Taking Names

‘Sex’ star in sex tape?

Kristin is back in the news, and no, it’s not Eliot Spitzer’s reported high-priced escort, “Kristen.”

Kristin Davis, the actress who played the squeaky-clean Charlotte York on HBO’s “Sex and the City,” is rumored to have made a sex tape, Newsday.com reports. Upon news of the “leaked” photographs, bloggers and gossip sites went into a feeding frenzy. The woman in question bears a striking resemblance to Miss Davis and is also photographed in a compromised position.

According to OK! magazine, representatives for Miss Davis have denied the sex-tape rumors.

When the BBC asked Miss Mills about the attack, the former “Dancing With the Stars” participant would only say that Miss Shackleton had been “baptized in court.” (Miss Shackleton’s office at London’s Paynes Hicks Beach law firm had no comment, People.com said.)

Meanwhile, Judge Hugh Bennett, who presided over the proceedings, said Miss Mills was a less-than-candid court witness whose original $250 million divorce claim was exorbitant, Associated Press reports. The judgment was released yesterday after a court rejected Miss Mills’ attempt to block publication.

“To some extent she is her own worst enemy,” Judge Bennett wrote of Miss Mills. “She has an explosive and volatile character.”

Cheaper to keep her

Speaking of Mr. McCartney and his slightly lightened wallet, looks like he got off easy compared to the celebrity hubbies in other big-money splits. According to AP, the most expensive include:
