...week last summer was at Louis Boston, the independent retailer internationally recognized as one of the finest—and therefore, priciest—in the world. The Creative Coalition’s invite-only VIP gala drew congressional bigwigs and Hollywood-types alike, including the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ben Affleck, Alyssa Milano and a Baldwin brother. You too can make like the rich and famous and host a posh wine and schmoozing affair in the store’s Restaurant L, which features minimalist slate gray walls, weird-looking flowers and hip-looking people. Select from an hors...
...seem worried. Via the Virgin Galactic website, Branson already has a waiting list of more than 7,000 people who are apparently willing to pay the $190,000 price for a suborbital flight--more than enough to cover Virgin's investment.

...rock world is a small one. Lee used to date Carmen Electra, who later married Navarro, who played in the Chili Peppers with Kiedis, whose memoir Scar Tissue, written with Larry Sloman, is more genuinely satisfying than either Lee's or Navarro's. Kiedis, we learn, grew up in Los Angeles, raised by his hard-partying, actor-slash-drug-dealer dad--and yes, was baby sat by a naked Cher. His appetite for pleasure was precocious and prodigious; he says he slept with his dad's girlfriend when he was 11 and snorted heroin...
