Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Yes, I Am Aware That Michael Phelps Is Rumored to Be Dating Some Australian Ho-Bag

So I come back from my delicious (expensed!) business lunch — and a doctor’s appointment where they were running late, so that’s what took so long — to find like 8000 emails from you guys alerting me that Michael Phelps was seen making out with Australian swimmer Stephanie Rice, which is twice as many emails as I got from you guys yesterday with that information. And I love love LOVE when you guys send me tips — don’t stop! — but can we all please understand that I am intentionally ignoring this story?

Because I just invented a new universal truth: if it’s not on my blog, then it can’t be true.

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

I WON’T BELIEVE IT!

NO! NO! NO!

  • Beet – to put your mind at rest – Stephanie Rice and Eamon Sullivan are an item, they were before the games, they “took a break” for the games and now they’re back together. She’s not with Michael Phelps and if you saw Eamon Sullivan you’d understand why ….

    Read some Australian gossip sites to put your mind at ease.

  • You could always just find somebody that owns a horse and ask them if you could make out with it for awhile. I’m pretty sure you could pretend it’s the real Michael Phelps as it would have basically the same head and teeth as well as a strong athletic body.

  • Beet, she’s not with either… she broke up wit Sullivan and was only around Phelps because they share some sponsors and are the big medal winners. She’s too hot for him anyhow.

  • Beet, I love you. You’re like my one woman support group for my raging Phelps crush.

    Phelps is too hot for Rice, anyway!

  • Don’t worry – any relationship that he gets into now (not that he’s entering a relationship or anything – don’t worry) will break up cause his life is definitely going to change as he knows it…. after the Olympics, it is going to be a crazy time for him!!

    Geez- the least he could do is make out with a friggin American!!!! That’s his patriotic duty.

  • Hey, Fuck You!

    Until Stephanie Rice smashed the rest of the world (including USA) and won 3 gold metals you didn’t even know who she was… so what gives you the right to call her a ho-bag?

    Go fuck yourself!

  • he has the cutest belly button. love it. proud aussue, please bitch! we saw her pics from her facebook , being drung, slutty and stuff. how much more proo we need to call her a ho- bag. and eamon is gorgeous… I’d kill for a boyfriend like him. It’s actually the aussie press said that they were an odd couple since she was immature, and he was mature beyond his age!!!!

  • Shock horror, two young 20 year olds, with hot bodies and the world at their feet letting off steam and celebrating their triumphs with a little kiss in the corner of a nightclub…. if something is happening between them, I doubt it will even last till the end of this paragraph!!

    On that note, if it is true, Stephie… Eamon is soooo cute, there isn’t a woman in Oz that wouldn’t gladly have him if you don’t (Im putting my hand up).

  • Don’t worry Beet, Stephanie is having a rebound fling! She’ll be back with Eamon before you know it!

  • 1. Rice is a really cool chick. She’s interviewed constantly and is very sweet. The worst thing anyone here can say about her is she wore crappy earrings (like I even noticed.) As for her Facebook stuff, I haven’t seen it but who cares? (I think she’s a cutie anyhow.)

    2. She won 3 medals… as in awards or pendants, not metals as in “element that readily loses electrons to form positive ions (cations) and forms metallic bonds between other metal atoms” from the freaking periodic table of elements. Anyone that can train to even be in a position to be considered for the Olympics is pretty gifted/special in my book… medals or not.

    3. Phelps is a talented (superhuman) swimmer and seems like a nice guy, but he apparently has the IQ of a doorknob (and not the fancy kind with a locking mechanism either). It’s kind of like admiring the “hot guy” on the short bus… but I digress, you ladies (and guys I suppose) can admire whomever you want! He deserves all of the positive attention he gets because I’m sure he didn’t get to look and swim like he does eating Ho-Hos and powdered donuts in between cigarettes.

  • Yeah if anything is happening with them it is totally a rebound from Eamon and wont last. However they apparently were only on a break and are still together. In any case Eamon Sullivan is waaaay hotter than Michael Phelps!

  • eamon is way hotter than phelps don’t worry :P
    anyway Steph is cool and she trains near me. nicer than him :P

  • @ lucie beluga: I looked at your link (couldn’t understand a word of it) and was excited to see you had a picture of Pavlova! That excitement waned when I saw you also had a picture of Lucky Charms cereal. That was random.

  • Haven’t you heard that the athlete’s center at the Olympics is always like sex city? How many condoms they have to order? Don’t take anything to seriously and wait a couple months after he gets back so everything will “clear up” (and he can get antibiotics if he needs ’em).

  • Down Unda
    your views are sweet
    Let me tell you
    I look at Phelps with a combination of awe and wonder
    he was diagnosed wit attention deficit
    his teachers said he would be a nobody in this damn life
    and here he is
    a man with a talent

  • A champion
    not a Mr Pitt
    but a nice next door guy with a nice body
    and a nice person
    who made it his own way
    and deserves better than being compared to a common
    door knob

  • Michael’s mom and sisters must be so proud of him
    that the rest is unimportant
    I am happy when a ill fated person succeeds
    beyond expectations
    I am happy when the frog becomes a prince
    so,I wish him all the best
    I wish people won’t ruin his sweetness
    and his boyish smile

  • and yes
    I agree with you
    this has to do with hard work
    so lets praise Phelps
    and keep building a huge fan club
    the world over

  • You guys are too funny. At least Stephanie Rice seems cuter and has a sweet accent – better than that Hoff girl. Seriously – even if Michael “made out” with her, that is NOT dating — you know how many girls he is going to “make out” with – many!!!!! Everyone thinks he is a god.

    A friend of mine just sent me a magnet of Michael with his speedo pulled waaaaay down low, exposing his Olympic rings…. ahhh! Love it!!

  • @ Klipper: Will you just shut up? Seriously. It’s not very nice to make fun of the way a person looks. Especially if the person in question is basically a national hero.

  • @down unda (is that you beet?)
    hey, I’m currently trying to translate it and get a better design for it : D
    not sure it’s the place to talk about it but it’s supposed to be a cook blog with creative recipes in an overall hallowe’esque and childish atmosphere, think helena boham carter meeting Jamie Oliver or something like that^^

    anyway cheer up beet, he as to try some out to get to understand how it is that you’re the one perfect for him ^^

  • Stephanie gorgeous? What are you on? Stephanie is only 20, but has the face of an old lady! Bug eyes, huge nose, heavy body, she is not hideous, but way bellow average!The rhythmic gymnasts are orgeous. and Alicia Sacramone, maybe…

  • WHERE ARE THE BUTT CLEAVAGE SHOTS?!!! OR THE VIDEO OF HIM GETTING AN ALL OVER RUB DOWN BETWEEN SWIMS? I MISSED IT WHEN THEY SHOWED IT ON THE OLYMPICS!!!

  • Found your site looking for some hot Phelps photos… I’m glad I’m not the only one obsessed with this babe! tee hee Take care!
