What The Rich Ladies On Glamour’s “Love Your Life” Panel Can Teach You About Work-Life Balance

Yesterday I was thrilled to leave work early and attend Glamour magazine’s “Love Your Life” conference, held at New York City’s 92nd St Y. I only got to hear one of the two panel discussions: “Love Your Work Life.” With a lineup including “Top Chef”‘s Padma Lakshmi, designer Anna Sui, makeup guru Bobbi Brown, Dylan’s Candy Bar owner Dylan Lauren, and my old boss, politics blogger Arianna Huffington, who wouldn’t be psyched? The panel, moderated by journalist Deborah Roberts, was supposed to be about “high-achieving women discuss[ing] success and work-life balance.” And while there were some really solid gold pieces of career advice dished out (Anna Sui, adopt me!), I also couldn’t help but feel frustrated by how little I could relate to these women, who are faaar wealthier than the average woman ever will be.

David Spade Performs Jedi Mind Tricks On Padma Lakshmi

David Spade, what is your secret for getting the ladies? His latest out-of-his league catch is Padma Lakshmi of “Top Chef.” Wha? Didn’t she just pop out the Dell dude’s baby? That little detail aside … David Spade? Really? But should we be surprised? David has been linked to a long list of hotties including Pam Anderson, Carmen Electra, Heather Locklear, Jillian Barberie, Julie Bowen, Tara Reid, Lara Flynn Boyle, and Kristy Swanson. Holy hottitude. Sure, he’s OK-looking, he’s definitely funny, and he’s from my hometown Scottsdale, AZ (not exactly a selling point), but he must be using some kind of Jedi mind tricks. He’s like a superhero when it comes to women. This dude should write a book and help others out. [Celebitchy] Keep reading »
