Move over Santa Claus, Lady Gaga has opened up her own Christmas workshop. The singer cut the ribbon to officially open her holiday center at retailer Barneys New York. Gaga designed an entire floor of shopping - complete with Gaga-themed jewelry, clothing, and foods.
In other Gaga news, the singer made an appearance at the International Emmy Awards where the United Kingdom won five honors. The highlight of the night was Gaga presenting Nigel Lythgoe with an honorary prize; Lythgoe has been nominated for an Emmy six times in the past for his show "American Idol."
Finally, what's in a name? Several billion, if you happen to be Donald Trump. The real estate mogul, reality television star, and author estimates his net worth at 7 billion dollars in a forthcoming book, due out December 05. Trump's figure is billions more than Forbes magazine's estimate of 2.9 billion. Much of the 4 billion-plus discrepancy lies with something Trump calls the "brand value" of his name.
