Netscape Billionaire To Wed Supermodel This Weekend

In two years she's not gonna be able to live on $35 million.

Mymoustache

just remember the prenuptial @siliconvalleydropout:

Necker? I hardly knew her!

Look, he's only allowed to touch her shoulder in public.

TillieHarper

That's sad news all around.

I'm sorry for her loss/financial gain.

TillieHarper

@Trixie from Toronto: Well, she is turning 29. In Super-Model world, unless your Heidi or Tyra, its time to settle.

ludwigk

@Uncle_Billy_Slumming: And here I thought it was the stamp for the mail order bride.

@Weegee's bored:

That's a lotta woman. Do billionaires by them by the pound? Okay, okay, too bitchy... it's probably true love.

28 vs 64

well done jim

@Uncle_Billy_Slumming: I think that might be a communications/data chip glowing through her scalp: "Must. Amass. Great. Wealth. In. Fastest. Possible. Way. As. The. Master. Programmed. Me. To. Do. Oh. Yeah. And. Never. Stop. Smiling. Real. Big. It. Will Fool. Them. All. HA. HA. HA. HA."

@Uncle_Billy_Slumming: Her secret is that she's the love child of Tinki Winki and Po.

If you visit Maui, stay out of the water.

Scout 3.0

She's a trophy -- check out the little television screen on her forehead.

I'm sure she really loves him just for him.

Don't forget about those HAWT Tad Craig-nakedy honeymoon shots! WOOT!

knitterly

Is every model now called a supermodel? I've never heard of her.
Do men really believe that young beautiful women love unattractive older men for who they are or do men not care if women love them as long as they are having sex with a young beautiful woman?

Smokey Orleans

Erm, Mr Clark may I present you the case of Mr David, and the Swedish Countess as a cautionary tale?

Hey gramps, why can't you just be happy bangin' a model, and she be happy getting all your money. Why you gotta complicate things by making it legal? These stupid old men......yeah, because she loves you for you.

**bangs head on keyboard**

ShortStaK

Netscape? What's Netscape?

gwendemarco

@PersonOfInterest:

Yes. Every model has now been upgraded to supermodel status.......eventhough none of us have ever seen or heard of them.

ShortStaK

@PersonOfInterest: She fakes it like she means it.

She has to wake up next to THAT every morning?
Bwahahahahahaha!

Now I ain't sayin' she's a gold digger...

Ryan Pierce

"Really, Jim? Really?? Your big smile and winning personality?"

Smokey Orleans

Great photo. Someone else's hand on Jim Clark's ladyfriend.

@PersonOfInterest: The answer is b) Men do not care if women love them as long as they are having sex with a young beautiful woman. This holds especially true for wealthy men who do not need to rely on their wife to take care of them, etc. And actually many young, beautiful women do love older, wealthy men. Based on millions of years of evolution, women are very attracted to material assets and other things that will help make their and their childrens' lives comfortable.

blimpyboy

Jim Clark isn't bad-looking. Also, he's rich, and I can't blame him for not marrying an older, set-in-her-ways, ugly person. I'm poor and I wouldn't do that.

Wide age-gaps in the choice of spouses runs in Kirsty's family. She is the grand-daughter of one of the most corrupt State politicians ever to have not served in Australian politics.

"Giving geeks everywhere hope..."
Why to I have the feeling that a geek making $23,000 a year shouldn't be so hopeful?

Forest4theTrees

Gross. So very, very gross.

Almostbanned

@blimpyboy: I'm pretty sure material assets are a recent invention in the history of time. Everyone likes a comfortable lifestyle. That doesn't mean they necessarily like the person who is providing it.

PersonOfInterest

@blimpyboy: That just short-circuited any interest I may have had in anthropology, true as it is. Billionaire is the new hunky he-man (or maybe its always was).

When I was 28, I would have have made the wrong decision and said, "Ewwwww," in keeping with the rest of my decision-making failures.

It could be true love. When I was 21, I met and at-first-sight loved a man who was 27 years my senior. It turned out that he was millionaire. But I loved him because he, depending on the lighting, looked like Harrison Ford, a young Robert Redford, and Steve McQueen. And because he could whip my ass at tennis.

There was awkwardness, at first, when we had the sit-down with my folks after he proposed (he was older than my dad), but that soon went away. As did he. Funny thing was, after me, he dated a powerful, multi-millionaire (import/export) woman his own age.

souldecirce

@PersonOfInterest: Grade inflation has spilled over into the modeling world.

"Trimspa, baby!"

This guy is gonna get all of your IP addresses and have you all fired from your jobs.

@kookla: Thank you.

Sullygulliver

All the Larry Pages were taken when Kristy got to the billionaire store. This old-timer was all they had left. She got a discount.

