As much as we like to tease them relentlessly, Page Six occasionally knocks one right out of the park. And that’s exactly what happened with today’s lead story on “McCartney’s peg-legged ex,” Heather Mills.
The highlight? The part where Mills’ new French publicist Michele Elyzabeth tries to suggest that it’s not, in fact, Heather who’s crazy. It’s the media! Something Mills and Elyzabeth plan to rectify by cutting off access to the uncooperative (read: negative) press outlets effective immediately. Unfortunately, that whole “What Would Stalin Do?” mantra has not made the former topless model completely impervious to full-scale tabloid attacks.
Like, for instance, this P6 recount of how Mills was, according to Elyzabeth, completely misrepresented by the mainstream media.
Mills, a militant vegan, urged people to try drinking milk from rats and dogs instead of cows, innocent beasts she feels are being exploited by humans. She spouted at the park’s Speakers Corner, “There are many other kinds of milk available. Why don’t we try drinking rats’ milk and dogs’ milk?” Some in the media immediately went in for the kill, calling Mills crazy.
“She was joking about the rats,” said Elyzabeth. “But she was serious about the milk.”
And, apparently, about the dogs. And the plan to revamp her public image by refusing to talk to anyone who might have the audacity (and lack of foresight) to write something negative about the three-limbed gold digger.
No. 1

First off, Heather Mills is hanging herself with her own noose, so hang on, it’s gonna be a bumpy (but oh, so fun) ride. Secondly, she’s a narcistic drama queen who has finally gotten her much needed, much wanted soapbox, given to her first, by marrying McCartney, and now trying her darndest to hold onto it and have it for her own self and not because of her association with a famous spouse. Thing is, she’s become the same sort of joke that Liza Minelli’s ex-husband became and how quickly people shut him off from their consciousness. Mills is heading down the same alley.
