No YouTube phenom has been as titillating and mortifying as the strange case of Tricia Walsh Smith, the estranged wife of Broadway mogul Phillip Smith, who decided to spice up her divorce proceedings with YouTube videos exposing his porn collection and other private tidbits. Tricia even filmed herself calling her hubby's assistant and ranting about his nuptial shortcomings to his embarrassed assistant. But while we may have watched with detached fascination, Tricia's divorce judge Harold Beeler wasn't quite as amused. Calling her performance "a calculated and callous campaign to embarrass and humiliate her husband," Beeler let their pre-nuptial agreement stand yesterday. Which means the newly ex-wife walks away with just $750,000. Speaking of walking away, that's just what she'll have to do with her swanky Park Avenue apartment. But we'll always have the memories, Tricia.
