Is Matt Lauer’s Alleged Mistress Whitney Houston’s Trans-Sister?

Last week the gossips alleged 52-year-old Today show host Matt Lauer was cheating on his wife with “Whitney Houston’s singer-songwriter/producer step sister Alexis Houston.” It’s a juicy bit of gossip except that Whitney Houston’s rep says that Alexis is in no way related to Whitney and both Lauer and Alexis have denied any sort of affair. There is one rumor that Alexis hasn’t denied however—that she’s transgender.

According to a Page Six source (insert necessary skepticism), Alexis was born Stuart Wellington and had “a sex-change surgery three years ago after a man fell in love with the cross-dressing singer and paid for the operation.” Whitney Houston sued Alexis in 1996 for claiming to be her cousin, alleging Alexis used the false identity to defraud a New York doctor of $100,000. (Neither Alexis nor her lawyer Gloria Allred commented on Alexis’ alleged transgender identity or alleged fraudulent past during a press conference yesterday.)

It wouldn’t be shocking is Alexis is trans. At least not have as shocking as all the press she’s pulled piggybacking off of false rumors of bigger named celebrities.

      When you’re high on cocaine, as Lauer is rumored to often be, even Whitney Houston’s trans sister looks good when you’re horny and need to get your rocks off.

      @christopher di spirito: She looks fine, shut up. And why put trans in there as an adjective other than to associate it with something ugly?

      I rather fancy the notion of Lauer getting it on with a trans person, but in my fervid imagination, Matt’s partner is pre-op and they are switch-hitters.

      And, of course, a high-resolution leaked video.

      “blush”

      Lauer lost any chance of respect from me when he had an hour of primetime to demolish Larry Craig and pussied out of it.

      This rumor gains traction in light of Ann curry’s vamping, today, she made a reference to Big Ben having a sex change.
