Love isn’t cheap, just ask Paul McCartney and Eliot Spitzer.
It has been a busy time for Sir Paul McCartney.
With the recent announcement of a long-awaited deal with iTunes that will finally allow fans to buy downloads of their favorite Fab Five music, McCartney struck a digital goldmine.
Which brings us to Heather Mills McCartney.
Viewed by many as a gold-digger, Sir Paul’s ex-wife has been embroiled in a lengthy battle with the Beatle over his vast fortune. Today a judge ruled that McCartney’s ex, the mother of his daughter Beatrice, is entitled to $48.6million.
Considering they were only married for about four years (they wed in 2002 and McCartney filed for divorce in 2006), that comes out to just over $12million per year, or a little over one million dollars a month.
Another gold-digger making headlines, Eliot Spitzer’s prostitute friend Kristen, aka Ashley Alexandra Dupre, is turning negative publicity into slightly smaller payday, with sales of her mp3 music downloads jumping in price from $0.20 to $0.98 each, AP reported.
That’s not too shabby considering the songs are practically worse than the similarly skanky Pussycat Dolls.
Of course, Dupre was reported offered one million dollars to pose nude for Larry Flynt’s infamous Hustler Magazine.
In honor of Sir Paul’s rough week and the high cost of cheap love, we offer Fab 5 Free Beatles downloads that sum up his short marriage to Heather.
