STARS

1.   It seems everybody wants to be a jazz singer nowadays. People of all ages turn up at 'open mic' sessions to perform their party piece. But why this sudden eruption of would-be vocalists? Maybe because singing looks easier than playing an instrument, although it isn't. Or maybe it's because there are so many good jazz singers in Britain to inspire them. There's Stacey Kent, Tina May, Claire Martin, Clare Teal, Barb Jungr, Anita Wardell, Sheena Davis... LA FEMME MAGAZINE

STYLE

1. "Today we know the price of everything and the value of nothing." Oscar Wilde said that and he hadn't even seen In Style magazine. In Style is the drop-dead worst magazine in print. It presents attractive objects in dizzying abundance -- fine, that's its job -- but the way it associates beautiful design with cheap unearned celebrity is wrong and dangerous. Even I feel fretful after I read it, and I've never run up a credit-card debt in my life. How many women go bankrupt after reading In Style? LA FEMME MAGAZINE

tWHAT TO WEAR WHEN YOU ARE PREGNANT: Even before you get a proper 'bump' you may find your waist thickens, making it hard to fit into your tightest clothes. You may be able to adapt your clothes for a while - leaving the top button undone on trousers might be enough, and you can hide the gap with a longer top. Lots of today's maternity clothes can be worn after pregnancy, too, and some styles of normal clothes are well suited to covering growing bumps...LA FEMME MAGAZINE

18.FABULOUS TIMES, PLACES AND PEOPLE. BY MAXIMILLIEN DE LAFAYETTE. GAY PARIS IN THE 20s and 30s: Background, People, Places, Personalities, Hospitality, Restaurants, Food, Wine, Pleasure, Style, Fashion, Arts, Poetry, Music and Adventure. According to Maximillien de Lafayette. Mon Dieu! To be and live in Paris during "Les annees folles", between the end of  1917 and 1934, especially if you were an eccentric artist, an intellectual adventurer, a frou-frou femme fatale, a genius or an independently wealthy American, willing to spend a lot of money on arts, dating and women. Ask Madonna, Paulette Attie, Penelope de Vassy and Louise de Chambertin. Really "real" America's la crème de la crème was there. The "real" American high society, the privileged class, the snobs (Although it was too early for the Americans to know how to be a snob), les bourgeois,  wealth filthy characters, the hustlers with a style, the scandalous adventurous women, the schmoozer and the cruisers, the handsome gigolos, the champagne, the caviar, the kisses and the misses, sex, the drama and all the "chic" pleasures of the era. Hemingway was here. Paramour Stein too. Why Paris - what made everybody want to come here and create, and drink, and dance, and paint, and write stories or invent them? Women? obnoxious, over-cultured and over-sophisticated Frenchmen? Bubbly champagne? Sinfully good wine? Nice plat de fromage? A nostalgia? A fantasy? A new social, political and artistic era? A modern Parisian revolution? Yes! Yes! All of the above! WORLD HOSPITALITY MAGAZINE

SOCIETY AND LIFESTYLE: BY MAXIMILLIEN DE LAFAYETTE. Hottest and Most Talented Women of the Year. We will always talk about the famous and the rich. Wealth and money are status symbol.

You might get lucky and be remembered here and there, but you are no more a headliner. You become like Australia. Everybody talks about Australia but nobody wants to visit Australia.
