There could be some dirty little secrets coming out in this year's election. The former attorney of Deborah Jeane Palfrey (also known as the infamous D.C. Madam), Montgomery Blair Sibley is attempting to release the names of 815 of her past clients, as well as the records of 40 other D.C. escort services. And in the lead-up to doing so, he's hinting that the up-until-now confidential records contain a name of someone connected to the 2016 presidential campaigns.

In Marvel's new "Guardians of the Galaxy," Star-Lord (Chris Pratt) cruises the galaxy in style, and now he wants to give fans a tour of his ship, the Milano. One thing that none of the million-dollar pads seen on MTV's "Cribs" ever had was an intergalactic spaceship, and, while the Milano may no longer be state-of-the-art, Star-Lord can still outmaneuver the bad guys and check his Twitter feed. Just don't bring a blacklight. Peep this: The video is good for a quick laugh, but also highlights the film's practical elements, which may be overshadowed by some of the CG effects. The Milano (named after "Who's the Boss?" and "Charmed" star Alyssa Milano) looks like an actual, working spaceship -- although one that's seen quite a bit of action -- courtesy of production designers Charles Wood, Ravi Bansal, Ray Chan and set decorator Richard Roberts. In theaters now, "Guardians of the Galaxy" also stars Zoe Saldana,...

One of the spacecraft production designer Charles Wood and his team designed for Marvel’s latest film was the Milano, Peter Quill’s Ravager ship.
On Twitter, the director fessed up to how the ship got it’s name.
For those of you who asked, yes, Quill’s ship The Milano is named after his awesome childhood crush @Alyssa_Milano. #GuardiansoftheGalaxy

Less high-tech technology was used in the design to give the idea that Quill wants to have more hands-on control and experience the ride—much like a driver who prefers stick over automatic.
Watch as actor Chris Pratt gives you a walking tour of the ship.
