Exclusive Spoilers For Donald Trump's Celebrity Apprentice 3 (with photos)

2009-10-17T23:53:46Z

The Donald wanted to keep the cast for "Celebrity Apprentice 3" a secret , but when you have a major pro wrestling star, a WWE Diva - Playboy Cover Girl, Ozzy's outspoken wife, a disgraced and impeached former Governor of Illinois, a girl who just wants to have fun, a top New York baseball player whose excesses in life made him a tragic figure, all this and Bret Michaels, too ... filming a commercial for the show in NYC's Meatpacking District in the middle of the day ... people tend to notice!

Donald Trump's third edition of Celebrity Apprentice has a most eclectic cast. Bill Goldberg, Maria Kanellis, Sharon Osbourne, Rod Blagojevich, Cyndi Lauper, Darryl Strawberry, Bret Michaels, comedian Carol Leifer, actress Holly Robinson Peete, Olympic Gold Medal Swimmer Summer Sanders, and Aussie Celeb Chef (does that mean he cooks celebrities?) Curtis Stone are those who are vying for the title of "The Celebrity Apprentice" this season.

The show starts shooting on Sunday, but our spies tell us the pressure is already on, as The Donald has chosen Monday's taping as "fund raising day" for the contestants. The contestants were told, and sworn to secrecy (ain't no secrets from the Hustle!) to see who they could have lined up in New York City on Monday to help raise money (for charity, obviously ... or hey, maybe for NBC, you never know). The contestants were told "cash or credit cards accepted."

Uber-busty Internet Sensation Denise Milani went back home to Eastern Europe for a Summer vacation, and went partying with her younger cousin. We're not sure what's in the water over there, but we'd like to import whatever it is by the jug.

No jug jokes, please.

Well, maybe just one.

Two Milanis walk into a bar ...

WHO GETS HUSTLED?

Ken Hoffman of THE HOUSTON CHRONICLE profiled former WWE Diva Torrie Wilson, and the bodacious bootilicious busty blonde bombshell from Boise provided some interesting comments in the article.

Torrie Wilson, the former World Wrestling Entertainment diva and current owner of the Jaded clothes shop in the Market Street shopping district in The Woodlands, technically finished second to Lou Diamond Phillips on the NBC reality series I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!

It was a close vote.

But she lost.

And she's never felt more like a winner.

“I was a huge winner!” she said. “I went down to Costa Rica as the least-known person on the show. I made it all the way to the end. I was in that jungle for 28 days, the whole month of June. I showed people who I was. I worked hard and competed hard, and I made it to the final two. My charity, Disabled American War Veterans, received a lot of money because I lasted so long. I discovered a lot about myself, I proved myself, I made some good friends, and I came out of that jungle feeling great about myself mentally and physically.”

Along the way, she outlasted and survived competition from John Salley, Patti Blagojevich, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, two of the Baldwin brothers (not Alec), train wreck Janice Dickinson and really awful singer Sanjaya Malakar.

OK, it wasn't the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Wilson became good buddies with former NBA player Salley, who persuaded her to become a vegetarian.

Her other close friend on the show was Patti Blagojevich, wife of reeling former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who's facing corruption charges and possible jail time.

“I really got close to Patti,” Wilson said. “I was expecting her to be an awful woman, a real bulldog. Like most people, all I knew about her was that recorded phone call that got out in the public. She is not a nice person on that recording. But she won me over. She turned out to be a wonderful person, and I really feel for what she's going through.”

Before she walked through her door back home in The Woodlands, offers for more entertainment projects were flying her way. That's what being on 16 hours of prime-time TV will do for you. Even if you're not wearing makeup and you look nothing like a glamorous wrestling diva and there's a disgusting snake slithering all over you.

“Yes, there is a lot of interest in different things for me. Some of them surprise me,” she said.

Like being invited to play in the World Series of Poker. She didn't survive as long in a Las Vegas casino as she did in the Costa Rican jungle.

“I'm not much of a poker player. I lasted about four hours,” she said.

The project she wants to do most is a workout video for “normal women” and children.

“'I've already got the video planned in my head. I want to do workout videos that housewives can do at home with their kids. It will be a back-to-basics video. I'm looking for locations — maybe I'll do it in a warehouse or in my home — not an expensive gym with complicated equipment. Physical fitness is a love of mine.”

Then there's Hollywood and acting.

“There are opportunities coming my way. While I love being just a regular girl and running a clothing store, I have to think about these opportunities. I don't want to pass on everything and then kick myself a few years from now.

“There are some acting possibilities. I love being in front of a camera. But there are some things about trying to be an actress that scare me. One, I would have to live in Los Angeles, and I really like living here in The Woodlands. ... I pursued the acting thing before, and wrestling was a barrier. They only thought of me as a former wrestler. They didn't appreciate that eight years in wrestling was great practice for acting. It's live television every week, and I had to do everything in one take.

“Now it's different. On the reality series, I received support from everybody, not just wrestling fans. I'm not just an ex-wrestler anymore.”

Larry Flynt's people try to defend the Nancy Benoit photo spread in "Hustler"

2008-01-13T18:35:36Z

Saw an amazing explanation by Larry Flynt's editorial staff, defending "Hustler" magazine's controversial decision to published nude pictures taken of Chris Benoit's murdered wife. The pictures, taken off a video shot almost 25 years ago, shows one of the most gorgeous women you'll ever see in your life. But was it right for "Hustler" to post these pics? Can you imagine if Flynt, or Bob Guccione, or Hef got their mits on some nude pics of Nicole Brown Simpson? Can you just picture the uproar? No matter how hot she may have been, there's something macabre about this.

But the explanation was classic, worthy of review. Here's the story: http://www.wrestlingnewsdesk.com/WND/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=566&Itemid=1

I don't know. While I must admit, Nancy Benoit was amazingly beautiful, especially at 19, checking out her nude pictures made me feel a little uncomfortable. What say YOU?
