Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart's 'Naked' Tape: Who's Who

Aug. 18, 2009 — -- Dr. McSteamy's life just got a little steamier.

A tape starring "Grey's Anatomy" hot doc Eric Dane, his actress-wife Rebecca Gayheart and former Miss U.S. Teen Kari Ann Peniche appeared on Gawker.com Monday afternoon. While no one is seen performing sexual acts, the three are seen nude in the video.

"This is an unfortunate incident where someone stole some property, personal property, among three very good friends," Peniche's manager, David Weintraub, told ABCNews.com today. "They were very good friends when the tape was filmed a few years ago. I don't know if they're good friends now."

An LAPD representative told ABCNews.com that police are looking into the release of the tape.

In the video clip, edited down from its original 12-minute length, Peniche, Dane and Gayheart prance naked around Peniche's Los Angeles apartment, lounge in a hottub and discuss their potential porn names -- a pop culture phenomenon in which people create a moniker out of the names of a childhood pet and the street they grew up on.

"My alter-ego name is Peter," Dane says. "My dog growing up was called Cocaine, and I lived on Manor Drive, so I'm Cocaine Manor."

Through it all, Dane, Peniche and Gayheart appear to be intoxicated. Midway through the clip, Gayheart says she has to lie down because she's "so high."

Marty Singer, who represents Dane and Gayheart, issued a statement to People.com Monday, saying, "This is simply a private, consensual moment involving a married couple, shot several years ago, which was never intended to be seen by the public."

Singer added, "Although the participants are nude, the tape is not a 'sex tape.' It is a private tape made for only my clients' personal use, and nobody has the right to exploit it. If anyone exploits the tape, they will be violating my clients' rights and will be exposed to significant liability."

Singer did not immediately respond to ABCNews.com's requests for comment.

Whatever its title, the video raises questions about all three parties and how they ended up in this situation. Below, a look at the major players in Hollywood's latest "naked" tape scandal:

Dane, 36, is best known for playing Dr. Mark Sloan, dubbed Dr. McSteamy for his bad boy good looks, on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy." Prior to scoring that breakout role, he acted in small parts on series including "Saved by the Bell" "Roseanne," and "Married With Children." In real life, Dane married Gayheart in 2004 and, in February, he told Ellen DeGeneres that the two were working on having children.
