Julian Assange covers Forbes
Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks, has friends in high (and low) places … Just as Nikkie Finke has dominated the Hollywood gossip grapevine with her network of friends from studio heads to mailroom trainees, Wikileaks has some sources of their own that are dumping “secret”, “confidential” and “unclassified” documents from several US embassies around the world.
Some have asked why the U.S. can’t just pull down the documents which could potentially endanger the U.S., foreign relations, missions and even individual lives. Well, the site is run of a host in Sweden which is offers anonymity under under Swedish law and hosts websites on a series of servers and holds no recods making it virtually impossible to forcedly remove documents.
If only Valentine & Olga Rei had this system, no one would of cracked Socialite Rankrank! Continue reading
With several staff writers from Los Angeles Magazine subscribed to our newsletter, we are happy to see the magazine pays attention.
This month, L.A. mag has 50 stories from L.A. 50 natives, most of whom we’ve profiled, listed and discussed here on The Daily Truffle, which is the only media outlet about upscale life in Los Angeles written by people who have grown up throughout the city.
The best natives featured in this month’s L.A. mag, are Jamie Lee Curtis and Adam Levine and not for their celebrity. It’s because they hit the notes we at The Daily Truffle hit.
Jamie sounds a lot like us and should probably be writing for The Daily Truffle. Continue reading
BTW - this is Prince Albert's gf on the cover - she is not available! lol
Move over Will & Kate, time to hear about the other 200 bright, young things in the UK. (I am going to make my own L.A. list soon.) On the Tatler list of hot young eligables in the December issue … among the list of semi-royals, Oxford grads, DJs, fashion maves, titles like Viscount, I spied a few worthy of note: Continue reading
Pierre Sarkozy (L) + Jean Sarkozy (R)
#settleddownpeople, Pierre Sarkozy is not new … If you are a member of asw or read Tatler, the Royal Forums or The Daily Truffle, you know very well the Sarkozy kids are the sons of the current President of France, and that they bare an uncanny resemblance to Princess Caroline of Monaco’s hot blonde sons.
The US press is recently onto them, noting how Pierre is a DJ, but he has been a DJ / aspiring music producer for years now; he goes by the name DJ Mosey. He wears hoodies, raps and hangs out with thugs, and also is quite political, often rapping about the state of the nation – a big topic of controversy in France and the Sarkozy family. Pierre’s younger brother Jean is always a huge topic in the European news … at 24, Jean is married, has a child, holds a political office in France and goes on news shows talking about the state of the nation.

Ran and Rami co-own a recording studio called Fonogenic Studios in the valley - www.fonogenicstudios.com
My mom made the most delicious sweet potato souffle that I have ever flipping had in my entire life. Here’s why this is good news for u: My mom cannot cook, literally… It’s not because she doesn’t want to, she just is really bad at it. If this came out amazing then imagine how much more delish it would be if someone who could remotely cook whipped this up?! Given that my mom cannot cook, and this recipe wasn’t destroyed, then it must be easy to make ! F.Y.I. In a year of writing for the DT, I have never endorsed a recipe. Continue reading
