Drunk Mark Owen ‘lured 16 year olds to bed’

London, March 17 (ANI): Adding to the expose of Take That star Mark Owen as a love cheat are revelations made by a fan who claimed the singer lured her and her friend into bed when they were 16.

Susan Blake said she and friend Kim, from Southampton, were approached by Owen, who later invited them follow him into his bedroom, on the night of the band’s one of 1995 Earls Court concerts.

“He walked straight over to where we were sitting and said, ‘Hello girls’. He asked what we were doing. We said we were tired and about to go to bed. He said, ‘Want to come to a party in my room?’ He told us to go up to the top floor in half an hour. It was clear that he was drunk,” the Mirror quoted Susan as saying.

She continued: “We walked into his room but there was no one in there, just the smell of incense. I said, ‘I thought there was a party in your room’ and he just laughed, saying, ‘Oh, no.’ Because he was in Take That, I just thought they were ­trustworthy and nice. He offered both me and Kim champagne but we both asked for water.”

Susan added: “Then he just took his clothes off and sat on the bed in a pair of white Calvin Klein boxer shorts. Kim and I looked at each other and thought, ‘What?’ Mark then said, ‘You can both stay if you like.’ I looked at Kim who nodded. I got into the left hand-side of the bed with my clothes on and Kim got into the right hand-side.

“After about five minutes, I felt his hand touch my leg. He kept saying, ‘I want sex with you both’ but I said I didn’t want to. He even got condoms out of the bedside drawer.”

The trio ended up in a threesome, claimed Susan, whose name has been changed to protect her identity.

Susan, now a 31-year-old mum of three girls, said: “I look back know and think, ‘You, silly moo’. But we were just young kids. I had only ever kissed a boy before. He knew that we were both young girls and he was taking ­advantage of us. But it’s his wife I feel sorry for now.”

Owen, 38, is presently in rehab after he confessed cheating on his wife Emma with several other women, including young groupies. (ANI)

New York, Jul 9 (ANI): Mexican businessman Carlos Slim is rumoured to be romancing Queen Noor of Jordan.

The claim made by culture blog transracial.net, says Slim, 69, “has been involved in a golden-years romance” with the 57-year-old Jordanian royal.

“She visits [Mexico City] often, is said to be studying Spanish, stays in the hip Hotel Condesa and they either rendezvous at the private homes of friends or in luxury resorts in Latin America,” the New York Post quoted the blog as stating.

The couple was seen in New York in May 2007 at a Tate Modern fund- raiser also attended by Calvin Klein, Chelsea Clinton and Lady Rothschild.

Last month, it was reported the pair had stayed together at New York’s Palace Hotel, but the queen’s office has called it “entirely erroneous”.

Eva Mendes defends her slender frame

Washington, June 30 (ANI): Eva Mendes has slammed critics for comments that her body looks thin and skeletal in her recently shot Calvin Klein Underwear advertisement campaign.

“I don’t have a starving body. I have a healthy toned body. I don’t think people should criticise my advert. I prepped for it a lot and I think it’s great. It was in the desert and we were all oiled up for it. That’s my job!” Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

In the advertisement, the ‘We Own the Night’ actress poses alongside actor Jamie Dornan on a sandy beach wearing just undergarments.

The bombshell also featured in the Calvin Klein Secret Obsession advert last year in which she was seen writhing topless on a bed.

The advert was later banned after the US bosses said it was ‘too sexy’ for family viewing.

However, Mendes loved the advert, she said: “I love it. That means the ads are totally Calvin, totally provocative and a little controversial.

“In the commercial you’ll see me rolling around in bed a lot, that’s basically all I do. I have been a fan of Calvin Klein’s Obsession ads since I can remember.

“I love to feel super-feminine. I love dresses and skirts and dislike jeans. I think what makes a woman sexy is confidence.” (ANI)

Calvin Klein tones down racy SoHo billboard orgy ad after complaints

New York, Jun 24 (ANI): A new ad by fashion brand Calvin Klein, showing a racy orgy scene, has been taken down after many complained about the sexually explicit details it portrayed.

A picture of a dripping-wet model in a string bikini replaced the orgy-themed billboard, which had been placed on Houston St. and Lafayette St.

“I think it’s a good thing,” the New York Daily News quoted Rae Vermeulen, 36, who lives a few blocks from the billboard.

“The old one bothered people. It was a little too explicit with the threesome.

“You didn’t even notice the jeans as much as what was going on with the people,” she said.

The original ad showed a very young topless woman atop a shirtless male kissing another man, while below them a guy with his shirt and jeans unbuttoned appeared to be passed out.

Last week it was reported that passers-by thought the content crossed the line for public display, but the new one has been accepted.

“This is a lot better than the full blatant threesome they had before,” public relations specialist Rebecca Edmondson, 29, who passes the billboard daily, said.

“I do like the bathing suit on her. It’s cute!” she added.

Adolfa Arena, 48, a dog walker in the area, said the ad was effective without being provocative.

“I think this one is brilliant,” he said.

“It’s the beginning of summer, so it works out perfectly,” he stated.

When Calvin Klein officials were told of the complaints last week, they had defended the ad, saying the intent was to create “a very sexy” campaign.

The firm had no immediate comment on June 23 on why they removed it, but gas station manager Shohel Mohammed, 29, who works across the street, was glad to see it go.

“Customers used to come in all the time and say that it’s too much,” he said.

“I’m glad they decided to change it,” he added. (ANI)
