward to reading these letters everyday its usually the first thing I do before I even log into work! Well, I have a dilemma on my hands. I’m a 32-year old mother of 3 kids, and I’ve been dating this nice Southern man for about 1 year. I recently introduced him to my children and they really like him. He is a great guy, family oriented, gainfully employed, great sense of humor, basically all the things I’ve asked for, BUT he is dumb as a brick. I don’t mean to be mean but I’m serious. Even to the point where my 15-year old has given him the side eye at some of the things he says. Don’t get me wrong I’m no scholar myself. I do okay though, and when I need too I Google or right-click something I’m willing to take the time to learn. But, this man just decides to use my brain instead. He’s always asking, “What should I say?” Or, “How do you spell this?” It’s getting to be so annoying!!! I don’t know if you have ever argued with a special brained person, but let me just say I’d rather beat my head against a wall. It’s starting to affect the way I look at him as a possible mate for the future. But, as the old saying goes I don’t want to throw the baby out with the bath water. Am I being too picky? What do I do? – Brained Burned Out Dear Ms. Brained Burned Out , LMBAO! Well, when you asked for this great guy who is family oriented, gainfully employed, with a great sense of humor, did you think to ask for someone who is smart, intelligent, wise, and educated? LOL! I’m from the school that you get what you ask for. So, if you’re not specific in your request from the universe, then you will end up with what you got. If you just want a man, any man, then you will get any man. That is why so many people end up in the relationships they have. They are not specific in the requests for the type of man they need. If you don’t expand your own ideas of a mate, then you will get what you ask for. If you don’t ask for a single, eligible, spiritual, loving, successful, gainfully employed, smart man who believes in monogamy, and who is able to express his love, desires, wants, and needs, and who desires and willing to be in love, desires and willing to be committed, desires and willing to grow and become a better man, then you will not meet or get this type of man. Be specific in your request for the man, or woman, you need in your life. And, believe me when I tell you this, people show up in your life to teach you lessons, to help you grow, and to become a better you. And, this man may be the one to help you grow, teach you a lesson, and experience something you’ve never experienced before. LOOK FOR THE LESSON IN THIS, AND IN THIS RELATIONSHIP. He just may be the man of your dreams if you’re willing to invest in him. Now, I’m not saying you have to stay in the relationship with him. If you’re not compatible, and you feel you are not growing, and he’s not helping you to grow, then get out of the relationship. But, you can encourage him. Engage him. Invite him to sit at the computer with you and learn as you’re teaching him. Recommend books to him. Take him to the museum, and on other cultured events where couples can learn and do things together. Make your date nights educational, yet, exciting for you mentally, physically, and emotionally. Take up a cooking class together. Hell, you can even learn a foreign language together. The point I’m making is that your man appears to be willing to learn and to be shaped. The fact that he is asking questions says it all. He wants to know. And, I’m sure he knows he’s not smart as a whip. Besides, Ms. Honey, if he is everything you want and desire in a man, but lacks the brain smarts then shape that man into the man you want and need for him to be. Help him to see his potential. Help him to realize his greatness. This is just an investment in him, and in your relationship. And, think about it, he’s not cheating on you, misusing you, abusing you, got another woman pregnant, and he doesn’t make you feel inadequate or unworthy. You said he is a great guy. Then make him wonderful! Yes, it can become redundant, overwhelming, and a pain in the a** when you’re constantly helping him with something. You’ve been doing it for over a year. So, if you’re not willing to invest in him, and the relationship, and he’s really becoming annoying, then imagine if you stay another year, 5 years, or 10 years. It will only get worse and you will resent him, thus, his mere presence will be an annoyance for you. You will start to belittle him and embarrass him in public. You will get joy out of making him feel stupid. And, that is not healthy or smart. So, get out now if you don’t want this to be the rest of your life with him. But, just know that the next time you ask for a man, be more specific in your request: SMART, INTELLIGENT, WISE, and HUMBLE WITH HIS INTELLIGENCE. You don’t want to get a smart a** who knows every damn thang! LOL! – Terrance Dean Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think? Share your opinions and thoughts below!

