Lord Alan Sugar Vs Piers Morgan #2

Dreams of Stardom..

It was just a short time ago Whispers brought you the news that artistic Sydney duo Charles & Christa Billich were heading for the USA and a planned meeting with US president Donald Trump.

This info was imparted to us as we were being whisked home after a party in the Billich's sleek chauffeured Bentley.
Now news arrives that the colourful pair are to feature in a US reality TV show. And why not? Everyone is doing it these days.


Partnering in this proposed fab series is Aussie LA based budding show-biz star James Maas (pictured) who also appears in many scenes in the pilot as our snaps show. But where is Charles? It seems James (30 something) is romancing Christa (70) in most scenes. Possibly inspired by the glamorous French First Couple Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron.
Well the Billichs are a freewheeling pair.

According to Maas he is working with US producer Adam Schroeder  who produced The Truman Show and the very weird Zoolander hit movies.
The film follows the colourful pair as they attempt to open an art gallery in Los Angeles.

And what of Mr Trump?. When he gets through with dealing with the errant Kim Jong Un and North Korea surely he will host a dinner at the White House for Charles & Christa.
After all, the trio have so much in common.

And just to remind our loyal readers: here is what happens at an average Billich party...and below that..a scene from the series Real Housewives of Sydney Maroubra where Christa marries her cat. As one does.

Things that happen at 10am

Maybe the Big News is that White House press secretary Sean Spicer has finally resigned (what took him so long?) after being asked to organise a press conference at the ungodly hour of 10am.

Sydney however is now a day time city with it's once thriving nightclub scene having been almost obliterated by the Lock Out Laws.

So a 10am invite to meet the UK reality TV star Julie Montagu (she appeared in the US Bravo show Ladies of London) at the Inyoga centre in Surry Hills was well within our stride.

Julie is oddly billed as the "future Countess of Sandwich" which seems a tad strange. She already has a few titles. Lady to begin with due to her marriage to Luke Montagu who has the discreet moniker Viscount Hinchingbrooke in his passport.
In the pecking order of titles, as these things go, a Viscountess is a step up from Countess but then as Luke is already the Viscount, Julie should already be the Viscountess. All very confusing at such an early hour.

 Julie hails from Chicago and is known as the Flexi Foodie and is a nutrition expert and yoga teacher and whatever she's doing, it must something right as she looks radiantly healthy. The meet & greet with Montagu was to launch her range of healthy eats. You can see more about her great recipes here.

US election update

Jon Ossoff, an American documentary film-maker and former political aide is the Democratic candidate for Georgia's 6th congressional district which will take place on the 20th June. Ossoff has created some serious waves and even incurred the wrath of President Donald Trump (which isn't that hard) given he picked up 48.1% of the vote in an election that was predicted a few months ago to be easily won by Republican candidate Karen Handel. As neither candidate got a majority vote they will compete in a run-off vote this month.

And a little known fact- Ossof is also half-Australian. His mother Helen Fenton (pictured with Jon) hails from Sydney and emigrated to the US where she married Thomas Ossoff with the couple settling in Georgia where Jon was born. As an investigative journalist Jon has exposed human traffickers, been responsible for taking down dozens of international corrupt politicians and has exposed ISIL atrocities in Iraq. He makes a formidable opponent as can be seen in this debate 3 days ago. It's that Aussie spirit !
