Naked Self Promotion: How Hilary Rowland Saves Africa

Ryan Tate — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:54:25 EDT

Hilary Rowland is more than a model, starfucker and internet entrepreneur; she says she cares about Africans too. And we believe her, if only because her charitable endeavors give Rowland the chance to promote herself half-naked, as is her wont.

Rowland apparently started something called Project Migration this past summer. The organization sells products "made by single mothers in Africa;" proceeds ostensibly help improve their water supply and health care. And, what do you know, this effort just happens to require a professional photo shoot starring one Hilary Rowland (see attached video), which the sometime model just happened promote to her public Facebook wall:

(We're not sure what the reference to Rowland being "haunted by" porn purveyor Vivid Entertinament is about, though that comment makes us especially curious about her past.)

This isn't Rowland's first brush with chairty; though she is best known for posting pictures of herself with various celebrities on Facebook, and for being the rumored girlfriend of celebrity actors like Adrian Gernier and James Woods, she's long participated in various charity events, emphasis on "events" (one "Mexico Summit" observer: "they handed shoes out to little brown kids...in between cocktails"). Her day job consists of repurposing Glamour and MSN articles for her fake fashion magazine, "Hilary." Perhaps an article about Project Migration is in order. Don't forget the photos!

Harrowing 'Donkey Punch' Trailer Scares Audiences Into Celibate Future

STV — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 17:10:00 EDT

As far as horror movies based on aberrant sexual practices go, we would have had our money on "Dirty South Fish Hook" as the trick to beat for pure, threatening perversion (think Teeth, but featuring two sets at once). But the UK thriller Donkey Punch has apparently beat it to the, well, you know, premiering in the Midnight section at this year's Sundance Film Festival and opening next week in its home country. Sadly, no American distributor has yet picked up the film, leaving us with only this trailer to tease us with proof that nothing avenges an orgasmic jab to the face like a gun-and-chainsaw murder spree. Those Brits! So... saucy! [The Chaser Blog via Videogum]

Unfortunate Ad Placement Brings Disney Into Brave NSFW World

STV — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 15:15:24 EDT

Occasionally, when the planets align just so and the sun strikes the Earth at the exact right location, we witness that rarest of phenomena known as Disney Ads on Smut Sites. Or at least that's what gutter-minded rabblerouser Drunken Stepfather calls it, having caught as many as six different instances of Walt Disney World Web ads aligned beside Egotastic's recent coverage of sex tapes, flashings and other NSFW (and definitely NSFDW) mini-scandals.

"I was pretty shocked to see Goofy staring back at me," writes depraved DS proprietor Jesus Martinez, capturing the stunning quality of this galactic event in one of his few moments of media-critical clarity. Of course, we know as well as anyone how accidents can happen in the vagaries of ad networks, but the prospects for Pluto to grin at us with a bone in his mouth while a would-be Lindsay Lohan plays metaphorical tit-for-tat inches away... well, folks, that's just pure, head-exploding magic.
