The company that ran this ad may want to rethink its cover model -- 1-800-YES GIRL still features murdered model Jasmine Fiore in their commercial.
UPDATE: We spoke to a rep for the company in charge of placing commercials for 1-800-YES-GIRL, who said they pulled this spot back in January and replaced it with a new one. The rep said he has no idea why the commercial would still be running at all, and said his client is NOT airing this spot to try and "capitalize on her tragic death." The rep said they're investigating the matter.

Reggie Miller is denying accusations he got down with someone else's fiancee -- but the former basketball star does admit he flirted a little bit ... well, actually a lot. But judging by the pics she texted Reggie, two played that game.
The entire Southern California coastline was roped into the story last weekend, after Alex von Furstenberg -- the son of designer Diane von Furstenberg -- hired a small plane to fly over the beaches with a sign that read, "Reggie Miller Stop Pursuing Married Women."
It's all over Alex's fiancee, Ali Kay.
According to Reggie's rep, Miller and Ali met at a Malibu supermarket back in March. Reggie says the two flirted and spent the rest of the day texting like crazy -- each sending more than 50 texts to the other in a 6 hour span (we obtained Reggie's phone records and verified the number of text messages that were sent back and forth).
Reggie claims Ali -- a clothing designer -- even texted him 2 provocative photos of herself (above), which TMZ has obtained.
But according to Reggie, in April he had enough and took her out of his phone contact list. But Reggie says in May, Ali reconnected with him, wanting to know why he had closed the door. Reggie says the next day he got an angry call from Alex.

They found each other through their shared hatred of gay marriage ... but fell in love over their passion for makeup and other assorted beauty products.
According to Miss California Carrie Prejean's dad, his daughter and Sarah Palin are phone buddies. The Alaskan Guv reportedly called Prejean to offer her support in her difficult crusade to stop gay people from getting hitched.
Keep in mind: this was before topless pictures of Prejean hit the internet. Think Palin will remain loyal to her new bud? Hint -- Have you seen "Nailin' Paylin?'

Ant the comedian is not always just about getting laughs ... and if you've seen his act, you know that's true! But the comedian recently received e-mails from a man who talked about his plans to take his own life. Ant to the rescue!
The e-mails revealed a man who has been dealing with weight, relationship, employment and sexual identity issues. The correspondence grabbed Ant's attention -- who responded by asking for a phone number -- no, not for a date! On Tuesday, while recording a "Talky Blog" with Ross the Intern, the pair called the distressed fan and gave him some emotional and genuine advice. "Reach out before you do anything crazy."
What they said struck a chord. The guy sent another e-mail to Ant after their conversation, promising to ask for help when he's feeling down and out, and saying that he now has hope. "I'm still at the bottom, but at least now I can see the light at the top."
All because a few celebs took the time to make a simple phone call. Not all stars are making news for clubbing, getting DUIs and forgetting their panties.

Paris Hilton's life in prison will be rougher than her emery board when she begins her sentence on June 5. How rough, you ask?
-- Hilton will only be allowed one five-minute shower a day ... with plain soap. The horror!
-- Two pairs of socks and panties (if she needs them).
-- Part of her day will be spent washing her underwear in the shower, since the detention center contains no laundry facilities, and her housekeeper will not be in the maid's quarters.
-- Her breakfast will be a boiled egg and not much else. Very British.
-- Lunch is typically a baloney sandwich ... not quite Polo Lounge fare.
-- Paris's visitors will be received through a glass partition ... which she might want to continue doing even after serving her time!
-- Her contact with the outside world will be via pay phone, instead of a BlackBerry and the paparazzi.
-- She is not allowed makeup, highlights or hair extensions, which may inspire the heiress to fight for changes to the cruel, cruel penal code.

