Stacy Keibler Admits Vendetta Against Steelers

Her beloved Baltimore Ravens missed their chance to play for the championship, but Stacy Keibler still has a vested interest in who wins Sunday's Super Bowl.

"I'm absolutely rooting for the Packers," the long-legged actress and Dancing With the Stars alum tells PEOPLE. "But let's be honest, I know nothing about Green Bay ... but it doesn't matter to me, because I hate the Steelers."

For Keibler, 31, her open disdain towards all things black and gold goes further than just being a Baltimore native and a Ravens season ticket holder.

When she was only 18, Keibler whet her appetite for the spotlight as a Ravens' cheerleader – and recalls that even in the confines of her team's home stadium, the presence of die-hard Pittsburgh rooters was too much.

"Ravens-Steelers games were always intense, but I have a bone to pick with the Steeler fans," she said during last week's 1154 LILL Studio "Clutches for a Cause" event. "It's a personal vendetta, because they would drive to our stadium and they would scream so loud during our end-zone dance routines that we couldn't even hear the music!"

Detailing the results of their actions, Keibler said, "We would miss steps, and not one of us knew what we were doing because we couldn't hear the music!"

Surely, Keibler's cheers will be most audible should the Packers be victorious.

Holly Madison Talks Candidly About Her New BF

For the first time, Peepshow star Holly Madison has talked about her new romance and how she’s kept it under the radar for six months. “It’s serious enough that neither of us are seeing anybody else,” she told me. “We kept it out of the public spotlight because we had no reason to flaunt it and get caught up in a media circus.”

Holly and pop punk rocker Jack Barakat posed together at Lavo in the Palazzo and Tao in The Venetian when the platinum blond reality TV star had her first advance celebration last week of her 31st birthday, which is Dec. 23. Vegas DeLuxe had hinted about the romance when Jack, who is the vocalist and guitarist for All Time Low, joined Holly on her Florida vacation in September.

Holly told me: “We first met in June when he played in a concert here. We’ve taken it slowly, but we have been having fun ever since -- and I’m very happy. He came with me on my vacation, and I’ll be honest: I like him a lot. He’s funny, gorgeous and sexy!

“We don’t know where it’s headed. We both understand we’ve both got showbiz careers, and that means we don’t spend a lot of time together. He lives in Baltimore but gets to spend a lot of time in Los Angeles, so I hop over when he’s there, and he hops over here, too. I’m working Christmas Day with the show at Planet Hollywood, and he’ll be with his family back East, but we’re both definitely hoping to see New Year’s in together. It was great he was here for my birthday.”

“We’ll be back on TV the third week of January with all-new shows,” Holly told me. “They pushed up the air dates because we did so well with the first season, so we’re scrambling with all the shooting. We filmed my birthday party, so you’ll see Jack on one of the first new episodes.”

I asked Holly about their age difference, as at 22, he’s much younger. “I don’t think it has anything to do with age. I’ve had two romances since moving to Las Vegas. One was with somebody 12 years older than me, and the other was the same age, and neither worked out. I know people still think of me as one of Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends, and he of course was much older than me, but that was a whole different lifestyle and a different kind of dating.

“It’ll be another couple of years before I start thinking seriously about marriage and children. I’ve still got a lot career-wise that I want to achieve, so for now with Jack, it’s just a case of having fun together and not thinking about the future.”
