Yesterday I posted a newslink reporting that Olympic Gold-Medalist Michael Phelps had brought home his new girlfriend to meet his family on Thanksgiving Day. At first, I thought it was a very sweet story … until I learned from TMZ that Phelpsie’s new chick, Caroline Caz Pal, is a cocktail waitress from Las Vegas, NV who has a penchant for posing for topless photos. HMMMM. Here is a very cute photo of the lurvers:

Michael Phelps has taken another lap with his girlfriend – a big one. She’s spending Thanksgiving in Baltimore with him and his family. The Olympic champ has been dating Las Vegas cocktail waitress Caroline “Caz” Pal, 26, for about two months. The two met after his record-setting performance in Beijing last summer. “She’s there [in Maryland] meeting his family for the first time,” a source close to Pal tells PEOPLE. Along with dating Pal, a waitress at the Palms Casino Resort’s Moon Nightclub, Phelps is spending time in Vegas working on his poker game. Sources tell PEOPLE he’s hoping to participate in the 2009 World Series of Poker. He recently made it to the final table of the Caesars Palace Poker Classic. “It was fun!” he told PEOPLE after the tournament. “It’s just like a game that I could become better at and use some of my competitiveness at the poker table.”
LOL … the poor guy has to spend his time learning to play poker in Vegas while his girlfriend is bizzy earning tips at the Moon nightclub … not exactly a romance made in heaven but … I guess it works. In fine TMZ fashion, HERE is a gallery of photos of Caz doing her thing at various places around Sin City, sometimes with clothing and sometimes without, to give you a better understanding of who, exactly, has stolen Phelpsie’s heart. I wonder what his mother has to say. Better yet … I wonder what y’all have to say :)
