Kari Ann Peniche Photos & Pics Archive

Former beauty queen turned sex tape star Kari Ann Peniche celebrated her 26th birthday at Taste with her parents last night and dished to our photogs about all the drama that went down on Sex Rehab with Dr. Drew, Celebrity Rehab and Sober House...

So glad her 'rents were close by to hear all this! Though I'm sure they already know.

But the big question on everyone's mind: Would Kari Ann do another sex tape? She kinda says yes, then she kinda says no. Watch the vid above and see for yourself!

Kari Ann Peniche, the woman who was exxxposed in the "naked tape" with expectant parents Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart denied former rehab roommate Mindy McCready's claims that's she's a madam and a prostitute.

“I’ve never been a madam. I’ve never been a prostitute,” Kari Ann told Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson. “Mindy is the craziest person I have ever met in my entire life. Like, she’s insane.”

But although Kari Ann fervently denied the claims, she didn't seem willing to go too far to clear her not-so-good name.

"To say somebody is a prostitute is libelous,” Shaun told Peniche. “Nobody’s suing Mindy for saying these things, these liable, horrible things. Why? Why is that not happening?”

“I don’t know… I have no idea,” Kari Ann began. "But what am I going to gain from it? You know?”

"Your reputation," Shaun replied. (Well played, Robinson.)

“I just think the truth is the truth,” Kari Ann replied. “Karma is like good enough and you know, I mean if it continues then you know maybe I’ll have to do something about that.”

Yeah, after that, we really believe that "karma" is currency Kari Ann trades in!

While Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart are getting outta town and hiding their heads in shame, the "three" in the tape's threesome, former beauty queen Kari Ann Peniche, is talking to E!

You can't really blame the former Celebrity Rehab resident for wanting to tell her side of the story. And from her POV, it all seems very innocent and "fun"!

She says she found out about the tape's leak much like the rest of us. “I just got a call from Eric. He was obviously upset, asking me something about Mindy (McCready), and that's when I was like I should go home and check to see what this is about.”

Mindy, her former Celeb Rehab roomie, is just one of the peopled rumored to be the one who leaked the tape. Other rumors suggest it was Kari Ann herself. “If I was going to leak it, I would have done that a long time ago," Kari Ann told E!. "If someone else was going to leak it they would have done it a long time ago… I would never leak this tape.”

Other reports say the tape was taken in a police raid, but Kari Ann protests "Nobody raided my house; I haven't had any contact with LAPD."

When asked if she was worried about being brought up on criminal charges in connection with the tape, she said "Not really. Because I'm not worried about anything!"

Wow, we wish we lived in her world!
