Word on the street in Malawi is that Madonna is on the prowl looking for an accessory, an attachment to the last child she bought in the impoverished nation, and as is par for the course where Madonna is concerned, her contrived act of humanity isn’t fooling anybody.
The story goes that Madonna has her eyes set on a girl named Mercy, and that Mercy still has a loving family member or two kicking around Malawi willing to raise her, and that for two years Madonna has been dogging them about letting her take Mercy back to America with her. There is little doubt in my mind that she has engaged a government official or two to help her out with that cause, and that more than likely she has spent quite a few “Bennies” greasing their palms to get them to help her convince certain members of Mercy’s family to see things her way. Madonna isn’t above being ruthless by the way.
There is little doubt in my mind that Madonna has taken an “”eff them, don’t they know who I am” kind of attitude, and she is prepared to pay even bigger bucks than she paid for David to make sure she gets what she wants. Yea, there is some palm greasing going on in Malawi, but it will be all hush-hush.
Yes sir, Madonna is coming across like quite the humanitarian.
Brad and Angelina have a little bit of competition now when it comes to that “rainbow” family they are trying to build, but as far as the humanitarian thing goes, they put Madonna to shame. That’s what this might be about when it comes to Madonna, you know, trying to out-do Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
That’s the kind of shallow person Madonna is when it comes to somebody else’s star shining brighter than hers, and you know it.
She is really going to great lengths to keep up with Angelina, I mean come on now, she might as well be stealing the kids she is adopting.
What really gets me in all this though is that Madonna isn’t a “hands on” kind of mother, and that in her mind, and she will tell you this, children “cramp her style.”
That’s why she hires caregivers, because she just hasn’t got time to raise children. They are all right to have around, you know as ornaments, but at the end of the day Madonna has to see having children as a real pain in the ass. I don’t know why she is going out of her way to torture herself.
Didn’t Guy Ritchie mention something about that when the beginning of the end of their marriage unfolded?
I’m sure he said, or somebody who worked for Madonna and Ritchie made a statement that implied that Madonna spent more time trying to steal another woman’s man than she spent raising her kids, or was it she spent more time at the gym.
Oh well, doesn’t matter, money talks for Madonna, and I’m sure Benjamin Franklin more than makes up for her lack of “parenting skills,” at least in the eyes of her three children.
The last time I paid any attention to what was going on in Madonna’s life,” she was stealing another woman’s man.
Now she is stealing a grandmother’s child, maybe a father’s daughter, an uncle’s niece, or a cousin’s cousin. She is stealing a child that belongs to somebody though.
Back to that “how good of a mother is Madonna really” thing.
I do find myself wondering how much of a mother Madonna has been to David Banda, you know, how often has she been there for him when he needed his mother to give him that kind of motherly love little boys need sometimes.
I bet it hasn’t been often, that when it comes to that motherly love with the gentle and soft words, Benjamin Franklin did the cuddling, kissing and talking for her. I’d bet on it.
Madonna’s a busy woman, taking care of herself, looking out for her needs is the number one priority in her life.
Her kids are lucky if they even come second, what with that cult thing she has happening, and her obsession with staying forever young.
Then there’s the time she has to spend stealing another woman’s man, if only to make him yet another one of her sexual conquests.
Like I said, her children would be lucky if they come in at number two on her list of priorities, and to think she wants another one.
I bet David’s former nanny (Australian Angela Jacobsen) has something to say about that given that she was paid to be at David’s beckon and call 24/7 while Madonna did her own thing.
I bet since Madonna fired David’s nanny, the nanny’s phone hasn’t stopped ringing.
The media will be all over Jacobsen like flies to shit, and they will have their cheque book in hand. Somebody is going to pay her big bucks for her story, especially if that story includes allegations that Madonna isn’t exactly what any nanny would call a good mother.
Sure there’s still the issue of a confidentiality agreement that Jacobsen signed, but money talks, especially a lot of money.