Selene Whiting

@PersonOfInterest: It matters not. He is your king.

Sullygulliver

Right, because 28 year old bikini models who prefer billionares are obviously low-maintenance type gals. @aurora*raby:

Selene Whiting

Because she cut him off. Menfolk. It's the oldest trick in the book!@ShortStaK:

Selene Whiting

@PersonOfInterest: Maybe "supermodel" is now like "head nurse." Somebody check her knees.

@PersonOfInterest:

Speaking as Gawker's resident token Orstraylyan... Kirsty is SUPER DOOPER, and she's a model. Which makes her a SUPER DOOPER model.

Actually, I only know her as a sometime catwalk model and cover girl. I'm not sure what, exactly, catapults a clothes horse to 'super' status. But I don't think she's there. And, now, is unlikely to ever get there. But, hey! Cha-ching.

And in other rather surprising news, this infamous Aussie (well, infamous here, anyways) is her grandfather: [www.news.com.au]

@PersonOfInterest: No. Women have always wanted the best caves and nicest pelts.

Charlotte Rae's Web

@Uncle_Billy_Slumming: Bravo, I nearly needed a new keyboard that hit me so hard.

Charlotte Rae's Web

I'll get shot down for this, but they don't look that bad together.

Bad still, but not bad bad. He looks decidely non-creepy, though his actions could be judged as otherwise, and she looks convincingly content.

@PersonOfInterest: No, they don't believe it. They just want the trophy.

pmarble

@Trixie from Toronto: My thoughts exactly. Do they know they're a walking, talking cliche?

pmarble

@siliconvalleydropout:

well done Kristy

/Ashley Dupre

@aurora*raby: Good point. Because there are no non-set-in-her-ways, non-ugly women over the age of 30.

Soooo.. when she was born, he was 36 years old. Doesn't seem so awful when you think of it that way, eh?

Excuse me...

horf!!!

get the buttah

@No Day Like Friday: I don't think they look that bad together either. I love photos of horny grandpas too.

Selene Whiting

He doesn't believe it, does he? He knows it's a rental...tell me he knows it's a rental...

ohnothimagain

@Mymoustache: she will need $20,000 alone for face powder.

barb95

You mean, "giving geeks WITH MORE THAN $100,000,000 everywhere hope".

lrubemp

Yeah every model nowadays is called a supermodel. Even those who havent walked a catwalk!! But look out for a divorce soon with a huge payout. Why do men never learn? Does he actually believe that she loves him? Or in love with money.

sashajames

Uh, Kristy, you have Marie Douglas David on line 1, she says it's urgent.

DanaeZuu

@ShortStaK: He's been married... 6 times? 8 times?

He is not new to this marriage concept. Nor are is lawyers.

amphora

@undefined: but this *is* love.

anyone have any idea what the pre-nup is?

alloftheabove

@aurora*raby: I think what disturbs me most in that litany is "set-in-her-ways".

Because god knows the first thing I look for in a partner is malleability. All the better for conforming to my iron grip! Bwa ha ha!

limber

Ah...the stench of old mutton...

laura_pinkstone

I like how there's only one word connecting them. In the picture.

rustface

@blimpyboy:
Do they care that the woman is actively grossed out every time he touches her, or does that possibly make it even better?

dkissam

28 is kinda old for him, doncha think?

Anyone who choses a "job" as a model, is superficial to begin with. When your whole idea of who you are, is wrapped up on exterior presentation and worldly decorations...well the two are a match made in heaven.

I'm just glad I'm not the one who has to hump him in the morning. "Good Mornin' Grampa! We got hitched last night. Unroll it and let me suck it baby!"

And I'm 35 and not a supermodel.

Two shallows keeping two other quality people from being miserable.

There is nothing worse than being in a relationship with a superficial.

@aurora*raby: He's definitely not bad looking but that guy looks like he's sporting a ted kennedy body.

Queen of the Passive Aggressives

These men that do this humiliate their families and themselves.

They show how unintelligent they are with their choice of woman. The old perverts convince themselves that people are "just jealous" ...

when in fact, everyone is laughing at the old fool. Including the woman standing next to him who is actively convincing him she is the prize and loves him so much...and everyone is "just jealous." And their conversations are about what?

"Kristy darlin', when I was a kid..."

Eventually the little girls get tired of playing the role, have the ritualistic burning ceremony of the pre-nup, they grow up, and cash in. Then they are 35 and looking for someone to really parntner with.

I'm sure we just met Mr. Clark's "future Ex"

suecitysue

@son of spam: But not my point at all. If you had enough money to buy (or attract) anything you wanted and sustain it, what would you buy?

