But in the sassy magazine's August "sex-obsessed issue," as its cover trumpets, music editor Tony Romando gets down and right raunchy with cover girl Courtney "I may be clean, but I still talk dirty" Love. Lusty Love, who's been known to coax thousands of women into removing their shirts mid-concert, confessed that she has a bit of a thing for big-busted gals. "Women need to get off after a certain age," lectures Love. "I got my mojo working. Some women can be completely gay. I'm not one of them. When I do it, though, I like really trashy porno girls ... Like porno 44DD, and they have to be really aggressive. Otherwise, why bother?" The Hole singer and movie actress does, however, have some trouble with triple plays. "When you're doing that threesome thing, one of the girls acts as the baby, right? Somebody's got to be the baby," says the erstwhile baby-doll-dress-favoring grunge gal. "My problem is that everyone fantasizes that I'm gonna spank them or something. They think I'm really big and dominant. Wrong. If I'm going there, I'm the baby." Goo. - - - - - - - - - - - - Their lips are no longer sealed "We need big bucks for tummy tucks." -- Go-Go's singer Belinda "I've still got the beat" Carlisle on why the seminal girl rock band has reunited for a brief tour this summer, despite the fact that vacation was once all they ever wanted. - - - - - - - - - - - - Subtitled "Zip It"? Banned outright by the mealy-mouthed, mojo-challenged authorities in Malaysia, Mike Myers' latest shag-shag-shagadelic Austin Powers flick, "The Spy Who Shagged Me," has also undergone some strange renaming in countries around the world. (They're taking the "grrr" out of "swinger," baby.) According to the London Star, French translators have retitled the film "L'Espion Qui M'a Tire" ("The Spy Who Shot Me"). Spain went with a similarly nuanced, albeit somewhat colder, "La Espia Que Me Achucho ("The Spy Who Serviced Me"). Singapore settled on "The Spy Who Shioked Me," roughly translated as "The Spy Who Was Good To Me." Japan offers the sushi-inspired "Austin Power Deluxe" (that comes with salad and miso soup, right?). Latin America gets simple with "El Espia Seductor" ("The Seductive Spy"), while Iceland hardens itself for the Sally Hanson-esque "Njosuarinn Sem Neglani Mig ("The Spy Who Nailed Me"). But the "Zip It" prize for title titillation goes to Germany, where the film is called "Spion in Geheimer Missionarsstellung" ("The Spy in the Secret Missionary Position"). Oh, behave! - - - - - - - - - - - - The biggest, hardest croc on the block "There is a very small, but significant number of reptile owners whose attitude to pet keeping is that they want to have an animal which increases their status with their mates. They want pets that are bigger, scarier and harder than their friends' Dobermans or Rottweilers." -- Chris Newman of Reptilian Magazine on the new trend toward keeping crocodiles, snakes, lizards and their ilk as exotic pets, which, he says, are shed-free and "great for asthma sufferers." - - - - - - - - - - - - Juicy bits To hell with the weirdest place you and your wife made whoopee. "Newlywed Game" host Bob "Still playing after all these years" Eubanks told the Los Angeles Times this week that his biggest on-show shocker came after he asked a contestant to recall something her husband asked her not to talk about. "She answered that her husband and her cousin were going to kill her uncle for the insurance money," Eubanks told the paper. "I was shocked, but even more taken aback when the husband returned and matched the answer." Guess that's one way to slay the competition. Is Johnny Depp on anyone's list of actors most suited to play Liberace? No matter. Reports are circulating that dreamy Depp, 36, is seriously considering taking a sparkly outfitted turn in a big-budget film about the flamboyant ivory tickler, who died of AIDS in 1987 at age 67. The flick is rumored to follow the flashy fellow's struggle to hide his homosexuality. Am I the only one hoping for a Depp tattoo that says "Liberace Forever"? The Wine Spectator has leapt into the political arena and is landing some boffo shots on antique Republican Sen. Strom "I'm gonna live forever, just to spite you all" Thurmond. The go-go grape-grapplers have placed the ancient pol on their current cover, dubbing him "Public Enemy No. 1" and taking particular issue with the sometime teetotaler's take on wine labels promoting the health benefits of wine and his support of vino taxes. "Ironically," the magazine points out, "he has been known to drink wine occasionally, apparently on the advice of his doctor that it is good for his health."
