"Counterfeit condoms a problem in China"

Eeek! That is a problem! Read the article accompanying this headline….after the jump.

Counterfeit condoms a problem in China

The spread of counterfeit condoms is rampant in China, state media reports.

Police are currently looking for as many as a million knock-off prophylactics produced by an illegal factory in central Hunan province, The Times of London said Wednesday.

Four people were arrested at the factory which was distributing illicit condoms nationwide that provided little or no protection and carried the risk of both pregnancy and disease.

Authorities say when they entered the factory they saw bare-chested employees using vegetable oil to lubricate the condoms and putting them into fiber bags without any sterilization.

Since March the factory has turned out more than two million condoms labeled as "Jisson, Durex. Rough Rider, Six Sense and Love Card."

China's condom market is the fourth-largest in the world.

Speidi Vs. Roker: Round 2!!!

Yeah, it has been awhile since they have pulled a big television stunt for attention.

Getting lazy are we, Speidi?

The dynamic duo known as Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag, are slated to appear on The Today Show next Monday. Whether they will be squaring off against Al Roker again remains to be seen, but knowing them as we do, we wouldn't put it past them to REQUEST sitting down with Al, just for the attention.

NYC forecast for Monday - A fierce crapstorm in the 8 o'clock hour!

Oh, in case you were wondering, Speidi does have a legitimate reason for being on the show. They are pimping out their new book, How to Be Famous: Our Guide to Looking the Part, Playing the Press, and Becoming a Tabloid Fixture.

It's sure to be a classic!

We knew something was going on!

After those creeptastic pictures of Sammy Sosa hit the web everyone's been wondering what the fuck is going on with his face.

On Wednesday the former Cubs player finally explained the reason behind his whiter appearance saying: "It's a bleaching cream that I apply before going to bed and whitens my skin some."

Some!? We think it's done a little bit more than some! Try a whole lot!

Sosa's also using the bleaching cream as a moisturizer and is reportedly in talks to market it.

After seeing these pictures, we think it may be a tough sale to hawk it as just a moisturizer!

What Recession??? It's Ovah!

Despite so many people still out of work and the economy in the state it's in, it seems there's still a lot of money to be thrown around.

At least when it comes to art.

Wednesday night, Sotheby's auctioned off several post-war and contemporary art pieces bringing in over $130 MILLION!

In fact, Andy Warhol's piece, 200 One Dollar Bills, sold for $43.7 million. The 1962 piece was last sold by Sotheby's over 20 years ago for $300,000.

Talk about a good investment!

The lucky winner of that piece last night actually came from a phone bid, surpassing the estimated $12 million they thought it would sell for.

And another bidder paid $6.1 million for Warhol's 1965 Self Portait.

Other artists' work also brought in huge numbers, but the night definitely belonged to Warhol.

As for the bidders, they included some rich names like fashion designer Valentino Garavani and jeweler Laurence Graff.

The rich just keep getting richer!

Courtney Love Is Releasing A New Album - Finally!

Posted: 12 Nov 2009 04:52 PM PST

We didn't even know she was still working on one!

Courtney Love is releasing Nobody's Daughter in January, her first album since 2004's America's Sweetheart, but she's going back to her roots and releasing it under her old band's name, Hole.

"Wherever I lay my head is Hole. It's four letters. It is one of the best band names in fucking history, if I do say so myself. For a while I was a little embarrassed it was maybe vulgar, but at least it's not phallic. It's H-O-L-E, it's a great band name, and it's mine."

Hole hasn't had an album out since 1998's Celebrity Skin and the new band includes Courtney and guitarist Micko Larkin. Nobody's Daughter was influenced by David Bowie, Pink Floyd and '80s goth, Courtney reveals - and the underlying themes of the album are greed, vengeance and feminism.

Courtney stumbles through this explanation:

"There's a lot of maternal instinct on there, and probably my favorite lyric is: 'Nobody's daughter, she's never was, she never will be beholden to anyone. She cannot kill. You don't understand how evil we really are.' I don't even know what that really means, but I know it's something to do with my daughter and it's also to do with me."

She still sounds so effed up to us!

Are U looking forward to Courtney's album?

MJ's Marriage Certificate Up For Grabs

Looks like another person trying to ca$$$h in on The King of Pop's death.

The original marriage certificate issued to Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley, from when they wed in the Dominican Republic in 1994, will be sold at auction in January.

Phillip Weiss, who is auctioning off the piece of paper, says "when you have an item that combines his name and legend with the Presley name and legend, their marriage certificate no less, with both of their signatures on it, you've got something that's almost impossible to predict what it will bring at auction."

Wonder how much someone will shell out for this???

Jordan's Cage Fighter Boyfriend Doing His Own Reality TV

Looks like someone is easily influenced!

The boyfriend of Britain's biggest famewhore, Katie Price, will star in his own TV series, Alex Reid: The Fight of His Life, on Bravo.

We hope that does not infiltrate into America!

The show, which will feature six hour-long episodes and a three-hour finale, will follow the cross-dresser as he prepares for a title fight against World Champion Tom 'Kong' Watson.

"I'm over the moon to have been given this opportunity to do what I love most," said Alex. "There will be no glitz and no glamour - for me it's just business."

Riiiight.

Reid will learn different fighting techniques in preparation for the big event, including the art of "drunken" fighting, which is confusing your opponent into dropping their guard.

So, that's how he handles Katie!

"I can't wait to throw myself into learning new skills and bringing something new to the octagon. No doubt there'll be blood, sweat and frustrations along the way but I just want to get stuck in," he continued.

Considering his main squeeze, he probably gets stuck in pretty often!

Lots of luck, d-bag!

This is HORRIBLE!

A young man who was a contestant on the hit competition show Wipeout has died after suffering a stroke. The 33 year old graduate of USC was said to have injured himself while performing a stunt on the show.

The man, Tom Sparks, was quickly rushed to a local hospital for further examination. He was later transferred to Cedars Sinai Medical Center, where doctors performed several brain surgeries.

Sadly, the doctors found that the damage was too extreme and he couldn't be saved. He died on Nov. 5th.

Awful!

We hope ABC is ready for a MAJOR lawsuit!
