Reggie Bush's role in Ciara's new music video Like A Boy have intensified rumors that the duo are an item. In the video, which was shot in Los Angeles, Bush is quietly sitting in a chair while Ciara seductively moves around him; whispering in his ear, hitting him on the head, laying between his legs and kissing him on the cheek.

While rumors of the new couple began when the two were spotted together at the Clive Davis Grammy Awards Party in Beverly Hills last month, when I caught up with Bush in Las Vegas during NBA All-Star Weekend he said the two were just good friends. A sentiment echoed by Ciara before the All-Star Game. So for now it seems that the Bush and Ciara item will simply remain a music video act.

• They say that good guys finish last, and when the cruel worlds of Hollywood and professional poker collide, the odds on that line coming to pass no doubt double. Yet, somehow Adam Weinrub was the last player standing in the World Poker Tour's Celebrity Invitational, held at the Commerce Casino near Los Angles last week. Weinrub, an unknown 42-year-old resident of Orange County, beat out a field of over 400 "celebrity" players, which included James Woods, Don Cheadle, Vince Vaughn, Paris and Nicky Hilton, Jason Alexander, Mena Suvari, Laura Prepon, Morgan Fairchild, James Blake, Pete Sampras, Ron Livingston, Dick Van Patten, Donnie Wahlberg, Hank Azaria, Jeffery Ross, Marlon Wayans, Jon Favreu, Jennifer Tilly, Jerry Buss, Norm McDonald, Ricki Lake, Mathew Lilard and Lou Diamond Phillips.

So how did Weinrub gain entry to the exclusive, invitation-only event? "The WPT was generous enough to donate a seat into this event at a charity auction for the Susan G. Komen Foundation for breast cancer research," he said. "And I thought, 'Wow, what a great way to play poker while supporting the cause.'" Not only did Weinrub support the cause at that auction, but he donated 20 percent of his $100,000 first place prize to the foundation and plans to donate another 20 percent from any possible winnings at the WPT World Championship, which will take place at the Bellagio in Las Vegas next month.

• After canceling Lingerie Bowl 4 prior to the Super Bowl this year, creator Mitch Mortaza is hoping to come back stronger next year with Lingerie Bowl 5 (can their really be a 5 if their was never a 4?) in Scottsdale. The major difference will be that instead of staging the halftime show at the mostly empty Los Angeles Coliseum, hundreds of miles from the actual Super Bowl site, the game will try to become a Super Bowl week attraction for the thousands of fans traveling to Arizona for the game. Mortaza is planning four days of events, including the Lingerie Bowl Experience Village, a fantasy player draft, a party on the eve of the Super Bowl and, of course, Lingerie Bowl V, "The Ultimate Catfight" will be played at an undisclosed stadium during halftime of Super Bowl XLII. Also, instead of its usual spot on pay-per-view, the event will be shown on a yet-to-be-determined cable channel next year.
