Thank you for all your kind good wishes and congrats on my new and exciting company, KAZZY AND SALLY TV (see moving ad at the bottom of this page!) Here's a pic from our recent launch party with my new partner, KAZZY, who is the talent behind the camera in this venture.
SALLY and KAZZY.
I am the on camera talent or, as we say in the business, 'the talent, teeth and t..s'! My teeth, btw, are bleached by the delightful DR WYMAN CHAN at the fab SMILE STUDIO conveniently situated at Wingate House, 93 – 107, Shaftesbury Avenue, W.1., just above the Curzon cinema (0870 75 88 088 / www.smilestudiolondon.co.uk)
DR CHAN is absolutely brilliant and so will your teeth be when you come out of THE SMILE STUDIO. I recently sent a very nervous young first time teeth bleachee, 18 year old JANE to DR WYMAN and she was thrilled with the results. Said JANE, " I lay back and watched a film while my teeth were being bleached. It's really relaxing, not painful or anything and DR CHAN is really nice. It only took about an hour and now my teeth are about 6 shades whiter. I really like them and everyone has noticed."
You can maintain your degree of whiteness by visiting DR CHAN every 6 months or so – you should spot moi there this month – I usually choose an episode of DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES to watch while being bleached!
Celeb fans of SMILE STUDIO include GIRLS ALOUD's NICOLA ROBERTS and DJ extraordinaire NICK FERRARI.
Getting back to KAZZY AND SALLY TV – we had a fab launch party organised by celeb p.r. CHARLOTTE ELLIS and covered by suave EDWARD LLOYD and his delightful assistant DIANA from OK! MAGAZINE, the nation's foremost feel - good publication. The party was held at trendy new Kensington watering hole UTOPIA, kindly sponsored by handsome owner MASOUD and his film star son RYAN REYHANI. Here is MASOUD with KAZZY and the dynamic COMMANDER ALI DIZAEI and his pretty wife, SHY. COMMANDER ALI, a big banana at THE MET, recently published a best selling book NOT ONE OF US and I am hoping to interview him about it for THE PEOPLE'S BOOK PRIZE soon = watch this space...................
KAZZY, ALI, SHY and MASOUD.
The goody bags for the event were kindly sponsored by SOTHYS, organised by famous beauty guru KAMINI, one of our KAZZY AND SALLY TV clients and here she is with her lovely daughter ALPNA, well muscled personal trainer REED DOMINGO (another one of our fave KAZZY AND SALLY TV clients) and my dear bro, CROCKETT.
CROCKETT, KAMINI, ALPNA, REED.
The above pix are by UNEL and here are some more of the party which went on till the early hours by UNEL and lovely LANA HOLLOWAY, who is also featured in front of the camera here. Guests included ANGIE BEST, CHELSEY BAKER, DEBBIE ARNOLD AND TALIA JANSEN, CHRIS QUINTEN, LEEE JOHN, LIZ FULLER, HEATHER BIRD, TRICIA WALSH-SMITH, RICHARD KAY and PATTY AND HARRY PARFITT.
Talking of HARRY PARFITT, the handsome 21 year old son of rock legend RICK of STATUS QUO fame and lovely PATTY is making a name for himself in the club biz at a young age. He is promoting the fab AURA (020 7499 99 99), an amazing club at 48 - 49, St James's Street, S.W.1., just next door to THE RITZ. HARRY recently organised my daughter's 18th birthday party there and did an amazing job. AURA is the new in - place for the young and beautiful and will soon be taking over from MAHIKI and BOUJIS, trust me.
My stunning slinky red dress, btw, is by TAALI, one of the fab labels at the wonderful AMAKA showroom at 75 Great Portland Street, W.1. (020 7486 4013 / www.amaka.co.uk )
AMAKA is run by the dynamic and beautiful OLGA and they do the best ever dresses at w/s prices; their other labels include VERCIA and EVA EVANOVICH. They have great day wear as well as evening and special occasion frox and cater for all ages and sizes. Check 'em out.
