    MISCHA & HER MATEY

    Image Like fellow pirate fan Linds Lo, Mischa B. loves her some ahoy attention. It's almost uncanny how Barton's current squeeze - crazy cannonball Cisco Adler - looks like a chip off the original ahoy: John Galliano. Let's see how they match up: Scraggly hair?

    *Speaking of moustaches, when Splendora's boss lady Gina Pell was in Paris for the spring shows a few years back she ran into Galliano at L'Avenue (he was lunching with Andre Leon Talley). She remarked that although John's lip whiskers looked dramatically drawn with an eyebrow pencil, he was still a dashing swashbuckler.
