Austin stars: Lance Armstrong, Kate Hudson, Andy Roddick, Vince Young, Drew Barrymore, Dennis Quaid
While I was soaking up the cool in New England, Austin-linked celebrities went crazy.
Lance Armstrong: After cruising around Austin, our town’s superstar cuddled with new flame Kate Hudson at the Cannes Film Festival. You gotta admire his moxie, even as he insists he and Kate’s ex, Owen Wilson, were never close friends, and thus he’s not picking his pocket.
Vince Young: Apologized for — what? — a shot of him partying with Michael Huff after a charity event? Sure, pictures of the shirtless ex-Longhorns circulated attached to all sorts of catty rumors, but I thought Vince’s mea culpas were unnecessary at best.Drew Barrymore: The frequent Austin visitor, said to be engaged to Apple cutie Justin Long, was seen in Michigan. Maybe she’s decided to take advantage of those 40 percent film production incentives for “Whip It,” the roller derby movie once headed for Austin.
Dennis Quaid: A stranger to Austin lately, despite the presence of his wife Kimberly Buffington’s family — unless we’ve missed a recent visit, and that’s entirely possible — Quaid will be honored June 12 at the Maui Film Fest. Tough gig.
Andy Roddick: The recently engaged tennis star dropped out of the French Open because of an elbow injury. One of his fans has started a “Book Fairy Project” to recycle old children’s books. Last time we chatted with Andy he was reading the “Harry Potter” series. The 25-year-old also placed on OK’s Top 50 Man Candy of the Year list.
