Celebrity Scientologists
08/02/2004 03:02 AMThis is a frequently updated, exhaustively documented list of
celebrity Scientologists:
Name: Sonny Bono
Profession: singer, actor, republican rep., pizza delivery man in
congress
member of the House Subcommittee on Copyrights and
Intellectual Property
Status: introduced by Mimi Rogers; took some courses, says
he's a roman catholic, not a scientologist (LA Times),
but probably still in (used the word "enturbulate" in public
around 26.4.1997)
He says in Esquire:
"I openly studied scientology to the degree that they
did some courses on ethics, and then said thank you and
left. (...) The scientology - there was no cult thing there."
From drogers@huey.csun.edu (David D. Rogers):
According to Corydon's book, he was quoted as saying:
"My only sorrow is that L. Ron Hubbard left before I
could thank him for my new life," in a full-page ad
featured in several newspapers after Elron's death.
died 6.1.1998
His widow, Mary Bono, has also done scientology courses
Achievement: Congressman (R), Palm Springs Mayor, Cher's ex-husband.
Cher: "A politician is usually a null, so the job fits him".
"The Progressive": (first mentioned to me in october 1995)
"#8 on the list of 'The Ten Dimmest Bulbs in Congress'
"Bono's mental shortcomings have long made him a
subject of scorn among California politicians."

04/06/2005 06:24 PMRafat Ali calls it "the
craziest story he's ever heard" - I agree.
But I also call it the smartest business model -
ever. It's all about the content and that's why Rafat's blog is taking off - as he's
talking about talking about the content.
Next best thing to Rafat's model - is Arianna Huffington's
model. Just get enough names (or apparent names - condoned by the
name) to spout off - on anything.
I'd advertise. It's gonna go viral. For
sure.
I can hear Jason Calacanis right now - scurrying around calling up
Schwarzenegger and Brad Pitt.
And the fact that they got Jason Kottke as their guru! No wonder
Jason retired from whatever else he was doing.
He's being annointed the Blogger nerd God. I can
just imagine Larry David, Gwynth Paltrow or Barry Diller - calling up
Jason at 4 AM - from the site of some movie being shot in
Tangiers....
"Hello Jason, it's me - Gwynth."
"What's a trackback - again? I still don't get
it?"
The Return Of Celebrity VCs
The Return Of Celebrity VCs
06/15/2004 06:24 PMDuring the boom years, when venture capitalists were the new rockstars
of the dot com era, we began to see the rise of "celebrity VCs." It
was especially popular for former sports stars to jump into the
venture investing business - even if they had no real business
background or knowledge. Most of these VC firms didn't get very far,
especially once the bubble popped. Now, however, as business seems to
be picking up again, it looks like the celebrity VC may be back. The
latest to throw his hat into the venture investing ring is
U2 frontman Bono, who is
joining the newly created Elevation Partners to invest in media
and entertainment businesses. The other partners in the firm (Roger
McNamee, John Riccitiello, Fred Anderson and others) all have a bit
more experience, so you have to wonder if the Bono move is just to get
them some more attention as they launch - or if Bono will really be
taking meetings up on Sandhill Road with startups begging for money.
It's a little unclear from the wording of the article exactly what
Bono's role will be. Either way, it appears that Elevation isn't
starting small. The rumor mill suggests they're looking for their
initial fund to be a billion dollar fund.

locals are encouraged to dispose of their wads by sticking them up,
rather than dropping them underfoot.
Londoners are being urged to stick their chewing gum on celebrity
posters rather than dropping it on the streets.
Ealing Council hopes posters featuring Shane Richie, Jordan and Peter
Andre among others will prove a more tempting target in Acton, west
London.
Posters have removable sheets which will be changed six days a week to
stop the gum building up...
It is estimated that UK local authorities spend £150m a year
tackling the problem.

