‘Uptown’ Christie’s downer
WHAT A SITE! Builders are still swarming over the Beckhams’ new home eight months after they bought it ■ FORMER “Uptown Girl” supermodel Christie Brinkley has asked friends to help her find a new man.
The four-times married blonde, who is still stunning at 63, says she hasn’t even dated since splitting from singer John Mellencamp in August last year.
She admitted: “It’s very different at my age. It’s like, when you’re young, no problem.
“But now it’s not so easy. I’m counting on my friends to pull something out of the hat and introduce me to someone new.”
Her former husbands include “Piano Man” music legend Billy Joel and she starred in the video for his hit Uptown Girl.
The mum-of-three, who has a net worth of more than £79million according to America’s Forbes Magazine, claimed many men are intimidated by her fame and fortune.
And she pleaded: “I could use some advice on where to meet a nice guy.”
With her children now grown-up, Christie is selling one of her two mansions to “downsize”.
But she added: “It’s not as easy being single again as I thought it would be.” BRITISH travellers book fights to the USA more than to any other country.
Holidaymakers who shun flight and hotel package deals in Europe buy flights separately and head to the States, Australia and South Africa, according to long haul specialists Flight Centre. The top city destination is Sydney.
