Dan Gross | Mitts, Feeley still an item

H

EATHER MITTS

and

A.J. Feeley

have neither broken up nor become engaged, Mitts told us yesterday. We asked the soccer star what was up with the status of the First Couple of Philadelphia Sports, because of confusion over their MySpace pages.

Mitts' page on the social site listed her relationship status as "Divorced," and sharp-eyed readers noticed that while Mitts used to have photos of the Eagles QB in her profile, they are gone.

The United States Womens Soccer player says the divorce line was a joke. Meanwhile, a page claiming to be Feeley's referred to his and Mitts' being engaged, but she says it was a fake profile, and a few other fake Feeley pages also exist. They're still dating.

Mitts says the only reason she has a MySpace page was to ward off identity theft. Seems a couple of hooligans had created a page claiming to be Mitts' and saying she was a lesbian, she recalls.

"They were having girls send naked pictures also. I was livid," Mitts says. "I can laugh about it now that it was taken off."

* Speaking of Mitts, who's training for

the World Cup in L.A., she'll be part of NBC-10's Fit Fest Sunday at the Convention Center.

Guests this weekend also include Ardmore native Kate Flannery of "The Office," "Biggest Loser" winner Erik Chopin, "Project Runway" winner Jay McCarroll, "America's Got Talent" winner Bianca Ryan, of the Northeast, and Emmy Award-winning actress Lainie

Kazan.

Kazan, here Saturday, is promoting awareness of DVT, or deep-vein thrombosis, which she suffered 25 years ago when a blood clot traveled to her lungs, causing a pulmonary embolism.

The "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" star spent some time in Ardmore in 1992 shooting "I Don't Buy Kisses Anymore," with Jason Alexander, and used to sing often at the Valley Forge Music Fair.

Cheesesteak movie nearly done

Filmmaker Ben Daniels says he'll shoot one of the final scenes of his documentary "This is My Cheesesteak" as the work-in-progress screens for the first time in a sold-out event Saturday at the Bridge (40th & Walnut).

Daniels, 22, says that steak purveyors and rivals from Pat's King of Steaks, Geno's Steaks, Tony Luke's, Steve's Prince of Steaks, and John's Roast Pork, will be on hand and posing for a group photo for the film.

The Syracuse film student was reared in West Philly and attended Friends Central.

Restaurateur Stephen Starr is also featured in the film, where he calls the $100 cheesesteak offered at his Barclay Prime "a marketing ploy."

Anyone for tennis?

Music mogul Kenny Gamble pledged his support to the Arthur Ashe Youth Tennis and Education Center at a recent reception at the Residences at Liberty Two.

Gamble was interested in the AAYTE's After-School Tennis 'n' Tutoring programs that take place daily at 50 city schools.

Meanwhile, the AATYE's annual fundraising gala, "Rally on Ridge," takes place April 27 at the AATYE (Schoolhouse & Ridge). For info, visit AsheTennis.org.

Out and about

"Project Runway" winner Chloe Dao and her boyfriend browsed around Tony (47 N. 3rd) while the designer was here the other day for a meeting with QVC.

* Yes, that was NBC-10's Deanna Du-

rante, running, in heels, through the airport Friday morning. Durante and her fiance, Tim, made it to their Southwest gate just in time for a flight to St. Louis.

* University of the Arts student Nicole

Tranquillo, who didn't last long in the top 24 on "American Idol," was a judge yesterday aboard the Spirit of Philadelphia (Columbus at Lombard Circle) as the ship auditioned performers for its on-board entertainment.

'Bad Girls' blunder

Cast members of Oxygen Network's "Bad Girls Club," will be at 32° (16 S. 2nd) between 5-9 p.m. Friday signing autographs as producers seek to cast women for the next season of the show. Must be 21+. We reported the hours incorrectly in yesterday's column. *
