...secretive and mannered man who works out of Republican Party offices, was hired by the forum to raise funds. In addition to his fee, an ex-forum official told TIME, the organization had to pay a 10% commission for money raised by associates of Gaylord. Forum president John Bolton sought in vain to stop the arrangement, the source said. The reason: Gaylord earned substantially more in consulting fees and commissions than he raised in his 15-month stint...
...those stars who like the thought of being a published author but don't want to go to the trouble of hiring a ghostwriter, there is an alternative: children's books. This fall the two biggest pens are wielded by MICHAEL BOLTON and JOHN TRAVOLTA. Bolton's The Secret of the Lost Kingdom, the story of a prince who leaves his father's castle and lives as a peasant, will give readers heartache or heartburn, depending on how they feel about Bolton, particularly since Kingdom's long-tressed hero bears an uncanny physical resemblance to his creator.

...Broadway hit, Little Shop of Horrors. The quintet of Muses, like Little Shop's black-thrush trio, tells the story, doing justice to the jaunty R.-and-B. inflections ("and then along came Zeus") of David Zippel's serviceable lyrics.

The event is for Gephardt's congressional-campaign coffers, which of course can be converted to a presidential war chest in a snap. Gephardt is determined to show the smart money in Washington that he can compete with AL GORE at fund raising. The event is a very early...
Exactly how badass and hard-rocking a dude is MICHAEL BOLTON? After a sweaty, gut-wrenching, hair-flinging concert, what does he like to knock back? A Red Zinger or Lemon Zinger tea, apparently. Or Cherry 7-Up and Raspberry Ginger Ale. And when he gets a hankering for something harder, he pops peanut M&Ms. We know this courtesy of Australian concert promoter Michael Coppel, who's suing Bolton for allegedly backing out of a deal to tour that country for $1.2 million, and who thoughtfully included a list of Bolton's backstage demands in his court papers...
