It seems like you’re not a celebrity these days unless there’s a clip of you getting mucky all over the Internet. You can be as successful as you like, but nobody’s going to take you seriously until there’s a small amateur pornographic movie of you available for the whole world to download.
Colin Farrell is suing an old girlfriend to block the release of his very own sex tape. Well done Colin, you’ve just entered the big league.
Sometimes, being naked in a sex film can make you famous. Nobody had
heard of Paris Hilton (DVDs) before she starred in the now infamous
One Night In Paris tape with her ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon. Before the
tape, she was a hideously wealthy hotel heiress. After the tape, she
was a hideously wealthy hotel heiress that drives around America being
professionally stupid.
The other big amateur sex star is Pamela Anderson (DVDs). She’s been in two
of the blighters, one with Tommy Lee and another with Bret Michaels.
Although her level of fame stayed the same, some reports suggest that
she made $10 million after suing the Internet distributors.
Other upstarts have seen their sex videos splashed all over the
Internet, but they haven’t had the same blinding level of coverage as
Pammy or Paris. Rapper Eve apparently starred in a porn micro-clip of
her own, but it was less than a minute long. And Fred Durst was more
concerned with filming his own horrific face than any of the mucky
stuff in his video.
That’s why there’s been a lot of excitement over the Colin Farrell (DVDs)
tape. Here we have a young Hollywood star with a legendary sexual
appetite getting it on with Playboy model Nicole Narain for a full
14 minutes and is said to mutter the soon-to-be legendary phrase "I
could do this for breakfast, lunch and dinner".
For the tape to be legitimately released, Farrell and Narain both
need to sign release forms. But it appears that Colin is unwilling to
let the world see his bedroom gymnastics. Farrell’s lawyers filed a
legal action yesterday at Los Angeles Supreme Court to sue Narain for
attempting to sell the tape.
Colin Farrell is after damages, a temporary restraining order and an
injunction to make sure nobody sees the tape. His team are claiming
that the tape is "highly private and confidential" and that the
Narain’s "outrageous attempt to capitalise on the celebrity of Colin
Farrell… exceeds all bounds of common human decency".
We know all about having our common human decency abused. We’ve seen Alexander, after all.

I don’t know which scene in Alexander would not have been decent. Not even the scene with Rosario was vulgar.
*Somebody* is a liar here… You haven’t seen the movie at all! :p
