News: Russell Crowe bound for Chicago - 24/07/01

Gladiator star and ladies man Russell Crowe is being touted for the movie version of the West End play Chicago, playing the part of Billy Flynn. Traffic star Catherine Zeta Douglas is in the running for the part of Velma Kelly, with Gwyneth Paltrow rumoured as the other female lead, Roxie Hart. Crowe and Zeta Douglas are no strangers to singing. Crowe fronts the amusingly-monickered rockers 30 Odd Foot of Grunts, while the latter enjoyed a brief fling in a girl band in the early 90s.

Feature: Aldo Zilli party 06/05/01

Yesterday was an eventful day; I spent most of it in the company of celebrity chef Aldo Zilli. Early that morning myself and the restaurant editor for MyVillage, Michelle, headed to Soho to interview the man. Whilst she was interviewing him, I was busy staring at all the framed pictures he had hanging on the walls, which were of himself and the various celebrities he has befriended in his restaurants - the list was impressive.

Feature: Missy Elliot Party 01/06/01

I am feeling the worse for wear after crawling back to my flat in the early hours. Last night I was partying in Zen Gardens where Missy Elliot was hosting the after party for her Brixton Academy gig.

The US bad girl of hip-hop had played a one-off gig after which we all headed down to the West End venue, where blazing hip-hop and R & B was being played. The drinks were flowing, American sexy R & B boys 112 were also in the place, popping the Chrystal champagne in the VIP area, which of course was where I was. I also spotted the Honeyz and MTV’s Jasmine Dotiwala enjoying the party. I was surprised to see the Sugarbabes there, who I’m sure are all under the age of 16, smoking - naughty!

Jordan managed to get her big bust in, and was dancing like crazy. That was not my only stop of the night, as I later headed down to Hanover Grand to see Omar do a PA, which was cool, but by this stage of the night I was finding it difficult to walk in my new stilettos. My girlfriends were also the worse for wear, but hot foot as we are, again we were the last to leave. And again like any other night out, I’m paying for it the next day. Where are the Alka-Seltzers?
