pAArtying is Bad for Business

aasadiefrost__opt.jpg

All the swinging she does with the Primrose Hill set took its toll on Jude Law's ex-wifey, Sadie Frost.

According to the Daily Mail, Frost's clothing line, FrostFrench, was forced to fold last week with one creditor owed more than $6.6 million.

Total debts are understood to be just over $8 million.

However, with friends like Kate Moss, Frost's 'celebrity' status attracted a rich investor (a Norwegian film producer) to save its assets at the last minute.

Renamed FrostFrench London Retail, the new company will manage the label, and the company's store in the trendy Islington section of London will remain open.

Lucky break for the former Mrs. Jude Law.

Riddle Me Depp?

Filed under: Film Flickers > Johnny Depp

As we mentioned earlier this month, reports state that the next Batman movie will feature the Riddler as the main villain.

Jim Carrey did a good job playing the last Riddler in 1995. So, who would likely take his place?

Well, some reports claim that Johnny Depp is being offered the role.

And with the success The Dark Knight has has had at the box office, making over $440 million worldwide, the producers don't think they'll have a problem convincing Depp to take the role.

A source says the producers "are convinced that the role of the Riddler is perfect for Depp. Johnny's a pro. He'll be able to take direction from director Chris Nolan and still make the character his own."

They also plan on revisiting another one of Batman's enemies, the Penguin. And according to insiders, they are hoping the role goes to Oscar winner Philip Seymour Hoffman.

Depp and Hoffman?

Two excellent choices, we think.

What do U think???

One more down, a gazillion left to go!

Girls Gone Wild mastermind Joe Francis has reached a settlement this week with a Panama City, Florida, woman who said she was 16 when filmed flashing her breasts in 2002.

Her picture was on the cover of a popular GGW video.

Francis' attorney said the woman will not be paid but will be freed of a countersuit alleging she abused the legal process.

Joe caught another lucky break!

Little Sister's Turn

Filed under: Fashion Smashion > Beyonce

Solange Knowles must have hired a nanny or three to take care of that baby of hers so she can get back to work.

To start off, Solange has just been named as an ambassador for Armani Jeans.

Giorgio Armani supposedly said, "Armani Jeans expresses my vision of a young, independent, casual lifestyle with a strong and cool, fashion sensibility. Solange epitomises this style perfectly and brings to it that swing so evident in her new single, I Decided."

That has marketing/PR/corporate mouthpiece written all over it!

In late August, Solange's second album, SoL-AngeL and the Hadley Street Dreams (from which I Decided is taken), hits the streets.

The younger Knowles will then be embarking on a worldwide tour this autumn.

Work it!

Heating Up

Things between Sluttyienna Millers's ex and Jude Law's ex are getting serious!

As we reported Wednesday, actor Rhys Ifans and rock offspring Kimberly Stewart are now dating.

But, it seems like the pair aren't quite ready to proclaim their love publicly.

Ifans and Stewart were extremely camera shy as the paparazzi caught them exiting through the back door of London's Bungalow 8 night club on Thursday morning.

The pair left the club together at around 2.10 A.M. and headed to Kimberly's apartment, where Rhys threw a cigarette and tried to kick photographers.

Drunk sluts in love will do such crazy things!

She Doesn't Know When To Shut It

Filed under: Joan Rivers

wenn1980997.jpg

Joan Rivers was recently a featured speaker at the Women of Distinction Awards Gala in Orlando, Florida.

The event is a yearly fundraiser by the Girl Scouts.

Rivers was there as part of the tribute, but she behaved less than womanly and more like a trash-talking sailor.

At a Girl Scouts fundraiser!

According to reports, Rivers used the "F" word several times and even repeatedly called women "whores."

She then continued by listing the things that the Girl Scouts didn't teach.

For example, Rivers joked that Paris Hilton didn't earn the "wearing panties patch."

Kinda funny. Kinda not. But, definitely inappropriate for an awards show honoring outstanding women and benefiting the Girl Scouts.

Dontcha think????

You need to know your audience.

A Wee Little One

She's so tiny!

Midget Olsen, Mary-Kate, and her giant friend spent a nice, casual day out and about in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

The twin, wearing a Kenny Rogers tee, stopped by a thrift store and took pictures inside.

She's looking happy and healthy.

Her outfit, on the other hand, crazy as ever!
