Then in a RIPTIDE EXCLUSIVE we found out that Paris Hilton's body guard ended up smacking the DJ upside the head first, allegedly.
The ShamWow guy got bit by a prostitute and beat her silly.
A-Rod fell in love with a prostitute, and would never lay a hand on her.
Elvis Crespo unleashed his snake on a plane.
Then, Artist Romero Britto got arrested for a DIU.

A strip club got busted for prostitution charges, and at least one of the strippers found the whole thing to be hilarious.
