This week, some of the Splendora team has been out of the
office enjoying the mild Spring climes in New York City. Even though there
was a lot of hanging in Soho, alas, there were no Olsen sightings.
However, other celebs were spotted so stay tuned for details next
week.

THE
TRUTH CUTS LIKE A KNIFE
Can
someone please refresh our memories and tell us how Bryan Adams went from
the dude who sang the sappy theme song from the Robin Hood movie
(Everything I Do, I Do It For You), to a man-about-town modelizer?
Apparently all he did was become a shutterbug. A few days ago he corralled
some some of the Big Apple's most bold face names to come to the book
release party for his photo tome, American Women. What these social
butterflies may not know is that this classy artiste is embarking on a
Summer of '05 tour with fellow 80's relic Def Leppard. Our prediction is
that both artists will take the stage to do the very apropos Leppard
classic, "Photograph."

TAKING THE BENTLEY TO THE
BODYSHOP
If
you're just a regular, ab-crunching Angeleno perhaps you roll to the gym
in your big Beemer, your Range, or if you're Cameron Diaz or Larry David,
you scurry along the 405 in your Toyota Prius. But if you're J.Lo, going
to work out with Gunnar Peterson at The Compound in L.A., you show up to
do your mountain climbers and squats in a bling-tastic Bentley.

REMINDER: DINING OUT FOR LIFE
Here's
a great excuse to eat yourself silly. On April 28, a slew of SF eateries
will participate in Dining Out for Life, a citywide event that benefits
the STOP AIDS Project. By dining out you can make a difference-
participating restaurants donate 25% of their food or food and alcohol
bills for the entire day to support the critical work of the STOP AIDS
Project. Bon Appetit!
