Yard sale draws a crowd of 300 spectators

A quick update on Tori’s yard sale …

I told you the other day that Spelling was going to be having a yard sale on Friday morning at her Studio city home. The sale was a hit – approximately 300 people showed up to look for bargains and some even flew in from Boston for the sale. They must have been die hard fans.

News helicopters hovered over the event as if it were an Awards show or Movie premiere. Items sold during the sale included wine glasses, a dominatrix whip, sofas, roller skates and a rubber duck and memorabilia from Spellings’ time with T-V show 9-0-2-1-0.

Naturally the event ended up being videotaped for the VH1 reality show which is loosely based on Spellings’ life.

Aniston and Vaughn split?

by Tricia

It’s official. In statements to People Magazine reps, Stephen Huvane and John Pisani, for Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn said that they have decided to part ways. They said “After Jennifer’s trip to London several weeks ago, Jennifer and Vince mutually agreed to end their relationship but continue to be good friends today.” The pair had been dating since filming the movie The Break Up in Chicago during the summer of 2005.

There’s been speculation for some time that the two were cooling off. Vaughn has been in London since September filming Fred Claus, and Aniston has been working in L.A. and New York.

You might remember that in October Vince Vaughn threatened to sue several tabloids that had alleged he was seen kissing a mystery blonde and had ended his relationship with Aniston. The pair both made efforts to dispel these rumors – particularly Aniston who went on Oprah on October 11th to say that the two were still together.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I liked the two of them as a couple – hopefully they’ll end up getting back together. If they don’t, I wonder how long it will be before a mysterious blonde begins to appear on Vinces arm?

What do you think of this news? Did you think their relationship was going to last?

Mariah Carey donates Fur to Charity and causes uproar

by Tricia

Mariah Carey donated a $7,500 fur coat to help Mongolia’s poor, but the coat has disappeared and animal rights activists are upset.

The coat was donated by Carey to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) which told Reuters it had since been lost on its way to Mongolia, where it was to be given to nomads to help them keep warm in the winter. Each year, PETA distributes hundreds of cast-off furs to help clothe the homeless and refugees.

In Mongolia, PETA hires impoverished women to cut donated fur coats into narrow strips. The strips are then handed over to nomad families who use them to make the inner linings of their traditional winter coats.

Carey, 36, whose commercial success has not translated into awards show acclaim, was snubbed at the American Music Awards on Tuesday, despite scoring three nominations.

Naked photos of Marcia Cross could be published

by Tricia

Marcia Cross, one of the stars of the hit show Desperate housewives, has been battling to keep naked photos of herself from being published.

Two hundred snaps were reportedly discovered by a catering company hired to remove garbage from Cross’ home in Los Angeles. It’s the firm’s owner, David Hans Schmidt, who plans to sell the pictures.

Schmidt tells the New York Daily News, “There are some pictures of her showering outside. She looks absolutely gorgeous. And yes, the carpet does match the curtains.”

However, 44-year-old Cross’ legal team claim the photos were thrown away by mistake and insist they still belong to her and husband Tom Mahoney. She is demanding their return.

Schmidt,confident he has the law behind him, and hints “The pictures were not stolen. When you throw something away, you forfeit that property. We recognize the copyright issue, but US copyright law stops at the border.” Does this mean that he will try to sell the sexy photographs overseas?

Schmidt, after finding Cross’ tax return in her trash knows how wealthy she is so he’s offered to let her buy the photos back. Schmidt adds, “I’m not looking to mortify Ms. Cross. I just want the most money for my client. I know how much she made, but out of respect for Ms. Cross, I won’t discuss it.”

Since when do people have to buy their own property back when it’s been stolen? Fight this Marcia!

Paparazzi force Nicole Ritchie to Move

by Tricia

Nicole Richie moved out of her Beverly Hills, California, home to escape the paparazzi.

The star has been terrified by photographers who leap out of bushes and start taking pictures whenever she leaves the house.

She says, “I’ve had to move because of the paparazzi that sit outside and follow me wherever I go. Luckily I’m not one of those people who needs to have their make-up done when I walk out of my house. I just try to hang out with my friends and do what I would normally do.

“The other night I was leaving a friend’s house and they popped out of the bushes. I thought I was getting mugged. Imagine a man jumping out at you holding a black object.”
