The Playboy Playmate formerly accused of taking money from innocent children just won big in court -- because the lawsuit which claimed stole another woman's child support was just dropped.
Ida Ljungqvist's lawyer, Keith Fink, claimed the other woman decided against pursuing her lawsuit because she was told she faced a malicious prosecution action if she followed through with it.
Katrina Kantner filed the lawsuit on May 28 -- claiming Ida received $90,000 from her ex-husband, Doug ... all while Doug neglected his $10,000 monthly child support payments.
Ida's lawyer claims she was targeted simply because she is a celebrity.

Joanna Krupa has got one hilarious foot fetish -- or at least she does in this laughable low budget fetish video from back in the day ... complete with more tickle torture than anyone should ever have to endure.
TMZ has learned the Playboy bombshell and "Dancing with the Stars" competitor scored the starring role of "Head Nurse Regina" in the foot fetish/tickle torture film "No Shoes No Mercy" back in 2003 ... probably for some extra cash before her big break.
In the video, Krupa starts off by unleashing her fingers of fury on her female tickle partner ... then gets tied down on the hospital bed for an awkwardly awesome session of her very own.
As for Krupa's tickle partner? That's Sarah Kozer -- a reality TV regular you might recognize as the runner-up from "Joe Millionaire."

A former Playmate of the Year is suing the ex-boyfriend she claims brutalized her, threatened to kill her family .... and even attempted to pop her breast implants.
Dalene Kurtis, who won the Playmate title in 2002, wants $10 million from ex-BF James Daren Metropoulos, heir to the Bumblebee Tuna fortune.
Dalene claims, among other things, James
-- Beat her in the ribs with a baseball bat
-- Called her a "f**king whore," "ungrateful b*tch," and "ugly old Playmate"
-- Stomped on her chest and stomach
-- Choked her
-- Grabbed, punched, and kicked her
-- Spit on her
Dalene won a temporary restraining order against James early last month.

We've confirmed Levi Johnston plans to come out swinging -- the famous Palin-impaler is gonna go the full monty for Playgirl.
Levi's manager already said he was 90% sure the teen baby daddy would take it all off for the adult rag -- but now comes the confirmation ... in the form of the greatest statement ever:
"Everything's gonna hang out. We're talking full johnson."
His manager tells us Levi's gunning to shoot the nudie pics on November 16th ... the same day Sarah Palin makes her Oprah debut.
A Playgirl rep tells us of the shoot: "We're working on some athletic scene stuff for Levi: gyms, rinks - that sort of thing."

This is the closest you'll ever get to finding out if the carpet really does match the blue drapes.
TMZ has obtained the cover for Marge Simpson's November issue of Playboy -- and needless to say, she's got a bangin' bod for having popped her first kid out thirty years ago (Show debuted in 1989, Bart was 10 ... and still is).
We're told Marge also strips down for her three-page spread inside the magazine -- posing in a bunch of sexy cartoon lingerie.
Roll over, Jessica Rabbit.

It's good to see Holly Madison didn't let the small children in a candy store stop her from doing anything suggestive this weekend.
Holly showed off her sweet tooth (literally and figuratively) at the Sugar Factory in Las Vegas this weekend.
Might be the first time anyone in Vegas swallowed a worm without a bottle of tequila.

Bristol Palin's baby daddy Levi Johnston says he's going to drop his pants for Playgirl -- the only problem, he can't decide which side to show off.
We spoke to Levi's handler -- who is not Bristol -- who told us he's either gonna show "the front or the back" when he poses for the magazine sometime this month.
We're told Levi has been hitting the gym preparing for the shoot and has even hired a personal trainer to shape up...
...because spending that money on baby food and diapers would be too obvious.

Hugh Hefner claims his soon-to-be ex-wife Kimberley Conrad cheated on him before their marriage fell apart -- but that's not why he's finally demanding a divorce.
TMZ just spoke with the Playboy kingpin, who told us he made the decision to officially break it off with his estranged wife, and mother of his two children, strictly because she filed a $5 million lawsuit against him last month relating to the sale of a house they owned together.
As for why he had stayed married during the 11-years they have been estranged, Hef says, "At the time of the separation, I was happy to get a divorce ... I only remained married for the sake of the children at her request."
Hef told us that he was "faithful" during the time they were together, but says Kim had cheated on him "early in the relationship." Hef says he knows who the other person is, but would not reveal the identity.
Hef did reveal his frustrations with the lawsuit -- claiming he has paid Kimberley every cent that he agreed to pay her in their prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, adding, "I have been generous to a fault."

After eleven years of estrangement from his wife, Hugh Hefner finally made the move to end his marriage to former Playmate Kimberley Conrad.
On Friday, Hefner filed documents in L.A. County Superior Court seeking to dissolve their marriage, citing "irreconcilable differences." The docs say they were married on July 1, 1989 and have been separated since January 12, 1998.
Hefner had been supporting Kimberly and their two sons, who have been living in the house next door to the Playboy mansion.
But things got rocky this year when Hef sold that house, and then Conrad sued Hef -- accusing him of screwing her out of more than five million bucks.
UPDATE: In the docs, Hugh is asking the judge to set spousal support at $20,000 per month -- justifying such a small amount by saying he's already given Kimberly close to $12 million since their 1998 separation.