Getting Treos Into Celebrity Hands
Getting Treos Into Celebrity Hands
02/16/2004 02:51 PMRIM started this with their Blackberry marketing program that tried to
get the devices into the hands of specific people who would influence
others, and Danger followed up doing the same thing with their Hiptop.
Now, it appears that PalmOne/Handspring are going all out in
making sure the rich, famous and (most importantly) well
connected are carrying Treo 600s wherever they go. Maybe this
explains why almost everyone is completely sold out of the devices -
they're all going to people who are better connected than you or I.
The article paints an interesting picture of the process of getting
free stuff if you're rich and famous. Basically, you see one of your
rich and famous friends with some cool gadget, and then you call up
the company requesting your own. Even though you've got more money
than you could ever know what to do with, the company then sends you a
free one (or more, if you want...) so that you'll be sure to show it
to your friends, and all those piddly little normal people will drool
over it and have to go out and spend their hard-earned money on one
themselves.

Sunday night celebrity countdown...
Sunday night celebrity countdown...
03/13/2003 10:16 AMBeing a brief list of the celebrities that I've come into fleeting
contact with over the last month or so. The gentle reader is expected
to bear in mind that said celebrities are unlikely to be of the
stature of your major Hollywood Oscar winner, since most were spotted
milling around Covent Garden, Soho or Piccadilly Circus...
- The guy with the hair from the Salon TV show.
For the Americans among us, The Salon is a reality TV show set in a hair and
beauty establishment (allegedly just off London's shimmeringly
glamourless Shaftesbury Avenue). The gentleman I spotted from the show
was strolling down towards Piccadilly Circus one late-winter's
evening, with a few passers-by taking pictures of him. He looked
slightly dumb-founded and as if he was rather enjoying it.
- Matt Lucas, TV's entertaining man-in-a-baby-suit.
Matt Lucas (alias "What are the final scores?" George Dawes)
went to the same university as me. In fact he not only went to the
same university as me, but he went at the same time and was friends
with a couple of friends of mine. But I barely new him, and so didn't
feel an urge to reintroduce myself to him when we both found ourselves
stuffing our faces on nearby tables in the Leicester Square Kentucky
Fried Chicken. Some poor, rather dumb-looking chap tried to get an
autograph, but clearly it wasn't an appropriate time.
- The quite-cute-one-off-The-Office.
Celebrities are clearly intrinsically grumpy people. I go to this hair
place in Soho, and have done since I worked at Time Out. I always knew
that it used to be cool, but I'd never seen an actual living
celebrity in there before. Today was different, however. Because
Martin Freeman (who plays the nice one from the Office) stomped in eager for hair-rescue.
The only unfortunate thing about this encounter is probably that he's
not really known (primarily at least) for the quality of his haircuts.
In fact maybe a bit anti-known. So in a sense him coming into my hair
place probably isn't the best sign of my continued style.
- Stephen Gately.
The anaemic butterfly in bizarrely successful prefab pop-group Boyzone
somehow managed to defy nature by becoming a weird fat caterpillar-like
non-solo-star. But that was then - as the other day my work
colleagues and I spotted the bad-skinned and newly-skinny, tiny
pop-singing, proto-West-End-starring
Joseph-in-his-designer-stressed-denim while on our way to a nice
little restaurant in Covent Garden. He kind of had that look on his
face that Chandler got in Friends when he came into the room with his
new Tom Selleck-alike moustache. Only scarier and much less
good-natured. We avoided him. And maybe pointed a little.
So there you go. My last month's celebrity encounters. Anyone
spotted anyone more interesting?

Panjabi MC in the UK. Jay-Z and Missy Elliott sampled
S.Asian music, and now Britney Spears has a
bhangra-flavored remix (even if her love of "Indian
spiritual religions" doesn't mean she's
heard of Hinduism). And there's more -- a
Baywatch actress is the first foreigner to
star in
a Bollywood flick. From Pop Idol to American Idol, now there's
Bollywood Star. "Bend it Like Beckham" director
Gurinder Chadha is doing a
Bollywood version of "Pride and Prejudice." Is this
just the exotic flavor of the month, or a cultural shift in line with
the economic changes ahead?
(and, just for fun -- a dig at the
whole S.Asian music
collaboration thing, from a site that appears to be The Onion for
British Asians) Can you hear Britney now?
