Denise Richards shows off her body on the cover of Shape magazine this month. She also tries to win people over by defending her decision to use her kids in her new reality show. She also tries to explain for the millionth time that she was not BFFs with Heather Locklear and how unfair it was to get all of that bad press, plus how she fell victim to Charlie Sheen airing their dirty laundry when they split. Here are some highlights from the interview:

About putting her daughters in her reality show:

“I’ve been criticized for putting my daughters on the show. But my daughters are my life. How could I do a show about my life without them? I want the show to be real. There’s been so much stuff written about me. I want people to make their own judgments and their own decisions.”

About stealing Heather’s man:

“I can’t tell you how hurtful it was to read this in the press. I would never steal another woman’s husband. Period. And I will say this: If Heather and I really were friends, I would never have gotten together with Richie. She was not my best friend. And we were not friends when I started dating him.”

About her public divorce from Charlie:

“I filed court papers that then became public. I called Charlie and asked him, ‘Why do you have to air our dirty laundry? Why did you have to bash me? Why can’t you just say it’s a private matter?’ In the end, it’s the girls who suffer. I just want them to have a good relationship with their dad.”

Boo hoo. Poor girl, she was just a victim in all of this. Let’s all give her a chance now and support her new reality show so she can make a few bucks.
