Heather Mills Makes the Scene at Bridgehampton Polo

Paul McCartney's headline-grabbing ex Heather Mills made the scene at week four of the Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge at Blue Star Jets Field in Bridgehampton the other day, sporting a new, shorter hairstyle. At the polo match, which was sponsored by Diamond Teak, the former model was seen chatting with hot young racecar driver Tim George Jr. (above), who appears on the cover of the new issue of Social Life magazine. The match ended with team Great Oaks defeating Heathcote in a decisive 16 to 5 victory. Other onlookers at the match included socialite Denise Rich and the Real Housewives of New York City's Alex McCord with husband Simon Van Kempen and Ramona Singer with her husband Mario. Diamond Teak is the leading teak furniture design and manufacturing company recognized for creativity, originality and function. Guests at The Blue Star Jets Field were able to relax on Diamond Teak's comfortable and stylishly functional pieces, made with wood grown from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)/Smartwood certified plantations in democratic Costa Rica.

Buyers Bounce to Beach, ArtHamptons Flops

The artists are blaming the weather. Despite the fact that we're in a pretty nasty art slump, the optimistic believe that three days of sunshine lured potential art buyers to the beach instead of the ArtHamptons fair in Bridgehampton, Long Island this weekend. Purchases were made, but in general, they were disappointing. Realistically, the sales made sense, given what we've seen at auction over the past year.

Several celebrities did attend the art fair, but they brought little excitement, it seems, beyond their appearances. Jon Bon Jovi, personalities from The Real Housewives of New York City, Kelsey Grammer and Russell Simmons were all spotted, but Bloomberg didn't report any purchases.

The biggest name at the ArtHamptons fair, of course, was Michael Jackson – a creation by Andy Warhol. Originally, Vered Gallery had hoped to sell it via silent auction, but the gallery yanked the portrait late last week ... claiming that collectors were looking at the piece but "needed more time to assess the value."

Or, maybe they were just at the beach, like everyone else, apparently.
