BETUS.COM GETS DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF LINDSAY LOHAN’S ENDLESS RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS

BetUS Survey Finds The Real Reason Lindsay Lohan’s Relationship With Harry Morton Ended

September 26, New York – Lindsay Lohan recently starred in a movie titled “Just My Luck” and bad luck seems to have followed her ever since. From numerous hospital visits to a Tinseltown executive publicly reprimanding her partying ways, Lindsay Lohan has been in the spotlight for more negative actions than positive. Now, it appears her latest boyfriend, Harry Morton, heir to the Hard Rock restaurant has added to her laundry list of bad news and has kicked her to the curb. So why did this seemingly happy relationship come to an abrupt end?

Celebrity analysts at BetUS.com believe their users know the real answer.
The largest online sportsbook, BetUS.com, has again beaten everyone to the punch with a survey as to how the relationship ended. Over 6,500 users have logged on and even wagered money on odds posted by the site’s pop culture analysts.

Celebrity analysts at BetUS.com asked their users the following question:

Why Lindsay Lohan got dumped:

Never put on underwear 11%
Too much drug use 15%
Too much drinking 35%
Cheating on him with Paris Niarchos 10%
Too many hospital visits 29%

Executives at BetUS.com want to help Lindsay get over this painful breakup as soon as possible, so they have offered to pay for La Lohan to join “www.LetsMeetOut.com.” With this outlet, Lindsay and her friends can enjoy New York nightlife and hopefully meet a new boyfriend that is out of the spotlight.

“Lindsay Lohan and partying go hand-in-hand, but we are worried that this recent breakup may push her over the edge”, stated BetUS.com celebrity analyst Christopher Bennett. “We not only want to get to the bottom of why Lindsay was dumped, but we also have made an effort to help her pick herself up again and meet new people.”

Bodog is a book after our own hearts. Not only can you go on the web and find pictures of Paris getting arrested for DUI, you can bet on her going to court for said awesomeness. They ask: Will Paris Hilton be found guilty of Driving Under the Influence (DUI)?

Yes -240
No +165


They also ask: Will Paris Hilton be sentenced to jail time as a direct result of her Driving Under the Influence (DUI) charges?

Yes +500


I agree. Yes, she'll be found guilty. No, she won't go to jail. But it would be even more awesome if she did. The crap that would happen to her in the slammer... I guess all we can do as lowly commoners is point, and laugh, and make a little money on her misfortune.

BetED wants to know who will come out of the closet first, and in their formidable list, here are some highlights:

Oprah Winfrey +400
Keanu Reeves +200
Jake Gylenhaal +250
Andersen Cooper +2500
Mike Tyson +3500

I think Jake's a pretty good bet. There's been rumors going on forever. I had no idea Mike Tyson would be in the pool, that's really unlikely. Go forth, people!

And Bodog loves Dog too. So much that they've put up odds on whether his recent arrest in Mexico will end up with him getting jail time: Will Duane "Dog the Bounty Hunter" Chapman be sentenced to jail time as a direct result of bounty hunting and capturing Andrew Luster in Mexico?

Yes +180
No -270

My hope would be no, but apparently the Mexican government thought he was too important not to arrest, so it's possible they could be unrelenting in throwing him in the slammer. I mean, I've heard Mexican jails are pretty hardcore. Shiver.

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE OFFERED ANGER MANAGEMENT CLASSES FROM BETUS.COM

BetUS Executives Offer Justin Timberlake Time Off to Consider Recent Public Outbursts

September 20, New York – He sings on his new album about love, but there’s definitely no love lost between pop star Justin Timberlake and the paparazzi. Once again the “SexyBack” singer has lost his cool and gone after the feisty photogs. The first time he lost his cool, a paparazzo saw his camera stolen by the singer and his girlfriend Cameron Diaz. Now he’s in hot water again after pictures show Cameron trying her best to restrain her man from going head-to-head with the paparazzi. This incident also took place on a public street.

