Sarah Phillips, a former Espn.com writer is admitting, kind of, to not making the best of decisions. After Deadspin found out that she was conning popular web producers out of the rights to their work, she tweeted a few choice items. The self-professed gambling expert convince people with large social media followings to join a "sports comedy venture" that didn't exist.
She reportedly deleted a few tweets after the story broke, and she unfollowed several hundred people. Then she started talking over Twitter. She says in one tweet, "I'm not deleting my account. I understand if you unfollow. At the end of the day, there are two sides to every story." In another, "I never wanted to be in sports media. It just happened. I concealed my identity so I wasn't a "gambler" to future employers."
She says, "I made poor choices with who to trust. I'll correct that moving forward.

'When I was a child, I looked up an agent in the Yellow Pages, called from the school payphone – and signed on'
What got you started as an actor?
I was a strange, antisocial child. I had insomnia, so I watched a lot of late-night movies from the 30s and 40s, and then I started reading about Hollywood. I realised acting was a job you could choose to do – so I looked under A for agent in the Yellow Pages, then called from the school payphone and signed up. My first job was a public service announcement encouraging kids not to be embarrassed by their grandparents if they had a weird accent because they came from a foreign country.
What one song would work as the soundtrack to your life?
That's How Strong My Love Is by Ov Wright, because I'm a romantic at heart.
What's your favourite museum or art gallery?...

Now that Chelsea Clinton has announced that's she's engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Marc Mezvinsky, who will design the bridge-to-be's wedding gown? If family ties have anything to do with it, then all signs point to Oscar de la Renta. Until Jason Wu came along, Oscar had all but been elected the District's official dressmaker. De la Renta designed Laura Bush's 2005 inauguration gown and Jenna Bush Hager's 2008 wedding dress, and he’s outfitted Nancy Regan too. But it's a closet full of Oscar that has made Chelsea's mom, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, one of Hill's haute dressers. Not only did Hillary select a shimmery gold long-sleeved Oscar gown for the inaugural balls after Bill Clinton’s swearing-in in 1997 (the First Lady turned to...