Hot on the heels of Apple's iPhone announcement, LG and Prada have teamed up to release a touchscreen phone of their own.
The full-featured Prada Phone plays MP3s and videos, and has the usual phone features; messaging, phone book and Bluetooth. What sets the phone apart is the sleek touchscreen design (the first completely touchscreen phone to be released) sporting glowing icons that disappear -- when not in use, the screen fades to black. With the Prada branding, it's sure to land in celebrity purses worldwide.
The good news is that it's cool, the bad news is that at $775, it costs more then the upcoming iPhone, but has less features. Here's another catch: LG has no plans to release the phone in the United States. So, unless you plan on flying to Europe in March and you've eight Benjamins to spare -- you're left to admire this phone from afar.

Enjoy the spotlight Apple -- while it lasts. Apple, as you don't need me to tell you, introduced the $499 iPhone yesterday, and in so doing sent Apple's share price soaring by six percent. Close-competitor BlackBerry stock plunging by even more. To put that in perspective for you: Apple, Inc. is now worth $6 billion more than it was 48 hours ago, and the iPhone won't even be available until June.
I can see why. I recently steeled myself and managed to program -- slowly, painfully -- a few new numbers into my Motorola RAZR V3 cell phone. With its agonizingly slow web connection and painfully awkward text-messaging, being thin really is about its only redeeming quality. Fortunately, as Nicole Richie can tell you, being extremely thin is often enough to keep your name in the papers. When the RAZR came out in July 2004, it stopped traffic; Aircraft-grade aluminum, chemically-etched keypad numbers, all in a package less than 14 millimeters thick. Back then, we all agreed that cell phones were evil, and while they all more or less sucked for anything beside making a call, they were necessary. The least they could be was elegantly unobtrusive.
Steve Job's latest invention aims to contravene those assumptions. In addition to being a phone, it's got a multi-touch screen, scrolling navigation and a 2-megapixel camera, as well as the iPod music and video player. Daily Variety even put news of Apple's new, albeit limited, movie download agreement with Paramount Pictures on its front page the other day. (If you think your monthly cell phone bill is scary now, wait until it includes the price of the six movies, ten shows and eighteen songs you bought with it.)
More, I don't know about you, but my cell phone has taken so many beatings from me, it's considering taking out a restraining order. In contrast, I treat the iPod my wife gave to me like it's a Fabergé egg. I shudder to think what will happen to Apple if the five or six hundred dollar iPhone proves to be as delicate as it is expensive. Rather than use it to order 4,000 lattes, Jobs would have impressed me and the CES audience far more if he'd simply dropped his iPhone to the floor, as I've done a million times, then nonchalantly continued his prank call to Starbucks.
One other thing that leaves me head-scratching: Why would a guy so meticulous about what tech geeks refer to as "the user experience" throw-in with a bunch of chuckleheads like the phone companies? Ultimately, a phone is judged by its provider, and as anyone who's called directory assistance can tell you, the phone companies will deny that a restaurant you just drove by even exists -- especially when you need the number in a hurry.
It appears Wall Street's analysts share the same worries; this summer we'll see if Jobs can revolutionize chewing the fat the way he did spinning the wax.

Helio threw down the gaunlet this week with the introduction of the Drift. Sure, you can get a ton of work done with the Treo and Motorola Q, but you can't work all the time, and the folks at Helio know it.
Thanks to the new Drift, gone are the days of standing in front of a random bar, trying to coordinate your friends coming to meet you from different directions. Using the Buddy Beacon program built into the device, satellites will pinpoint your Helio Drift-toting friends on a Google map and display their position right on your phone.
The GPS-enabled Google map software isn't just for playing a sweet game of drunken hide and seek, it can also be used for real-time traffic reports, step-by-step directions to the location of your choice, and satellite imagery for a bird's eye view of a desired location.
The Drift is rounded out with high speed 3G network support, Bluetooth, 2.0 megapixel camera, mp3 player and mpeg support for VOD and videos you made of yourself during your last pub crawl. Combine all that with Helio's MySpace support and you have yourself the best party mobile device money can buy.
