Angelou becoming party animal at 70

For Maya Angelou, turning 70 didn't just bring a birthday party. It brought months of parties.

The poet turned 70 on April 4, but the celebrations keep going. First Oprah Winfrey threw a bash including a weeklong cruise. Then there was the birthday fund-raiser in London, and next month there will be another fund-raiser.

``Yes, the celebration has been going on all year, and I'm still standing, thank you,'' Angelou said from her home in Winston-Salem, N.C. ``I believe I've had enough birthday parties this year to carry me into my 90s.''

Oval Office edited out of Hilfiger fashion ads

A Tommy Hilfiger ad campaign that included a picture of a model sitting on a desk in a fake Oval Office will be changed to remove any future reference to the White House.

In a letter to the designer, the White House legal office asked that the ads be changed because of a longstanding policy that the White House not be used for advertising purposes.

The request was not prompted by the controversy surrounding President Clinton's relationship with Monica Lewinsky, White House spokeswoman Amy Weiss said Monday.``They've agreed to withdraw the campaign, and we're grateful that they're complying with our request,'' she said.

The ads previewing the designer's fashion fall line, began appearing in the September issues of some magazines, including Vanity Fair, Glamour, Harper's Bazaar, GQ and Forbes.

Ruth Pachman, a spokeswoman for the Tommy Hilfiger company, said the campaign was not intended to be a political statement.

``It was designed to capture the positive spirit of American democracy,'' she said. ``It was meant to be a tribute.''

In a July news release to introduce the new ads, Hilfiger said: ``We wanted to use as a theme what the White House represents to the American people - a symbol of hope.''

Pachman said that pictures will be edited to delete any references to the White House, though it was impossible to pull the ads from September and October issues. The pictures that ran in those issues were not scheduled to run again.

``As soon as the company received the letter . . . it began complying with the request immediately,'' she said.
