- <p> Ricki Lets the Fur Fly
- </p>
- <p> During the past few years, animal activism has attracted Kim
- Basinger, Christy Turlington and other glamorously thin personalities.
- So it may make sense that newly sveltish TV talk-show host RICKI
- LAKE has joined the cause. Last week Lake and other members
- of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals raided Karl Lagerfeld's
- Manhattan offices to denounce the designer's use of leather
- and fur. They blared, "Karl kills!" and Lake wound up arrested.
- The overlap of her well-publicized protest with the November
- ratings sweeps was pure coincidence, she said.

- <p> A Nice Girl's Fatal Heat
- </p>
- <p> Little in her happy-family, Catholic-school upbringing could
- have readied LINDA FIORENTINO for her role as one of film's
- most vicious femmes fatales. As a murderous telemarketer in
- The Last Seduction, Fiorentino degrades men with a wickedness
- that has won raves even from auteur-of-the-moment Quentin Tarantino.
- Fiorentino, 34, says she knew no women evil enough to base her
- character on, so "I tapped into what I know about ruthless men."
- Next she stars in the thriller Jade, and she hopes to work with
- Martin Scorsese and Alan Rudolph. "If they were directing the
- yellow pages I'd do it," she says.

- <p> Driving Miss Rosie Straight to a Prenuptial Agreement
- </p>
- <p> Time heals emotional wounds, but apparently so do burly chauffeurs.
- Last April, right in the midst of her tiringly raucous breakup
- with husband Tom, ROSEANNE ARNOLD hired a 240-lb. driver and
- bodyguard. By summertime, Roseanne, 41, and former mechanic
- BEN THOMAS, 28, were vacationing in Tuscany not as mistress
- and servant but as new lovebirds. Last week Roseanne, who will
- be divorced from Arnold next month, announced that she and Thomas
- will marry next year on Valentine's Day.

- <p>SEEN & HEARD
- </p>
- <p> It is a man of great temerity who challenges the exceedingly
- muscular SYLVESTER STALLONE. But at a recent party in England
- hosted by ELTON JOHN, RICHARD GERE reportedly accused Stallone
- of becoming too friendly with his wife CINDY CRAWFORD. The gods
- seemed to be smiling on the graying, comparatively slight Mr.
- Gere: Sly ignored him.
- </p>
- <p> Editors are comparing it to The Bridges of Madison County, but
- The Horse Whisperer promises more than a conventional middle-aged-guy-meets-melancholy-housewife
- plot. It is a love story about a man who tames wild horses by
- talking to them. The film rights to the book by British journalist
- NICHOLAS EVANS were recently bought by ROBERT REDFORD for $2
- million. Last week the U.S. publishing rights went for $3.15
- million--a record for a first novel. And how does the book
- end? No one knows. Evans hasn't finished it yet.
