Or will we? Though Vivid claims they're legally entitled to release the tape, Shauna Sand's not so sure.

According to TMZ, Shauna admits that she and her boyfriend made a tape earlier this year, but that she hasn't given Vivid the rights to it. Vivid, on the other hand, claims they bought the tape from a third party, and are within their legal right to release it.

Which just leaves one question: how on earth did Shauna Sand make a sex tape this year and not realize that it would be in Vivid's hands within a matter of months? Unless her rage is just a ploy to drum up interest in another doubtless uninteresting celebrity porno...

<![CDATA[Live Nude Girl Transforms Trafalgar Square Into A Peep Show]]> Since July, the fourth plinth in London's Trafalgar—usually reserved for statues of kings and generals—has been taken over by One & Other, which invites Londoners to use the space however they wish, one hour at a time.

This morning, One and Other showcased one of its most popular participants of all: Naomi McDonald, a dancer from Stringfellows lapdancing club, spent her hour honing her craft (to the delight of many passersby). Clad only in a pair of panties and heels, and armed with a mini pole, Naomi pole danced her way into the hearts of many Londoners—and crashed the One and Other website in the process.

Who says art is boring?

<![CDATA[Maria Ozawa: Too Hot For Indonesia?]]> Crush Object Maria Ozawa wants to conquer the world southeast Asia with her charms—if the powers-that-be will let her. Though Maria—aka Miyabi—was cast in an Indonesian movie, some leaders aren't too keen to let her into the country.

Even though Maria will not be naked in the film ("Menculik Miyabi," or "Kidnapping Miyabi"), she's still raised the ire of Indonesians who don't approve of her day job. Amidhan, chairman of the Indonesian Council of Muslim Scholars, feels that inviting Ms. Ozawa into the country could give Indonesia a bad name. Hey, it hasn't hurt Taiwan any!

<![CDATA[NYC's Standard Hotel Is An Exhibitionist's Delight]]> Still mourning the loss of Times Square's peep shows? You'd do well to get to the High Line ASAP. The newly opened NYC park offers an excellent view of the Standard Hotel, whose floor-to-ceiling windows leave nothing to the imagination.

Of course, one man's free peep show is another's indecent exposure, so don't expect the fun to go on forever (especially not since the NY Post seems determined to get everyone to cover up. Nuts to you, Rupert Murdoch!).

<![CDATA[The Debate Over Topless Sunbathing Rages On...And Keeley Hazell Shocks Us All]]> Topless sunbathing—once de rigueur on European beaches—has fallen on hard times. Last summer, we heard it was officially out of fashion, now some French beaches are even fining women who attend the beach sans top.

Fine, upstanding news source that it is, London's Sun has decided to wage a debate about the subject in today's paper. On the pro side is noted feminist Germaine Greer, who no doubt offers the opinion that bodies are natural and nothing to be ashamed of. On the con side is...Keeley Hazell?

Yes, unless The Sun is outright tricking us, the Page 3 princess and owner of some of the world's best boobs now thinks that girls should keep their tops on while on the beach. We...we just don't know what to say. Keeley, how could betray us like this?

This kind of news calls for drastic action. Readers, what say you: should Keeley be stripped of her coveted Crush Object status? On the one hand, we value all the good times we shared, and memories we made; on the other...how can we laud someone who's against topless sunbathing?

This is going to take a good deal of deliberation, we'll tell you that.

<![CDATA[Hot For Teacher: Teacher Accidentally Sends Students Home With Porn]]> Talk about headlines ripped from our fantasies: a California teacher is in hot water after a DVD she created for her students was discovered to contain footage of her masturbating.

(Of course, in our fantasy, all the students are of legal age, and after the footage is discovered, everyone has a big orgy. Why can't real life be more like that?)

<![CDATA[Woman With World's Biggest Boobs Is (Gasp!) A Pornstar]]> 120XXX cup Norma Stitz (get it?) has the world's biggest boobs—and she recently went on Italian TV to discuss what it's like to be about 30% boob.

