American Woman: The Presidential Mistress

Emily Farris — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 14:54:00 GMT

When you think of presidential mistresses do you imagine Monica Lewinsky and her blue dress making nightly appearances on Inside Edition? Or maybe you picture Marilyn Monroe baring all for photographer Bruce Stern in The Last Sitting. In fact, save for America’s bittersweet love for Ms. Monroe, presidential girlfriends are rarely presented in a positive light. Until now.

British painter Annie Kevans has captured every presidential mistress—and one mister—on record in her oil-on-paper series All the Presidents’ Girls.
JFK's conquests make up more than a third of the collection, but they share the spotlight with the likes of Jefferson’s slave girl Sally Hemings, Monica Lewinsky and William Rufus DeVane King—who was elected Vice President under Franklin Pierce and was rumored to have been James Buchanan’s undercover lover.

Kevans recently closed a three-day gallery show in New York but the entire series can be viewed online.

Museum Erotica Might Be the Economy's Next Victim

Brian Fairbanks — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 19:56:00 GMT

Copenhagen, Demark's Museum Erotica may be going out of business. Sources say that a public plea failed when the new investors pulled out at the last minute (no pun intended.)

A loss of this magnitude would be have worldwide consequences-- after all, where else are you going to see all this NSFW sex-related art?

According to the Copenhagen Post, the Museum may be put up for sale as early as today:

The City Council’s cultural committee has turned down a request to support the museum and the museum’s chief executive, Hanne Stensgaard, said the museum is facing the sale of its extensive collection.
The museum is home to more than 1,500 artifacts and pictures depicting erotica through the ages. [Copenhagen Post]

If that ends up happening, you know that private pervs will keep all these glorious art pieces to themselves, so enjoy them now, thanks to Flickr and other internet sources:

1) Statue from the museum; 2) Kama Sutra painting; 3) What's up with this figurine's penis?; 4) Yes, that is a vagina cam; 5) A sex doll or the new Pamela Anderson spread for Playboy?; 6) A Marilyn Monroe exhibit was featured recently at the museum.

Check out the museum's website-- hopefully, there will be news of a last-second savior any minute now...

Scanner Highs and Lows: Michael McDonald Still Hasn't Called

Emily Farris — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 22:01:00 GMT

Damn, this was a busy week. We fell in and out of love, we traveled, we encountered racism, and as always, we saw some boobs. Oh, and story of our lives: he never called.

Highs:

Susan Sarandon's boobs.

A sandwich that we want to make love to (even if we might throw up a little after).

You can now get a double dildo in Texas!

If you like "The Wire," you'll love "Wire You Laughing?"

Coolio has a cooking show and we want in on that shit.

Michael Musto does Lindsay Lohan's Marilyn Monroe... a little better, if you ask us.

A pro-Barack Obama video not made by Will.I.Am.

Ellen Page might have come out on Saturday Night Live. Or maybe not.

Lows:

As much as we'd like to think otherwise, we learned that Kansas City—Scanner Emily's hometown, which is in Missouri—is still a little racist.

Women running in high heels to prove that "shopping is a sport."

At least we get something out of bad movies: great reviews.

We're not sure if this is actually a good or bad thing, but Italian men are being fined for grabbing their crotches in public.

Outer Space can suck it. So there.

Can we just wrap-up this Democratic primary already?

Michael McDonald never called Scanner Emily. We're still waiting!

We learned that Hooters will survive the apocalypse.

Hot or Not: Michael Musto's Lindsay Lohan's Marilyn Monroe

Emily Farris — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 19:29:00 GMT

Michael Musto—Village Voice columnist, bicycle rider and VH1 talking head—has re-created Lindsay Lohan's photoshoot re-creating Marilyn Monroe's Last Sitting. So what do you think, hot or not? More shots after the jump.

Just in case you're wondering where we stand on this: hot and hilarious. Michael has a much better body than we expected him to... actually kind-of Lohan-esque. Also, we really want some cantaloupe right now...

More shots of Michael doing the nasty LiLo at The Village Voice.

Michael Lohan: The Only Person on Earth Who Won't See Lindsay Lohan's Breasts

Emily Farris — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 17:29:00 GMT

Are you tired of hearing about Lindsay's photos re-creating Marilyn Monroe's 'last sitting?' We're getting there, but it's our job to care about such things.

Who doesn't care to see them? Her daddy dearest, Michael Lohan.

And it seems they don't have the same kind-of relationship, as say, Jessica Simpson and her daddy Joe.

“I’m not going to look at the photos — that’s my daughter!” he told Usmagazine.com in a telephone interview this morning.

Still, he told Us he approves of his daughter’s decision to recreate the iconic 1962 photos of Marilyn Monroe known as “The Last Sitting” for New York magazine.

“Lindsay is an adult, and she knows the direction she wants to take her career,” he said. “It’s her decision.

“The fact that the photographer [Bert Stern] who did Marilyn Monroe’s pictures would ask Lindsay to re-create them … that’s an amazing thing.”

Emily Farris — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 18:17:00 GMT

Little Frances Bean Cobain is all grown up, and doing fashion spreads for Bazaar. She looks great even though we can totally tell that's not her real hair color.

Our big little sister FameCrawler is reporting that Juilette Lewis said Brad Pitt wasn't much of a big deal down there.

The Paul McCartney and Heather Mills divorce drama is almost over. We think.

Gorillas do it face-to-face, too.

Britney's new lawyer feels her civil rights are being violated.

50 Best Breasts: Try Saying That Five Times Really Fast

Nicole Pasulka — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 16:44:00 GMT

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. So what better time to celebrate the 50 Best Breasts in Movie History? Yeah, they're boobs, they're awesome, they're all embedded in YouTube videos right on your computer screen to drool shamelessly over. We think Penelope Cruz has been wrongly omitted, but really, who has the energy to argue? Just enjoy. You can thank God, or genetics, or breast enlargement exercises later.
