… EL BESO DEL ADIOS/KISS BESSEMER GOODBYE’ Tencha Ávila’s one-act comic drama is about a young Mexican-American woman who is the first in her family to graduate from college. It’s given warmth and life by a talented multinational cast. But the real theme, racism and national identity, is explored all too simplistically (2:00).

… I am truly very sorry for the grief I have caused them. I hope one day they can find it in their hearts to forgive me.”
According to US media reports, Bullock has now moved out of the couple’s Southern California home.
Meanwhile, a photographer who reportedly worked with McGee on a raunchy photo shoot accused the model of having a split personality that “flips instantly” from angel to devil.
“She leaves a trail of horror behind her,” the photographer, who said he did not want to be named for fear of retribution, told CBS News.com.
“She goes from this incredibly sweet, warm person to Satan.
“She makes all her money from sexually derived things,” the photographer said. “I don’t know if she’s a prostitute, but she certainly flirts the edge.”

Photos: Spitzer Scandal One Year Later | Spitzer’s ‘Girl’ Ashley Dupre
Reports say 24-year-old Ashley Dupre had to lay down in a setting surrounded by candles for the shoot. That’s when a few strands of her hair caught on fire due to hairspray.
Dupre’s hairstylist rushed over and put out the flames, according to a People.com source.
Dupre was reportedly not hurt by the flames.
Spitzer was forced to resign in disgrace in 2008 after getting caught in the prostitution scandal that shattered his corruption-fighting, straight-arrow image.

The artwork, by Sofia Maldonado, a Puerto Rican-Cuban muralist, stretches 92 feet by 12 feet along 215 West 42nd and has drawn a steady stream of debate since it officially went up March 2. A local television report sums up the negative reaction:
Clearly not everyone is into this public art event, sponsored by the Times Square Alliance.
But many have voiced their support online. Writing on Post Pomo Nuyorican Homo, Marisol LeBron defends the mural against some charges levied in the above video: “The most striking thing to me about the video and article was the conflation of working-class/poor women of color with ‘prostitutes.’ That people were able to argue that these women with their ‘long finger nails’ were sex workers of Times Square’s heyday was really complicated and problematic.”

The photographer, who feared retribution from McGee if his name was released, said he also knows Jesse James and would not be surprised if the McGee and James had crossed paths.
He doesn’t however believe that the two had a sexual affair, but admits he doesn’t know James well enough to have an inside track. “He’s a genuine guy,” he said of the tattooed Monster Garage star who married Bullock in 2005.
He had less pleasant things to say about McGee, who dished to “In Touch” magazine on Wednesday that she and James had a twice weekly sexual affair while Bullock was busy shooting “The Blind Side.”
“She makes all her money from sexually derived things,” the photographer said. “I don’t know if she’s a prostitute, but she certainly flirts the edge.”
McGee does work as a stripper, according to Radar Online, which reported she was booted from the Hustler Club and now works at Pure Platinum in San Diego.

Sandra Bullock Jesse James split? That’s the question cropping up suddenly after Bullock’s husband allegedly cheated on “The Blindside” Oscar winner with Michelle “Bombshell” McGee.
McGee, a mother of two who has worked as a stripper at several San Diego clubs, has been allegedly having an affair with James for at least 11 months, a friend of McGee’s told the New York Daily News.
“She told me that Jesse’s marriage to Sandra Bullock was for publicity, and that’s why he did Donald Trump’s show, Celebrity Apprentice. He never called on Sandra for money or influence because their marriage was a sham,” said Danielle Dee Madrano, owner of the adult web site SocalGlamourGirls.com.
Madrano also called the Bullock-James relationship a “sham” and just for publicity.
James, 40, was married twice prior to Bullock, including a two-year marriage to porn star Janine Lindemulder, the Daily News is reporting. The couple have a daughter named Sunny.

Michelle McGee is the woman throwing herself between Oscar winning actress Sandra Bullock and her husband Jesse James. The self-proclaimed bombshell and model is a tattooed mother of two who works as a stripper.
The woman sold her story to a tabloid magazine detailing her affair with the married man. Her website is full of provocative photos inviting those who love big busted gals to participate in online chat sessions. She claims she met James while his wife was filming her Oscar winning role in Austin, Texas. The ever-conscious woman asked James about his wife before proceeding with any sexual activity according to her. Her claim is the man said his wife did not live with him and he did not walk to discuss it further.
The 24 year old McGee has turned over evidence of her 11 month affair as well. Of course, like another adulterer we know, James sent his stripper mistress explicit text messages that she kept as proof of her affair.

CS: I wanted to ask about Andy’s daughter Dominik playing his daughter in the movie; did he have any problem with his daughter playing a stripper and doing that stuff?
De Felitta: No, they’re such a family of professionals. No, he was delighted when I was interested in her playing the part. He was always very cool about telling me, “Look, this is totally a director’s decision.” I read her a few times, but I also loved the idea of his actual daughter doing it just because I thought it would be a great vibe for the movie as an experience too, and she’s a really good actress. So he had no issues at all although he didn’t bother to come to the set on the day that we did the strip club scene. (Laughs) But they’re pros.

The New York State Commission on Public Integrity said Paterson had not intended to pay for the tickets, costing $2,125 in total, in violation of gift rules for public officials.
Paterson is charged with violating two subsections of the gift ban, each of which carries a fine of up to $40,000. He is also charged with violating three sections of the ethics code, including one that carries a $10,000 penalty and prohibits the governor from using his office to secure unwarranted privileges.
New York’s first black governor, Paterson has denied any wrongdoing in both the controversy over the tickets and the domestic assault case. He has also dismissed continued calls for his resignation. He took office in March 2008 when he succeeded Eliot Spitzer, who resigned amid a prostitution scandal.
