That's How It Happened

This entire post is almost entirely in breach of the Chatham House Rules, but too good not to share.

Story No 1:
Mr X and Miss Y while house hunting in Primrose Hill were shown around Jude Law's house. The highlight of the whole tour was a peek inside the walk-in wardrobes. My sources report "at a conservative estimate", 450 pairs of sneaks, all neatly filed in their mint boxes. I knew Jude had in the past been a big Bathing Ape fan, but that's still unexpected. Scanning though Google's repository of Law pictures (NSFW), I can find plenty of him with his cock out, but none in which he appears to be wearing trainers. Perhaps he's just a deadstock collecting maniac.

Story No 2:
While I was picking up a pair of purple Nike SB Avengers (and matching shirt) at a certain central London sneaker boutique, they mentioned that Damon Dash had been in the store earlier that week.

Damon Dash: "I'll take one over every pair of shoes you have in US size 9 and a half."
Store assistant: "Sir, that will be over 300 pairs of shoes."
Damon Dash hands over black American Express card.
Store assistant: "We don't take Amex, not even black Amex."
Damon Dash: "No problem", gets out Vertu mobile and calls Goon.
90 seconds later Goon shows up with £35k in cash in a hold-all.

I didn't actually establish how Damon got his shoes home. But since he never wears the same pair twice, he must face this problem all the time.
