Liz Hurley: Spank Hugh very much!
National Enquirer, May 13, 1997 issue, (pages 40 and 41)
Liz Hurley keeps beau Hugh Grant in line with a firm hand - when he's
bad, she gives him a good spanking! The offbeat beauty belongs to a
wacky group of Britons called the Viles who spank each other for
pleasure - and she's an expert at it. "They play this crazy party game
where they take turns bending over a sofa and getting a good spanking
on their naked bottoms," said a pal of Liz. "The idea is to guess
who's
spanking you - and if you're right, the person takes your place and gets
spanked. "It's all very bizarre and touches on perversion. But Liz
freely
admits she invented the game.
"Liz told me she gave Hugh a 'good paddling' after he was caught
having sex with hooker Divine Brown in Hollywood.
"She said, 'I felt a lot better then. It sort of made up for the
disgrace.' "
* The pain of spanking actually triggers the release of chemicals in the
brain that cause a "high," *anthropologist-author Ted Polhemus told
London's Sunday Times newspaper.
Model-actress Liz, the gorgeous face in Estee Lauder cosmetics ads,
doesn't think there's anything strange about her bottom-bashing.
"It's just a bit silly and naughty," Liz told her pal.
"It's all very, very British."
