Uma is the new Angelina

June 28, 2008

Poor Elle. Looking like this didn’t win her a husband and when I realised that it inspired me to go on a binge eating session like never before. Why be thin? It hasn’t worked for Elle, THE Body, so why, I figure should I be any different.

Even producing long haired Swiss lanky heirs didn’t get what Uma gets. 8 carats and all those Swiss bank accounts. What she got that Elle don’t? Maybe she reads books she hasn’t written. Maybe having Timothy Leary for a stepfather taught her something about bewitching. Thank you People magazine for making me feel better. Elle, if you’re reading this honey, which obviously you aren’t, but if one of your friends is, feel free to drop over for some ice cream and sympathy. Uma’s like the other Angelina.

Uma Thurman Engaged

Uma Thurman is engaged to her Swiss multimillionaire boyfriend, Arpad “Arki” Busson, her rep confirms to PEOPLE.

“I can confirm she is engaged,” Stephen Huvane said on Friday. New York’s Daily News was first to report the engagement.
In return for saying yes, the actress received some serious sparkle: an 8-plus carat center stone surrounded by 20 smaller stones. “It’s the most beautiful piece I’ve ever seen,” says a close source of the diamond ring. “Arki did a wonderful job.”

The pair began dating last summer after attending a private dinner together in Milan. Since then, their relationship quickly heated up despite the fact that the couple lived on different continents (she is based in New York, he in London).

It would be the third marriage for Thurman, who has a son and daughter with ex Ethan Hawke, whom she divorced in 2003. Her marriage to Gary Oldman ended in 1992. Busson has two sons with former supermodel Elle Macpherson, from whom he split in 2005.

No wedding date has been set, says the source.