In response to the latest outburst, executives at BetUS.com, a leading North American sportsbook, extended an offer to fund anger management classes for Timberlake in return for an appearance at their upcoming Super Bowl party.

“We at BetUS would like nothing more than to help Justin Timberlake cope with his anger,” stated Christopher Bennett of BetUS. “He’s at a high point of his career and it would be a huge mistake to let an anger problem sidetrack things.”

Betting on celebrities continues to be a popular alternative to sports betting at BetUS.com. While Timberlake’s anger certainly provides fodder for BetUS bookmakers (who are speculating on when the singer will be charged with assault), BetUS executives wish to help Timberlake avoid a trip to jail and bring him on board. BetUS.com celebrity spokesperson include pro wrestler and Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura and former Playboy Playmates.

So I'd heard about this this morning, and would ya look at that? Bodog already has the odds up on it. An Irish magazine called The Dubliner apparently mentioned that Tiger Woods's wife Elin Nordegren was in some nude photos. Right after that, the British tabloids had a field day, finding more nude pictures that were allegedly of her. So is Tiger going to do something about it? Bodog asks: Will Tiger Woods file a lawsuit against The Dubliner magazine by October 31st, 2006 for alleging his wife Elin Nordegren posed nude for pornographic websites?


Yes +250
No -400


The theory here is that they published the photos to throw off his game while he's in the UK for the Ryder Cup golf championship. I smell a hint of racism in here, but that's just me. And really, going up against the British tabloids about anything is downright silly, so he probably won't sue. But we'll see if his game suffers.

I'd actually really like for this to be true, 'cause Tom has just about killed his own career. Rumors are starting that Brad Pitt could be taking over for the Mission: Impossible franchise. Please, be true! Bodog has your odds on it: Will it be publicly announced by December 31st, 2006 that Brad Pitt is taking Tom Cruise's place as the lead character in Mission Impossible: IV?

Yes -110
No -130

Both are the under, so it's hard to say. But, Paramount's dropped Tom, and they own the franchise, so anything's possible. Get on it, people!

Get on this one now, 'cause you only have a full day or so to bet over at Bodog: will Clay Aiken come out of the closet during his September 20th, 2006 interview with Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America?

Yes +250
No -400

It's most likely no, but it wouldn't hurt to put a fiver down on it!

Betting on Stupidity Really Can Pay Off

For once, being a brainless buffoon could actually pay dividends.

In a truly unique betting opportunity, online wagering giant betED.com is offering a chance to place wagers on the world’s most idiotic acts, as odds are now available for the 2006 World Stupidity Awards (www.stupidityawards.com).

Bettors can put money down on who they think will win such categories as Stupidest Man of the Year, an award in which one nominee is Oklahoma district court judge Donald Thompson, who operated a powerful penis pump beneath his robes during three trials while they were in session.

The annual World Stupidity Awards, now in its 4th year, salute achievement in stupidity and ignorance. The awards are organized by ARSE - The Academy Recognizing Stupidity Everywhere – in conjunction with New York publisher Disinformation.

“The Romans had coliseums; the Egyptians had pyramids, we have stupidity,” said official World Stupidity Awards Spokes Moron, Robert Spence. “With all that we know today, the fact that we can rush into wars, destroy our planet, and act like complete idiots, and then, be proud of it, shows we’re in an era of superstupidity.”

Another category is Stupidest Trend of the Year. The nominees, with their odds, are: Ass Cleavage (+150); Killing People for God (+150); Killing People (+180); WW III (+350); Post Reality TV Reality TV (+400).

There’s also the Dumbest Moment of the Year award, which features these deserving nominees: Vice President Dick Cheney shoots friend (-120); Zinedine Zidane head butts Marco Materazzi in the World Cup final and is ejected (+180); Protesters violently demonstrate against the Danish Mohammed cartoons (+250); Danish Newspaper Jyllands-Posten publishes the controversial Mohammed cartoons (+300); Britney Spears speeds with her baby's head close to steering wheel (+400).

