PHOTOS! Pictures of Levi Johnston in Playgirl will not be as promised. Levi Johnston’s Playgirl pics had months of promises from Johnston (or Ricky Hollywood as Sarah Palin calls him) delivered via manager Tank Jones to press.

Today, those promises are in a different boat.

This comes as Sarah Palin calls Johnstons’ handlers who include Tank Jones as being untruthful to the press. Let’s recap Tank Jones’ own statements. You decide.

Tank Jones’ promises had included the following statements. Jones told the NY Post on Ocotber 27 he was “90 percent sure” that Johnston would appear full frontal. “We’re working out the actual details day by day and have come to a very happy conclusion”. On October 29 Tank repeated the statement to TMZ “Everything’s gonna hang out.” On November 13 to US Magazine, Tank again said “People are going to see more of Levi than they thought”. More than they thought?

So much for Jones’ claims. The magazine’s spokesperson Daniel Nardicio tells the Daily News quite a different story Monday and even calls out Jone’s claims. “He did not give full front as his manager Tank (Jones) reported he would.”

Johnston is getting paid $100,000. On Monday, Sarah Plain told Oprah “I don’t know if we call him Levi.

“I hear he goes by the name Ricky Hollywood now. So if that’s the case, we don’t want to mess up his gig he’s got going.” Here are other pics of Johnston:

In fact, Palin called out people who are “handling” Johnston as spreading untruths about her family.

“The whole premise of Levi every having lived with Bristol is false, and from there, though, I mean, you take the foundational untruth and you can kind of measure all other things that he’s saying.

“He’s a teenager. I don’t think he realizes quite yet what it is that he is being handled and orchestrated around - for him to be participating in this. But it all comes down to this most beautiful baby boy, just a precious, precious child.”

No comment by Tank or Johnston to the magazine and Palin’s remarks.

PHOTO! Here is a picture of Ricky Hollywood (aka Rikki Hollywood); yes Levi Johnston is Ricky Hollywood according to Sarah Palin.

Palin and “Hollywood” both had … revealing .. updates Monday. First Palin told Oprah that Johnston now goes by the nickname.

“I hear he goes by the name Ricky Hollywood now. So if that’s the case, we don’t want to mess up his gig he’s got going.”

Then Levi made another revelation - that he’s not revealing much at all. Despite reports for months that Johnston would show front and rear in full force, reports today say that Levi didn’t give it during his upcoming magazine shoot. “He did not give full frontal as his manger Tank reported he would” says Playgirl’s Daniel Nardicio to the Daily News.

You might be in favor of going rouge, but TWILF is making people go to the urban dictionary. Urban Dictionary’s TWILF definition is “Tweep I’d Like To Follow”.

Current TV is the cause of the twittering about TWILF today. “The Stupid” aired a cartoon parody that featuref Sarah Palin with a Brian Williams.

Brian Williams exclaims in the toon “Sarah Palin twittered … that’s right, tweet are now news.” Then an image of Palin, rimless frames and all, appearrf with the TWILF reference.The attempt at humor appeared to be lost with the net asking Monday what exactly is a TWILF.

Did you think Sarah Palin is a TWILF? Better yet, did you know what a TWILF is? The definition of a TWILF  in a new parody cartoon is leaving many not getting the joke because they aren’t getting the definition either.

TWILF stands for TWEEP I’d Like to Follow. It was used during the Current TV cartoon spoof “The Stupid” and depicts Sarah Palin twittering.

Ironically, Current TV has reported financial problems of late, while Palin’s book is expected to be one of the biggest publishing hits of winter 2009. During the program, Brian Williams said “Sarah Palin twittered … that’s right, tweet are now news.”

The toon also features Palin using the Twitter account Gun-Ho.
