LOS ANGELES Theres low, and then theres low.Former MTV reality star
Farrah Abraham, 21, who shot to fame as a subject of the
networks 16 and Pregnant in 2009 and its spinoff Teen Mom, admitted
this week that she had sex on camera with professional porn star
James Deen. It was then widely assumed the idea was that the
video was to then be leaked as a celebrity sex tape.While sex
tapes are nothing new in the scandal drenched Hollywood community, some
argue that hiring a "pro" to orchestrate a fake sex tape is
evidence of a whole new level of desperation.Staging an event like this
is really a desperate cry for fame. As the old adage goes,
fame is fleeting and only lasts fifteen minutes. But todays stars, and
reality stars in particular, are looking for ways to make their fame
last as long as possible," sociologist popular culture expert Dr. Hilary
Levey Friedman told FOX411s Pop Tarts column. "The way to keep building
fame is to be talked about, and in our crowded media space
it takes something quite controversial to get so much ink."Life and career
strategist Suzannah Galland says Abrahams stunt says a lot about our culture.Hollywoods
impact has misguided youth yet again. This is a new low of
lows where the latest self-creative hype is shaped around being crude and
in your face, she said. Its very clear that being an exhibitionist
is in demand, and will encourage other aspiring fame seekers to crave
the same kind of attention.Even thou
Johns Hopkins neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who faced criticism for controversial
comments about same-sex marriage, stepped down Wednesday as the commencement
speaker for the university.Carson sent medical school Dean Paul Rothman
a letter, obtained by FoxNews.com, saying that he didnt want to distract
from the celebratory nature of the day.""Commencement is about the students
and their successes, and it is not about me," Carson wrote. "I
want to make certain that remains so."In the past few weeks, Carson
has backtracked on comments he made about gay marriage. In an interview
on Fox News, he had said "no group, be they gays, be
they NAMBLA, be they people who believe in bestiality ... they don't
get to change the definition" of marriage.Carson, who has become a rising
conservative star after publicly questioning Obama's health care overhaul
earlier this year, later apologized.On Friday, Rothman released a statement
calling Carsons comments offensive and said the university recognizes that
tension now exists in our community because hurtful, offensive language
was used by our colleague, Dr. Ben Carson, when conveying a personal
opinion. Dr. Carsons comments are inconsistent with the culture of our institution.Carson
also stepped down as the speaker for the Johns Hopkins University School
of Education diploma ceremony.Given all the national media surrounding my
statements as to my belief in traditional marriage, I believe it would
be in the be

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">diminished greatly.The Senate advanced
the federal legislation Thursday morning, but the key plank of that pertains
to expanding background checks. A provision to renew bans on assault weapons
and high-capacity magazines was dropped from the main bill, though it will
likely get a vote as an amendment.The odds of the Senate advancing
to an up-or-down vote on the legislation improved Wednesday after two conservative
senators -- one Democrat, one Republican -- announced a proposed compromise
on background checks meant to assuage gun owners' concerns. The plan would
apply to background checks for gun shows and Internet sales but exempt
certain transactions among family members and others.Still, the National
Rifle Association said the proposal went too far.If a bill ultimately passes,
it will only come after millions more firearms have been purchased. Ammunition,
too, has been flying off the shelves at a rapid clip. The
sales have been picking up for several months. While Obama's re-election
and the push for gun control legislation have been blamed, others have
pointed the finger at the Department of Homeland Security, which has drawn
attention for looking to purchase up to 1.6 billion rounds over the
next five years for its law enforcement divisions.
had a few more advantages -- involved adults, good
schools, a supportive community and a safe neighborhood."That was the difference
between growing up and becoming a lawyer, a mother and first lady
of the United States and being shot dead at the age of
15," Mrs. Obama said, her voice gripped with emotion.The speech was Mrs.
Obama's first public remarks on gun violence since the Sandy Hook shooting
in December took the lives of 20 students and six faculty and
reignited a national debate over gun control. But with the fate of
the administration's efforts still uncertain, the White House was mounting
an all-hands-on-deck push to keep the public engaged.The president delivered
a speech Monday in Connecticut, and 12 family members of Sandy Hook
victims joined him on the return flight to Washington and have since
been lobbying members of Congress. Vice President Joe Biden and Attorney
General Eric Holder promoted the plan Tuesday at the White House, and
Biden was set to make the case again Thursday on MSNBC's "Morning
Joe."The Senate was planning an initial vote Thursday to begin debating
gun legislation, with some Republicans attempting to block consideration
of the measure. Two pivotal senators announced a bipartisan deal Wednesday
to expand background checks to more gun sales, which could build support
for President Barack Obama's drive to tighten firearms laws. But the ultimate
fate of the legislation remains unclear with strong oppositio
