Dr. Laura's Dirty Dozen - 12 Photos in Which She Bares All Go Up On the Internet SEATTLE--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE)--Oct. 22, 1998--A dozen fully nude photos of Dr. Laura Schlessinger taken by an ex-mentor have made their way to the Internet, revealing ''My Kid's Mom'' in poses that will stun her 18-million radio fans. The photos and an accompanying news story will go on the Internet Friday 8 a.m. PDT, on the notorious www.clublove.com Website operated by Internet Entertainment Group (IEG), the company that has gained fame for posting photos and videos of celebrities, including the ''Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee: Hardcore and Uncensored'' videotape. The photos of Dr. Laura, were taken when she was in her 20s by Bill Ballance, a prominent California radio personality who is credited with launching the career of the radio shrink. Ballance, who will be 80 on October 27, told IEG that Dr. Laura willingly posed for the photos and insisted that they show full frontal nudity, including some extremely revealing closeups. In the accompanying article on www.clublove.com Ballance says he and Schlessinger were lovers. Schlessinger, now 51, is married to Lew Bishop, who manages her career, and the couple has a 12-year-old son. She converted to Judaism and is allied with the strict Orthodox branch of the faith, and she frequently is seen wearing a Star of David around her neck. At public appearances, she has been known to pass out buttons reading, ''Character Does Matter.'' ''With these photos she could become a poster girl for her own best selling book, 'Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives,''' according to Seth Warshavsky, President of IEG. ''Here's a case of a woman who sets herself up as a paradigm of virtue and it turns out she has had a few salacious moments in her own life.'' An article in the September 1998 issue of Vanity Fair article says Dr. Laura admits doing things ''I regret and have shame for'' and says she is ''repentant: I have moved on: I see no reason to embarrass myself.'' According to the article, when Ballance was told she was writing a book on the Ten Commandments, he jokingly replied: ''She's broken them all.'' Ballance, who is credited with inventing modern talk radio, is also quoted as saying: ''You want to talk to me about Laura? This ogre I created?'' IEG will offer free one-week memberships in www.clublove.com to all persons over 18 who want to see the Dr. Laura pictures and read the accompanying article about her. The photos will be displayed using ''Live Picture Technology,'' which enhances quality and enables the viewer to zoom in on specific body parts.
