Back in 2007 a stripper went public with pictures of boxer Oscar De La Hoya wearing lingerie, high heel shoes and a fishnet bodysuit, along with wild tales about how Oscar loved to get high and cross dress [click here if you missed that]. A few days later the stripper retracted her story and said the pictures were fake [click here if you missed that], they were not...
In a recent interview Oscar totally admits that the pictures were real and that he paid the stripper off to make them go away!
From the NY Post
Boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya admitted to dressing in drag and considering suicide while his life was going down for the count because of self-inflicted, one-two punches of booze and cocaine addiction.
In a remarkable Spanish-language interview with Univision, the "Golden Boy" said he's been clean for more than three months after hitting rock bottom in May and checking into rehab.
De La Hoya, 38, confirmed that scandalous pictures -- of him in high heels, fishnet stockings and frilly lingerie -- are real.
"Let me to tell you, yes, yes, it was me [in those pictures]," he told the news show "Aqui y Ahora," or "Here and Now."
The pictures also showed the bizarrely dressed boxer frolicking with Siberian knockout Milana Dravnel.
The Post published the photos on Nov. 15, 2007, following which De La Hoya insisted the pictures were frauds.
Now the ex-fighter has come clean: "I am tired now of lying, of lying to the public and of lying to myself."
He said he was high on booze and cocaine when the racy photos were snapped.
After De La Hoya launched a campaign to discredit the wild images, Dravnel filed a federal lawsuit against him, claiming his handlers duped her into agreeing that the photos were manipulated.
They settled the lawsuit out of court and both sides clammed up, citing a confidentiality agreement.
But courthouse sources told The Post yesterday that De La Hoya shelled out a whopping $20 million to Dravnel to go away. The deal also called for her to give back the heels, lingerie and fishnets that she kept after their kinky photo session.

Everybody is into their own thing I guess. No judgment here. Glad to hear he's sober (and that he got his panties back lol)
Based on these stories of dumb athletes, it pays to be a jumpoff. I hate these rich men who give hope to the aspiring jumpoff. He pays that woman $20 million to keep hush about something he owned up to anyway. Same with Tiger Woods.
lol! Great day when you stop lying to yourself. Now, if only he would knock a n*gg* out in that ansemble....That I would pay to see!
Glad he's clean,clear and sober. No further comments.
He told the TRUTH, and that's what matters!
This is something that ALL THOSE RAP PERSONNEL need to take notes on.
ONLY the TRUTH will set you free.
I'm hoping none of you two faced assholes up in here supporting him were on the other post calling Mexicans out their name and calling them spics. For real.
Snitch, do an IP post count on these heifers.
She's lucky she got money instead of murdered.
I knew from the jump that those pictures were real. However, I agree she is lucky that she wasn't dealt with. Mayweather mentioned Oscar using drugs and dressing in drag on last week's 24/7 on HBO.
Awww damn i forgot about these pics! Lmao all over again.
But anyways, kudos to him for getting clean.
Some things should remain private. What a waste of money.
Should we now refer to him as the "Golden Girl" instead of by his moniker, the Golden Boy?
I HIGHLY doubt that Oscar gave this trick even $200K and DEFINITELY NOT $20 Mil. That's ridiculous and so untrue.
whatever...
Who really cares at this point.
Oscar, PLEASE stay clean & sober.
PLEASE give your life to JESUS CHRIST.
JESUS is the ONLY one who can save you !!!!!
I know he hate THIS shit resurfaced. Why he let pictures be taken of his issues like that and he's a celebrity? this nigga dumb!
daaaam and he want the heels and fishnets back??!!!! LOL, he oughta sell them on Ebay, he'll make a killin'
If I'm not mistaken, when this shit went down homeboy was filing lawsuits and all kinda shit. Talk about taking lies too far.. DLH always been a clown though.
Yes I too want to see him fight in the ring wearin' that shit, he might start a trend lol that's one tranny that will knock you the FUCK out!
He is now officially the Dennis Rodman of Boxing
20 million!? so two million wouldnt have been enough to shut up a hooker??
If he paid 20,000,000, then she must have had some SERIOUS dirt on him.
most of the hollywood people are fags. It's no secret in the industry loll
I almost fell out of bed when Mayweather made the comment about De La Hoeya last night.
Floyd is so arrogant. It's only a matter of time before he falls because there is not an ounce of humility in the little body of his, he's a clown.
I get the sense that Oscar still wants the spotlight, especially when I saw him on CNN with the Ortiz guy. I can't believe he came clean about the photos, although anyone with any experience using Photoshop would KNOW that the photos are real.
I can't believe this is came up again I was so heartbroken in '97 when the pics came out. I guess it's good that he's getting it back together, but this is how many years later after that incident and he's just now pulling it together? And damn if those pictures weren't rock bottom, I hate to find out what he did a few months ago!

@4:42pm You wrong for that one! LMAO
I don't follow boxing but I doubt that this episode -- personally embarrassing but not hurting anybody -- will damage his boxing reputation... especially if he whups his next opponent's @ss
To the person that made that fag comment, how many times did you wack off to those pictures with yo "straight" @$$? Yall bitches don't want none. Us fags telling the truth on some of you straight hoes daily. Check yo men ladies. They follow us to the men's room to get our numbers while telling you $h!t like you see that punk! You betta get some common sense before you lose yourself.
4:42PM had a nigga jumpin' up and doin' the oak tree for a minute..
Real Talk: when this story first broke, I called PhotoShop blackmail plot...
But like I said, he ain't a pilot or surgeon with a drug or drinking problem. this ain't endangering anybody else so I say:
"NEXT!"
Amazing. It's amazing how we had a good twenty comments without anyone being disrespectful or homophobic, only for Chocolate ice to come jack it up.
