This must be quite embarrassing for the polygraph profession. :-[

Well, that's pop culture for you.

It must be accurate, I read it in the Enquirer!

Nick Savastano, a member of the American Polygraph Association who gives lie detector tests for the Fox gameshow The Moment of Truth, was hired by Us Weekly to polygraph celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton regarding the latter's recent claim to have French kissed musician John Mayer.

The polygraph examination was conducted in Hilton's walk-in closet, and questions were asked by Us Weekly entertainment editor Jeffrey Epstein whilst Savastino operated the polygraph instrument, giving real-time feedback on whether Hilton's answers were true or false.

On his website, Savastano also lists the California Association of Polygraph Examiners among his affiliations, though that site's roster does not presently include his name.

Here are some frame grabs from Us Weekly's video of the polygraph examination:

The lie detector in action!

Epstein grills Perez Hilton. In the video, his questions appear to have been written on a copy of Us Weekly

Nick Savastano needs but one hand to operate the polygraph instrument!