Bossip: How do you feel about the emergence of white rappers? HDH: I think it’s great! Hip Hop is a culture and a sound, not a color. Music is versatile and relatable to diverse types of people. I was one of the 1st talented “White Rappers” or “White Female Rappers” on World Star and other spots on the internet and it feels great to open the door for others. A few years ago, my 1st song I released on the net went viral and was talked about on a bunch of blogs and sites! I feel like I was and am a Pioneer for White Rappers! I wish I would’ve had better management at that time! Bossip: How does you feel about Iggy? HDH: Is that the one signed to TI? I only heard a couple songs by her, but she sounds good and is talented based on the songs I heard. She looks nice too….I wish her the best! I hope she kills the game! Maybe we will collab in the future. Bossip: Who robbed You? Memphitz? How much did they rob you for? HDH:Ha ha ha! Nahhhhhh! I never met Memph yet….This was a manager I hired from Houston. This snakes name is Marcus Goree aka “”Money Marc” and he embezzled $150,000+ by forging documents and skimming by inflating prices and other unethical practices. He was working for me for about 1.5 years and he was embezzling most of the money in the budget each month and using it on his own artist and to floss and pay his bills which lead to my projects not appearing to be top quality BUT I took him to court and WON and the judge awarded me $2.1 Million in April! It feels good to win over evil and I felt vindicated! That situation taught me a lot and I now have a better team and a clearer vision of where I want to go. My Time Is Now! Bossip: Are your kids mixed? HDHL No my children are White Bossip: What do you feel about black folks who think white women are “stealing” their black men? HDH: My serious answer is “I think that it’s sad that they look at the world from such a racist point of view or feel like they are threatened or inferior or something. Everyone and every color has their own beauty, I don’t think anyone is inferior or superior, just different. I prefer Black men lol they sexy!” My joking answer “Everyone takes what they like from other cultures,” a lot of Black women like to sport Korean Women Hair, why can’t White women have some sexy black arm candy?” Bossip: Are you still with your baby daddy? HDH: No! Bossip: Where you raised around all black people? HDH: Yes and no. I mostly went to schools that were mixed mostly with Black, Latino, and Asian. Mostly Black, and then the others and maybe like 10 White people. But there were no black people in my family. Bossip: How do your parents feel about you in this culture? HDH: They didn’t! That’s why I left home while in High School to pursue my own dreams, goals and ambitions. Most don’t know this but aside from all of the drama I had to go through because my parents didn’t believe in my dream, I still managed to be the Valedictorian of my High School. Bossip: What makes your flow different? HDH: I’m versatile and like to try different and unusual sounds in the instrumentals Bossip: What’s up with an adult tape? You do know that would blow you all the way up, right? HDH: LMAO! ROFL! I haven’t had to take my clothes off yet to get millions of views so why resort to it now? Why use what’s between my legs for money when my brain is so much more powerful! Bossip: How do you feel about the nicki vs kim beef? HDH: I think they were using Greene’s 48 Laws of Power. Nicki used Kims stature by mimicking her and attacking her, tapping into Kim’s power and fanbase. Then Kim fed into it and started attacking her back, which then made Kim look like she felt threatened. When Nicki got HOT and started getting accolades it was in Kim’s best interest to try and keep her name in Nicki’s mouth to keep her buzz up! Classic!
Clifford Harris and family are certainly undergoing a image transformation… T.I.’s Family Poses As The Huxtables For InTouch Magazine Via InTouchWeekly Clifford “T.I.” Harris — known mainly for his hard-core rap songs and a recent stint in prison for a parole violation after a previous incarceration on gun charges — has traded street life for the sweet life! The family man poses at an exclusive photo shoot for In Touch — on newsstands now — re-creating the iconic Cosby Show portrait with his wife Tameka “Tiny” Cottle and their blended brood of six children. With their new VH1 reality show T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle, many have compared them to the famous TV family. “It’s flattering, though I like to think of us as a unique piece of our society! The Huxtables are more conservative, older and from a different environment. But we share unity, strength and prominence.” T.I. says it was his family whose support got him through his 10 months behind bars. “I went to see him every week and the kids talked to him all the time,” “Tiny” tells In Touch. And though it’s a handful with six kids from the age of 4 to 16, T.I. is enjoying the domestic world. “It’s chaotic — but if it wasn’t, it’d be boring!” T.I. is far from Bill Cosby, but we actually like the lil’ show they have. At least VH1 balanced out some of the ratchetness that they usually bring us (who ever thought that felony-prone T.I. would be bringing stability and values to an out-of-pocket situation?).

