Enter Leo. Slender, smooth, cupid-lipped, his refined looks suggest a dewier Brad Pitt--a Brad Pitt crossed with Natalie Portman, say.

He was sexually mature, yet someone she could mold. The two began visiting museums and exchanging poetry, and by June 1996 they were having sex. "She found the man of her dreams," says her lawyer, David Gehrke...
...Fact: The STEELERS, favored by a slender one-and-a-half that feels like a pick 'em, will not disappoint L.I. Slim again. Down with Elway. Fact: The EAGLES, 6-1 at home, are hothothot, at least for them. Face it: the Giants couldn't score a touchdown if the Eagles slept through the game. Fact: The Raiders will sleep through the game.
