People reports that Hiltie just had to get her groove on in Johannesburg, and even though it was her BF Benji that was on tour, Paris totally hogged the spotlight – he went “totally unnoticed.”

And when Paris got the chance to shout-out to her pals on the hot mic, what did she say? That she loved “South Africa, the accent, and everyone.” So much for jet lag: P. stayed out until 2:30 a.m.

Throughout its seven episode duration, the program starring Lucy Liu and Miranda Otto lost almost six million of its 10.72 million viewer premiere; the final episode achieved ratings of just 4.77 million, and was only the third highest rating program regularly in its timeslot.

Should a second series have been produced, questions may have been raised over its return to Australian television, with ratings declining nearly twenty percent in its opening weeks on the Nine network.

Thirteen episodes were originally to have been produced for Cashmere Mafia’s first and only season, but only seven were ever broadcast due to the writer’s strike.

The Lord of the Rings hunk was dating the stunning Victoria’s Secret model in secret – but was outted when they were spotted kissing in public.

Talking to a reporter about her passion for yoga, she was asked if she ever practices with Orlando. “Ugh. Ha, ha, ha!” she stuttered, before finally managing, “Well, I’m sure he does yoga.”

She blushed as she then added: “He’s a sweetheart and that’s all I’m gonna say. Sweetheart.”

Asked if they spent Valentines Day together, she laughed: “I can’t tell you!”

“I work for Victoria’s Secret – but that’s my secret.”

The duo were in part brought together because of their spiritual beliefs.

Orlando has spoken out about his Buddhist beliefs, and Kerr said: “I practice Japanese Buddhism.

“At the heart of it all, it’s about practicing peace.”

CITY:SCENE 2007-08

NEW YORK: It was 9 p.m. on Halloween and already a crowd of A-list revelers and the photographers who love them were inside the West Side lounge Bungalow 8. Stepping through the club’s velvet ropes, Fabiola Beracasa, the sexy, voluble socialite who is the Venezuelan-born daughter of Veronica Hearst, was dressed as Medusa in a made-to-order serpentine headdress, glittery body paint, freaky white contact lenses and gold-sequined hot pants.

As the photographers sprung into action, Beracasa, one of the party’s six hosts, gamely struck a variety of poses, momentarily jumping atop a leather banquette in her 6-inch, or 15-centimeter, platform heels.

After descending from her perch, she slinked through the crush of bodies to chat with her friend Tinsley Mortimer, another much-photographed girl- about-town, who was dressed as Raggedy Ann in red-and-white- striped stockings.

A few hours later, the photographs were up on Web sites about Manhattan party life, providing fodder to bloggers and glossy magazines that document the social set’s every clothing change. It was another night in the life of the ambitious post-deb set, during a week that included a host of similar photo ops: the Met museum Young Friends Benefit Dance, the Princess Grace Foundation gala, parties at the Jimmy Choo boutique and the Gramercy Park Hotel.

So many parties, so many party pictures. Yet to hear the newest wave of socialites tell it, the businesslike grind of going out nightly is increasingly a platform for creating a business.

Women like Beracasa (creative director of an estate jewelry company), Mortimer (designer of her own handbag line) and many others are exploring a new socialite end game – one in which they become a brand with mainstream recognition (extra points awarded for an actual logo).

Aggressively milking the fame they acquire through their irrepressible urge to dress up and be photographed, they are spinning off businesses that may one day provide nest eggs for the time an inherited fortune runs dry or a Palm Beach marriage goes down in flames, or simply as a means of personal fulfillment.