As the story about Madonna’s pending child buy gets deeper, there is little doubt in my mind that cash is going to win out over loyalty and any confidentiality agreement when Jacobsen finally agrees to a deal with whomever is willing to pay her the bigger bucks when it comes to the story she is going to tell.
As for Jacobsen’s departure being amicable, I don’t believe that for one second, especially since she had the decency to give Madonna advanced notice of her resignation, the decent thing to do, only to be fired on the spot by a spiteful and vindictive Madonna.
I hope Jacobsen doesn’t expect the world to believe that she’s all good with that.
By the time Jacobsen signs on dotted line to sell her story, all bets are off as far as loyalty, friendship and confidentiality goes. Mark my words.
In the mean time, I’m going to wait and see how far this latest Madonna drama plays out before I throw anymore daggers at her.
I don’t know what is going to happen, but my gut is telling me that her adoption of Mercy isn’t going to be any smoother then the last one was, and in fact I think Child Protective Services in the U.S. might have a few concerns of their own now that Madonna is back living in America.
We haven’t heard those concerns yet, but you can bet they have some, and we will hear about them sooner or later. They’re coming.
I love cars, those of the sporty kind, and there was a time I would go out of my way to buy a car that would attract women.
Back then, I think we called those kinds of cars penile extensions, in fact I’m sure of it.
Yep, if you used your car to pick up “broads,” then the assumption was that you had a “wee willy.” Of course, in my case that was just a myth.
I also used to like hanging out in bars back in “the day,” and during those times when I was enjoying the single life, I could be found almost every Friday and Saturday night cruising the bar, looking to pick up chicks.
The more drinks I had, the less I cared about the age of the woman I was trying to pick up, though if I thought a girl didn’t look eighteen years old, I wasn’t interested.
So there you have it. I admit that I treated bars like a meat market in my early to late 20s. No regrets by the way.
Guys weren’t the only people cruising the bars looking for something to take home, and while there were girls my age who were doing the same thing, there wasn’t as many of them as their were cougars, women who are typically in their 40s and like to pick up men who are at least 10 years younger than they are.
Trust me when I say I saw some pretty ugly cougars back in the day, and I may have even bunked down with a few on a Friday or Saturday night, but the cougars kicking around the hot spots these days put those cougars to shame.
Today’s cougar is good looking thanks to face-lifts, botox, breast implants, working out and staying fit.
Long gone are the days when the guy is always buying the cougar a drink too. These days you are likely to find that it’s the other way around.
Cougars now tend to be well educated and “cosmopolitan,” not like in the old days when they behaved like single blue collar workers with a grade 10 education, a couple of kids, and fancied drinking at somebody else’s expense until their faces fell off.
If a man meets up with a cougar in this day and age, he is likely to find her a lot more confident and empowered than he is, especially when it comes to sexuality.
Back in the Eighties cougars pretty much travelled in packs, but in 2009 they pretty much hit the predatory nightclub scene solo.
Cougars aren’t just found in bars either. They can be found in health clubs, at concerts, in sporting goods stores, sporting events, the produce section of their neighborhood grocery store, and hardware stores.
Not that I expect any my readers to be familiar with Ilona Paris (I certainly am not), but she’s the author of a book called “Hot Cougar Sex,” and according to her there are four major types of cougars.
I don’t necessarily agree with her description of the four types of cougars so I have taken the liberty to add my two cents worth.
Major types of cougars:
Power Cougar-She is highly educated, dresses for power, prefers discretion when it comes to her sexual trysts, and is very capable of “busting balls” in the boardroom or just hanging with the big guys. She decides when the sexual encounter is over. Almost always has to be on top, which is all right if the guy if he is shit-faced drunk and can’t be bothered going through the motions to get his rocks off.
Intellectual Cougar-My favourite kind of cougar, at least back in the day it was. The intellectual cougar is a bright lady, the kind you will find reading a book while sitting at the bar. She likes to talk about society, and have philosophical debates with whoever happens to be the object of her desire. She’s a little timid between the sheets at first, but when she gets revved up, WOOHOO!
