Howard Gensler | Model getting a couple things off her chest

OH, WE'VE gone to Carolina in our minds . . . Wrongly believing that our crazed culture has a limit to its bizarreness, Tattle learned yesterday from Fox News and Sweden's The Local, that ex-"Big Brother" champion Carolina Gynning (she won the 2004 edition in Sweden, has been a model in German Playboy and sings under the name of Bambi) will have her double D-cup breast implants removed . . . and auction them off on eBay.

H, WE'VE gone to Carolina in our minds

. . .

Wrongly believing that our crazed culture has a limit to its bizarreness, Tattle learned yesterday from Fox News and Sweden's The Local, that ex-"Big Brother" champion Carolina Gynning (she won the 2004 edition in Sweden, has been a model in German Playboy and sings under the name of Bambi) will have her double D-cup breast implants removed . . . and auction them off on eBay.

All proceeds will go to charity.

And not to Feed the Children.

Carolina, it seems, is tired of lugging around her giant fake breasts and has decided to lose the extra weight after 10 years.

"Everybody talks about them and it feels like they hide my true identity," Carolina wrote in Punkt SE. " . . . I still think large breasts are nice, but there's got to be a limit somewhere! I currently have a double D-cup and plan to go back down to my natural level, which is a C-cup."

(And as we've all learned this cold season, a cup of C every day is good to fight off colds.)

"I may be tired of my plastic boobs now," Carolina continued, selfishly refusing to think about the rest of us, "but the implants have given me a lot of pleasure over the years. That's why I want them to be of some use, so they can provide pleasure for somebody else. Somebody who has a difficult life."

Ick. The thought of one woman building up her chest and self-esteem with another woman's faux boobs gives us the skeevies.

Besides, those babies are big enough to bulk up a whole sorority of flat-chested girls.

Rosie vs. Donald, round whatever

Donald Trump has called Barbara Walters a liar and Rosie O'Donnell a "degenerate."

Yesterday, both fired back.

"Well, he's at it again," said Rosie, referring to a letter written to her by Trump and reported yesterday in Tattle. The letter said Barbara had told him that working with Rosie on "The View" is like "living in hell."

"That poor, pathetic man," said Barbara, the audience carrying on as if Rosie had just yelled "Confetti!"

Rosie high-fived Barbara and co-hosts Joy Behar and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. "You know, he just can't - he just can't let go, but we're moving on," Walters said.

The co-hosts referred to Trump as "he" and "that guy," so halt that moving on for one more minute.

"The man is obsessed with me, and I'm happy to say his show tanked," Rosie said, a reference to the lower-than-expected ratings of "The Apprentice."

Trump replied via a statement sent to "The Insider," "Extra" and anyone else who would listen:

"They didn't even have the courage to mention me by name," he wrote. "It was sad to see Barbara read her statement off a cue card."

Trump added, "Barbara has become a sad figurehead dominated by a third-rate comedian, and I now wish she had not recently chosen me as one of the "10 Most Fascinating People."

You deserve it. That you could get so riled up over something so trivial is fascinating.

Tattbits

* The Broadway-bound production of "Grease" sold $1.3 million worth of tickets during the first two days tickets were on sale.

Patrons now get to watch NBC's "Grease: You're the One That I Want" and wait seven months to see if they're going to get their money's worth.

If not, at least they're getting it with a little "Grease."

* Former British glam rocker

Gary Glitter, convicted of molesting two Vietnamese girls, may be released early from his three-year sentence, a prison official said yestersday.

Glitter, 62, is on a list of inmates being considered for early release as part of next month's Lunar New Year celebrations, that special time when Vietnam reduces the terms of inmates with good prison records.

Under Vietnamese law, prisoners can be nominated for early release if they have behaved well and their fellow inmates recommend it. (Can they also be nominated for "Extreme Makeover: Cell Edition"?) Nearly everyone in the jail voted for Glitter to go.

Yeah, because he's a creepy, old, child molester.

* There will be a smaller slice of

Bree on "Desperate Housewives."

Marcia Cross, 44, who is expecting twins in April with her stockbroker-husband, Tom Mahoney, has been told to stay in bed by her doctor.

This is far different from when Eva Longoria was told to stay in bed by "Housewives" creator Marc Cherry.

* As seen on "Extra," Robin Williams gave Britney Spears advice at the People's Choice Awards: "Girl, you don't go out with Paris Hilton," he told her. "She is not your friend. I bought my kids a Paris Hilton doll and it dragged the other dolls down to her level."

* The Hollywood Reporter re-

ports HBO is developing an unscripted series from Larry Charles that will focus on a day in the life of Kanye West.

Talk about an interesting pair, West is a multiplatium rapper and Charles has been a writer for "Seinfeld," a producer of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and "Entourage" and, most recently, the director of "Borat."

* Hilary Swank is dating her

manager and Courtney Thorne-Smith ("Melrose Place," "Ally McBeal," the seductive schoolgirl on "Hill Street Blues") has married her agent.

She wed Roger Fishman on New Year's Day, "at her home in a small, private ceremony," her spokesman, Jim Broutman, said yesterday.

Oh, so this whole wedding story is "According to Jim."

* George Michael, who was ar-

rested Sept. 30 after being found by police passed out in his car, pleaded innocent yesterday to charges of being unfit to drive and possessing marijuana.

Sure he's fit to drive now. *
