You don"t want to know about Lenny Dykstra"s twisted s*x life


Lenny Dykstra: Companion For Hire?

Its easy to score with former major league all-star Lenny Dykstra just pay him, he admitted on the radio Tuesday.

The former Mets center fielder who this week published a tell-all memoir about the shady side of pro baseball moonlights as a gigolo for elderly women, he revealed on the The Howard Stern Show.

Would you fk a woman your own age? Stern asked him.

If they paid me, he shot back.

Dykstra, 53, confessed on the show that geezers pay him for companionship and romantic dinner dates.But he refused to say whether they gave him cash for s*x.

One of the women, who is in her 80s, gets on his nerves because she always wants to stick her fing tongue down my throat, he told the shock jock.

Were talking about grandma. Youre talking about a fking gray bush, bro, Dykstra said.

The bigmouth baseball great doesnt prefer to go all the way with grannies because, their bones are brittle, he added.

In his new book, which was exclusively excerpted in The Post this week, Dykstra claims he would hire private eyes to dig up dirt on umpires so he could intimidate them at games.

He also admitted that he used Jack Nicholson as a wingman for picking up women and went on 10-day coke bender with actor Mickey Rourke.

But s*x may be his favorite vice, he said Tuesday.

I thought G*d put me on earth to entertain people on the baseball fieldbut He actually put me on earth to get women off, he said.

Im like Picasso, the sports legend bragged of his bedroom prowess.

Dykstra, a member of the World Series champion 1986 Mets, also boasted about the number of women he slept with while on the road and while traveling on his private plane.

The plane became my drug. For instance, youre sitting around in your hotel suite fking bored, [saying] Where do you want to go? I spun the globe [and] wanted trip to Monaco, he told Stern.

I was trying to tap that Princess Stephanie. I just wanted some royalty on the belt, he said.

In the radio interview, Dykstra also dished about doing time in jail, partying with Charlie Sheen and oral s*x, calling it, Artwork, man.

Asked about his bad habit of saying too much in interviews and books, he insisted hes just an honest guy.I speak the truth and sometimes people dont like the truth, he said.

Dykstra was a three-time All-Star and also made it to the World Series with the Phillies

Pottermore Reveals New Images, Details From "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child"


Evanna Lynch sorted on Pottermore

Ahead of the first previews for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, a stage production set to open in Londons West End in July, Pottermore has released some new information on the eighth Harry Potter story including brand-new images of a grown-up Harry, Ginny and their son, Albus Severus Potter.

Previews begin at the Palace Theatre in one week, on June 7.

Cursed Child takes place 19 years after the final Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The new photos reveal actor Jamie Parker as the onetime boy who lived, as well as Sam Clemmett as Albus and Poppy Miller as Ginny.

In addition to the images, the new Pottermore post includes observations from Potter creator J.K. Rowling, who said of Parkers transformation into her titular character: He simply is Harry now. Theres a kind of relief in watching him, he gets it so right.

On continuing the Harry Potter tale, Parker remarked, Theyre just iconic. These are stories that people have lived with for their whole lives, theyve grown up with and now theyre adults rejoining the tale, picking it up where they left off and Im one of them.

He added: In a sense, you dont need more than the scar and the glasses, you kind of go, There it is, and I dont really know how to put it into words. Its just immeasurably exciting and I cant wait to show it to people.

Rowling also shared her thoughts on Miller as Ginny Weasley Potter: I think a lot of people would like to have Poppys Ginny for a mother. Kind and cool, exactly as I imagined her.

But given how tight-lipped the Potter mastermind was on the subject of Albus, we can be sure that Harrys son will be the catalyst for plenty of drama:

Theres much I could say about Sam-as-Albus, but wed be into spoiler territory so quickly Ill just say we couldnt have cast better.

Throughout the week, Pottermore plans to roll out new images of the other characters from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. What are your predictions for the next revealed wizards?

Red Cross Apologizes For Pool Safety Poster, "View" Reacts | The View

On Sunday night, Greys Anatomy actor and activist Jesse Williams won a humanitarian award at the BET Awards, and stole the show.

If you havent seen the video or read the transcript, you should. It was one of the most lucid and heartfelt critiques of systemic racism, institutional violence, cultural appropriation and exploitation, and a love letter to black women who have spent their lifetimes dedicated to nurturing everyone before themselves. We can and will do better for you.

