Publicity stunts are weak

NEW YORK (CBS) Harry Hamlin and his wife Lisa Rinna appeared on the "Today" show yesterday, only to be told that their boutique in Sherman Oaks, Calif., had been robbed.

According to published reports, the 58-year-old star of "L.A Law" allegedly had $10,000 worth of designer clothing stolen, and Hamlin announced the news live on television.

The New York Post reported that during the couple's interview to promote their new books and reality show, Hamlin suddenly answered a call on his cell phone and said, "Our clothing store is being robbed as we speak," before adding, "ADT is useless...our alarm company was supposed to take care of this, and they did nothing."

Hamlin and Rinna's new reality show, "Harry Loves Lisa," debuts on TV Land tonight.




Three things learned from this story:

1) Their interview alone isn't going to be enough to gain viewers for their lame tv show.

2) Their store isn't getting enough customers so it consequently gets robbed at the same time they are doing an interview.

3) And Lisa Rinna's lips don't look any better than what they were.

But you already knew that of course.
