· We wouldn't exactly call it a "nipple slip", and we promised ourselves never to use the phrase "wardrobe malfunction" again, but we really don't know how else to describe what happened to Jessica Alba on the red carpet of the US Hot Hollywood Awards last night.

· Angelina Jolie and her private collection of beautiful humans are all over People's latest "100 Most Beautiful People" issue.

Sound familiar? (nytimes.com; registration required)
· A supporter of Japan's "romantic pornography" films says, "We would like to shake the whole Japanese movie industry from its foundations." Sounds like a noble goal and we think we have the answer: Hire Godzilla. Who wouldn't pay to see radioactive giant lizard porn? (japantimes.co.jp)
· Want to know where the future of digital entertainment lies? Just follow the porn industry, which has a habit of being years ahead of Hollywood when it comes to adopting the latest technology. Since you read Fleshbot every day, though, we're sure you knew that already. (cbsnews.com)
