No matter how clean the break-up, no daughter wants to hear that her father still loves her ex. But that???s just want Bill Clinton announced last night at a book party for Chelsea’s ex-BF, Ian Klaus.
???I???m biased because I love the author ??? but I think it???s exceptionally well written,??? Clinton said to the crowd.
The P.R. people at Knopf, which is publishing Klaus???s new book, are probably the only ones who don’t find her father???s doting inappropriate.
And what does Chelsea Clinton???s current beau, Marc Mezvinsky, think about the relationship? All he would say was his standard, “I’m sorry, I don’t talk to the press.”
Come on, Marc. You???ll never get a book deal with that attitude.
In case you haven’t had your fill this morning of stories about the first family promoting new books you’ll likely never read, here’s a late-breaking tidbit about Chelsea Clinton’s ex-boyfriend’s latest tome.
FIRST PAL: There are obviously no hard feelings between Bill Clinton and Chelsea’s ex-boyfriend, Ian Klaus. The former president ??? and perhaps soon to be first man ??? is hosting a party on Wednesday in honor of Klaus’ new book, “Elvis Is Titanic.” And although the notion of ex-girlfriend’s father as book party host certainly isn’t customary, a spokeswoman for Knopf, the book’s publisher, added that Chelsea and her friends will be in attendance. In fact, Klaus dedicated the book to Chelsea.
Meanwhile, we’re sure Ian Klaus’ decision to dedicate the book to Chelsea had everything to do with an elevated level of emotional maturity and sheer respect for her influence on his writing ability and nothing whatsoever to do with his wanting to brazenly capitalize on her name and have former president Bill Clinton host his book party.
