Hottie Of The Day: Australian Swimmer Stephanie Rice Says “Oi, Let Me Party, Yeah!?!”

So let’s just get this out of the way–when you go to Thailand to “party,” then don’t be shocked when you get back home and that partying has caused shit to blow up. That said, smoking Olympic swimming hottie Stephanie Rice is right to get all types of pissed because she wanted to go and just have a good night out. Now, Sydney’s Daily Telegraph ran photos some random dude took of her that night that’s caused an uproar down under, even though she’s been linked to lots of swimming dudes, including Michael Phelps and, possibly, Aquaman.

“Some of those photos from Thailand were kind of frustrating,” Rice told the Daily Telegraph.”I remember that night and I know who it was. This guy had asked for a photo with me and I said ‘Sure, no problem’ but then he kept taking photos of me having a good time with my friends, I just thought it was really out of line. I just find it really strange that people care.”

Well, when you’re as much of a hottie as you, of course they’ll care. Start feeling strange when they stop, Steph. We haven’t, as you can tell by the gallery of photos after the jump, including those of you doing your best Elaine from Seinfeld impression.

Let me just be normal, says Stephanie Rice [Daily Telegraph]
