Paris Hilton can have her wedding cake and eat it too, just not in St. Paul’s cathedral.
Hilton wanted to marry fianceé Paris Latsis in the same hallowed halls as Princess Diana. But a London official told Hello! magazine’s website, “Only royalty can marry on the cathedral floor. You can’t buy your way in, no matter how rich you are.”
A Hilton spokesperson confirmed the news, adding “she’s currently in Greece and it looks like (the wedding) will be happening there.”
Christopher Walken admitted he pretends it’s his birthday to get free cake.
“I sit in the make-up trailer very early in the morning and while the lady is patting my face with a brush, I look very sad,” Walken told the London Independent. “And sooner or later she’ll ask: ‘What’s the matter? You look a little down today.’ So, I’ll say: ‘I’m all right.’ Then she’ll finally ask again: ‘Come on. What is it?’ Then I reply: ‘It’s my birthday, and I’m sad, because I’m alone … and I don’t have a cake.’ … By lunchtime a cake is wheeled out with bottles of champagne, and we all have a lot of fun.”
Katherine Harris, the Florida secretary of state who helped George W. Bush get elected in his first presidential campaign, oversaw a program in which some diseased trees in Florida were treated with water provided by the trendy Kabbalah Centre, the Orlando Sentinel reported.
A program promoted by Harris, now a congresswoman from Florida, a rabbi and a cardiologist used the water to save canker-infested orange trees in 2001.
When contacted by the newspaper the Forward, Harris said she recommended the product after being told that “Israeli scientists” had produced the product, adding, “I deeply value Israeli technology.”
Courtney Love told the New York Daily News she has a new “personal trainer” to help her shed pounds. “Pamela Anderson runs with me up the steps of Pepperdine University. She’s like my personal trainer. I’m a size-30 jeans now,” said Love, 31, who has been drug and alcohol-free for almost a year since a Los Angeles court ordered her to enter a rehabilitation center in July 2004.