Unexpected Cougar-She’d be the one you never expect to hit on “younger than” guys who are tired of going home with the Palm Sisters. You can always tell when a guy has spent the weekend with an “unexpected cougar” because he’s the guy that comes into work on Monday mornings and brags about his conquest for the entire work week, that and he is grinning from ear-to-ear and telling his co-workers he might be in love.
Divorcee Cougar-She’s just looking to get laid, no attachments. Probably the sluttiest of all cougars. Loves to party too. She’s an “all-nighter” kind of girl.
There is also, apparently, something that is known as the cougar with “puma status.”
She’s what you would call a “Bond Girl,” dressed to kill, sexy voice, and looks like a super model.
Ultra chic would be the best way to describe that particular cougar.
Cougars seem to think they have it all, and are more than just a little into one-night stands. They prefer a younger man without baggage and who has a lot of energy. They aren’t “in it,” in most cases anyway, for the money, as cougars these days are usually independent and financially stable.
Calling them gold-diggers would be inappropriate.
Cougars also don’t care what anybody else thinks, and neither do the “cougar hunters.”
When it comes to “cougar hunters,” they appreciate a cougar’s confidence, the sexual experience, her sex appeal, the fact that she is less inhibited and more sexually mature than women their own age.
Most cougar hunters will tell you that a cougar knows what she wants and likes “between the sheets,” and that she isn’t afraid to show them, though alcohol does loosen them up to that point in some cases.
Unlike the days when I use to cruise the bar looking for women, the cougar isn’t ridiculed and looked down upon as much anymore, and that is mostly due in in part to Cher, Teri Hatcher, Demi Moore, Kim Cattrall, Nicollette Sheridan, and Cameron Diaz, all of whom at one time or another, have been crowned cougars themselves. Now those women were cougars.
Of course, not all cougars look like they do.
No sir, nothing disgusting or embarrassing about being, or hooking up with, a cougar these days.
But hey, what do I know.
The only “puss” I play with these days is the one that belongs to my…never mind I think you know how I’d finish this sentence.
Geez, this Hollywood has-been makes it easy for Confessions to pick her on her.
Lie-Telling Lindsay: “I don’t drink, I don’t do drugs!”
You know, we think we might have misjudged our Lindsay Lohan. She’s actually a brilliant actress!
Speaking with E! News, Lindsay portrays someone sober, honest, and free of drama, saying, “I don’t drink, I don’t do drugs and I don’t lie. I love to act and write and be creative, and I want to help people by playing characters that can send a positive message out to whomever may need it.”
Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!!!
She added, “I move forward and I change. Life’s too short not to. If people would just leave my personal life alone-because it’s really not that interesting-then I could land a great role. But all the sicko fans and the noise is so distracting.”
Maybe if you quit acting a fool and maintained some semblance of a serious career, we could take you more seriously!
Continuing to play her character, Lindsay said, “I’d like to have my own charity, do work overseas, be in Oscar-nominated films, write movies, produce movies/shows/videos, design clothes, make music, write books, etc…. It’s all possible if people would just stop judging me and accusing me and making me out to be this aloof, spoiled, ungrateful and unprofessional person that I am not and could never be.”
She concluded her monologue by saying, “It would be really nice if people would believe in me.”
And then the folks over at E! gave a warm round of applause as Lindsay bowed and exited stage right.

Lindsay Lohan: Cash-Strapped and Unemployed
Is Lindsay Lohan following in Britney Spears’ footsteps?
No, not as an actress-turned-Paparazzi-magnet, but as a cash-strapped spendthrift. The New York Daily News reports that Lohan has been over-spending and now relies mostly on credit cards and girlfriend Samantha Ronson’s funds. A “friend” says, “Sam really thinks Lindsay needs to learn how to become a recessionista and manage her money better.”
Evidence that Lohan has been spending above her means includes a new Rolex watch ($30,000) and Maserati (over $100,000). Plus, Lohan hasn’t been in a film for the past two years, which has limited her income. She is reportedly looking for work now.