We're keeping with the stupidity today, while we wait for ProjRun on Wednesday, and Survivor on Thursday. You know we'll have those covered ASAP.

Meanwhile, Bodog asks: Who will win the 2006 World Stupidity Award for "Stupidest Movie of the Year?"

Basic Instinct 2 (7/3): Um. Nice try Sharon Stone. I'm sure you're a nice girl and all, but you've beat that horse way past the pale, sweetie.
The Da Vinci Code (4/1): Just based on the fact that the book was so horrible, I refused to see any visual interpretation of it.
The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (4/1): Wow. Bow Wow really needed a job and a trip to Japan, didn't he?
Hostel (9/5): Hold on, though. This one wasn't that stupid. It was just gross. Totally different.
Little Man (11/10): Even though the ability to make money on this is slim, it gets my vote. Seriously. Like, how did the Wayan Brothers ever get anyone to work on this?

Make it work, people! A couple of bucks are always helpful.

Now that reality TV is in transition in the next couple of weeks, our friends over at BetED.com have sent us some good stuff:

Reality TV in Season at betED.com

You can always count on Donald Trump to shake things up.

With a new TV season about to begin, Trump made headlines recently when he fired Carolyn Kepcher, his longtime sidekick on the NBC reality series The Apprentice.

While season six of The Apprentice doesn’t start until January, several other series are in full swing, and bettors can get involved in the competition by placing wagers on the outcomes at www.beted.com.

Series currently available for betting at www.beted.com are Project Runway 3, Survivor: Cook Islands, and Big Brother 7: All-Stars.

Bets available on Runway include: Will the winner of Project Runway 3 be Male or Female? (Male -150, Female -120); and, Who will win Project Runway 3? Laura Bennett (-200), Kayne Gillaspie (+1000), Ulrike "Uli" Herzner (+200), Michael Knight (-500), Vincent Libretti (+2000), Jeffrey Sebelia (+300).

Or you can place a bet on who will win Big Brother 7: All-Stars? Erika (+300), Mike (-105), Janelle (+100).

The Asian-American Tribe (+170), The Hispanic Tribe (-105), The African-American Tribe (+200), The White Tribe (+125).

Meanwhile, before The Apprentice reappears early next year, Trump will have to say “You’re Hired!” to a new right-hand man, or woman, who can help him sift through the prospective candidates.

Trump reportedly dumped Kepcher after she reportedly became too enamored with her fame from the show. Kepcher was relieved of her duties as general manager of Trump National Golf Club in Briarcliff, N.Y., last week.

The real estate mogul reportedly felt that Kepcher was promoting her own career more than his golf course.

Over at Bodog today, we saw some new odds on the Stupidity Awards. There are a few categories up, but today we'll just look at this burning question: What will win the 2006 World Stupidity Award for "Stupidest Trend of the Year?"

WW III 3/1: I'd have to go with this one, only because everyone and their mother throws this out there. For everything.
Post Reality TV Reality TV 4/1: Hey really, what's wrong with being meta in the aughts, right? Former reality show stars with reality shows about their reality? Yes, more please!
Killing People for God 3/2: Yeah, it's pretty dumb, but it won't ever end. I wouldn't really put anything down on this one.
Killing People 9/5: It's been going on since the dawn of humans. It still sucks. But as long as there are crazy people out there, unfortunately there are people that are going to get killed by those crazy people.
Ass Cleavage 7/3: Okay, I was over this in, like, '98. Let the plumber's crack DIE, people.

Did you see Andy Dick licking everyone's face at the William Shatner roast? How many people had to get shots after that traumatic experience? Seriously. He was on one. But Bodog wants to know: Will Andy Dick enter a drug or alcohol rehabilitation center by October 31st, 2006?

Yes +250
No -400

Now if this is supposed to happen by the end of next month, I can see why "No" would have the better odds. The thing is, the rumors of his drug addiction have been running rampant ever since his NewsRadio days, which was 8 years ago. If he hasn't admitted going yet this year, your chances of him going by Halloween are pretty slim.
