Stunning supermodel, Ruslana Korshunova, from Kazakhstan fell to her death from her 9th floor apartment in Manhattan. Initial reports point to suicide. However, nobody has a clue right now on why she took to suicide, if this was a case of suicide. Ruslana Korshunova was only 20 years old. Is it always true that the beautiful die young?

Ruslana Korshunova

Ruslana Korshunova was famous for her trademark flowing long hair and green eyes and had appeared on the cover of premier fashion magazines, Vogue and Elle and had also appeared in many print advertisements namely Vera Wang, DKNY and Marc Jacobs, and catwalked for major labels as well.

Whatever it was that caused Ruslana Korshunova’s suicide and death, let’s pray for her and her family and friends. May she rest in peace.

Diminutive actor, Verne Troyer, has sued leading celebrity gossip website, TMZ.com, for posting online Verne Troyer sex tape which Verne recorded with his girlfriend at that time, Renae Shrider.

Actor Verne Troyer

Dwarf actor Verne Troyer, 39, who stands at only 2ft 8in, and famous for his role in Austin Powers as Mini-Me and could be seen recently in Mike Myer’s The Love Guru movie as an ice hockey coach, claims that the sex tape was stolen and posted online without his knowledge or permission.

Verne Troyer is also seeking an injunction from having the sex video posted online or distributed. I guess Verne has to take a leaf out of Edison Chen‘s book to “copyright” his sex tape.

I seriously do not understand why some people have this fantasy of taking sex videos and sex photos of themselves. Does everyone have a secret fantasy to be a superstar porn actor? Homemade porn videos and sex photos could fall into the wrong hands anytime and published on the web for all to see and there’s no one to be blamed but thyself!

It is not only celebrities or high ranking officials [hint: Chua Soi Lek] that fall victim to such unwarranted publicity but even ordinary people [hint: Tammy] will be subjected to such humiliation and invasion of privacy if they have a sex tape hot enough.

The best solution is not to get involved in any sex tape recording or photo shoot at all. After all, prevention is better than cure. However, people never learn. So expect to see more homemade sex tapes and photos. Today may be Edison Chen and Verne Troyer, tomorrow will be someone else.

After all is said, I too would love to watch this Verne Troyer sex tape! Hahaha!
