'Dr. J' Sex Tape Released?
Mon Jan 26,11:49 PM ET
A sex video reportedly featuring NBA Hall of Famer and Orlando resident Julius Erving has surfaced just as he begins divorce proceedings from Turquoise Erving, his wife of 30 years.
The alleged tape was delivered to the New York Post last week and was apparently shot several years ago in a San Jose, Calif., hotel room with a young woman.

Dr. J, 53, who led the Philadelphia 76ers to the NBA championship in 1983, reportedly said that it was his wife who released the tape to the media.

"This tape was made 15 years ago, while my wife and I were separated," Erving told The Philadelphia Inquirer Monday through a spokesman. "The decision by my wife's advisers to release it during our divorce negotiations is disappointing, especially since my wife has had it in our possession all these years."


The New York Post, said the video shows a younger Erving in an "undershirt, boxers, and metal-framed glasses engaging with a voluptuous, dark-haired young woman with cinnamon skin (ST's comment...well, at least she's of color) wearing a negligee."

A Seminole County, Fla., court ordered Erving to pay Turquoise $1,500 a week, plus household expenses, and $8,000 a month for credit-card bills. Erving lists his net worth at $9 million.

The former Sixers star has fathered at least two children out of wedlock: tennis player Alexandra Stevenson, 22, and Jules, a 6-year-old son identified in divorce papers last year.

Maybe if he wouldn't have bought his 13 year old son CARS and a house and all other sorts of superficial bullisht including that house with gold steps, he might have 2 nickels to rub together.

This bankruptcy certainly proves the worth of "bidnessman" Percy Miller. If he were a real "bidnessman," he would have invested his caiche-foo instead of flossing.

Oh wait, Lil Jon is still out there. And the St. Lunatics.

Well I guess it's all a matter of time.

Who's "Crazy in Love" with Beyoncé Knowles? The NBA and Tommy Hilfiger, for starters.

On Tuesday, it was announced that not only would the lead singer for Destiny's Child sing at halftime of the NBA All-Star Game Feb. 15 in Los Angeles but also she will help launch a new Hilfiger fragrance. The sweet smell of success comes when people talk about you with an unending string of adjectives.

If you'll recall from the School House Rocks videos, "Adjectives are words you use to really describe things, /Handy words to carry around. /Days are sunny or they're rainy /Boys are dumb or else they're brainy. /Adjectives can show you which way."

Buzz challenges you: How many adjectives are in the following statement by Tommy Hilfiger, honorary chairman and principal designer of Tommy Hilfiger U.S.A.? "Beyoncé is a true star. Not only is she extremely talented and beautiful, but she is sophisticated, intelligent and charming. Her career is serious, professional and on the rise."

According to published reports Michael Jackson's ex-wife, Debbie Rowe, is going to fight him for custody of their two children. Debbie is concerned about Michael's growing involvement with the Nation of Islam. Debbie is concerned about how her children are being raised. Debbie is Jewish and sources say she is planning to prove that Michael is not the children's biological father. She will provide evidence that she was inseminated with sperm from an anonymous donor. After all these years Debbie is worried about her children. She sold her womb for six million dollars, a house and a car, plus she gets $50,000 a month for household expenses. In other Michael news, his advisors had to have a sit down with the pop star. After last week's antics at court they are fed up with him. They want him to start acting like a grownup. Last week at his arraignment Michael put on quite a show. His advisors want him to cut out the cake and ice cream parties at Neverland. They also say no more moon walking on top of SUV's. They want him to stop being late for court and stop relying on his big brother Jermaine for advice. Jermaine was the one who suggested the cake and ice cream party at Neverland for the fans. His advisors say he looks as though he is thumbing his nose at the legal system. He is facing serious charges with the child molestation allegations and when he appears in court again this summer they want him to be more respectful.

Exactly...I agree 100% ST. He was real gaudy with his. I will say one thing for Puffy, he knows what he is doing with his money, and investing it quite well.

Could someone tell me which sister is June. Was it the one with the deep voice, or the one that sang lead in most of the songs? Or is June the real slim one?

[AKA2D '91]

June was the skinny one with the big mouth. She had braces at one time. (I hate to describe her like that, but it's the truth). Her mouth kind of reminds you of the Xiomara (sp) contestent on ANTM.

Yeah, she sang most of the lead.

Anita had the "long" hair. The one with the deep voice that had twins at 40+ maybe Ruth. (I may have Anita and Ruth confused).There was another sister Bonnie (I think) that left the group early on.
