New Concept?

 Talk going around that the next direction for her business might be into make up.  This may be part of the discussion(s) with Kris Jenner since make up as a concept is part of the overall Kardashian business plan.  It did give Kylie $1.2 Billion when it sold 51% to Coty.  Kim sold part of her SKKN (20% for $200 Million) to Coty as well.  As of June neither was known to be happy about how they felt the direction each brand was being managed.   Make up can be very lucrative.  Quite.  Forbes has an article of just how lucrative it has been for some people.  People like Hailey Bieber (Rhode to elf for up to $1 billion but the deal has other founders and is said to be stretched over years).  I also saw a list (Forbes) almost 30 people who are either billionaires or mega millionaires through make up.  Some inherited the business (think the various Lauders).  But is that a realistic (meaning good) idea, now? I'm not quite so cer...

Plot Twist!

 Well, that is a plot twist - Prince Andrew is giving up titles - announced by the Palace. Dude is willing enough to face the future without that after his name.  Say what you will but he is being honorable about this (we may not ever know the details of what it took to get it).  Is there something else to come out we don't know about (yet) or is it just it has taken this long to drag out negotiations between the various parties to ink a deal?  Time will tell. For him, I wonder how it will play out about Royal Lodge.  A place he has been totally unwilling to leave.  Or how it will play out for the future of his daughters.  Sarah - let's not go there.  It is a real twist already.  We don't gloat here. BUT what about how it could impact the duo?   Well, well, well. Takes the whole racist claim off the table (and into the nearest deep ocean never to be taken seriously again by most who might have bought it previously).  Expect it ...

Project Thaw or the arrival of the Next Ice Age Continues?

 So I read Richard Eden's article in the DM about how recent events from the couple are actually part of a calculated plan to change how the family views them and ... how the UK views them ... and then they can come back yadda yadda and * will  "... ‘Meghan will return to Britain before the year is out,’ the friend tells me, adding jokingly that she will be ‘bearing humble pie’. It remains to be seen whether ‘bearing humble pie’ - and eating it, presumably - is sufficient to placate the Royal Family or the British people.... ". He ends with a comment about how he would not accept this unless she apologizes to the various BRF for hurting them. Ok.  He also mentions a specific person (1, count it one) Yvette Cooper, who  is new to the job as Foreign Secretary who specifically is open to him, presumable * as well, being more active in the British spheres.  What more active might or might not be is not defined. What we don't know: Is how well she knows him and fo...