My fantastic hair do to match the 'scarlet woman' frock was created by the wonderful NICK MALENKO at ROYSTON BLYTHE at THE DORCHESTER (020 7319 70 90 / www.thedorchester.com/royston-blythe )
who is himself a natural blonde. NICK and ROYSTON are as stunning as their celeb clients, KATIE PRICE, RACHEL HUNTER, TAMARA ECCLESTONE, et al and I thought you might like to see them:

It's no good having perfect ROYSTON AND NICK hair if your face isn't looking its best. Hoorah for Botox! I have mine done by world famous and highly respected 10 YEARS YOUNGER star, DR PATRICK BOWLER at his flagship COURT HOUSE CLINIC just off Harley Street ( 020 7486 85 35 / www.courthouseclinics.com to find your nearest COURT HOUSE CLINIC.)
DR BOWLER is definitely by far the best in the business – the quickest, most accurate and the only one I have found whose injections don't hurt. COURT HOUSE offer all the regular cosmetic beauty treatments, including laser treatments, vein removal and permanent hair removal (fantastic!), but PATRICK says that Botox and fillers are still the most popular. He has recently started using Botox to tighten the jawline and I watched him treat a patient who felt she was getting 'jowly'. The treatment took just a few minutes and was, according to the satisfied customer, "completely painless". This is a thrilling development on the Botox front and will definitely prove extremely popular.
I've been so pleased with my Botox that I'm also going to have a filler with PATRICK later this month – forget the blooming guinea pigs, this one's for moi! Full report in our next issue.

Now for November's BEST PRODUCTS:
COCO ROSE have brought out an ab fab range of 'flats in a bag', SUGAR AND SPICE. Ever since U.S.VOGUE style icon ANNA WINTOUR was spotted in The Hamptons wearing flats, it's been ok for fashionistas to follow suit. And the COCO ROSE 'flats in a bag' are just right for popping on to go home from the disco or when your feet start to resent their 'towering torture chambers', aka stilettoes!
Plus the bag is really cute with a little bow: great idea, great prezzie.

COCO ROSE.
Another brill idea which also makes a fab prezzy is BAGATIDY, a 'handbag organiser' which is going to revolutionise our lives, laydeez! The handbag organiser, complete with contents – you know, all your make-up, keys, mirror, purse, credit cards, etc – can easily and quickly be switched from day bag to evening bag, for instance, thus saving valuable time in preparation for a night out. This is amazing – why didn't anyone think of it before?

We all now know that we absolutely must not drink from plastic water bottles if they've been in the sun, in the car, etc but what's the alternative on the bottle front? The best I have found are the SIGG bottles, chic but sturdy reusable and recyclable bottles which all the designers, models and celebs at LFW were clutching this year. There are all sorts of different SIGG bottle styles and colours; the range is huge and includes some great designs for kids too. They also make great cheap and cheerful - and practical and healthy! - gifts too.
Celebs who favour SIGG bottles include JESSICA ALBA, JENNIFER GARNER and ZAC EFRON.

Now here's the latest on the SKINCARE front:
LAROCCA's COCOA GOLD VITAMIN MASK with Encapsulated Bio-actives stimulates cell regeneration and delivers anti-oxidants into the deepest layer of the skin. My trialler GLORIA said " I used this mask just before a big job interview and I got it! My skin was really glowing and made me feel good all over. A woman's complexion can be her most important asset."
01636 700 122 / www.justbeautydirect.co.uk
GLORIA also trialled EDELWEISS's ANTI-AGING CARE range and said "these products are excellent. I particularly liked the Decollete cream and the Peeling one. They left my skin very fresh and they smell nice too."
020 7788 78 74 / www.natural-organic-experience.com
My fave body lotion for a long time is HEMPZ TREATS' amazing PUMPKIN PECAN CHEESECAKE Delicious Body Lotion. It really does smell exactly like cheesecake and is very protective with lots of glycerin in the formula.
www.hempztreats.com
Apparently lovely CAROL CLEVELAND of M ONTY PYTHON fame is rather partial to the HEMPZ TREATS range and here she is with her fellow MP actors at a recent PYTHON reunion:

Thank you for your enquiries regarding the amazing new NIFTY WRINKLE WAND, the incredible little face lifting gadget which you can keep in your handbag to give yourself a quick non – invasive 'lift' any time, any place. The NIFTY uses the latest electro therapy and muscle stimulating technology to get rid of fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles and under eye puffiness 'in the comfort of your own home'.
