Star Couplings: NHL Star Sean Avery Suspended For Calling Elisha Cuthbert “Sloppy Seconds”

  • Hockey player Sean Avery, who used to date actress Elisha Cuthbert (she ditched Justin Timberlake’s best friend Trace Ayala for Avery), was suspended by the NHL for making inappropriate public comments. At a press conference yesterday, he said, in reference to Calgary Flames defenseman Dion Phaneuf, who is currently dating Cuthbert: “I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the NHL for guys to fall in love with my sloppy seconds. I don’t know what that’s about. Enjoy the game tonight.” Who knew the NHL has such tough policies on manners? [Us Weekly]

  • Real Chick Lit: Passport To Pleasure

    There are so many reasons to travel: discovering new cultures, sampling exotic cuisines, scoping out gorgeous, historical scenery, and, of course, the opportunity to say that you’ve done it with someone from another country, in another country. If globe-trotting for the sake of sex isn’t in the cards for you anytime in the near future, you’re not completely out of luck when it comes to sampling what’s on the menu at the International House of Lovecakes. Laura Corn, author of all sorts of amp-up-your-sex-life literature, believes that integrating some internationally-inspired romanticisms into your oh-so domestic sex life is not only the next best thing to actually getting lucky on foreign soil, but might actually be the key to revving up an otherwise lackluster love life. Just think: Cheeseburgers are damn good, yet how sad would your palate be without the likes of sushi, Pad Thai, and enchiladas? You get the picture. Keep reading »

    Who’s Your Sugar Daddy?

    This week, the female blogosphere is abuzz with chatter over a story by a college senior in Philadelphia entitled “My Sugar Daddy.” According to “Melissa Beech,” the pseudonymous author, she’s your average, upper-middle class girl: “I was blessed to have been raised with class, sent to the best schools, and taught to be well read, well spoken and well traveled.” During college, she worked in retail and as a waitress, but she spent more than she earned and the economy was tanking. When she set out to find a “real” job, she encountered a man who made her a different kind of offer: a “Mutually Beneficial Arrangement.” In a nutshell, he forks over around $5,000 a month, they travel together, he takes her to fancy hotels, and they have sex. He was already looking for such a relationship as a member of SeekingArrangement.com. Beech believes what she’s doing isn’t prostitution: “women have used their wiles and charms to get ahead for years.” So what do you think? Is she a smart girl working a recession to her advantage — or a call girl in denial? Keep reading »

    How To Get Your Eggs Nogged At A Holiday Party

    It’s hard not to get smitten with someone at an open bar, especially if you’re single in December.

    A 9-Year-Old Pick-Up Artist Shares His Secrets

    Holy adorableness. While Mystery, “The Pick-Up Artist,” makes our hair stand up on its ends, the 9-year-old version makes us squeal. Little Alec Greven just published a book with Harper Collins called, “How To Talk To Girls.” In it he explains how a young gentleman can win the affections of his paramour on the playground, with such gems as “comb your hair and don’t wear sweats” and “if I say hi and you say hi back, we’re probably off to a good start.” He also warns his readers, “It is easy to spot pretty girls because they have big earrings, fancy dresses and all the jewelry. Pretty girls are like cars that need a lot of oil.” He advises, “The best choice for most boys is a regular girl. Remember, some pretty girls are coldhearted when it comes to boys. Don’t let them get to you.” HA! For the record, Alec is happily single, saying he is a little too young for actual dating. Call us in 10 years, cutie. And in the meantime, send us an IM — we have an open slot on our “Guys On Our IM” roster… [NY Post]
