Here is Sir Paul McCartney on his way to the Stella McCartney fashion show during Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010. He’s still looking cute, there is definitely a reason why he was called the cute Beatle!

Last night Paul McCartney played the first concert ever at Citi Field in New York. It was 45 years ago that The Beatles first played at Shea stadium and last year, Billy Joel invited Paul to play at the last concert there. And last night Paul opened the new Shea Stadium… Citi Field.
During the show, Paul kept referring to the shows that The Beatles played there, how the acoustics was bad at those shows and how all they could hear was the screaming girls in the audience. It was raining at Citi Field last night and Paul encouraged the audience: “We’re in it together”
At the end of the show, Paul returned a favor to Billy Joel and invited him to be a special guest during “I Saw Her Standing There.”

Paul McCartney made his first appearance on the David Letterman show today. It was 45 years ago that The Beatles appeared on the Ed Sullivan show and today, 45 years later McCartney returned there. He performed 7 songs on the marquee of the Ed Sullivan theater. I feel so lucky to be able to watch his performance. Make sure you tune in to watch him on David Letterman tonight.
Click on the gallery below for pictures from Paul’s performance and even a picture of Bruce Willis who was at the show as well.
Heather Mills, the annoying gold digger, just can’t go away!!! Today, she opened VBites in Hove Lagoon in East Sussex.
VBites is offering vegan food inspired by every corner of the globe along with vegan treats. There is also a place for kids to play, internet access and a bar.
Just like Ex-husband Paul McCartney who is asking people to have a meat free Mondays, Heather is trying to show people that veggie food can actually be good. But if you ask me, I think that she’s doing it to get some good points with the media.

Paul McCartney joined by his daughters Mary and Stella McCartney, Yoko Ono, Moby, Kelly Osbourne and Kate Bosworth as he launched his Meat Free Mondays campaign:
“I think many of us feel helpless in the face of environmental challenges, and it can be hard to know how to sort through the advice about what we can do to make a meaningful contribution to a cleaner, more sustainable, healthier world. Having one designated meat free day a week is actually a meaningful change that everyone can make, that goes to the heart of several important political, environmental and ethical issues all at once.”
Many chefs created vegetarian recipes for the campaign’s website. Not eating meat one day a week doesn’t sound that bad or difficult once you check out those recipes, doesn’t it?

Pretty cool stuff - wish I could go!

Even the some of the wealthiest celebrities have been hit hard by the tough economic times. BBC News reports:
Singer Sir Elton John, for example, has seen his wealth drop 26%, from £235m in 2008 to £175m in 2009.
Sir Paul McCartney is worth £440m, down from £500m, while pop mogul Simon Fuller has £300m, after losing £150m.
Below is “The Music Millionaires Rich List 2009″ published by The Sunday Times:
Wow! Even though they’ve lost a lot of money, they can take comfort in the fact that they won’t be homeless and hungry anytime soon.
