LaLa Vazquez (newly wedded to Carmelo Anthony) has her car up for sale. I mean, new husband equals new ride, right?
You can check it out at eBay Motors at . Also at that site is a video of LaLa loving her car.
“It took three months to redo it,” she says in the ad. “I want to switch it up.” She says the buyer will “get all the attention in the world and be the coolest person in the world, because no one has a hot pink Range Rover.”
More deets on the ’06 RR with 36,298 miles: It’s painted “LaLa Pink,” developed for her by Sherwin Williams; custom upholstery with microphones stitched in; $10,000 STRUT Grill; two manifolds on the exhaust to give it “a growl sound” and the name “LaLa” stamped on the back of the can. You’re not sneaking in or out of town in these wheels.
The top bid stands at $35,100 on Monday — a bargain for a LaLa mobile. A portion of the sale goes to charity. The auction ends Saturday.
The car was LaLa-ized by Caponez Kustomz, owned by Denverite Vett Capone and the destination of many a celebrity auto.
The play’s the thing
Cherry Creek North has it all — almost. Longtime resident Toni Saiber has thought for years that the tony neighborhood needed a theater. She wants to start one, small to “test the waters” and see if there is interest. Elway’s on Wednesday night is quite a lot of theater for me, but she wants something legit.
The plan is to produce the play “Love Letters” over Valentine’s Day weekend (Feb. 10-13, 2011) in the showroom of Shaver-Ramsey Oriental Rug Store at Third and Josephine. The plan is also to get some local celebs to play the couple in the two-character play — maybe John and Helen Hickenlooper, Chauncey and Piper Billups. I hear the Post’s Penny Parker and Greg Henry are signed up.

I do, I do
The “Vows” column in Sunday’s NY Times featured the July 31 Denver wedding of Anne Stephens and Preston Lloyd.
These two look like they stepped out of the upcoming book “True Prep.” Lloyd and Stephens met at the University of Virginia, he stayed on for law school, she went on to Stanford.
Stephens is the daughter of the socially prominent Tom and Alice Stephens of Greenwood Village — he’s the former head of Johns Manville, she’s been active in Girls Inc. Anne, once described by Denver Post society editor Joanne Davidson as an “accomplished equestrienne,” was a debutante at the Central City Flowers Girls and the Debutante Ball in 2001. The groom is a lucky dog.
They’re both beautiful with impeccable manners, now young lawyers living in the south. They are pictured in the NY Times cutting the five-tiered wedding cake with a sword. It all seems so unfair — yet so perfect.
