Heil, Jesse? Rumors of Nazi-Themed Sex Tapes Surface in James-Bullock Split Scandal
US Weekly recently released this photo of James
When Sandra Bullock accepted her Best Actress Oscar last month, her acceptance speech included a beautiful tribute to her husband of 5 years, Long Beach's West Coast Choppers' Jesse James. But soon after rumors of his infidelities surfaced, stirring up controversy and signaling the end of a martial union that may not have been so idyllic. While James' reputation has been far from pristine, gossip site RadarOnline (aka home of the Octomom) now claims to know about a dozen homemade sex tapes starring James and a variety of female partners, many of which include a Nazi motif.
An anonymous "insider" describes the content of the tapes as "really quite disturbing," and claims the tapes feature "a mass amount of Nazi paraphernalia." In one scene the insider observed "a naked woman on her knees and Jesse in a Nazi hat waving his arm in a salute." The woman appeared to have her hands bound, and James "was shouting and singing and appearing to swig from a bottle of bourbon every now and then."
So will these tapes get leaked? While none of them are currently on sale anywhere, RadarOnline's source notes they are not being kept "in a completely secure location."
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
