NOW CHYNA'S GOT A SEX TAPE
Ex-Wrestler joins growing list of celebrity video vixens
The following was posted on The National Enquirer Online August 2, 2004

Move over Pam Anderson and Paris Hilton! The wrestler formerly known as Chyna is muscling her way into the hardcore sex tape market!

A promoter has gotten hold of an XXX-tape starring the buffed beauty and he is making the rounds in Hollywood trying to find a distributor. The home movie shows the grappler, whose real name is Joanie Laurer, cavorting in bed with ex-fiance, wrestler Sean Waltman, a.k.a. X-Pac.

"It's a pretty hot tape," a source tells The ENQUIRER. "It was shot in an L.A.-area apartment where Joanie and Sean lived earlier this year.

"They go through different sexual positions on her big bed. Occasionally, she's decked out in a tight black vinyl outfit with a flowing cape -- kinda like something 'Chyna' would wear in the wrestling ring!

'REALLY BIZARRE'

"There's even a segment where she puts on some leather gear and twirls swords that look straight out of 'Xena: Warrior Princess'!

"It's really bizarre!"

Joanie, 34, and Sean's romance has been pretty strange, too. They got engaged in 2002, but Joanie got a restraining order against Sean the following summer after she accused him of beating her up.

By the fall of 2003 they were back together, but soon split up after a fight in a California hotel.

'WE HAD FUN'

These days, Sean, 32, who has been in rehab for painkillers, is trying to make a wrestling comeback. Joanie, meanwhile, has been attempting to launch a music career with her band, The Chynna Dolls.

But the on-again, off-again couple still talk by phone.

Said the source, "They both laughed that the sex tape could only help their careers at this point, just like a sex tape helped Paris Hilton!

"Joanie said: 'Sean and I have been through a lot worse together. At least we had a lot of fun while making the tape!' " -- MICHAEL GLYNN
