Remember lovely Cher Tenbush [right], SMU grad and winner of "Beauty and the Geek II"? Well, she's trying to make it in Hollywood now and has hired a publicist -- and that publicist is already on orange alert. From the NY Post:

Tenbush's flack has fired off a breathless note to newspapers and magazines "respectfully" asking that all photos of [porn star Ron] Jeremy holding onto her at the Reality Remix Really Awards show last week not be used.

The rep said Tenbush "was surprised and appalled" when Jeremy - star of such classics as "Boobs a Poppin' " and "Colossal Orgy 2" - "imposed himself on the photos, grabbing her waist" as paparazzi snapped away.

"She does not respect his career and wishes to discourage publication of any photos which make it appear that she condones pornography. She particularly regrets that, when she realized who had grabbed her, her response was one of those so-horrified-that-all-you-can-do-is-laugh reflexes that so ill reflect the revulsion one feels."

Jeremy, a former teacher with a master's degree in education, says, "Does she have a problem with teachers? Does she have a master's? She can kiss my dissertation!"
