So many L.A. celebrities are buying Las Vegas homes. It is as if L.A.
thinks of us as a suburb of the City of Angels.
Leonardo DeCaprio has now bought a new condo in the Panorama Towers
behind Caesars Palace. Now many people buy a second home here so they do
not have to pay California state taxes, and they declare Las Vegas to be
their main residence.
Do any of you remember when Drew Carey worked at Denny's here and did
his stand-up comic act wherever he could? Now all of his talent and hard
work has come to full fruition with him being the new host of the big
new CBS game show. James Caan will say farewell to the TV series "Las
Vegas" on the season opener. Then the very handsome Tom Selleck will
take over.
One time I was interviewing Tom Selleck at a very big and crowded event
in L.A. I became separated from my crew and was in a panic when he
offered to take me home. He was a fabulous human to rescue me as a
"damsel in distress". This is photo of Selleck and me at the event.

Victoria and John Alexander lead an awesome life with John being invited
all over the world to speak and to advise on world issues. John just
appeared on the Jon Rolston show. Victoria has become visibly more
clairvoyant and charismatic with her many trips to Peru where she works
with jungle visionary medicine at the "Ayahusca" retreat at "Refugio
Altiplano. This retreat opens the door to the spirit world. Victoria is
well known as a film critic.
My good friend and L.A. Public Relations icon Edward Lozzi keeps me
posted on the continuing shenanigans that Zsa Zsa Gabor’s husband keeps
trying to pull. He is now referred to as "Count? Prince?" Frederic Von
Anhalt. He tried to claim he was the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s baby.
Then he sued a pharmaceutical company that he said made him impotent.
And he is trying to obtain the rights to 90 year old Zsa Zsa Gabor’s
home that has been willed to her daughter Francesa Hilton as her father
Conrad Hilton was the founder of the Hilton Hotel chain. Francesa Hilton
is now a well know P.R. person herself.
My friend Ed Lozzi saw a copy of the pre-nups that Von Anhalt had signed
and the house clearly belongs to Conrad Hilton’s daughter. Francesa is
also Paris and Nicki Hilton’s aunt.
My own grandson Brian Celi is now paying with two groups: Booze Hounds
and Angel City Outcast. L.V. public relations icon, Bruce Merrin’s son,
Adam is doing the same with his group "The 88" heading with the Smashed
Pumpkins at the Pearl in Las Vegas at the Palms Hotel.
