Levi Johnston isn't laughing about a Tonight Show skit that mocked him.
On the NBC late night show Wednesday, William Shatner performed a Beat-poet rendition of Twitter posts believed to be written by Johnston, 19. ("What's the deal with taxi drivers not speaking English, is it a law against it?" Shatner read.)
Turns out, the posts were really those of a Johnston impostor.

"We are demanding a retraction," Johnston's manager Tank Jones tells Usmagazine.com. "We are pissed. For a major network to come on TV and report something without fact checking ... wow. You can say what you want to say, but don't lie."

Johnston - who hasn't seen the skit - has "never had a Twitter account and was never on Facebook," Jones tells Us. "He took his MySpace down five years ago."
Adds Jones, "People are looking for some sensational story so bad. Most of the outlets we haven't even went to."

New York Post's Page Six also reports that Johnston is "getting cold feet" about his upcoming Playgirl appearance because he is "worried about how his manhood may look."
But Jones tells Us, "No, we have not discussed Levi's manhood. We're ready."

When you act like an a**, you deserve to get made fun of. He has no one but himself to blame
Hmmm, funny how he wasn't demanding a retraction when SNL had extremely derogatory comments about his former girlfriend and her dad in one of their skits! Or David Letterman. Ridiculous for anyone to expect "fact checking" on a comedy skit!!! Most of the news agencies don't bother to fact check any more.
get a sense of humor.
this kid is not a 'star'. talk about fact checking.
just word 'manhood' is appealing...
I would not want to see this FOOL on the cover of ANY magazine.
Ummm, he's not a Playboy model. He's an opportunistic dufus who accepted money to take off his clothes. That does not a model make.
Ug. Why are we still paying attention to this nobody? He's a loser who's 15 minutes was up when Sarah lost the election!
Yeah Levi you better get a retraction on that one because something like that could wreck your squeaky clean rep...NOT! As if anyone cares, he's a d*uche either way!
Two peas in a pod. His agent is as dumb as he is.
OH WOW Karma is a b*tch isn't Levi......I LOVE IT!
Geesh, what a baby.
REGARDLESS OF WHAT ANYONE SAYS, I THINK HE SHOULD BE IN PLAYGIRL...A LOT OF WOMEN DO IT, WHEN THEIR 15 MINS IS OVER, THEY SHOW THE WORLD THEIR GOODS, SO WHY SHOULDN'T LEVI BE ALLOWED TO SHOW US HIS GOODS??? I WANT TO SEE HIS GOODS, I AM A WOMAN, AND I AM SOOOOO TIRED OF SEEING WOMEN'S BODIES ON DISPLAY...LET'S SEE SOME D*CK AND B*LLS ON DISPLAY...I AM DEFINITLEY WITH THE EXPLOITATION OF MEN'S BODIES, IF THEY WANT TO SHOW IT TO US. ENOUGH WOMEN ON DISPLAY, I WANT TO SEE MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think that it is funny that this tool has a manager
For God's sake . . . he has a manager? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Stay in alaska and take some parenting classes.
"Haven't even went to"??? That's a well spoken lawyer.
"You can say what you want to say, but don't lie." Seriously? He needs to tell his client that.
