WHY CAN'T TORI GO?
Some people skip their high school reunions because they're fat or unsuccessful or they don't want to run into the people who were mean to them. Svelte TORI SPELLING won't attend the Beverly Hills, 90210 10-year high school-reunion show, airing on Fox May 11, because "she's moved on," (
moved on......to what?
)her publicist says. Some press reports, however, have said the daughter of series creator Aaron Spelling is angry that Fox won't give her a pilot and bitter toward tempestuous former co-star Shannen Doherty, who is appearing on the program. The reunion will include interviews with Jason Priestley, Luke Perry, Doherty and others talking about their auditions and "what the show has meant for establishing their careers as successful actors," according to a Fox press release. That part of the special promises to be fairly short. (*LOL*)
THE BLUEPRINT PART III: THE SNEAKERS
When you're a filthy-rich rapper romancing the fetching lead singer of Destiny's Child, kids want to walk in your shoes. But when JAY-Z's sneaker line, the first from a nonathlete, became the fastest-selling shoe in Reebok history (
gees its just Reebok....when was the last time YOU bought a pair....j/k)last week, desperate kids proved willing to pay more than twice the retail price of $100 for the privilege. The first shoe in the "S. Carter collection by RbK" (Jay-Z's real name is Shawn Carter) sold out in 10 cities. The sneaker is just the latest offering from the unabashedly commercial rapper; his clothing line and vodka are already in stores, and more footwear is due in July. One product idea: Jay-Z's mighty bootstraps.