Perhaps she can follow in Spears’ example and regain control of her finances. After divorce papers filed in late 2007 revealed that Spears saved none of her $737,000 monthly income, her father helped her reign in her spending and boost her income through a new album and much-marketed comeback.
Lohan’s troubles underscore just how hard it can be for celebrities to live up to the luxe life they come to expect. According to financial planners, the rich and famous often fail to plan for the fact that their income is unstable, often peaking early in life, as well as stand up to the many hangers-on that ask for support.

Then there is the following article that appeared on the Fox website:
Biting Back as a Business Woman: Lohan Responsible for Ronson’s Fame & Fortune?
Reports have been running rampant that a “financially-strapped” Lindsay Lohan has been spending all of Samantha Ronson’s hard-earned dollars, but according to insiders Ronson only earns the big bucks she does because of her romance with the high-profile actress.
Tarts has been told that prior to her relationship with Lohan, Ronson was lucky to earn $5000 a night but since dating the starlet her rate has doubled and even gone up again a little more in recent times. But it gets better – apparently these days it is often written in to Ronson’s contract for certain bookings that if she brings her girlfriend to the gig she pulls around $25,000. So is Lohan the main reason Ronson is who she is and earns what she earns anyway?
“A few years ago it was the same thing with AM, he earned more when he brought (then-girlfriend) Nicole Richie,” said an insider. “But he’s a very talented DJ and has since built a career of his own.”
A rep for Ronson did not respond for comment.
So while Lind’s career in front of the camera may not exactly be running hot right now, the 22-year-old’s business ventures are going strong even despite the depressing economy and her well, occasional wild ways. According to West Hollywood boutique Kitson, her leggings line 6126 has been literally running out the door since its launch in July last year and that is with most consumers not even realizing LiLo is behind the brand.
We’ve also confirmed she’s already designing for the upcoming season – the party princess even gave up her Monday afternoon to give her showroom and buyers at Los Angeles Market Week a sneak peak as she desperately wants to make it big in the business world.
Column Archive
Miss Lohan also just inked an exclusive deal with cosmetics giant Sephora to release a tanning mist “Seven Nyne” which will hit the stores nationwide May 1st.
“Lindsay is determined to be on her best behavior and is working extra hard,” added a source close to the starlet. “She has been told if she steps out of line even a little her deals will be screwed and she obviously doesn’t want that to happen.”
And Now a Word From CG
Surely Confessions could be forgiven for assuming that Lindsay, LiLo, Lezlo (or whatever you want to call her) Lohan is out of touch with her own reality when she tells anybody willing to listen to her that life is good, that it isn’t as bad as everybody is making it out to be, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera…
It is quite obvious to this blogger that her continued use of alcohol and drugs, despite her claim that she doesn’t drink or do drugs, has left her living in lalaland. Wouldn’t you agree?
Having said that, she needs to learn how to drive too.
Lohan In Another Car Crash
Lindsay Lohan has been involved in another car accident — her third crash in less than three weeks.
Lohan and her assistant were caught up in a smash in Glendale, Calif., on Monday night when the actress’ Maserati rear ended a Subaru, damaging the left front bumper of her luxury sports car.
The star was a passenger in the Maserati, while her unnamed assistant was driving, according to JustJared.com.
Lohan was previously involved in a crash at Jack Nicholson’s Hollywood Hills home earlier this month, when she drove her Mercedes into a gatepost outside the property after being let in to escape the paparazzi.
She was involved in another incident just days later, when her driver clipped a gate while escorting the star home from a night out at Los Angeles’ Sky Bar hang-out.
Lohan is currently serving a three-year probation order relating to her 2007 driving under the influence conviction.

When Kimberlee invited me to attend her Human Rights Tribunal hearing I had to decline the invite, if only because I really don’t think it was worth the effort to travel some 20,000 odd kilometers to see and hear for myself what I already knew, that Kimberlee was running a scam out of vindictiveness and spite, and that her case is going to be tossed out.
I could be wrong about the latter, and if I am I will step up and say “Okay man, I was wrong,” but really now-how far does anybody think this stripper age discrimination thing is going to go?
