Tail Report: Marie Blanchard

This Haitian goddess is a Pittsburgh resident (and a friend of a friend), which makes it all the more impressive to see she's landed squarely on The Smoking Jacket's radar. Of course, with eyes, lips, & curves like these, it really isn't too surprising.

President Clef

It's been rumored and speculated for a couple of weeks now, but it seems that Wyclef Jean is serious about his intentions to run for President of Haiti. CNN is now reporting that the Grammy Award-winning artist will officially declare his candidacy on Larry King Live this Thursday.

Personally, I applaud this move, which may be the first instance of a presidential candidate's motivations being completely pure and altruistic in quite some time. There is not much glory, money, or fame to be had by being elected president of Haiti—certainly not more than Wyclef has gained through his music career. He has always remained impassioned about his homeland, even appearing on 60 Minutes long before the devastating quake brought the impoverished nation onto the radar of the United States' collective consciousness.

Giving Everything You Can Bare

In the words of TJ, "Nice to see everyone's doing their part to help Haiti."

From The Huffington Post:
Amy Fisher, famous for her disastrous affair with Joey Buttafuoco, is baring all for the people of Haiti.

Fisher will be stripping at Scene Restaurant & Lounge in Commack, LI today through Saturday, and will donate a portion of her wages to charity.

The former "Long Island Lolita" launched a porn site last year and has been touring the country as a stripper.
