Is Phelps dating Amanda Beard?

Well I'm just correcting the misconception that she said Phelps was "ew...nasty!" Elise, are you suggesting that Playboy is a magazine used for a specific stimulating activity? I think the Vicky Secrets or Frederick's catalogues provide about the same for free. I'm a guy, and I think Phelps is a fair looking dude. Not Brad Pitt, but then again Hollywood is all fake tans and plastic teeth anyway. To me there isn't much difference in what she did to what Beckham did in his undies for Armani or whoever it was (careful--CF might pop up here with some data to refute it). In addition to the tan and teeth, there's some more fake things you could add on to there.......

Phelps got his body from hard work in the pool and the gym. Most of these actors get their bodies from plastic surgeon, Roids, eating disorders, etc. There are people who get calf implants. Beard should have ew, he is like a brother me. She was insulting because she talked about how, "I have good taste". And she used the word nasty. She really went over the line. Maybe she was really joking but she shot herself in the foot with the deeper comments. Also, Mama Phelps was not happy with Beard's comments. In addition, you know that Beard is loving all the press and the postings on Perezhilton.

I do remember them saying they were friends after 04 and that she thought of him like a brother. She also said they texted or talked multiple times a week ... for some reason I'm guessing that doesn't happen much anymore.

Yeah c'mon. Giving birth is what women were designed for! Sure it might hurt a little bit but let's not make out like it is "Trial by Ordeal" or something...perspective please.

This Facebook thing allows us to be "friends" with the famous such as Beard, Hall, Manadou and the Fortress. I have shown my wife pictures of Beard and Manadou clothed and unclothed, not of Fortress though. My wife refers to Beard as "that s..t" (in Portuguese version: aquela piranha). I guess she is prejudiced. Poor manadou, didn't do so well in the Olympics. Anyway, I have seen pictures of the boyfriend (Beard) and although he rides a bike, his looks would fit into the description above by Geek. I would like to add that even though we speak evil of Beard and Kournikova (the russian tennis player) we must not forget they also walked the talk, with Beard qualifying by the clock, not looks, and Kournikova did reach top ten in the tennis ranking. Some ladies such as most swimmers. including the Fortress, besides being hot are also fast. Not so much for our male representatives in this forum, with a few exceptions. The Stud and I and possibly Thornton aren't that fast but we sure are good looking blokes. (Jim is faster but he is also balder)...billy (feeling silly) fanstone

Good stuff Fanstone. Beard has 'really good taste' but 'Phelps is not her type'? At the very least, it's a rather rude series of comments.

I concur. It's often times difficult to determine just what is meant by "hook up". When in doubt, ask for clarification.

I'm surprised she said that. Not classy at all. Can I just say that I absolutely hate the phrase "hook up?" Amanda lost all class, in my opinion, when she posed for Playboy... the eww nasty quote further proves my point that she is a total idiot - insulting a teammate that has now become the best Olympian ever. A simple NO would have been enough to answer that question. I'm sure that Phelps has some dirt on her, but he is probably smart AND CLASSY enough to keep his mouth shut. She has already started damage control (read it on perez too). ;)

Yo Amanda haters; Did you hear the interview? I did. She just denied kissing or hooking up, or thinking about it. The jocks said something like "Well you can bet he (Phelps) has thought about that for 24 hours a day!" (snicker snicker fnar fnar). To which she replied: "Ew, that's Nasty!" Sorry gang, put out the torches and go back to tossing hay with the pitch forks...there's no monster at the Castle... Or as an Imperial Stormtrooper would say "Move along!"

I like Amanda, but doesn't that seem like a strange response from somebody that posed for Playboy? Well I'm just correcting the misconception that she said Phelps was "ew...nasty!"
