...conservative-leaning Times of London sarcastically praised Comme Si Rien N'Etait as quite possibly "the best album ever made by the wife of a head of state," which, while undoubtedly true, is also a typically British form of insult. But Bruni is not a joke singer, or a novelty act crossing over from one genre to another. (And yes, I'm looking at you, Scarlett Johansson.) Bruni's 2003 debut, Quelq'un M'a Dit, sold over two million copies and thrilled critics...

The 20-year-old American exchange student with the Ivory-soap complexion was on her way to jail, charged in the murder of her British roommate, who was stabbed in the neck and bled to death in the flat they shared in the picturesque Umbrian capital...

Like her parents, the younger daughter was forthcoming with Follain about details of her sister's life and descriptions of her generally cheery disposition. Deanna Knox, however, kindly asked not to be photographed...
...British have a reputation for being colder than dead fish on ice. Perhaps that's why the News of the World video so enthralled the public, drawing 1.4 million views within a day of going online. But if Mosley is any indicator, British frigidity may give way to something much livelier in the bedroom. No one has exact numbers, but small-scale BDSM surveys estimate that 10-15% of the British population indulges in the behavior. And BDSM may actually be therapeutic.
