What was left of Whitney Houston’s 1999 World Tour hit the auction block on Tuesday. The R&B diva fell more than $175,000 behind in storage bills to the Irvington, New Jersey facility where the items were held for nearly eight years.
A court order gave the storage company permission to open an auction to the public and hock Whit’s “weapons of fierceness” in an effort to recoup the outstanding storage bill.
More than one hundred fifty folks showed up to weed through W.H’s yard sell. Which, in addition to white lace thongs, included eight year old odor control foot spray, Tums, Junior Mints, customized evening gowns, Manolo Blahniks, a “throne,” a razor, a spoon, a bottle of Gatorade, an adhesive body bra, and a box of Altoids.
Some of soon-to-be ex-hubby Bobby’s Music Awards made their way onto the auction block-Talk about putting “everything he owes in a box to the left.” One lucky pillager even walked away with a whip that Bobby and Whitney used in a on-stage routine.
The ever-morphing Madonna is going to pose in provocative position in the June issue of W mag. Am I having a flashback?
Apparently not. Madonna, here in the 2006, will be featured by W mag in a 58-page spread. Big surprise, she will be reprising her earlier selves as an English horse-rider, “material girl” and “boy toy.” I’m glad she’s super sexy at 47, but at some point you have to say to yourself, “I’m getting older. I have children. My husband is fixing to leave me. I should take is easy.” Not Madonna.
Now you know WHY she wants to fuck around.
A new survey of make-up artists and hair stylists have named Scarlett Johannson as the most natural beauty. You know, that perfect alabaster skin and full lips. I have to admit that when I’m pouring over my Vogue (don’t make fun) she’s one of the women that really make want to punch them in the face. Okay, I’d make out with her first and THEN punch her.
Also named in the survey in 2nd and 3rd place were Kate Winslet and Catherine Zeta-Jones, both of whom are stunning in my book. Also named for the most natural good looks were male actors Orlando Bloom, Jake Gyllenhaal and the ever hot Johnny Depp. I could take or leave Orlando, Jake is adorable – but what is it about that scraggly crazy part playing french chick shagging guy that is so appealing? It’s a mystery, but I’d fuck him. I’m such a slut.
I was never a big Spice Girl fan. Too cavity-inducing sweet for me.
(Although I DID sorta like that “Holla” song. Guilty pleasure)
But while the other Spice Girls have dropped off the face of the “the people we give a shit about” world, Victoria “Posh” Beckham has emerged as a fashion icon and celebrity – despite her apparent lack of talent. Actually, I recall that she was pretty good at shakin’ her bon bon it in those videos. That’s something. Also, she landed the world’s hottest soccer player EVER, David Beckham. In the UK especially, Posh and Becks are celeb royalty. And despite her hoochie beginnings and pretensious name, Posh has actually turned out to be quite posh.
Check out her 10 Style Commandments and be amazed at how much friggin sense she makes.