Kimberlee doesn’t have a dancing leg to stand on, and whenever her case is eventually heard (it has been 4 months she levelled her human rights complaint by the way), I still think it will be tossed.
Of course there is always the possibility that John Sit, the man she has levelled the allegation against has already reached some sort of compensation deal with Kimberlee (her story no longer has the legs it once had, and I’m thinking Mr. Sit might have settled by now) and if that’s the case, good on Kimberlee for making some easy money.
If Confessions readers recall I mentioned that Kimberlee had sent me a photograph of her in a black thong bikini.
She claimed she was testing me, but only after I fired off an email in which I asked her not to send me anymore photos.
Testing me my ass, she wanted me post them in Crooked in Canada, in an effort to milk as much publicity out of her story as she could get. She even tried to create a little scandal, claiming something about leaking of her photographs on the Internet, or something like that.
Like I said before, she’s a publicity hound, looking to make a name for herself in an attempt at getting a little fame and fortune.
After sending her an email asking her not to send me anymore photographs, she left the following comment at Exotic Dancing Dinosaur Visits CBC Website: Kimberlee Ouwroulis Defends Herself. I don’t know what it is about that particular blog article, but whenever Kimberlee had a comment to make, or point to make, that was the page where she left her long diatribes, rants and other dribble.
Kimberlee’s comment:

Apparently there is a naked photo leak; and I dont know; I have sent a couple of naked photo’s to my friends and stuff..who knows. C.G. I believe that Mike above; is Mike my x husband; or Mike at the Million who was ordered to fire my by John Sit; I know he didn’t want too…..anyhow; he has already lied on the tribunal paper work; there is tons of evidence against Mr. Sit; the list is growing longer every single day. Now; Mike; the x., I thought you were in jail; because I had a parole officer call looing for you several months ago…as far as Mike; you are probably an uglier women than me;;; ha ha..\
Anyhow; the witness against Sit; that I have tucked up my sleve; is a man; and he will testify at tribunal; which also catches Mr. Sit; in a lie that he already told at the tribunal…there is proof Sit is lying….
So; anyhow ya all here is something else good.
Penthouse in Houston Tx; I’d like to say hello to the management there; because the Italian guy from New York was amazing; but the Asian guy who acted like a military drill sargent; was an asshole! Just don’t think about me that I don’t like Asian’s because do; but what I noticed is that the Asian Managers; prefer the youngest possible girls. It is simple. I remember even telling my guy that I did[t like Penthouse that much due to a couple of bad employee’s…..but the Management like the Italian guy; from New York was amazing…..! I loved workig there for a little while; and even in Tx; Texas; I remember thinking that there were some odd meetings taking place in his bar; with some Muslim men; again; it was reported to the on staff door man….good thing he was like a human metal detector.
Anyhow…. I don’t have any way of letting people know what is going on with the case; but what I can say is that there are some pretty shitty people out there in the great big world; and I wish to hell they would not try to turn this into a judment; because it looks to me; that all shows on t.v. are about juding and everyone wants to be another Simon Cowell or whatever his name is; so stop juding me; and judte yourself…do onto others…and your own life will be a little better;…
There is a male witness in my case; who will be comming to the tribunal; and he will testify against sit; and that is gonna be very interesting;
C.G. I made up with the person I was telling you about; so that is good; and I am happy again.
I do not think that I am famous; that is terrible; a famous person is like Madonna; or something and my name is not good enough to be mentoned with hers; who is my favorite star…! so there; People who might be reading this; this entire thing is embarressing; it’s not fun knowing that people are deliberatley for example cutting up my family name I heard…and that too is a big sinolaaaaaaa…..I hope the peopl that did tihs;; on redeye; still haven’t seen it; all get fucking fired; they are loosers themselves…jude me huh? what gives you the right; you don’t pay my bills; and when I go to sleep tonigt; I will pray your asses get fucking fired one day…a message for those assholes on the pannel…who I have nevre ever even seen before nor will I ever watch it….(I think the way I think; and by the way there are a shit load of my friends who thinik they are assholes too…they should get into a bar fight or something with a couple of my friends; and lets hear there apology…! see ya loosers at red eye;;;hope you all get fired one day.

