It seems that Australia (Sydney in particular) was the hot spot for celebs over the last few days. First Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were in town for the Kerry Packer memorial service. With Katie showing off her baby bump in a Burberry dress.

Then Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were here to flog more of there business empire to unsuspecting parents and their children. And they didn’t look so good, esp in these pictures.

It seems the rumors that Lindsay Lohan started late last year about her fronting the new Chanel campaigns in the absence of Kate Moss are untrue. And this is coming from the man himself - Karl Lagerfeld.

Chanel designer KARL LAGERFIELD has laughed off singer/actress LINDSAY LOHAN’s claims she will front the fashion house’s next advertising campaign, insisting she is too immature.

In December (05) the MEAN GIRLS star boasted she had won a lucrative contract with the fashion giant, following supermodel KATE MOSS’ dismissal over allegations of drug abuse.

But chief designer Lagerfield insists the label needs more sophisticated icons, such as film star NICOLE KIDMAN - who advertises signature scent Chanel Number 5 (corr).

The 67-year-old tells New York magazine, “I prefer Nicole Kidman and that generation.”

On the subject of Chanel, my guess is that Avril Lavigne has been given the same sort of unspoken “contract” that Mischa Barton seemingly had with the couture house (remember when Mischa was sporting more than her fair share of Chanel bags and clothes everywhere?). It seems to me that Avril Lavigne could have experiencing the same treatment.

Just look at the obvious “planting” of Chanel things in this shoot!

Western Australia have really done it this time… a ban is being put in place for 2007, banning jeans (or anything denim for that matter) in Western Australian secondary schools, because according to a spokesman for Western Australia state Education Minister, Ljiljanna Ravlich, “it’s just unacceptable at schools and we are trying to lift the standards.”

What’s next? Thongs (aka Flip Flops)?
