How could I miss one of those glittering events that would be mentioned in the gossip columns and photos...

Simon Cowell has made a huge contribution. Nah, not to eyebrow-raising ‘perfectionism’, but to charity. He has donated his time. 60 minutes of his lifetime have been auctioned for charity and snapped up for £19,000.
I have no idea what he will do with the bidder in that hour. The buyer happens to...

Every time Michael and I are in Manhattan, we have a celebrity sighting. I’m not sure why this is so exciting to us, but it is. I am not a “fan” of anyone, really, never eagerly waiting for a book, a CD, a movie, or a concert. I’m just not that way, and fandom, fanatics, and celebrity status has...
