Pete Rose Girlfriend to Pose Nude. Another Man Not Aging Well

Pete Rose, once baseball's darling, then baseball's scourge is at it again. Peter Rose who is 68 is pimping out his girlfriend, Kiana Kim to the nude modeling profession. Kiana Kim who is in her twenties is about to take part in an audition for Playboy. (Pimping as in: to advertise, promote.)

Touting how lovely and hot Kiana Kim is, Pete Rose is "managing" her modeling debut. She's beautiful, young and educated says Pete Rose. Let's just hope that the Playboy people like her." Call me old and out of touch, but here we go again with an old fart trying to be somebody (again) with a young and highly developed gal on his arm.

Why would Kiana Kim want to have nude photos taken? Let's see, she's young, there's money, celebrity and attention to be gained, all in one swoop. It would appear that no one is watching out for what's best for Kiana Kim. It sure isn't Pete Rose. Another girl gone astray and about to make headlines. One of many that have gone the Playboy/nude route and Kiana Kim won't be the last.

The thing that makes this story a bit different is that a one time baseball hero named Pete Rose is acting sort of like a pimp. (Pimping in this case meaning to advertise or to promote.)Pimping out a girlfriend for nude photo shots is beyond the pale. Pete Rose, who could be seen recently hosting the WWE RAW apparently is running from his age. Sorry Pete, pimping out Kiana Kim is NOT going to make you more handsome and swarthy as you may or may not have been in your earlier years. A wanna be is not pretty Pete. But take heart, you are not alone, although I don't think Clooney actually got involved in the managing of his girlfriend's nude pictures.

Nudity is not new to the aging Pete Rose. The photograper for the Playboy shoot allegedly is Mikki Chernoff. She is a former Playboy model and former girlfriend of Peter Rose.

Whether its an aged Barbara Walters writing a book about the cheating she did with a married man or Peter Rose pimping his girlfriend, Kiana Kim out to Playboy, its a shame that celebrities can't grow old gracefully. It's an even bigger shame when someone like Pete Rose has to drag a young woman (Kiana Kim) into the scheme of trying to stay young. You can't go back Pete. Not even with a beauty like Kiana.