In response to her comment I fired off this email to her:

To: ”Kimberlee”
Look, what you are telling me doesn’t hurt me in the least. You want to tell me about your life that’s fine, but I know when I am being played having played a few games myself.
Having said that, I am going to assume that you communicate with Jaime, and that she shared with you contents of an email I sent her in which I was looking for an opinion about you from her.
I hope things work out for you in all aspects of your life, and the lines of communication will always be open between you and I, but don’t play me or send me any
provocative photos of you because as I said I have no interest in them.
Take care of yourself.
Best regards,
CG

I didn’t send any did i? sorry if I did; I didn’t think I sent you any photo’s? No c.g. you see you are not being played! Played; anyhow; whatever; I am not trying to do anything but just in case anthing were to ever happen to me; (because of John Sit) then at least someone other than my own ‘circle of friends’ would also know the truth..
Look c.g. I don’t have time in this life for bull shit…with John Sit. or anyone else; I am a very honest individual……when It comes to myself; I can make alot of jokes about myself; but why should I allow others to make fun of me or not defend myself.
I didn’t thinkk that I had sent you any pics by the way…I only discussed it……and the potential of that…but you kow what…it’s somethiing that I haven’t done so it’s all good.
Look can you just relax; and if you want Jamie to contact me; that is cool; and I don’t have to bother with your site if you don’t want; there are others you know; but I just wanted to comment on yours because you were the meanest person.
D81 says to me today that you live in North Bay; according to the i.p. etc., so anyhow c.g. I don’t know; I think you are playing more games than me; by telling the world that you live In Australia;? I don’t believe you really! I believe my hells angel fiance; thanks very much; and yes; it is true I am with a hells angel; but you should not divulge tis on your website; I asked you not too…and when the times comes; I will let you know that it will be o.k. or something;
I realize that you will make alot of money; but again; it’s not about money anymore…..this entire incident about being a fired old stripper; is super embarressing. and It’s hard to go thru it; and you kow what; my American Lawyer did say I should exploit the situation; but I haven’t yet have I; or else; I’d have my own website; with my own pics., and thoughts.
I don’t really need you to tell me that you are being played; because you are not; I just don’t have time to do that…it’s much more simple for me to tell the truth….you see! Life is much easier when you do that…or the truth as you believe it to be you know.
Now I told you that my fiance is a hells angel; and so far you have not betrayed me! I appreciate that o..k.! Because he’d be pissed off. The main thing here is that we are together; and finally back on the same page. I told you before ; and I will tell you again; I have world wide support according to d81 from Hells Angels all over the world…because that is why he said…they support my case and that I should win!
I wish you were more trusting; and I am sorry that you don’t think that I would be a nice computer friend if nothing more; I want to reach out to you as a person…human being to human being….and I want you to at least like me; and your friend Jamie too!
My first husband was named James….and you know what; his frieds used to call him jAMIEn BUT i NEVER CALLED HIM THAT..JUST jAMES.
Anyhow; I don’t know what to say; but you are welcome to email me anytime too; sometimes I go to your site; because I want people to have a few clues in the case…it’s getting wild and more wild by te moment.
D81 is sleeping right now; I am at peace again…until the next p.m.s. ha ha..no; most of the time I don’t get that emotional but you truly hurt me as a person with your comments; so that is it; I would like some peace from the situation…..
besides what if I didn’t have a computer of my own; and I was far away; and then I emailed you ; at administrator@crookedincanada.com like from my vacation or something….you need info on me; to make sure it’s really me…right.
