Splendora Newsletter, June 04 2004

Do you or anyone you know have accounting experience and want to work with a bunch of zany fashion and shopping editors? Splendora is looking for a P/T contract accountant who doesn't mind wine and cheese for lunch and enjoys rappin' about The OC. We're a tight bunch of self-motivated workaholics so you would need to be able to work in close quarters with others and not need to be micromanaged. If you or a qualified pal want to apply, send your resume to info@splendora.com.

KABALLAH CURSE
We have a spy at LA's Dolce who just sent us an Interpol alert about a Kabbalah-centric dinner party that was recently thrown at the paparazzi prone digs. After some gefilte fish, this blessed bunch got up on their soapboxes for post-supper speeches. Self-aggrandizing windbags Demi Moore, husband Ashton (word is that they ARE married, Kabbalah-style), Guy Ritchie and Meshuggenah Madge got their cult on and waxed poetic about their altered states of being. The proselytization continues on Madonna's Reinvention tour where she has banned the use of curse words. If any crew member is heard muttering unmentionables they have to pay a $5 fine. Holy hell on earth!

But thankfully the mortitician with the mostest will be available for intakes beginning June 13th when the series returns to HBO. PS: the secret scoop is that Mena Suvari will be joining the cast this season!
