Sexy See-Through Shower Gets Peeping Tom Neighbors Excited

So imagine your neighbor builds an addition to their home. It juts out into the backyard, it's made of clear glass, and you can't help but notice it. Is it a porch? A balcony? A viewing room? Why, no, there's a shower head there and it's ... well ... an outdoor shower! When one couple decided to build a completely see-through glass shower overlooking their Brooklyn neighborhood, more drama than an episode of Real Housewives ensued. A nosy neighbor (New Yorkers don't speak to each other but we spy like crazy) took a photo and sent it to city blog Gothamist, which posted the photo and explained how neighbors imagined the couple moving into the townhouse would be hosting "orgies" and wished that they were "better looking" and "more famous." There goes the neighborhood ...

It all started when two lawyers, who were renovating the brownstone to move into with their three kids, decided to build the outdoor shower off the second story over their backyard. Since this is Brooklyn, backyards are small, and neighbors are staring directly into your backyard -- or your shower, as the case may be.

It didn't take long before more than one neighbor snapped a photo, even figured out who the new owners were, and sent it to a website. One neighbor wrote:

It looks pretty nice, and I think it can fit a party of eight at least.

And about the couple, the tipster wrote:

[They are] not unattractive; I wish they were hotter and famous.

She also added:

The other neighbors are all talking about it. You can't miss it. I think we all thought it was a joke or that there would be curtains, or that it wasn't really a shower. But it is. And there's another shower in the window directly above it.

The lawyer couple, who were horrified to find themselves the subject of so much titillating gossip, then taped a letter to their shower that read:

Dear Neighbors, We are still under construction and we regret that our design, which was approved by the Landmarks and the city, has alarmed you. It has always been our plan to put up privacy coverings on our shower, which we anticipate will be installed in the coming weeks. Of course, the shower cannot be used until then. We are dismayed and a bit heart sick at the attention our half-finished house has created ... We look forward to a day when we know our neighbors well enough to discuss any concerns over coffee, and not in newspapers and on gossip sites on the Internet.

Dude, you live in Brooklyn. All your neighbors are bloggers! What exactly did you expect?! You didn't build an outdoor shower in the Mojave Desert.

Still, these neighbors were pretty nosy and gossipy. Perhaps they could have just waited to see what happened before they assumed the neighbors would be having full-frontal viewing parties in their see-through shower.

Anyway, looks like the Peeping Tom neighbors won't get their jollies after all. Move along, folks, nothing to see here! (Dang it.)

Have you ever had your neighbors gossip about you? Would you ever have an outdoor shower?

Fergie's 'Gayby' Shower Was an Extravaganza Filled With Celebrities, Drag Queens and Cocktails for All

Fergie's baby gayby shower (dubbed as such by the singer since her gay BFFs threw it for her) was this weekend, and by all accounts, it was an amazing, fun-filled extravaganza. Celebrities, family, and friends packed the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills in anticipation of the arrival of the singer's first child, a son she and her husband Josh Duhamel are expecting.

She tweeted a picture of herself, looking amazing, with a caption that reads, "Say My Name" by her belly. "It's gabyshower day! He's trying to talk." Adorable.

According to Us Weekly, Fergie was "absolutely glowing" during the event, and the party was attended by many of Hollywood's hottest including, Julianne Hough, Adam Lambert, Lance Bass, Kelly Osbourne, Molly Sims, and Rupaul. There was face painting and balloon animals for the kids, and delish food and drinks for the adults, as well as a drag performance of "Let's Hear It for the Boy."

It all sounds like a rockin' good time and definitely not a typical boring baby shower, but there's just one little thing that bugged me when I read about the shower, a thing that irks me when done at any baby shower really.

According to E! cocktails were flowing. Being served was Cuca Fresca Organic Cachaca, Tallarico Vodka, and Ferguson Wine, which included a signature cocktail, "The Hot Mamma," in the mom-to-be's honor. "People were going wild for the Hot Mamma cocktail," a source said. People reports that Patron Ferg-aritas were also served.

And that's great ... but Fergie, of course, couldn't imbibe with the rest of them. Which brings me to my little pet peeve about baby showers -- should alcohol really be served when the guest of honor can't have any?

Most pregnant women are around plenty of people and situations in which others drink alcohol, and it's not a huge deal. But when it's your very special day, do people really need to drink? Sure you want everyone to have a good time, but being the only sober one around a bunch of tipsy people isn't always fun. If the guest of honor was allergic to peanuts, it's not like you'd have a bunch of peanut butter treats, right? It just seems a bit impolite.

As a guest, I love a good cocktail at a baby shower, and everyone wants their guests to enjoy themselves. So I get it in some regards, but I still feel like it's some sort of breach of etiquette.

It didn't seem to bother Fergie, however, which is what really matters. So cheers to them. We can't wait to meet this little guy.

Do you think alcohol should be served at baby showers?
