...droll, brave impersonation, Rubell is a starstruck lout, a user-abuser, seductively snaky, cheerily malevolent; he could be Lolita's Clare Quilty without the gaudy wordplay. It'd be fun to see a movie about this Rubell. Alas, 54 focuses on the kids who worked for him: Shane the blond busboy (Ryan Phillippe), Anita the coat checker (Salma Hayek) and other cutie losers. The film tries to toss Saturday Night Fever's bridge-and-tunnel dreamers into the '70s' hottest disco. But for that to work, you need verve, edge and Travolta. All those are absent here...
...they have done in the past. A once loved mayor with nearly universal name recognition, Flynn has a gift for working a crowd and a reputation for excessive drinking that was examined last fall in a front-page story in the Boston Globe. Clapprood is a raspy-voiced bleached blond who jumped from a stint in the state legislature to a gig as one of New England's most famous--and raunchiest--radio personalities. (On the air she once asked Fabio, the romance-novel cover model, if he has "big private parts.") The mayor of Somerville, Michael Capuano, showed strength...
...Buffett looks like an Islamorada bonefishing guide: stocky and squint-eyed, with seaworthy legs and skin that's leathery from the sun. The hair that used to hang in long blond sheets has fallen out; the famously droopy moustache is gone. And though he is 25 years away from the Key West beach-bum days that make up the heart of his myth, he still has gregarious charm, an elfin smile and a bottomless well of stories to tell. That's not the whole picture, of course. "He's incredibly outgoing and confident when he switches it on," says...
...Prince of Key West. One night in 1971, Buffett was drinking, singing and passing the hat in the Chart Room bar when he met a radiant honey blond named Jane Slagsvol, who'd come to town for spring break from the University of South Carolina. The next night he saw her again, "wearing a tight, long pink dress that made a lasting impression on me." Jane moved in with Buffett and never did get back to school. They were married in 1977--the year Margaritaville hit--at an all-night Aspen blowout (the wedding band was the Eagles). But after...
...spotted Monica Lewinsky last week as she made her way quietly from Los Angeles to midtown Manhattan wearing a blond wig and dark glasses, it wasn't just her disguise at work. The girl we know so well, the one in the flirty beret on the Rose Garden rope line, is gone now, ground up by the machinery of investigation and fame. This new Monica is still warm, puts people at ease, pays attention to them when they speak, but she watches out for herself in a way she never had to before. The prosecutor whom she had viewed...
