Slot machines and baccarat are so over: Eva Longoria is reportedly partnering with Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham for a night spot in Vegas that introduces the soon-to-be latest craze in betting games: Dominoes!
Longoria opened her own Hollywood restaurant "Beso" last year, where it not only failed to die but has thrived. But it was in looking for venues to launch Beso II in Vegas, she was introduced to the Beckhams, themselves looking for a toehold in the scene.
Apparently, the dominoes were Posh's idea, so celebrities can cry and run away from the tables when they lose just like at age 5. Will they also offer Connect Four?
David Beckham's first trip to San Francisco didn't involve a ride on a cable car or a leisurely swim from Alcatraz Island. Rather, he was present to unveil a giant billboard of... himself, hanging on the downtown Macy's.
Becks is flabbergasted that people would go out of their way to visit an ad and take goofy pictures like the one above. Perhaps we should take him to a little place we like to call, "Times Square?"
It is true, however, that catching the Beckham billboard is easier than camping out with the paparazzi outside his Los Angeles home and cheaper than an LA Galaxy ticket. Let's chalk this one up to the hot weather.
Football season in Europe is winding down this spring, but the much neglected Major League Soccer is just getting geared up in the States, and that means the David Beckham goodwill tour begins anew!
Wife Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham was on hand to watch Davey and the LA Galaxy lose a tough game against Toronto FC on Sunday. Kate Beckinsdale and her director husband were also in the stands, although how anyone spotted them is beyond our purview.
See the traveling show when the LA Galaxy comes to your town; they will face the Houston Dynamo and Chivas USA at home before getting on the road again to Salt Lake City at the start of May.
Well, that went well. Victoria Beckham has announced she is leaving the Spice Girls on the heels of the group's very successful world tour. Posh told a British tabloid she was the impetus to split up the Spice Girls the first time, and now she's anxious to get back to her other career as a fashion designer.
Those in the know (our sister, the Spice Girls super-fan) say Posh never had the strongest voice, so why would she want to stay in the band? She probably just doesn't want to leave David Beckham to be tempting eye candy for the ladies of LA. He's like a British Brad Pitt. But what Posh creations would you wear, if any?
Who wants to go shopping? Victoria Beckham, Claudia Schiffer and Dita Von Teese peep the looks presented by designer Roland Mouret at Paris' Fall 2008 Fashion Week. Mouret has dressed Scarlett Johansson, Rachel Weisz and Angelina Jolie for runway shows in the past.
American fashionistas, don't fret--New York's Mercedes Benz Fashion Week starts February 1st! The tents will take over Bryant Park like they always do, so be ready to stake out some real estate on Avenue of the Americas if you're looking for your own celeb sighting.
We've known it was coming since June, and the moment has arrived: The Spice Girls are back on tour! And the reviews are... well, actually, we don't care about the reviews. We'd rather just bask in the glory of Posh, Baby, Scary, Sporty and Ginger out on the road again.
At one of their recent L.A. shows, though, two audience members almost attracted more attention than the show on stage: David Beckham, who was there watching his wife, and Tom Cruise, who's Beckham's new best LA friend. According to a concertgoer, when Beckham got up to use the bathroom, he and his entourage commandeered the entire bathroom. Or should we say, he pulled a Gyllenspoon? How rude!
If you go to the concert in any city, do send us your review.
For the celebs who attended Fashion Week, which just wrapped up in New York's Bryant Park, seeing the collections is like flipping through a catalog--though it doesn't hurt that they get to see and be seen from the front row. Victoria Beckham said "I'll take it" to the entire collection of Oscar de la Renta's after also stopping in at the Marc Jacobs show, but she wasn't the only star at the tents.
Anna Wintour, the famous Vogue editor who inspired The Devil Wears Prada, stopped in at multiple shows some days--when she wasn't hanging out with Roger Federer, that is. Naomi Watts came out to support the designer Marchesa. Star Jones lined up for Tracy Reese. To see what your favorite celebrities wore--and secretly judge them--plenty of snaps are online in NYMag.com's galleries.
David Beckham's American vacation came to an end last night at DC's RFK Stadium. The golden boy finally started last night against DC United and started earning a chunk of his $250 million contract, scoring a goal in the first half and assisting on another. Ever the statesman of soccer, Beckham told reporters after the game, "We worked hard as a team and played hard as a team and we won as a team."
Wife Victoria is holding down the home fort, updating her blog and lining up a fat-suit cameo on the comedy series "Ugly Betty."
