Olympian Leryn Franco, who competed in the javelin for Paraguay in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, has gone from track and field to the catwalk and not missed a beat. She didn’t medal in Beijing but is cashing in on her beauty in the fashion and modeling world as you can see in the photos below from one of Leryn’s recent prances down the runway.

Paraguayan javelin thrower Leryn Franco wowed the catwalk this week. The 26-year old model, who competed in the 2008 Beijing Olympics in August, worked the catwalk in revealing tops and sexy lingerie at a recent fashion show.

The leggy Leryn has been a part-time model and bikini contestant for years while competing in javelin events.

In 2006, she was the runner-up in the Miss Paraguay beauty pageant and Miss Bikini Universe contest. Leryn became an Internet sensation this summer, thanks to her athletic good looks, and it looks like her newfound notoriety has helped boost her modeling career.

Franco will likely be walking the catwalk and posing for magazine covers long after her javelin tossing days are over, if they aren’t already. She is a very beautiful woman that has me wondering why NBC didn’t show the javelin competition on TV during the Olympics. Simply mindnumbing!

Backseat Cuddler is reporting that Jamie Lynn Spears, who just gave birth a few months ago, is pregnant for the second time.

The National Enquirer (who was right by the way on her first pregnancy) is saying shes about eight weeks along. This just comes after having her baby, Maddie, just three months ago. Jamie Lynn wants to keep it a secret and friends are saying may be she should abort (but will that really solve the problem?).

I think this is great news that JLS is pregnant with her second child before the age of 18. At this rate she will very easy topple Sarah Palin’s meager production of five kiddos. Who would have guessed five years ago that today we would have four Spears offspring already?

I purchased Momma Lynne Spears book over the weekend. I can’t wait to find out what great parenting advice is in the book. I am hoping it has a page or two devoted to how to unroll a condom!

Talk show host Jimmy Kimmel and comedian Sarah Silverman are back together again according to sources.

“They’re taking it slow,” says a source. “They’re on the road back to being together again.”

The comedians, who ended their five-year relationship in July, have recently been spotted on dates on both coasts.

On Sept. 28, Kimmel, 40, and Silverman, 37, enjoyed a laughter-filled dinner together at L.A.’s Pattaya Thai Restaurant, says a source, and left holding hands.

Kimmel and Silverman broke up back in July after five years of dating. Silverman’s new season of ‘The Sarah Silverman Program’ premieres this week so perhaps its just a ploy by the couple to bring attention to her show.

Pop singer Madonna announced to her audience crowd Saturday night in New Jersey that Republican Sarah Palin is not welcome at her concerts.

“Sarah Palin can’t come to my party,” Madonna announced during the show. “Sarah Palin can’t come to my show. It’s nothing personal.”

She added: “Here’s the sound of Sarah Palin’s husband’s snowmobile when it won’t start,” before making a screeching noise.

With all the Palin bashing jokes on the internet and the best Madonna can do is make a joke about how a snowmobile sounds? It probably sounds very similar to how Madonna does when she is in New York with Alex Rodriguez.