Take care o.k. I don’t want to be a trouble maker or anything for you and stuff;
D81 and I are going to get married soon; and I will let you break the news when the time comes…it’s going to be a suprise for the club too….d81 has never been married so I’m all excited….we had a long heart to heart today; and got lots of thigs settled you know….and I feel safe and comfortable now….at least more safe; I’m afraid that John sit; according to my old manager; meaning one of the men who are suing etc., c.g. you have no clue how people are comming to my rescue to help me in this case;
I will stay in touch with you though o.k. I’d like to be a computer friend at least! I will not betray you…do you understand…and I don’t want you to betray me; just like you said before; so please…..try to believe me because I know you want to continue to be mean…
Please do not be so mean; I know it’s easy on a computer to be mean; like I said this is hard the entire thing is actually embarressing.!
Thank you
Kimberlee (christy)
During the four months I corresponded with Kimberlee (Nov 08-Feb 09) she sent me a lot emails, and left quite a few comments in Crooked in Canada, and while I am publishing them here, they will not be appearing in chronological order a lot of the time.
It still makes for interesting reading though, and it does give readers some insight into what this particular Canadian stripper is all about.
Having said that, Kimberlee shared quite a bit with me, and believe me when I say that “our story” gets very entertaining from this point forward.
Previously in Kimberlee Ouwroulis’ story
I hope she has found herself an agent because the hype that has been created by Kimberlee, a few newspapers and television reports of her story, like the bit I saw on Fox’s “Red Eye,” is probably going to pay off big time, so much so that if OHRT doesn’t dismiss her case, she might just drop the case herself so that she can focus more on pursuing some of the lucrative offers that have fallen into her lap since she first went public with her story. Trust me those offers are there now. Good on her.
I can’t say that I would blame her for putting those offers ahead of her lawsuit, after all it would be less of headache, and besides Kimberlee doesn’t strike me as the type of person who would put fighting for the rights of other strippers ahead of the fame and fortune that is knocking on her dressing room door.
While their report was amusing, they were merely having some fun at Kimberlee’s expense, and I’m sure she was insulted a lot more by their report than anything I have written in Crooked in Canada about her. I’m sure the money her story is generating for her will help her get over it though.
In the mean time her current new employer, and her, are cashing in big time with all the publicity that has been surrounding her complaint. No doubt the club she is dancing in now is hopping. Business will be booming, but eventually the novelty will wear off.
Whatever happens to the legal side of Kimberlee’s story, you can bet that when she decides to cash in those offers that are pouring in for her by now, her 15 minutes of fame will either be extended to 70, maybe 80 minutes in a porno movie, and at the very least in a couple of monthly issues of a skin magazine, maybe a Hustler, Penthouse or Playboy spread, the latter of course being the most lucrative of the three photo spread options she would receive in my opinion, though a porno movie producer might pay her big bucks to appear in a few “monkey-spanking” scenes.
Red Eye also says that upon hearing that response Kimberlee got up and left his office and headed straight for a lawyer.
I have to wonder if Kimberlee didn’t already know that she was going to be let go before she entered the office to face off with the club manager, and that she had an angle to work to ensure that she was going to be financially compensated in one way, shape or form.
I don’t believe she was surprised by her firing, in fact I think she was expecting it, only she didn’t know when it was going to happen.
I think she might have contacted the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal to discuss her options before she was fired, that she was prepared when she walked into the manager’s office. I think she might have even attempted to secretly record the conversation she had with the manager. It’s amazing what an MP3 can be used for these days.
I am also going to assume that the manager was smarter than he was given credit for on Red Eye, and that he never once mentioned that he was firing Kimberlee because of her age, or if he remotely even said anything like that, though if Kimberlee has a recording of the conversation she would prove me wrong.
For now I am going to assume he chose his words very carefully knowing full well the ramifications for him and his employer if he mentioned that she was being let go because she had grown too old for the job. Saying the club was going for a younger look or feel isn’t discriminatory by the way, it’s just good business for a strip club operator.
That said I will close out today’s Crooked in Canada entry with comments others have made about this story.
Less than one month after the Canadian stripper’s human rights complaint went international, the relationship between Kimberlee and I began to sour, and from this point on we were no longer getting along like two tassels on a pasty.
