Branson Nose Dives Into Palms

Et Voila! Celeb News For 10.11.07

Branson Swan Dives

On Wednesday evening, Sir Richard Branson celebrated Virgin America’s inaugural flights to Las Vegas by free-falling 40 stories – harnessed to a safety wire of course. But during the fall, a gust of wind slapped the daredevil billionaire into the side of the Palms Casino Resort. Branson emerged alive, but not without some scrapes and bruises.

Gee, I can’t imagine any better way to promote your new airline than crashing into solid objects at breakneck speeds.

On the upside, Branson did apparently scatter free Virgin America tickets as he fell, though none have been claimed. So be on the lookout in you’re in Vegas that weekend.

As part of the ongoing Virgin America festivities that week, Branson threw quite a shindig at the Wynn Las Vegas nightclub TRYST, where celebs like newlyweds (ew!) Pamela Anderson and Rick Salomon (double ew!), Carmen Elektra and The Hills star

Lauren Conrad showed up to take part.

Charlotte’s Web

Nicole Richie and fetus daddy Joel Madden were snapped arriving at Los Angeles universal Airport and thereupon on Thursday near the Sydney Intercontinental, where they are reportedly staying during Good Charlotte’s concerts there that weekend. While other bloggers were buzzing about Richie’s tan line, we’re more interested in the hotel.

Lion Sighting

Earlier that week, news broke that hot-ay environmentalist Leonardo DiCaprio (could he be contributing to global warming with his hotness? I think the reply is yes) is planning a eco-friendly Caribbean hotel in conjunction with Four Seasons Resorts.

Angelina Jolie and estranged, scary-looking father plus known as actor Jon Voight were placed at the same hotel earlier that week, but we know not which hotel nor which city.
