Party With The Stars

which is the real Alf?
Amanda Keller(s)

That's what the invitation said-'party with the stars at the opening of Madame Tussauds" in Darling Harbour. It was a fairly understated affair. The stars?- Layne Beachley, Amanda Keller, Dawn Fraser and a couple of Home & Away stars.

the Shuttle finds Madame Tussauds a little on the creepy side. We went to the one in London 25 years and haven't been back although we know someone in television who goes regularly to check up on celebrities heights, Tussauds being the only place one can really get the correct measurements!.

What do slebs think when they see a real life version of themselves?. It's probably a great example of the ego today's sleb must have in order to succeed-clocking a life size version of themselves and not being frightened to death in the process. One thing we have noticed is that older and wrinkly people come up best in wax as opposed to the young and botoxed, as our pics show.

The Shuttle  went to a do once where they had a Tussauds 'Michael Hutchence on display and having known the singer when he was alive it was startlingly lifelike. His father Kel burst into tears upon seeing it.

Madame Tussauds is now open at Darling Harbour next door to the Aquarium so you can do the sharks and celebrities in one go.

Successful Cross Promotions # 1

Alex Perry
 One of Australia's most  popular fashion designers Alex Perry appeared last night on the panel show 'Talkin Bout Your Generation' compered by comedian Shaun Micallef.

Perry, lying in a bed with panelist Amanda Keller was posed a sticky question-to identify a mystery gurgling sound.

Alex quickly responded : "the sound of an Electrolux washing machine in the spin cycle" he correctly answered to a hearty round of studio applause.

The fact that Perry has an ongoing promotional marketing deal with Electrolux Home Products is entirely co-incidental !
