Ooo la la, Netflix

Netflix is making a French version of House of Cards (which is already a U.S. version of a Brit TV series). It will be titled Marseille, will focus on dirty politics in that port city, and will star - it had to be - Gérard Depardieu. (There's a rule that he has to be in any film made in France or in French.) Debuts next year.

Hilton, wed

The Hiltons sure know how to keep money in the family. Nicky Hilton, baby sis of Paris, married banker fellow James Rothschild on Friday at Kensington Palace in London. Paris was lady in waiting (who doesn't wait for anything), and mom Kathy Hilton was, of course, there. Guests included Chelsea Clinton and hub Marc Mezvinsky; and Kyle Richards and fam (except for Kim Richards, who's in rehab).
