The Scoop on Tori & Candy Spelling...
Like Mother, Like Dynasty
If you've heard the scuttlebutt that Candy Spelling might be selling her real-life Dynasty pad in Holmby Hills (for the rumored price of about $150 million), I've been told--oh so discreetly--it's true. Yep.
If she can find the right buyer, that is.
Jeez, who the hell's that gonna be? And what a waste, too. I mean, can't somebody just settle for a little ol' shack somewhere in next-door Bel-Air for about $75 mil, and then donate the other 75 to AIDS research, or help for those in the Middle East?
I know, I know, that's like expecting freebie-suites at the Emmys to start giving iPods to the homeless (or, at least, to some poor schmuck in the San Fernando Valley). Ain't gonna happen.
Oh, should prolly mention I'm not supposed to tell you any of the above, Spelling-wise, I mean. See, the house's sale--should it go through--is not listed anywhere. It's all being done by fancy-schmancy lip-glossed word of mouth.
Also, as long as I'm telling you dirt I'm not meant to, well, let's just say if you're hoping for a tearful, heartfelt mother-and-child reunion between the astoundingly estranged C.S. and Tori, well, think again. And again.
Actually, I don't think a meeting of the minds between the two highlighted honeys is such a far-fetched idea. When it comes down to it (during games, girlfriend tawk and gabbing, etc.), the two gals are both rather sweet--please stop barfing right now--and salty and très fun. I know.
Sure, there's plenty of bad 'n' rich blood between TV legend Aaron's wife and only daughter. But it's Candy and Tori's requisite entourages who are stoking the familial fires and keeping reconciliation far outta the pic, trust me. Wonder why?
"They don't want them anywhere near each other," whispered a confidante very close to both über-rich gals, regarding each other's retinue of seemingly good-willed amigos. "They're doing everything they can to keep them apart."
As if they needed any help.
Shame, really. But how fitting all this real-life tsuris is for the man who gave us some of the tackiest, most outrageous soaps in history, huh?
Let me explain (alas, as much as I can): Both Candy and Tori were born into the megabucks. They're used to swimming in the actual pools Joan Collins and Linda Evans pretended to hob-nob round before they pushed each other into them. And, how can I put this? Well, let's just say certain peeps who aren't as silver-spoon-fed as are the Spellings, are attaching themselves to both babes--and trying to call the shots between the two women, as a result.
Ain't that the way? Often the war you're watching has nothing to do with the warriors themselves. Sound familiar?