It's a brilliant idea and I am sorry if you have had problems locating this latest must - have facial accessory, dear readers. It is not, as my unobservant trialler said last month, available from stores and chemists but from
01872 57 35 43 / www.theniftyfacelift.co.uk
Celeb users of the NIFTY include the lovely SIAN LLOYD and I am reliably informed that the NIFTY really works, and quickly, so stock up fast before I buy the lot for Xmas prezzies for moi and my girl friends!
Thank you for all your emails about the little ones in your lives, dear readers. I am thrilled to be reaching out to a new and younger audience!
We have a couple of part - time toddlers in the office creche and here are BABY DANIEL'S fave prods this month (i.e.: the ones he didn't succeed in breaking!):
PINK AN BLUE's FLOPPEZE pillow, a huge squidgy zip - up pillow, craftily disguised as a long lashed Dalmatian 'aminal', with its own carrying bag. This pillow is just as handy for mums as for the little ones and can safely be used for feeding and winding, etc. Practical and adorable.
0845 257 1420 / www.pinkanblue.com
COZIEWARMERS, the company who make all the wonderful microwave heatable wheat bags, have brought out TOZIES, cute little fleecy baby / toddler booties that are really practical, being easy to pull on and off and machine washable. The TOZIES are stretchy in 3 basic baby / toddler sizes in various colours. BABY DANIEL's TOZIES are brown, which has conveniently covered up a multitude of sins!
01525 718 097 / www.coziewarmers.co.uk
TESCO's SPA small sized hot water bottles with woolly patterned covers are just the job on cold nights. The twisty top is completely safe as naughty BABY DANIEL soon found out when he tried to open it and couldn't!
TESCO stores and www.uk.tesco.com
BOOK NEWS – all of the following make excellent presents:
FASHION FABULOUS LONDON by artistic milliner TRACY ROSE and hubby RUSSELL ROSE (MONJUNE PUBLICATIONS) is a very useful directory of all the best places to buy fashion in London. The handy paperback also includes fashion events, courses and 'fashionable' eateries.
BEING THE SOHAM PSYCHIC by DENNIS MCKENZIE (HEADLINE) is the story of the psychic who accurately predicted the terrible fate of tragic young HOLLY WELLS and JESSICA CHAPMAN, one of the most ghastly stories to grip the nation.
DENNIS comes across as a jolly nice chap who uses his extraordinary gift valuably, helping the Police to find missing people as well as doing normal psychic readings.
There is a great deal to the paranormal: I think everybody should keep an open mind. Do read HG's Psychic Editor VICTORIA BULLIS's fascinating column when you have finished this one. The extraordinary VICTORIA specialises in channelling dead celebs and this month she has been communing with much missed film star PATRICK SWAYZE. Scroll down for more about PATRICK in this column and to read about TV psychic DERK ACORAH and the late great MICHAEL JACKSON.
The next 4 books are all published by SUMMERSDALE who have absolutely captured the market on the funny books / best readable prezzies front:
CELEBRITIES BEHAVING BADLY: LIFESTYLES OF THE RICH AND SHAMELESS by LOOSE WOMEN's CAROLE MCGIFFIN and MARK LEIGH is good fun with just about everyone covered from PRINCESS DIANA to KATIE PRICE to HOWARD HUGHES.
FRED BASSETT 2009 is the compilation of the famous cartoons for this year. This 'dawgy' is a whole lot wittier than most humans and this year's witticisms are definitely up to scratch (excuse the pun!)
FRED BASSETT: FOR GARDEN LOVERS is a cute quickie for all the family, not just the gnomes!
COMPLETELY CONKERS! WHAT DRIVES YOU NUTS ABOUT MODERN BRITAIN by WILL JACKSON is a must - have for 'grumpy olds' everywhere. Actually I think we can all identify with this book - personally I liked the 'killer pears from on high' best!
And now for something completely different ....................the SPECSAVERS`SPECTACLE WEARER OF THE YEAR AWARDS 2009 was held at the VICTORIA AND ALBERT MUSEUM amongst all those stunning Old Masters (and probably some Young Mistresses too! Did you read my review of MARTINE MCCUTCHEON's first novel, THE MISTRESS (PAN) in November 8th's SUNDAY EXPRESS, btw?
