Opinion: Why Is Trump Denying He Banged a Porn Star?
Photo Illustration by Thomas Levinson/The Daily Beast/GettyDear Penthouse: I never thought it would happen to me but I went to a golf tournament and had sex with a porn star…The testimony offered by Stormy Daniels at Donald Trump’s hush-money trial on Tuesday would have been more shocking if it hadn’t sounded like a classic Penthouse male fantasy from the 1980s.As Daniels told it, Trump left his post-partum wife and newborn son to attend a 2006 celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe with more than links on his mind. Through his bodyguard, Trump invited the enticing Daniels to dine with him at his actual penthouse suite. He greeted her in slinky pajamas. Suave move. Except Daniels, who is actually there for dinner, mocked them. Trump changed into regular clothes and, for a moment, it looked like the fantasy might never become a reality.Read more at The Daily Beast.

‘Vanderpump Rules’ Finale: Is the Show Broken Beyond Repair?
Photo Illustration by Thomas Levinson/The Daily Beast/Getty/BravoHow will this season of Vanderpump Rules be remembered? Coming off the soaring high of the Scandoval, Season 11 has been one big hangover, neither matching the unrealistic expectations set by the scandal, nor sinking under pressure.It’s been a haze, a real-time look into how a reality show adapts to a completely new world. It’s easy to forget that the original Season 10 finale served more as a swan song than a promise of many seasons to come. Renewed attention gave the show a second life, but what is Vanderpump Rules without SUR? Can the show successfully spin off into a modern rendition of The Hills? Will good ratings keep the gears turning, even when the cast stops?After 15 episodes, those questions largely remain unanswered. VPR is stuck in an unsustainable purgatory, further complicated by the fact the current star of the show is holding it hostage. That’s how we ended up here, at a season finale that wants you to know production is ready to blow everything up to move forward.Read more at The Daily Beast.

Rudy Giuliani Forced to Learn Accounting After Bankruptcy Beancounter Bails
Jeff Kowalsky/AFP via Getty ImagesRudy Giuliani’s bankruptcy accountant took $12,000 from him and quit, and now he can’t find anyone else willing to sign his financial statements—potentially forcing him to become his own accountant and assume personal responsibility for his records.That’s one piece of eye-popping news found in a series of court records filed on Tuesday related to Donald Trump’s bankrupt, criminally indicted, slanderous former personal attorney’s ongoing financial woes. In all, the filings paint a picture of a recalcitrant debtor abusing the judicial system in an attempt to stave off his financial obligations with one hand, while blissfully draining his bank accounts with the other.Giuliani’s creditors likened the experience to being “on a hamster wheel,” in a separate filing on Tuesday detailing their efforts to hold Giuliani accountable “for his recurring and continuous misdeeds.”Read more at The Daily Beast.
