< BACK TO Fresh Intelligence Family Lies![]() CHARITY CHUMS BonOprah • Say "uncle": Page Six reported a woman claiming to be Steven Spielberg's "second or third cousin" is trying to get herself into VIP-only parties. Not a bad idea, but not a terribly original one either. At the turn of the century, a young man calling himself Jonathan Taylor Spielberg briefly achieved infamy with the same lame trick. • Kolbe's beef: The board looking into the allegations of White House page Web-diddling by Mark Foley (he himself today named a Roman Catholic priest who abused him as a boy) is now looking into a second allegation, believed to be against Rep. Jim Kolbe (R-AZ), who went on a camping trip 10-years-ago with two pages, his sister, Kolbe staffers, and National Park Service employees. Surely it's pure coincidence that the latest page scandal target is the only openly gay Republican in both houses of Congress. • When product placements go bad: Emerson Electric is suing NBC over a scene in Heroes that showed someone's hand being mutilated in an Emerson garbage disposal. Had it been an appliance created by NBC/Universal parent company General Electric, it might've fared better on screen. • Bitch fight! Gossip blog Jossip.com covers the story of paparazzi den mother X17 prying mooching celebrity bloggers such as Jossip business partner Perez Hilton from its teet. Never one to deny lifting other people's pics, Perez Hilton, gets his gifted undies in a twist when X17 sends a letter to him and other bloggers politely telling them to pay up or quit stealing. In a curious spin, Perez (née Mario Lavandeira) called X17 a bunch of cunts and liars and pretends to cut off them, as if they weren't the lifeblood of his site. • And this is news?: Disgraced former heavyweight champ Mike Tyson told a reporter he's "very serious" about fighting a woman in the ring. In 1988, Tyson spoke of his ex-wife Robin Givens to a reporter: "She really offended me and I went 'Bam'. She flew backward hitting every wall in the apartment. That was the best punch I've ever thrown in my life." • Kenny-boy's name cleared: A judge voided the conviction against dead Enron conspirator (and close personal friend of George Bush) Ken Lay at the request of his estate.
