Malibu Fires And Jennifer Aniston’s Arctic Pain
The Bangladesh floods and the Darfur massacres would lead the news converge if only Kerry Katona could be persuaded to dispense own-brand ketchup to the dispossessed and Lenny Henry retrace his roots to the Sudan. Accordingly, there is leading news from Malibu where fires are occurring. In “Red Hot Flea hit by blaze", the Sun tells us that Flea, member of the Red hot Chilli Peppers band, has had his home “burnt to a crisp". “Stars flee Malibu fires," announces the Express. Minnie Driver, Sting, Pierce Brosnan, Britney Spears, Courtney Cox and Bill Murray have abandoned their properties. Cynics may argue that having a property in Malibu guarantees column inches, it being the resort for fires. Indeed, if Jennifer Aniston can only be persuaded to buy a holiday home on the edge of the Arctic ice shelf, she will surely become the most–talked about celebrity on the planet… Posted: 26th, November 2007 | In: Celebrities, Tabloids.
