TMZ is reporting that someone is shopping around nude (naked) photos of Shaun White reportedly taken at a hotel party in 2009.
Now, at least two of the pics have surfaced … one featuring Shaun making out with a hot blonde chick in front of other people … with their clothes on. . . The other pic shows Shaun with the same woman — sans clothes — in the middle of a missionary-style embrace on a bed … with Shaun grinning at the direction of the camera.
So far it appears no one has paid for them. Oddly, we’re not really looking forward to these photos again. Are you?
Sexting little strumpet Scarlett Johanson has teamed up with Neffand Zappos to design some new beanies to raise money for the City of Hope.
“I helped create this Neff Beanie with the hope that every purchase might make a cancer patient feel a bit more comfortable during his/her treatments,” explained Scarlett, “and look cool and be cozy all the while. The beanies are eco friendly too, so they’re as nice to the earth as they are to the person wearing them,” says Johansson.
For every Scarlett beanie that is sold (they’re only available on Zappos), Neff will donate one beanie to a City of Hope cancer patient/survivor. If and when they give away 5,000 beanies they’ll then begin donating 10 percent of the sale of each beanie until they reach a $20,000 donation after which they’ll just keep the rest. Sounds like Neff is covering their asses in addition to cancer patients heads on this one. For the official word, follow the jump. [click to continue…]
Rubbing elbows with celebrities and their families – including Holly Madison, David Copperfield, ‘Pawn Stars’ Rick Harrison, Alison Victoria, pro NASCAR driver Taylor Barton, Tillman the Skateboarding Dog, Travis Pastrana, Sal Masekela, Mike “Rooftop” Escamilla, Rodney Mullen, Mike Vallely, Ricardo Laguna, and actor, comedian Rob Riggle – guests came together to support the Tony Hawk Foundation’s mission to build free, quality public skateparks in low-income areas nationwide. Attendees enjoyed the family-oriented action-sports festival with games, great food, one-of-a-kind auction items, and lots of giveaways. . . “It was our best Vegas event by far, thanks to Red Rock, Ben Harper and the level of talent on the ramp,” said Tony Hawk. “We also had some truly unique auction items that helped to raise good money for more skateparks. My kids had a blast!”
The surfboard, made of white fiberglass and sporting a blue wave design covered with sponsor stickers throughout, is currently on view in the museum’s first-floor Artifact Walls. It has a rubber pad at the back of the board for traction and three removable fins along the bottom. . . “Over the past 20 years, his approach to surfing as a professional and dedicated philanthropist has changed how people surf and view the sport,” said Jane Rogers, curator, at the museum.
That means in a way both Al Merrick and Jake Burton are in that museum as well. It’s a Smithsonian trifecta.
This year at the annual Tony Hawk Foundation Standup For Skateparks benefit at former Source-Interlink owner Ron Burkle’s Beverly Hills estate, T-Hawk, Shaun White, Lincoln Ueda, Mitchie Brusco, Matt Hoffman, and Bucky Lasek put on a skate demo, the Black Keys played a private show and the whole gig raised $755,000 to help build free public skateparks in low-income neighborhoods.
“It was our best event by far,” said Tony Hawk. “The auction items were one-of-a-kind, and the skate demo was one of the best sessions I have ever witnessed (or taken part in). The Black Keys were the icing on the cake—the crowd was in awe.”

Not to beat any dead horses, but four-time ASP World Surfing Champion Stephanie Gilmore is also in the ESPN The Magazine Body Issue naked. And while we hate to play favorites, Stephie wins this round. But now we’re done. We promise. . .Then on second thought, Stephie better not stay out in the sun too long or she’s likely to get a rosy hodge.
ESPN: The Magazine has posted a few teaser photos of naked athletes from their Body Issue that hits news stands on Friday, October 7, 2011. And Gretchen Bleiler is not only in the magazine, but on one of the covers as well.
“The nude thing is interesting at first. You’re like ‘Really I’m going to just take it off.’ It just gets more and more comfortable. Especially on a day like today,” Bleiler says. “It was nuking out there and I felt bad for everyone who had clothes on. I was the one who was lucky on a day like today. It’s a huge honor to be grouped in with some of the most amazing and skilled athletes in the world. Celebrating Men, women. Every different kind of body, every different kind of sport and showing that everything is beautiful in a very athletic way. I want to be strong and I want to be badass and I think we accomplished that.”
We’d have to agree. Mrs. Hotel is looking fit, especially when you flash back to her first pinup outing in FHM. Follow the jump for the video and magazine cover.
All we can really say about these Louie Vito photos from ESPN The Magazine’s Body Issue is that he looks pretty fit and that it could have been so much worse.
Shaun White has a new flavor of gum according to a story in the New York Times, and sadly, it’s not called “tangy ginger sweat.”
Whitemint, a new flavor of chewing gum by Stride, the Kraft Foods brand, is named for the athlete and features his likeness on the package. White, who appeared briefly in a commercial for a Stride line called 2.0 that was first shown in June, stars in a new commercial for Whitemint scheduled to begin on Monday.
And as only a packaged good marketing person could say: “some consumers may derive “emotional benefits” from chewing gum affiliated with the popular athlete.” Is that even possible?
