Heidi Fleiss Airs Her Dirty Laundry

SimchaMay 19, 2008 //

Being a single gal is fun and can even allow you to get a little extra freaky! But sometimes the pendulum swings the other way — not knowing where your next piece of ass will come from can leave you in a sad dry spell, and even the professionals aren’t immune. Heidi Fleiss, the infamous Hollywood madam, had it all. And by “it” we mean every A-list actor in LA. Not only did she score the top booty, they paid her well to do it too! At the height of her career she had Marlon Brando, Jack Nicholson, Charlie Sheen, and a Porsche. In 1997, she was thrown into an unsexy pair of handcuffs, put in jail, and left penniless for her escort service. Now, at 42, the former working girl has opened her own shop in podunk Pahrump, NV. Strangely enough, even though prostitution is legal in Nevada, she’s not putting the rump in Pahrump. Instead of a ring of call girls, she’s in charge of the spin cycles at her little launderette cleverly called “Dirty Laundry.” She’s cleaning clothes and cleaning up her act while living in a mobile home with 20 parrots she saved from a closing pet store. “I love those birds more than I’ve ever loved any man,” Heidi said in a recent interview. “It’s been two years since I had sex and I don’t care if I ever do it again.” Sigh, we’ve all been through a sexless rough patch and it’s hard to pull yourself out — even if you’re the Madam Fleiss (and especially if you’re a crazy bird lady). But, Heidi, you just have to get back up on the man-horse and ride! Everyone in America knows you can do it. [NOTW]

    Happy Black Day!

    Catherine StrawnApril 14, 2008 //

    Think we have too many lame romantic holidays in the U.S.? Don’t visit South Korea. There, marketers have cooked up even more days to make single people feel bad about themselves. White Day, on March 14, is when men give gifts to women. (Local custom dictates that women give men presents on Valentine’s Day.) Black Day is today, and it’s when singles wear dark colors and commiserate over meals of black food, the favorite being Chinese-style noodles topped with a thick black bean paste sauce. Yum. If Valentine’s Day, White Day, and Black Day aren’t enough for you, there’s Green Day in August, but it hasn’t gotten much traction. Celebrating Green Day involves drinking cheap liquor from green bottles and walking in the woods. [Reuters] Keep reading »

    The Daily Squeeze: Marilyn Monroe On Her Knees, Guy Ritchie’s Diet, And Married Couples

    Catherine StrawnApril 14, 2008 //
  • A sex tape featuring Marilyn Monroe giving an unidentified man a blow job has been sold to a New York businessman for $1.5 million. Back in the ’60s, then-FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had agents spend weeks attempting to figure out who the man was — if it was John F. Kennedy or Robert F. Kennedy — to no avail. Whoever he is, he obviously knew he was being taped and kept his mug out of the shot. [NY Post]

    Where The Boys At? Um, Not On The East Coast

    It looks like I’m living in the wrong city — and there is little to no chance I will be moving to LA…ever. Oh well, at least single people are in the majority these days. Woohoo! [The Boston Globe] Keep reading »

    High Blood Pressure And Marriage

    Catherine StrawnMarch 20, 2008 //

    Do you remember that Sex and the City episode where Samantha’s doctor tells her she might have developed breast cancer because of her “lifestyle choices” (being single and childless). Well, now there’s a study that says happily married adults have lower blood pressure than single people. Don’t take this as an edict to get married, though, because the unhappily married had even worse blood pressure than singles. And if you’re blood pressure’s that much of a problem, have your doc prescribe you something. [Reuters] Keep reading »

    Breakin’ up is hard to do, and like any other natural disaster, the aftermath is awful. You just don’t know what to do with your wreckage, but you gotta get back in business.

    Time Out Time Out!

    SimchaFebruary 7, 2008 //

    There’s only one thing I hate about being single: the constant stream of relationship advice I didn’t even ask for. I have a degree, plenty of relationship experience, a body that just won’t quit, and a tube of red lipstick — I am well equipped to survive in the wilderness that is the dating scene. Yet everyone wants to jump in on the action, from my married friends who mean well to magazine relationship experts. And, by the way, the advice is always the same: “Empower yourself so you can attract a man to latch onto.” The latest to dispense this advice is Time Out New York and their resident dating “expert” Julia Allison (you non-New Yorkers may recognize her as a talking head on CNN and Fox News). The magazine’s “Singles Issue” promises that if you let someone Photoshop and style you, you can attract a mate someday — all aspects of Allison’s marketing (yourself) plan. Other nuggets of advice after the jump. Keep reading »

    The Daily Squeeze: Aggression, Chicago Singles, And A Funny Song

    Catherine StrawnJanuary 16, 2008 //
  • Do you enjoy throwing left hooks as much as you like making love? A Vanderbilt University study showed that the brain processes aggression similarly to the way it responds to sex, food, and drugs. So, if you want the positive effects that come with lashing out, maybe take a kick-boxing class instead of punching your date. [Fox News ]
  • Chicago magazine is looking for eligible men and women to include in its annual singles issue. If you’re interesting, successful, and, of course, photogenic, hurry up and figure out which is your good side—the deadline to submit is March 10. [Chicago]
  • An odd song about “the lady’s bras” plays when you visit this . [The Lacemaker via NOTCOT]
