- <p> Lights! Camera! Lawsuit! Private lives can suddenly become
- painfully public when the video camera is turned on, and this
- time the scene was particularly steamy. All the trouble started
- last summer, when Hollywood heartthrob Rob Lowe went to Atlanta
- to attend the Democratic National Convention. According to a
- lawsuit, the 25-year-old actor wasn't just politicking during
- his stay in the city.

- <p> An Atlanta mother alleges that Lowe picked up her
- 16-year-old daughter at a trendy downtown nightclub, then took
- her and a 22-year-old woman back to his hotel room. The result,
- says the mother, was a little homemade porn. Lowe had no comment
- but, judging by copies of the videotape that were circulating
- last week, the ensuing romp was hardly Oscar material -- or even
- a candidate for a summer rerun. The reviews, however, could turn
- out to be downright unfavorable for Lowe. The Brat Packer's
- alleged performance may get the thumbs-down from Georgia
- officials, who were investigating the case for possible criminal
- charges after the girl's mother filed a civil suit against the
- star.