Weve been floating this country on credit for centuries, yo. And were done watching, and waiting while this invention called whiteness uses and abuses us. Burying black people out of sight and out of mind, while extracting our culture, our dollars, our entertainment like oil black gold. Ghettoizing and demeaning our creations then stealing them. Gentrifying our genius and then trying us on like costumes before discarding our bodies like rinds of strange fruit. The thing is, though, the thing is, that just because were magic doesnt mean were not real.

It was electrifying. He was calm, poised, focused, unflinching and light-skinned.

Of the millions of conversations that happened online, in solidarity and in complaint, one that caught my own light-skinned eye was a heartfelt exchange about whats called colorism and the easier time that people of lighter hues have in the world. Did Jesse Williams, a light-skinned man, have the credentials to speak this way?

Eve Ewing, a sociologist who studies race, racism and inequality in the public schools, and who uses her Twitter feed to hold difficult conversations about race, took the opportunity to discuss colorism. The conversation is uncomfortable because it threatens to divide us, says Ewing, even within families. She posted data showing that darker skinned students fare worse in schools and are disproportionately punished than their light skinned peers.

Light-skinned people also get shorter prison sentences. There is also some nascent data on colorism and how it may play out in hiring situations, she says. Bottom line, we end up better educated, offered better jobs and yes, occasionally win awards.

These are the sorts of implicit biases that are so deeply ingrained that they are hard to surface. But these difficult conversations help us remember that there is more than one type of black person, she says.

The key is embracing the privilege openly, which is exactly what Jesse Williams has always done. And it doesnt undermine our ability to do justice work.

Spaghetti western star Bud Spencer dies


Bud Spencer ist tot: Sein letztes Wort war "Danke"

Italian actor and filmmaker Bud Spencer, who starred in a number of spaghetti westerns, has died aged 86.

He passed away peacefully on Monday in Rome "and did not suffer from pain", his son said.

Spencer, whose real name was Carlo Pedersoli, was known among his fans as the "big friendly giant" of the screen because of his height and weight.

The actor, who was also a professional swimmer, appeared in more than 20 films from the 1950s to the 1980s.

He frequently appeared as part of a double act alongside Terence Hill - whose real name was Mario Girotti.

Spencer"s movies included Double Trouble, Go For It, Ace High, They Call Me Trinity and A Friend is a Treasure.

"With our deepest regrets, we have to tell you that Bud is flying to his next journey," Spencer"s family said on his Twitter account.

The actor"s son, Giuseppe Pedersoli, added: "He had all of us next to him and his last words were "Thank you"."

Paying tribute to the actor, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi tweeted: "Ciao #BudSpencer We loved you so much."

Hollywood star Russell Crowe said: "RIP Bud Spencer. My heart goes out to your family."

The actor was a known fan of Spencer"s work - at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year he thanked a journalist for comparing his double act with Ryan Gosling in The Nice Guys to Spencer and Terence Hill.

Crowe said: "Dude, now you"re talking. That"s a really flattering compliment, thank you very much."

Spencer was born in the southern Italian city of Naples in 1929, but later moved to Rome, where he became a promising swimmer.

In 1950, he became the first Italian to swim 100m in under one minute.

He later abandoned his sporting career and began acting in westerns and comedy films - appearing alongside Hill in 16 films.

The actor said he chose his name as a tribute to his favourite beer Budweiser and US actor Spencer Tracy.

Summers: Brexit worst shock since WWII; banks out of ammo


Arianna Huffington"s Secret To Success | How I Made It | CNBC Make It.

The British vote to leave the European Union is the worst political misstep in Europe since World War II, former Clinton Treasury Secretary Larry Summers said Tuesday.

The EU won"t crumble, but it becomes a "less sound experiment" without the influence of the United Kingdom, he argued.

The fallout of Thursday"s referendum could send Britain into recession, Summers told CNBC"s "Squawk Box," pegging the chances of that at about 50-50.

World central banks have little firepower to throw at potential global economic unrest created by a Brexit, the former Obama administration economic advisor said, calling the current environment the "moment of least capacity" for policymakers to make a difference.

With the European Central Bank in stimulus mode and the U.S. Federal Reserve with only one interest rate hike since 2006 under its belt, Summers said there"s not much room to ease monetary policy further if necessary.
