PORNO FOR PEE-WEE
Sometimes even a kids'-show host needs to sit back, relax, loosen his bow tie...and take in a triple feature of porn. On July 26, 1991, Pee-wee's Playhouse host Paul Reubens had such a night out in Sarasota, Fla., leading to his arrest for indecent exposure. (He pled no contest and paid a fine.) Save a self-mocking MTV appearance two months later (''Heard any good jokes lately?''), Reubens laid low for the next decade.
CAREER IMPACT: MAJOR Reubens' comeback with 2001's Blow was overshadowed by a second arrest in '02, after photos of nude teens were found in his L.A. home. (He pled guilty to possession of obscenity, but maintained the photos were ''vintage erotica.'') This fall, Reubens has a recurring role on ABC's Pushing Daisies, and he's also written scripts for two more Pee-wee movies.
