...ALLEN IVERSON The Philadelphia 76ers guard was charged with multiple felonies after he allegedly went on a gun-wielding rampage in pursuit of his wife. Yet his Reebok goods continued their steady rise in sales. Most charges were later dropped against the 2000-2001 MVP, here in an ad with...
Yeah, we couldn't keep a straight face for that either. "It was pretty much for the free stuff," says Justin Allen about his first dating-show stint. "I got three days in California, all expenses paid and $500." Other shows pay as little as $100 for a day's "work." But they offer a hit of today's drug of choice, exposure.

"We're doing an incredibly high level of food," he says, as he gently stirs a lobster sauce for a salmon en croute dish. "Critics just don't think about reviewing...
...bass player Butch Owens in the chest - accidentally, it is said; Owens survived. But Lewis's family tree is full of untimely deadwood. His elder brother Elmo was run over by a truck when JLL was three. His eldest son Jerry Lee, Jr., died at 19; car crash. Steve Allen Lewis, his son by Myra, died at 5 in a swimming pool. His fourth wife, Jaren Pate, also died in a swimming pool, in 1982.
