Chateau Marmont, and Secret World of Celebrities

I was chatting with a dear friend, Nash Yacoub, on the phone tonight. She's the former Editor in Chief of platinum magazine, and has just recently launched Succarra, which will be delivering exclusive, high-end gift bags to top celebs on special occasions. Genius. Nash is the best celeb-spotter I know. When we used to attend fashion weeks together, she's the one who would spot Elle Macpherson whizzing by us in Soho, or Sarah Jessica Parker pushing her baby pram across the street. Anyway, Nash recently stayed at the legendary Chateau Marmont in LA, and was stunned at the A-listers she spotted while dining there on a single evening: Salma Hayek, Penelope Cruz, Jared Leto, Jessica Biel, Selma Blair, Sienna Miller, Paris and Nicky, Britney Spears, Mary Kate and Ashley, etc. After every female celeb's name, she would utter the same words: Her skin literally glowed. Forget great work and a top publicist. It seems the real secret to celebrity superstardom is unbelievable skin.
