Elizabeth Hurley

Any serious historian will tell you that the pinnacle of Australia’s cultural achievement was when Liz Hurley agreed to marry Shane Warne. Finally we had something we could genuinely be proud of.

Shane Warne and Liz Hurley. (Eds: Please check which is which.)

There are countless reasons why their love has captivated and inspired a nation, ranging from the superficial to the deeply spiritual. Firstly, obviously, it’s a matter of aesthetics. You only have to take in the bee-stung lips, accentuated cheekbones and thick luscious hair to know that you are looking at one of the world’s great beauties, and it’s fair to say that Liz is pretty good looking too.

Secondly, it is a deep emotional connection. Nothing whispers true love like sending sweet messages of longing to your betrothed for their precious eyes alone, assuming one’s other one million followers are all doing something else at the time.

Shane Warne, bless him, has more than a quarter of a million followers on Twitter, and Liz Hurley just more than 41,000.

Honk if you wanna Tweet me…

Presumably they also have email accounts, mobile phones, postal addresses and numerous other ways to contact each other. But in a generous gift to the public, perhaps inspired by the new openness a la Wikileaks, they carried on their flirtation in full view of anyone with an internet connection.

The day celebrities work out that when they write stuff online people can see it will be a sad day.

    I’m impressed, I have to admit. Actually rarely should i encounter a blog that’s both educative and entertaining, and without a doubt, you’re got hit the nail towards the head. Your notion is outstanding; the problem is something which there are not enough individuals are speaking intelligently about. We are… Read more »
