Interesting combo!

She's fucking nuts. Unless she's planning to marry and bump him off. Horrible man!

SarahSavesTheDay · 02/11/2015 17:10

Not particularly. Maybe that he's dating a woman in her 60s, but other than this it seems normal. Billionaire + model = normal.

GissASquizz · 02/11/2015 17:10

Eugh. The idea.

SarahSavesTheDay · 02/11/2015 18:02

I'd guess they're having really hot sex.

TheCrimsonPleb · 02/11/2015 18:20

Yikes.

MiniCooperLover · 02/11/2015 18:24

I would imagine she's thinking to the future and has always liked a wealthy man, but even still ugh .... Maybe Mick has stopped giving her any money.

IHaveBrilloHair · 02/11/2015 18:26

Ewwwwwwww

Orangeanddemons · 02/11/2015 18:32

She must be desperate! He is one slimey toad

Amusing how there's no question that this is not a love match.

Nonnainglese · 02/11/2015 18:36

Perhaps he has 'it' as my mum would say......goodness knows what she sees in him unless it's £££££

Cerseirys · 02/11/2015 18:43

WHAAAT?? Since when are they an item? Shock

Orangeanddemons · 02/11/2015 18:56

Ewwww...the thought of hot sex with Mudoch is just too much.

DriverSurpriseMe · 02/11/2015 18:56

I'm not.

What attracted you to an 85 year old gazillionaire, Jerry? Grin

wtffgs · 02/11/2015 18:59

Yeuch! Like shagging a slug, I would imagine!

CallaLilli · 02/11/2015 19:00

I've saw the Stones in concert last year and in person, Mick oozes charisma. He might be a septuagenarian great-grandfather but he's still got "it" in spades and I can totally understand what Jerry would've seen in him. Rupert Murdoch on the other hand...apart from the £££, nothing!

I was left with the impression he didn't have much 'fight' left in him after Wendi Deng hooked up with Tony Blair. This, according to a fascinating Vanity Fair article.

pigsDOfly · 02/11/2015 19:10

Okay, I was all prepared to say you're all being unreasonable, that he's a strong powerful man and that can be a huge aphrodisiac, but really (I googled them). What the hell can she possibly see in him? He's old and wizened and he's got a weird pointy head. Eugh with knobs on.

And I speak as a woman of a certain age - not quite as old a Jerry if she's 70, as pp said, but not far off.

SarahSavesTheDay · 02/11/2015 19:10

I'm far more fascinated by the James Packer/Mariah Carey union. Anyone else?

SarahSavesTheDay · 02/11/2015 19:12

She's 60. This puts her right on track (or slightly old?) for dating an octogenarian in billionaire-world.

pigsDOfly · 02/11/2015 19:13

Would just add, I don't care how rich he is. There just isn't enough money in the world.

SummerMonths · 02/11/2015 19:14

His money is all in trust to his kids so if she's after his billions she's barking u the wrong tree. Maybe she's just after headlines and access to the most glamorous and powerful people.

pigsDOfly · 02/11/2015 19:15

She's 60? When did she get to be younger than me. I'm sure she used to be older.

PlymouthMaid1 · 02/11/2015 19:15

This is a thread which I kind of wish I had never opened - the mental images are both disturbing and long lasting.

It's slightly bizarre but at least with him, he isn't the best-looking guy around (and never was going to be with that father) but at least he's relatively young and perhaps has the power thing going on. Although I guess it can't be the money that's the attraction, as Mariah has plenty of her own.

If you want truly weird then it begins and ends with Geoffrey Edelston (sp?) and his wives!
