"marika" wrote in message news:... I did not know that William Shatner had a horse farm and that he is that involved in showing them NATIONAL ENQUIRER...MIKE WALKER... --HE'D BE DALAIGHTED DEPT.: Buddhist dad-to-be Richard Gere's telling pals he's thrilled that the Dalai Lama has promised to be godfather to his child by "Law & Order" galpal Carey Lowell. MITCHELL FINK... --The star, whose vocal cords were damaged in 1997 by a bacterial infection, isn't ready to sing, but has mended enough to play a proper English mother in "Relative Values," a $10 million comedy that just started shooting on the Isle of Man off the coast of Northern Ireland. "She can talk," said Gene Schwam, who represents Andrews and her husband, director Blake Edwards. "She just can't sing." Edwards is in Los Angeles trying to nail down financing for his new comedy, "It Never Rains," starring Chevy Chase. The two won't see each other until the end of September when Andrews returns to L.A. Schwam said Andrews and Edwards recently put their Manhattan townhouse up for sale. "They still have a condo in L.A., and a house in Sag Harbor," he said. "And they still may buy something else in New York." --Katie Couric, Tony Bennett and Drew Barrymore are about to make their collective debut as fashion designers. And the models they'll be using are dogs. I don't mean that they're not pretty. I'm talking real dogs. A charity event to benefit the Humane Society of New York will be Sept. 7 at Jivmakuti Yoga Center on Lafayette St., which has been home to such celebrated followers of the Hindu philosophy as Madonna, Donna Karan, Russell Simmons and Sting. During the event, dogs from the Humane Society will parade up and down the runway in collars and leashes designed by Couric, Bennett and Barrymore. Model Christy Turlington will be emcee. I hope she has the good sense not to tell the dogs they'll be on a catwalk. USA TODAY... --LOUISVILLE -- Actor William Shatner spent most of last week here competing in the World Championship Horse Show at the Kentucky State Fair. His Belle Reve Horse Farm scooped up lots of prizes, and so did he. Among his trophies: first place in the Amateur Fine Harness Gentleman's Stake and third in the Amateur Five-Gaited Gentleman's Stake. Between outings, Shatner - who is mourning the Aug. 9 drowning of wife Nerine - was consoled with hugs from friends. The crowd greeted his wins with cheers. --Horror writer Stephen King says he is grateful to be alive but angry that the driver who hit him still has a driver's license. "It's God's grace that he isn't responsible for my death," King said in Saturday's Bangor Daily News, his first interview since being struck by a van while walking near his home June 15. After six surgeries, King says he probably will never walk at 100% again. A grand jury will decide Sept. 30 what charges, if any, should be brought against driver Bryan Smith. --ATLANTA - Ex-rapper Mase swore off hip hop to seek a higher calling. Now, he's seeking a higher education. The 20-year-old, whose real name is Mason Betha, enrolled at Clark Atlanta University this semester, majoring in business. Mase's religious convictions led him to leave rap behind and switch to gospel music. The New York native visited the historically black school two months ago before enrolling in classes, which began Aug. 19. He may be downplaying his superstar status on campus, but he does get special parking privileges and is living off campus, unlike most freshmen. --SINGAPORE - Ricky Martin ushered in a new era of concert-going freedom in conservative Singapore last year. On Sunday, the red-hot Puerto Rican sensation was back urging fans to start Livin' La Vida Loca. Some 800 die-hard fans waited in the rain during a 1-hour delay caused by lighting equipment problems. Martin's appearance in Singapore last year marked the first time concert-goers in the conservative city-state were allowed to dance during the show under new, relaxed laws. --ROCK HILL, S.C. - When Mel Gibson leaves South Carolina after filming The Patriot, he'll be remembered for helping expand a local domestic violence shelter. Gibson made a sizable contribution to the Safe Passage Inc. shelter last week, said Peggy Payne, shelter executive director. Payne wouldn't say exactly how much Gibson gave, but noted that ''it'll go a long way toward our new facility we're building.'' Safe Passage plans to start building a bigger shelter later this year. It will have six bedrooms and bathrooms and offices, as well as play, dining and laundry areas for as many as 25 people. |
