Alexis Houston, the woman who was alleged to have had sex with 'Today' show host
Matt Lauer, was allegedly born a man named
Wellington.
It was an unnamed source who spilled the beans about Alexis's sex-change surgery. The aspiring singer reportedly had the procedure done when she fell in love with a man who ended up paying for it. Speaking to the New York Post, the source said: "She told me they got married in Niagara Falls, but they have since separated."
Hollyscoop.com claimed, that Alexis and Lauer were involved in a passionate love affair that had been going on since 2007. Last Friday, Alexis held a press conference alongside attorney-to-the-stars and media hound Gloria Allred in midtown Manhattan outside an eatery. The perfectly poised diva addressed an anxious crowd of press and pedestrian onlookers and stated in a British accent: "I feel that my privacy and personal space has been invaded."
Alexis was sued by Whitney Houston in 1996 for claiming to be the singer's cousin. Whitney revealed that Alexis used her status as an alleged cousin to con a New York City doctor out of $100,000. Over the last few weeks however, the press has referred to Alexis as Whitney's half-sister.
In 2001, Alexis Houston produced a demo CD, 'All's Well,' that won rave reviews from some foreign press. Alexis states on her Web site that her passion for singing began at the tender age of 6 in a Newark, N.J., church choir.
With this revelation, the stew that is Alexis Houston's life continues to simmer.

Matt Lauer will NEVER admit to sleeping with this he/she. It's one thing to cheat on your wife with a woman but with a man! Hell noooooo!! LOL Matt Lauer would be the punch line for every comedian in the country.

If that media whore Gloria Allred is involved then Alexis Houston got paid to deny this story. The same thing happened with Tiger Woods nasty whore denying having sex with him and she was represented by Gloria Allred too. Big money in being a whore these days.

***Big money in being a whore these days***
That's only if you're white, and then you wouldn't be referred to as a "whore" but more like a victim. You can get paid big bucks for your story. If you're black, there's no money in it...but you're still a whore.
