'The Bachelor' Winner Wear Our Bras And Panties For Cold Hard Cash

Published | Updated

"The Bachelor" winner Lauren Bushnell could have fifty thousand new reasons to smile ... and all she's gotta do is slip into some lingerie.

Bushnell's been offered a year long endorsement deal from Yandy.com, an Internet leader in ladies wear. In exchange for being the company spokesperson, we're told Lauren will get a boatload of bras and panties from Yandy's new bridal lingerie line and $50k for her troubles.

Not a bad deal considering the bride-to-be has got some serious wedding expenses coming up in the near future.

It's unclear if Lauren will take the bait, but she's certainly no stranger to accepting things ... just ask all those roses.

Elle Fanning I'm Hitching My Wagon to Ben Affleck

Published | Updated

Elle Fanning has scored a sweet payday for her role in Ben Affleck's next directorial effort.

Fanning will pull in $250,000 for playing Loretta Figgis in the movie, "Live by Night." The paperwork was filed with an L.A. County judge, who must approve the contract because she's only 17.

Fanning can make extra if the movie does really well at the worldwide box office -- she'll get an additional $75k if the flick pulls in $300 million, and an additional $100k if it tops $400 mil.

Unless they change the title to "Batman: Live by Night" ... this flick probably won't reach blockbuster status. Nevertheless, Elle struck a good deal.

CAN'T HAVE TOO MUCH BLING

Ray J may have good reason to have armed security follow him around, because he and his fiancee are dripping in tens of thousands of dollars in jewelry.

The singer hit up Richard Nektalov over at Leon Diamond in NYC for a 4 carat diamond and rose gold RJ pendant, with a $10k price tag attached. But that was just the beginning. Ray also left with a $40k rose gold Rollie and two charm pendents at $7,500 a pop.

Leon Diamond does well by Ray J ... it's where he bought the 8-carat engagement ring for Princess Love back in October.

Justin Bieber Missin' Selena Again

Bieber posted a throwback pic of him and Gomez locking lips on his Instagram account Saturday ... it's not the first time he's hinted at missing his former gf. You might remember, he gushed over Selena's look at last year's met gala a few months after the two called it quits.

Hulk Hogan Judgment Could Swell to Nearly Half a BILLION

Published | Updated

The judgment Hulk Hogan got Friday could be small potatoes compared to what he could end up getting after the Florida jury socks Gawker with punitive damages for posting his sex tape.

Hulk was awarded $115 million in compensatory damages. The jury will decide next week how much to tack on by way of punitive damages, which are designed to punish defendants for intentional wrongdoing.

The Florida Supreme Court generally tolerates punitive damage awards that are 2 to 3 times the amount of compensatory damages. Anything more than 3 times is dicey ... the Court often slices excessive judgments down to size.

But 3 times compensatory damages would be a whopping $345 million, added to the $115 mil compensatory judgment, that would give Hulk a grand total of $460 million.

Gawker has already vowed to appeal.

Johnny Manziel must have pocketed even more money than we thought, because he's still living large and flying private.

The freshly released Browns QB landed in Miami Friday night with his boyz, almost certainly to hit up Ultra Music Festival.

He was just in L.A., so if he flew coast-to-coast, the ride would have cost someone $50k minimum.

Just plane crazy.

Jared Fogle Inmates Outraged Prison Made Him 'Teacher's Pet' ... Before He Even Arrived

Published | Updated

Jared Fogle was almost guaranteed a beatdown in prison, because guards made it clear to the other inmates he was the teacher's pet.

We've learned prison staff told the inmates before Fogle arrived at Englewood Correctional facility that he would be arriving in late December and that no one should mess with him.

Our sources say the staff made it clear ... anyone who attacked or harassed Fogle would be dealt with harshly.

That was enough for Steven Nigg, the 60-year-old inmate who beat Fogle up weeks after his arrival. We're told Nigg resented Fogle because the staff made him seem "untouchable" ... so he touched him.

TMZ broke the story -- Jared was pushed to the ground and beaten back in January. Steven Nigg was thrown in solitary for the attack.
