Leighton Meester, also known as Blair Waldorf in the hit teen show, Gossip Girl, has not only sparked attention for the designer clothes she dons, but also for the clothes she takes off. A sex tape of the star leaked on the internet and it already holds a bid that reached $1M.
The sex tape was said to be taken when Meester was still in high school. In the video, the star was performing a playful striptease for her boyfriend while they were fooling around. Kevin Blatt, the dealer of the controversial Paris Hilton sex video, said that he was shocked at the number of people interested to get a hold of Meester’s sex video.
The show that Meester stars in (which also has a great soundtrack that features Tom DeLonge’s Angels and Airwaves) is known for its risqué content. With this news, it seems like life imitates art for the actress. Despite her sex video going viral, Leighton Meester still continues to attract more fans with her acting antics in Gossip Girl.
The whole scenario seems oxymoronic for while critics and fans alike praise for being known as a talented actress rather than a party-going disruptive personality like other teen stars of her generation, her sex video has not done anything destructive to Meester’s career. In fact, it has only presented her to a wider set of audience and not only to the teen market.
While talks about the videos continue to heat up, Meester’s camp has no say about the issue.
Korobov wins easily – again
Posted on: June 22, 2009
Matvey Korobov is one of the most promising prospects at middleweight. And while he only has 6 professional fights under his belt, his pedigree as an amateur can not be questioned. Many are watching this kid thoroughly and I think that the he is the real deal. Here is a small summary of his last fight:
Blue chip middleweight prospect Matvey Korobov (6-0, 5 KOs) went the distance for the first time as a professional but easily outpointed Loren Myers (7-3, 2 KOs) of Fresno, Calif.
Korobov, 26, was a two-time world amateur champion and 2008 Russian Olympian before relocating to Florida to join his parents, who had moved to America in 1998 and left their son in Russia to continue training in a Russian sports academy with an eye on the Olympics.
Top Rank and manager Cameron Dunkin signed Korobov after the Olympics and view him as their best prospect.
Korobov hit Myers with everything throughout the fight, but Myers showed a very good chin in absorbing the blows and never looked like he was on the verge of going down.
Korobov will be back in action quickly. Top Rank has scheduled him to fight June 27 in Atlantic City, N.J., on the undercard of Juan Manuel Lopez’s junior featherweight title.