Black Kindergarten Student Says White Teacher Forced Her To Eat Bagel Out Of The Trash A white kindergarten teacher is getting a mouth full from the school board after she forced one of her black students to eat a bagel from the trashcan. via News One A 5-year-old girl has accused her kindergarten teacher of forcing her eat a bagel that she had tossed in the trash. The child’s miffed mother contacted police, reached out to child protective services and has fired a lawyer to deal with the teacher and her alleged act, the South Jersey Times reports. The child, Ke’Nya, who is black, attends the Deerfield Township Elementary School in New Jersey. The youngster told her mom, Candice Harris, that she threw away the bagel because she didn’t like the taste. The teacher, who is white and who has not been identified, walked over to the trash can, pulled out the bagel, then reportedly forced the child to eat it in front of all of her classmates. “The teacher admitted it to me right away in front of the superintendent,” Harris told the South Jersey Times. “The teacher told me that she wouldn’t have had a problem eating the bagel. She also refused to apologize. It wasn’t until I threatened to file a police report, hire an attorney and go to the News that the superintendent offered an apology. There was absolutely no sign of remorse from the teacher.” According to Harris, the teacher explained that the trash was only full of paper but the mother feels this fact does not justify her actions in any way. After reviewing the case, New Jersey State Police determined that the matter should remain within the confines of the Board of Education. “We looked into it and determined that it is not a criminal matter,” said Lt. Gary Catts. This mess is just unacceptable! We’re glad the girl’s mother was able to keep her cool inspite of this wench acting like she did nothing wrong though. Image via Shutterstock
Honestly, whenever a movie’s main selling point is “Hey, check it out! Oscar winners talking about poop and wieners!”, we’re skeptical. We’re sure Kate Winslet likes to show off her range and all, but there’s a reason she’s not known for her comedic roles. There are a lot of red flags surrounding the production of Movie 43 (2013), actually– that it took four years to finish, for example, or that 15 writers and 11 different directors, including Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008) star Elizabeth Banks , were involved– but here’s the thing. The usual rules don’t apply to this movie, and here’s why: Ever wish that Peter Farrelly would make his version of The Kentucky Fried Movie (1977)? Well, here it is. Halle Berry plays a dirty version of truth or dare (let’s just say turkey basters are involved) in a restaurant, Naomi Watts dons a side ponytail as a mom who bullies her home-schooled son, and Anna Faris wants Chris Pratt to poop on her. Plus, a segment chronicling the invention of the “iBabe” promises to be Movie 43′ s answer to Uschi Digard ‘s mam-entous appearance as a “Catholic High School Girl in Trouble,” and that’s enough to sell us on almost anything. Movie 43 doesn’t hit theaters until January 25, 2013 , but you can see more from stars Halle Berry , Kate Winslet , Anna Faris , Naomi Watts , Emma Stone , Elizabeth Banks , Kristen Bell , Uma Thurman , Kate Bosworth , and (phew) Leslie Bibb right here at MrSkin.com!
Like auntie, like niece! Jamie Lynn Spears posted a photo of her adorable daughter Maddie, 4, on Instagram for “Celebrity Day” at her school! Do you see the resemblance? Maddie chose to dress up as none other than her famous aunt Britney Spears … circa 1998 “Baby One More Time” video. Of course, the tot’s look was more demure and appropriate than the original, but she nailed the Catholic school girl look perfectly. “Celebrity Day” was part of the school’s Homecoming Week, Jamie Lynn explained. The former Nickelodeon star, Jamie Lynn, has opened up about how motherhood has bonded her with Britney.
After Cloud Atlas ‘s Fantastic Fest debut I caught up with Lana Wachowski at the Alamo Drafthouse’s Highball, where she and Andy, AKA Wachowski Starship , were beaming and greeting festgoers. (I’m told they were given a tour of the Highball’s private karaoke rooms but didn’t partake in Austin’s favored pastime.) Conversation landed on Michelle Obama, of course (the two best sets of arms in the biz? Michelle Obama and Lana Wachowski), and that’s when Lana dropped a revelation in true Cloud Atlas style: “She went to our high school!” True enough — it happens Chicago’s Whitney M. Young High School turned out the First Lady in ’81, Lana in ’83, and Andy in ’86. Everything is connected, indeed. [ More from Fantastic Fest… ]
