Sexy CBS siren Lara Logan spent her days covering the heat of the Iraq war - but that was nothing compared to the heat of her nights.

The "60 Minutes" reporter and former swimsuit model apparently courted two beaus while she was in Baghdad, and has been labeled a homewrecker for allegedly destroying the marriage of a civilian contractor there, sources said.
Passions got so hot in the combat zone that one of her lovers, Joe Burkett, brawled in a Baghdad "safe house" with her other paramour, CNN war reporter Michael Ware, a source said.
The wife of Burkett, a US Embassy worker, claims the sultry 37-year-old correspondent seduced him while bullets flew overhead.
Burkett's wife, Kimberly, also accuses Logan of teaming up with him to take her 3-year-old daughter away, according to the source.
A close pal of Logan, who confirmed the allegations to The Post, said Burkett's marriage to Kimberly was already finished six months before they sparked up a relationship.
"She is not the cause of their divorce," the friend told The Post yesterday.
"It was going to happen."
The pal also said Logan was particularly hurt by the comments because she had met Kimberly Burkett and thought the two were "friendly."
Kimberly filed for divorce from her husband in January in a court near their hometown of Fredericksburg, Texas.
The husband, 36, and wife, 32, are now battling over custody of toddler Ashley.
Pals of Logan said that the divorce attorney is just grandstanding by dragging the rising television star into the Texas couple's split.
"Lara is not part of their divorce proceedings," a friend said.
"The simple truth is that this was a marriage that was breaking up. And that's the bottom line."
As for the other claims, pals admitted that Logan had a one-time fling with CNN reporter Ware - but denied that there was any sort of fight between him and Burkett in Baghdad.
"There was no screaming match," the pal said.
Tale of the love fight first broke on the freerepublic.com in December.
The scandal comes just as the former model's journalistic career is starting to skyrocket.
It's a stunning turn of events for the respected journalist, who once told The Washington Post that she "has no social life."
Yesterday, CBS announced, without a hint of irony, that she was given a new Washington assignment as chief foreign-affairs correspondent. She joined the network in 2002 and became a "60 Minutes" correspondent in 2006.
The network touted her as the only American reporter who was in Baghdad when the United States invaded in 2003.
Logan was born in Durban, South Africa. She has been going through a divorce from her husband of nine years, Jason Siemon, a former European-league basketball player.
"That is a very sad thing for Lara," a pal said.

I loved that whole "she courted two beaus" line, as if she was some sort of Southern Belle flirting on the back porch of Tara.
One good sneeze and she's out of that dress.
Like the dress !!! Lisa one sneeze just may do it...lol
that is what happens when you make no-talent models into "reporters"