But The Sun wants you to know that she's not just any woman with the world's biggest boobs: she's also an AVN award winning pornstar (as anyone with access to Google can easily ascertain). We're not exactly sure why The Sun is shocked by this: when your boobs are so big that they impede day to day tasks, pornstar is probably a more appealing career than, say, administrative assistant.

<![CDATA[Philly Bikinis Go Bottoms Only]]> As if we didn't have enough reasons to be excited for the rapidly approaching summer swimsuit season, we've just learned that Philadelphia boutique Jack & Jill is now stocking topless swimsuits.

Granted, there's no guarantee that this trend will catch on at the Jersey Shore (and beyond)... but we can always hope, right? Oh, and ladies: if you're deterred by Jack & Jill's hefty price tag, we know an easy way to make your own bottoms-only bikini (and we're sure no one will be able to tell the difference.).

<![CDATA[Live Nude Models... On Your TV!]]> Dying to go to a life drawing class—but a little bit too shy to draw naked people in public? Starting this summer, you won't have to worry anymore: the models will be coming to you!

Well, at least if you're in Great Britain, where Channel 4 will be broadcasting "Life Class: Today's Nude," a five part series that allows the home viewer to sit in (and participate in) a life drawing class—and yes, it's complete with full frontal nudity.

Sadly, the program is causing some controversy, as some are shocked by the thought of nudity—even of the artistic, educational persuasion—appearing on the telly before 9pm. Well, if the show happens to get canceled before July, there's always Dr. Sketchy's Anti-Art School.

We're so confused. Which is it? Pro-porn or anti-porn? And how will Holder and Ogden ever get along?

<![CDATA[Stormy Daniels: (Possibly) Drafted!]]> A few weeks ago, we reported that Stormy Daniels had turned down the opportunity to run against Louisiana Senator David Vitter. Well, apparently we were wrong—we're now hearing she's actually considering a run.

As the Daily Beast has it, Stormy's gaze was turned towards political pursuits when she discovered "Draft Stormy," a web-based campaign to convince Stormy to attempt to unseat Vitter in the Republican primary. Now, we're all for seeing hypocritical politicians ousted out of office—particularly ones who trump their conservative, anti-sex credentials while secretly visiting prostitutes in their spare time—but there's just something a little off-putting about the whole "Draft Stormy" campaign.

We'll cut to the chase: we're bothered by the fact Stormy Daniels isn't being "drafted" because she's Stormy Daniels, the awesome and amazing individual—she's being drafted, first and foremost, because she's a pornstar from Louisiana. Long before "Draft Stormy" ever existed, an ad appeared on Craigslist seeking "a female in some aspect of the adult-entertainment industry" to run against Vitter. Stormy only became the chief candidate that she was a Louisiana-based pornstar who just might work as a candidate.

And why a female from the adult industry? Because the people behind the campaign want to make the point that:

...an honest, intelligent adult film actress has more integrity than a married Republican politician who dallied with prostitutes on the down-low.

Which, frankly, we think sounds a bit condescending to the adult industry—and, for that matter, to Stormy. (We're also curious to know why the campaign specifically wanted an adult film actress—does "Draft Evan Stone" just not have the same ring?)

But hey, maybe we're just being negative nellies here: after all, if Stormy does run, there's a huge opportunity for progress right there. Italy elected its first pornstar politician in 1987—maybe 2009 will be the year America follows in its footsteps?

We'll be keeping our fingers crossed for that one.

<![CDATA[Porn Goes 3D!]]> Over the years, porn has gone through many technical innovations—the internet! HD porn! Mobile porn!—so we're half surprised to learn that it's taken this long to see the launch of 3D porn.

Seriously, 3D porn? Isn't that something that should have been done back in the fifties, when 3D technologically actually seemed like something new and impressive? Is there some reason that people have waited this long to combine the power of porn with the power of 3D technology?

Oh right, there is: nobody wants 3D porn.
