  Hollywood is a place of fantasy. It’s a place where magic comes to life, dreams are realized both onscreen and in reality, and mere plebeians can become stars overnight.

The kit comes with underwear that reads “Peg Like a Queen” proudly across the bum and has a hole in front to insert a large, pink dildo for … well, for pegging your partner, I suppose. In…
