NEWS LITE : PRINCE WILLIAM NONJUDGMENTAL.


He may look like mom, but he apparently acts more like dad. That's the low-down on Prince William, according to Ladies' Home Journal Ladies' Home Journal

Ono sends big gift despite final snub

She wasn't invited, but she sent a gift.

Yoko Ono has donated $300,000 to women's causes in Linda McCartney's name, even though Paul McCartney left her off the guest list for his late wife's memorial service last week in New York New York, state, United States

. Victim Services in Manhattan, a private agency that helps battered women, received $100,000, and four similar groups in England shared $200,000.

Ono and her rock-singer son Sean Lennon also sent flowers to Riverside Church in Morningside Heights for the service June 22. But neither was invited, apparently because of a long-running feud that began in the late 1960s when Paul and Linda were said to resent Yoko's influence over her husband, John Lennon.

Linda McCartney died in April after a battle with breast cancer.

Celebrities to pay for dinner invitation

In this case, the Friends of Bill are Alec Baldwin and his wife, Kim Basinger, who will throw open the doors of their home in the Hamptons to President Clinton for a Democratic National Committee fund-raiser on Aug. 1.

The gathering, advertised as a summer lawn party, is expected to draw Robert De Niro Noun 1. Robert De Niro - United States film actor who frequently plays tough characters (born 1943)

There's no word yet on the menu, but it's just one of several stops Clinton will make on a dining-for-dollars weekend.

And by the end, you can start feeling the sense of family there,'' said Banderas. It's just the love of a husband for a wife. . . . You know the woman is already conquered, and what you have to do is just keep the flames alive. You have an ending that is very husband and wife. It's a different way of approaching. It's a different way of kissing. It's a different way of touching - as when you were romancing, when you were approaching her for the very first time, when you are a lover.''

Streisand nuptials orchestrated with precision

So your invitation to Barbra Streisand's latest production didn't arrive in the mail? Join the club! Word is the diva put on a spectacular show - and she did it with her trademark controlling, obsessive flair. Streisand pored over every last detail, from the guest list to the music to the reception, which featured a gourmet barbecue.

She insisted on Perrier for her guests - but the caterer delivered San Pellegrino. So, a half-hour before Wednesday's wedding ceremony, Streisand ordered the caterer's assistants back into their trucks to get the right brand of H2O.

Hundreds of bouquets of gardenias, lilies of the valley and stephanotis worth more than $15,000 filled a white tent overlooking the Pacific on Streisand's Malibu estate. Oscar-winning composer Marvin Hamlisch conducted a 16-piece orchestra.

Guests arrived by the vanful, including Donna Karan, John Travolta and Kelly Preston, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, director Sidney Pollack and Quincy Jones. Even President Clinton's brother, Roger, was there with his wife, Molly. As the guests rolled up, guards shone flashlights at the paparazzi pa·pa·raz·zo

Streisand, 56, was married before to actor Elliott Gould. Brolin, 57, has been down the aisle twice before. The really big question: When multimillionaires marry, do they prenup? Streisand and Brolin ``definitely signed a prenuptial agreement prenuptial agreement (antenuptial agreement) n. a written contract between two people who are about to marry, setting out the terms of possession of assets, treatment of future earnings, control of the property of each, and potential division if the marriage is later ,'' said filmmaker Peter Jones, who is making a documentary on the diva for A&E.

The 43-year-old man settled into his seat at the Southroads Mall theater in Bellevue, Neb., for a show recently when he found chewing gum stuck to his pants.

Irate, the man got up from his seat and began hollering for the manager. As his voice rose, his pants dropped. The 5-foot, 380-pound man began walking through the theater in his underwear, yelling for the manager, police Capt. Herb Evers said.

Holding out his gum-splotched pants, the man walked into the lobby and yelled at a clerk behind the concession stand, Evers said. When the manager did not immediately arrive, the man - still in his underwear - punched out a glass case displaying a movie poster.

Theater employees called police, who cited the man for disturbing the peace and criminal mischief. He was released on his own recognizance own recognizance (O.R.) n. the basis for a judge allowing a person accused of a crime to be free while awaiting trial, without posting bail, on the defendant's own promise to appear and his/her reputation. .

The mime abandoned the traditional no-talking policy long enough to order a teller to give him cash. The suspect then jumped into a getaway car driven by an accomplice.

Police hope to put the mime in a real box when they catch up with him.
