Former wrestler, Predator actor, and Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura is about to add another notch under his ever-widening belt: TV Show host for truTV:
Jesse Ventura will be working on a new conspiracy-theory series…Ventura will travel the country, investigating cases and getting input from believers and skeptics before passing judgment on a theory's validity.
A roving gang of reporters cornered Jesse Ventura at
ALIEN MOVIES: WHERE NATIONAL LEADERS ARE MADE "Sonny Landham … the man who played Billy Bear in '48 Hours' and was killed by an alien in 'Predator' … pulls no punches in his newest role: Libertarian challenger to a man known for political toughness, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. … The cast of 1987's 'Predator' featured two future state governors: Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jesse Ventura. But the prospects of winning office seem far more remote for Landham."
Yesterday, attentive MollyGood commenters called bullshit on Heidi Klum's recent Victoria's Secret ads where she claims to own the title 'The Body' in the modeling industry, as that nickname was first given to Elle MacPherson. Today, the Lowdown tackles this thrilling controversy:
"We saw that and were like, Oh my god!" Elle Macpherson Intimates spokeswoman Melissa Edwards told Lowdown yesterday. "We were initially flabbergasted."
Now it's a battle of the supermodel moguls — Macpherson, the 42-year-old, 6-foot Aussie mother of two, against Klum, the 33-year-old, 5-foot-9 mother of two (with one on the way).
Elle's flack, Edwards, invoked the 1986 Time cover and added: "We have numerous press clippings in the office referring to her as 'The Body.' Everything from Harper's Bazaar to Vogue to the recent Sports Illustrated calls her that. In terms of public record, that name belongs to Elle."
Macpherson markets her own skin-care line, "Elle Macpherson The Body," along with a lingerie brand and a fitness video titled "The Body Workout." Klum — who was once called "The Body Two," in deference to Elle — is a relative Heidi-come-lately, and didn't hit the United States until the late 1990s. Both Klum and Macpherson have been favorites of the Sports Illustrated annual swimsuit issue, and both appeared in the mag's latest.
Again, as a commenter pointed out, if you throw the most politically influential 'Body,' former Minnesota Governor and professional wrestler, Jesse 'The Body' Ventura, into this debate, well, you've got a regular clusterfuck of 'Bodies.' At least I don't think he'll be coming out with a line of products named in his honor anytime soon. He might, however, be the definitive winner if this argument was decided in a mud wrestling match.