A very lively read............the book and the review!)
Anyway the SWOTY Awards was as fun as ever this year and was once again covered by the wonderful EDWARD LLOYD and DIANA from OK! MAGAZINE. The member of the public winner was handsome, shy and retiring young actor DANIEL HARRIS, celeb winner was evergreen telly favourite LIZ SMITH and celeb couple winners were the gorg NANCY SORRELL and her delightful hubby JIM, aka VIC REEVES. The fab event was once again hosted by BEN SHEPHERD and JENNI FALCONER and GOK WAN reprised his role as Auctioneer Extraordinaire on behalf of KIDSCAPE. Guests included ERIN O'CONNOR, CAPRICE, LIZZIE CUNDY, VANESSA FELTZ and BEN OFEADU, JESSICA TAYLOR and LIZ FULLER.
Thank you for your continuing emails about the much missed KING OF POP, MICHAEL JACKSON, seen here with talented Brit designer PARVEEN, for whom my daughter modelled at this year's LFW.
MJ and PARVEEN. C.r.: private collection.
THIS IS IT, the film made of MJ's O2 rehearsals is absolutely sensational – if you haven't yet seen it, you must. If, like me, you were expecting to attend one of the actual concerts, you will understand that you missed the greatest live spectacular of all time. The SMOOTH CRIMINAL and - especially - THRILLER routines are particularly wonderful. It's so sad to be reminded that the world lost such a superstar at only 50 years old but MJ's music will live for ever and will always uplift us.
THIS IS IT is a fitting tribute to the greatest artiste of our era - a consummate singer, dancer and choreographer and reminds us of the creativitity and sheer musicality of the man. Considering he was just marking his moves and 'conserving his voice' in this footage, it's obvious that this is a person who was ready to perform, not to die. So what really happened?
SKY ONE had an interesting MJ evening earlier this month which included lots of home movies including ELLYBETH TAYLOR and an Ellyphant, a fascinating show where the gorgeous JUNE SARPONG tried to conjure up MICHAEL's spirit with a team of ghost busters and a deeply uncomfortable session with TV psychic DEREK ACORAH where he said he was actually communing with said spirit.
When a legend as big as MJ dies, the world doesn't want to let him go. But we don't have to: HG's Psychic Ed VICTORIA BULLIS and I, both keen MICHAEL fans, are working on something extraordinary vis a vis our musical hero at the moment ....... watch this space.
On a happy note it was good to see THE JACKSON CLAN at the THIS IS IT premieres and out and about, looking slightly happier. Here's stunning JANET JACKSON snapped with our very own equally stunning LIZ FULLER, last year's HG Xmas cover girl, at the recent FORMULA ONE GRAND PRIX BALL in Dubai which LIZ hosted.
JANET JACKSON and LIZ FULLER. C.r. : private collection.
On a sad note BOYZONE's gorg and talented STEPHEN GATELEY's untimely death at such a young age was another terrible showbiz tragedy. Heartfelt condolences to all STEPHEN's family and friends, including my celeb crimper pals NICK MALENKO and ROYSTON BLYTHE who were friends of the star.
Finally I was sorry to hear that LINFORD CHRISTIE's gorg niece, RACHEL CHRISTIE had been forced to resign her MISS ENGLAND title after a 'brawl' with another beauty queen over a boyfriend . This does not sound at all like lovely RACHEL and I hope there is an innocent explanation to the incident. Here's a pic of RACHEL wearing a beautiful ADEBAYO JONES (07863 193 869) dress at a recent charity do where we both helped out with the raffle.
RACHEL CHRISTIE. C.r.: ANTONIA MOORE.
Next month I will be reviewing my publisher DELANCEY PRESS's fascinating new fashion book, HOUSE OF LACHASSE: THE STORY OF A VERY ENGLISH GENTLEMAN by the elegant and evergreen PETER LEWIS-CROWN and reporting on the incredible TRIA, the revolutionary new home laser hair removal gadget favoured by LINDSAY LOHAN and DENISE RICHARDS, amongst other things.
