BEARD RASH

 

Ian Thorpe's Amanda Beard claim looks a bit rash

IAN Thorpe thought he and US swimming sex symbol Amanda Beard  were in a relationship. She saw it differently - and today said so publicly.Champion athlete Beard has flatly denied that she and Thorpe were once lovers.
As speculations swirls around Thorpe's friendship with his Brazilian flatmate Daniel Mendes, Beard was adamant that she and Thorpe were never an item.

[I thought this story was interesting because of the coincidental usage of the word "beard". In gay circles a beard is the name of a female partner taken by a gay man to give society the impression he is straight.]
