Reported today is Miss USA Tara Conner admitting to using cocaine and being a functioning alcoholic.

"Cocaine was one of the drugs that I did use. It's hard to look back at that," she tells PEOPLE in its new issue. "I was an equal-opportunity [user] – I would try anything once."

I'm thinking she tried it more then once. It really seems like she was using both alcohol and drugs and stopped because she got caught. Still though, it does sound like she's in step 6 or 7, which is acceptance of one's own faults.

Actually I just made that up.

Seriously though. Good for her.

Ummmm....

I guess Daniel Radcliffe is in some play called Equus in London. And he's going to be fully nude.

From Wikipedia: Equus

Shaffer was inspired to write his play when he heard of a crime involving a teenage boy's apparently senseless mutilation of horses. He then set out to construct a fictional account of what might have caused the incident, without knowing any of the details of the crime. The play is posited as a kind of postmodern detective story.

The boy, who worked part-time in the stables where the attack occurred, would take a certain horse out for occasional night rides. Those jaunts functioned as the set piece for an elaborate ritual of exaltation constructed by his anguished psyche.

And

Equus is to be recreated in 2007 with Harry Potter co-stars Richard Griffiths and Daniel Radcliffe cast in the leading roles. The play will be directed by Thea Sharrock, and will open in London in February at the Gielgud Theatre. With its famous cast member, it has caused controversy, as the role of Alan Strang is required to appear naked onstage. [1] However, Radcliffe states that he wants to remain true to the role.

Sounds like one freaky story. Giddy-up!

Paris Hilton is upset about all her personal stuff being sold. She didn't really seem to mind the sex videos and all that, but the photos and films of her doing cocaine and smoking pot must have put her over the top.

Paris Hilton filed a federal lawsuit Monday, seeking to shut down a Web site that displays personal photos, videos, diaries, and other belongings once kept at a storage facility.

The Web site was launched last week claiming the items were auctioned off after Hilton neglected to pay the Los Angeles-area storage facility. It also promises visitors who pay a fee of $39.97 access to Hilton's passport, medical records and other legal documents.

In her lawsuit, Hilton said she put her possessions in storage two years ago when she and her sister, Nicky, moved out of a house that had been burglarized.

Yeah, she's pissed and yet the people who sold her stuff got like $10 million dollars for it. Go figure.

I saw these today and you know what? Jennifer Lopez or Jenny from the Block has still got it.

It's not the famous caboose in any of these photos, but her face that's the focal point. You can't deny it...she's a beautiful woman.

A few more.

Yes, I said it.

It's pretty funny and wasn't what I expected. It's on the Nationwide site right now.

This of course prompted an office discussion of Kevin Federline and Britney Spears with her new boyfriend issues. Most of the conversation was about Brit getting a new boyfriend (as reported in the tabloids) and how they broke up only 2 days later.

The most biting comment was "She's like that dirty tramp at a party. Everyone wants to have sex with her, but nobody wants it KNOWN they had sex with her."

Ok. It was me.
