The preacher and the soft-core porn star: Murder is classic tabloid television formula...


Sad but true, this story from From The Examiner has all the buzzwords (in bold) that would lead to a classic tabloid television murder story (and the "soft core" element makes it even better):

"A woman found murdered last week in Monrovia, California has been identified as Felicia Lee, 31-- perhaps better known as soft-porn star Felicia Tang. Her boyfriend, Brian Lee Randone, 45, has been arrested and charged with torture and murder. He is believed to be a former preacher.

"Randone, originally from Nebraska, was also a mime who performed a “special brand of ministry” in 1996 at Baylor University. Baylor is a “nationally ranked Christian university” in Texas. It appears Randone then moved on to California seeking a career in show business, and was 'Mr. Nebraska' on Fox’s Sexiest Bachelor in America, a 'pageant' of eligible bachelors from around the country.

"Lee is listed on various sites as a soft-core porn actress, staring in such films as 'Asian Fever' and "'Hotel Decadence.' Her more mainstream credits are listed as: 'Cradle 2 The Grave' (Movie/Production: Warner Brothers); 'Rush Hour 2' (Movie/Production: New Line Cinema); and she was featured in 'The Fast And The Furious' (Movie/Production: Universal)."

Our condolences to the victim's family and friends...
