Gloria Estefan was so melllloowww. This little pint-sized pop star was so forth coming and sweet, I wanted to chit chat for hours about family, politics, her! She had a 10:30 a.m. press conference earlier that day and didn't make it to the stage until about 11:15. Reporters were sweating, fanning themselves with her new CD "Unwrapped" and bitching! But she shows up in this flowing, creamy pantsuit, makes us wait a little longer as she signs every piece of crumpled paper or cardboard sign pushed at her by writhing, hot fans, and is completely forgiven by the press when she opens her mouth. You could almost here the sighs of "Isn't she just a doll?!" OK, the press was filled with Miami reporters who follow her around, but still, she made quite an impression on a pack of hot press people. |

OK -- I’m not impressed with this photo of me, but you probably aren’t really looking at me, are you? (You've got to click on the larger image to understand what I mean, but, warning, the photo contains adult content.) Comic/Magician Penn Jillette snaps photos of all his guests by his backdoor, where he painted a police lineup with the 6’ 6” (his height) highlighted in thick, red paint. Nina Hartley proudly posed for Penn when she visited in June. I didn’t take my shirt off, but, then, nobody asked me too, either! We are sitting in his breakfast nook (yes, Penn has a nook). The booth is an exact replica of the plush booths at the kitschy Peppermill diner on the Strip. Another Penn touch are the paintings of serial killers on the wall beind us leading up to the second floor. He's actually an intellectual teddy bear who is an admitted "mama's boy." |

Comedian/magician Amazing Johnathan made me shed my pretty shoes and jump on the back of his 3-week-old Segway for a speedy trip down his tree-lined street. I myself couldn't get the new techno-scooter to go faster than a slow walk. The funnyman is serious about his Segway and uses it to ride down to Starbucks for his coffee fix, or to the bank to cash his paychecks from the Flamingo Hotel. The inventive king of cruel even fixed a little basket to the front of the Segway to carry home groceries from the store. Awwwww. | |
