IS TAWNY KITAEN MENTAL?

Louis Cypher · 09-25-2002, 02:44 AM

SANTA ANA, Calif. -- Actress Tawny Kitaen has filed a $12 million lawsuit against her estranged husband, St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Chuck Finley.

In the lawsuit, made public Monday, Kitaen accused her husband of breach of contract, saying Finley broke his promise to financially support her for the rest of her life. Finley filed for divorce in April, three days after Kitaen, 41, was arrested for spousal abuse.

Finley did not respond to the suit before the Cardinals' game on Tuesday night.

Kitaen, who appeared in the feature film Bachelor Party and the television movie California Girls, was accused of attacking her husband April 1 as the two were returning home from dinner. Police said they saw cuts and scrapes on Finley's body.

Kitaen pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor count of spousal abuse and was ordered to undergo a year of counseling, avoid contact with her husband and make a $500 donation to a battered-women's shelter.

Finley, 37, was playing for the Cleveland Indians at the time. He was later traded to St. Louis.

In court documents filed Sept. 17, Kitaen said that when Finley proposed to her on Valentine's Day 1991, he gave her a Cartier diamond engagement ring and a key to his home. He soon gave her unlimited access to his personal bank account and told her to spend away, the lawsuit said.

When Kitaen became pregnant with the couple's first daughter in 1992, Finley requested she become a fulltime mother in exchange for financial support, the lawsuit said.

Kitaen gave up her career of making $15,000 a week on the sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati and $22,000 an episode as host of America's Funniest People, the lawsuit said. She stopped working fulltime in 1993.

Kitaen was Finley's nurse and homemaker and managed his day-to-day business, the lawsuit said. She also boosted his career by lending him her own celebrity, and even picked out his hair color to burnish his boyish image, the lawsuit said.

Since filing for divorce, Finley has ignored Kitaen's repeated requests for money, the lawsuit said. He also took $4.1 million from a joint personal account, the lawsuit said.

I just think that's how most women over 30 look without makeup.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Maybe it's just me, but I'd still do her.

One question. How did her nose widen?

Why doesn't anyone listen to me? I'm an old fart, but young chicks are the way to go. I majored in sociology, and when I write my tome on
the subject, it'll include a chapter that details the numerous advantages that young chicks have over old bags.

And somewhere there's a young chick writing a "how to" book on reeling in deluded old goats who think that they are attractive to women young enough to be their daughters.
Tawny took on OJ, the hot-for-five-minutes lead singer of the rock group Whitesnake, and a professional athlete; those kinda guys will age you quickly.

Nostaw, Jerry Buss is my idol. Have you seen the quality of hot, young pussy that his type of money can buy?

Point taken. You saying you got Jerry Buss type money?

Railbird · 09-25-2002, 05:23 AM

I hope she takes Finley to the cleaners, Chuck should be taking to an alcohol rehab center immediatley. I cant belive Jerry Buss dates these escorts in front of his daughters, what a classless guy.

Nostaw, I'm well off, but not rich. But there are worse fates than being a poor man's Jerry Buss. And in places like Thailand and the Philippines, a guy can live a Jerry Buss-type lifestyle for a fraction of the cost. My old bud Dick the Pick rents a 5-BR house in Thailand for $93 a month. And according to Dick, you can get a quality BJ at the local whorehouse for $8.

reno,
does that include the tip?

nostaw1952 · 09-25-2002, 05:45 AM

To each his own, Reno. $93 for a 5Br, huh? That's pretty sweet, but there's a good reason for that: you're in THAILAND!

That's her mug-shot from prison. Not to many beautiful women look wonderful at booking time.
Not too many men, transvestites, he-she's, look good at that moment either.
It's rare to find a women that keeps the beauty past 40.
You need dump and pump. It's as simple as a reload. Bless the RICH!!

I remember her from the movie CAT PEOPLE. Nice shot of her tits in a swimming pool scene. Anyway that jailhouse mug shot ain't that bad except she looks a little bit like that nice Florida girl Carol Wuernos.
