The Prince And His Lady Plan Their Bahamavention

November 8, 2007 at 12:10 PM | 0 Comments

A standard fairy tale: A regular, yet beautiful, girl meets a handsome prince. He woos her and whisks her away to a magical place where they live happily ever after. Meet Kate Middleton, the realization of every sexist childhood fantasy. Her sweet, gorgeous, and ripe-for-engagement boyfriend, Prince William, has rented out the entire Desroches Island Resort during Christmas week in December.

The hotel is the only one on Desroches Island in the Bahamas, and it suits the fantasy "paradise" setting any little girl would imagine. Lovers can walk up and down the 10-mile private beach before retiring to their king-size bed and stocked suite. All but one of its 20 rooms will be uninhabited so William and his potential future bride can hide beneath the whir of paparazzi helicopters.

This Just In: Child Stars Make Lousy Hotel Guests

October 29, 2007 at 9:37 AM | 0 Comments

The name Amanda Bynes conjures our childhood days when a fun Saturday night consisted of watching a cute (though slightly annoying) little girl jump around All That and The Amanda Show between shots of the Big Orange Couch on Nickelodeon's Snick lineup.

Fast-forward a decade or so, and all the Hairspray must have gone to her head. Page Six reports Bynes pulled a diva act while staying at the The Sands at Grace Bay Resort during the Turks and Caicos Film Festival last week. Festival organizers claim Bynes demanded four first-class plane tickets, two double hotel suites and failed to show up to events to which she'd committed.

But the star's reps insist Bynes behaved.

"It's absolutely not true," said her rep, Leslie Sloane Zelnick. "She is the nicest girl, she makes no demands, she was offered those tickets and her rooms by the festival. She even paid for all her own meals."

No one ever praises our kindness when we pay for the food we eat. Though I guess they would if we'd been rehearsing sketches in Universal Studios in 1992 instead of playing pretend hotelier with our Barbie Dream House.
