...increasingly difficult to maintain a normal relationship with constant intrusion into our private lives," they said. But the British tabloids are awash in breathless speculation about the true reasons for the breakup, most of which basically blame Mills, who had a rough childhood before becoming a topless model and catwalk star and who lost her left leg in 1993 after being struck by a police motorcycle. She has been called a gold-digger;unstable; a publicity hog; jealous of his fame; she supposedly upbraided him about his style and his marijuana smoking; she won't tour with him; his children...
...iteration of our democratized just-in-time celebrity culture. Club Libby Lu, a fast-growing chain of mall stores owned by Saks, provides the setting and accessories for elaborate makeover parties for girls as young as 4 at a relatively reasonable $21 a head.

Shin Akamatsu launched his Joias line at the festival and received more orders than the established labels did. "We struck gold right from the beginning," says the creative director, who saw $4.2 million in sales in five months. Other brands plan to present new lines at the next event...
...play’s bold updates.Created by Riccardo Hernandez, the set transforms the Loeb Mainstage into an isthmus between a divided audience, some of whom must cross the stage to reach their seats. The stage itself is a shallow sandpit surrounded by a metal mesh walkway. A catwalk runs high above one end of the stage which the actors reach by climbing ladders that are occasionally propped against it. Individual scenes are set, in part, by limited furniture, but mostly by an elaborate system of lights that descend from the ceiling—globe lights in two sizes, chandeliers...
