HOTTEST TOPICS ON COCKTAIL CIRCUIT

Upset over no-show

1. The absence from the high-priced events is causing quite a few eyebrows to be raised in consternation. Some who patronised the events are still expressing their dismay over the no-show and are even more upset that they were not given a satisfactory explanation for the absence!

Poor behaviour

2. The reason it is called the 'Upper House' is because those who sit in it are expected not to defile it with the behaviour of the marketplace or worse!

Advisory role

3. At least one major property has changed hands recently, with the new owners shelving plans to retain its original status for a more lucrative endeavour. And at least one investment company has a new majority shareholder. The old owner is expected to stay on, however, in an advisory capacity.

Investment cash

4. With talk of millions of US dollars being available to grow the business, some are suggesting that the money would be better spent in other places. There are others, though, who said there's no money!

Doors closed

5. The displaced patrons are up in arms now that their favourite watering hole has been closed! They just can't understand the reasons for its closure!

Young boys

6. They say she is Jamaica's female version of R Kelly - she likes her male companions pretty young!

Slow process

7. Some are saying it's only a matter of time before she actually loses more of her portfolio, as the real agenda is to disenfranchise those who supported the old guard and to empower those who came from a new and different background!

Stick to it!

8. The verdict is: She should stick to whatever it is that she does as she is definitely not Hollywood material!