Oh, baby... surely you could have found a sugar-daddy with more sugar, less daddy. That's like a grizzled gramps daddy...

What? Sorry?

Oh. You're a hopelessly vapid whore? And totally in it for the money? I see.

Nevermind!

GuyBitchy

Oh, well. Nonetheless, each has something the other wants.

@limber: I'm a phoenix in my late forties and date often. For normal people in my age-group and older, the routine often becomes manifest, making compromise extra difficult. Keep laughing. You'll see.

Just because someone can, doesn't mean they should. No matter how rich they are.

I am attracted to only older men, but not more than 10 years older. If you are in a relationship with more than that 10 years, you are really skating on thin ice and should take stock.

There are significant generation differences even with 10 years from my own experience. The more differences between a couple, the less likely their relationship will survive.

It's amazing what people will do WITH their money, and what others will do FOR money.

The new bride will be fucking the pool guy/tennis pro/ski instructor/chauffer in 3...2...1...

AndreaEuryale

@aurora*raby: What does "I'm a phoenix" mean?

limber

Golddigger or Daddy Complex. Either way. . . gack. I need to shower having this post.

At least she isn't Asian.

@Trixie from Toronto: Look at your picture. Imagine you are both normal, middle-class people with equal incomes and fame levels. Do you think that the people in that picture would ever, ever get married in that situation? If the answer is no, it isn't love.

I hope for his sake, he got a pre-nup.

ZukeZuke

I don't understand all the misogynistic comments here, which demean the young beautiful woman as a golddigger. How come he's not a youth-beauty-body-digger? It's ridiculous. And why should she stay with him if he won't marry her, if marriage is important to her. Perhaps they're both superficial people and looks and money are what they're after, or perhaps they actually do have a deeper understanding, in spite of the age difference. Hard to believe the latter, but you never know!

@aurora*raby: yeah, wtf is a phoenix? is this some b.s. term for an old dude who just got divorced and is trying to bang hot young chicks? gross.

withapologies

@withapologies: Self-righteous indignation is HOT! How old are you, honey?

Obviously, she's T4.

Yawn, another Howard Stern "SuperModel" marriage. Old. Money. Young. Pretty. Let me know when Madonna marries the 24 year old.

TroisFilles

@aurora*raby: No, seriously -- what's a "phoenix" in that context? I've never heard of the term used like that; who's the bird, what are the ashes?

limber

@limber: Ach. Your perseverance and literalness frighten me. Go watch Jean Cocteau's "Le Testament d'Orphee," and then speak to me of birds and
ashes.

And you're lucky I'm a sphinx only when I'm drowsy.

@amphora: Say what??? Is this guy trying to put Elizabeth Taylor's record to shame?

And to think, American's won't let gay folks marry, huh? Because they'd be mocking the ever holy experience of marriage? But asshats like this are allowed to walk among us? Sheesh!

Give me boys getting married anyday compared to this flippin' fiasco!

ShortStaK

Anybody remember "The Edge" with Anthony Hopkins as the Billionaire, Elle McPhereson as his young trophy wife? Remember what happened? Remember? Is the new book out yet, "The Men Who Buy Their Women and The Women Who Let Them Thereby Continuing The Pathetic Shallow Cycle of The Oldest Profession: But Probably Now With Your Tax Dollars?" Is it? The Editors would demand a name shortening: "Let's F@*k Each Other!"

fletch212

@Ryan Pierce: But she ain't messing with no broke.....

ShortStaK

I bet he lied about his age and told her he was 90.

He's not a bad looking old cat, I'll give 'em that. But lets get serious here people......shit drops after a certain age. He's got a droopy butt, and we all know it. I'm having a Sex and The City moment ala Samantha and her much older man friend, over here!

That being said, a porno-hot young hard body, looking for an older man to 'take care' of her? Has a daddy complex. I see nothing wrong in a bit of an age gap say like 10-15 maybe 20 years....for either party. But she just looks like his grand-daughter, which is nasty.

If his new wife was a couger, in her 40's say or even in her late 30's? That would be more age appropriate and they could actually look good together, because you know, she wouldn't look like a CHILD standing next to him!!

He just looks like a tool. Period.

ShortStaK

@1Melanie: Bravo!

ShortStaK

she looks like she's in $$$$love$$$$!

henhen

Is she a top or a bottom?

laura_pinkstone

All right Goddamnit. Now I've got some populist rage.

atlasspanked

@aurora*raby: Call me old fashioned, but I don't want to buy my spouse. And I'd never sell myself either.

I've been asked out by several men who are old enough to be my father. Not once have I been even remotely tempted to say yes.

darina

@No Day Like Friday:

That's because you can't see the bottle of Vicodin in her hand (empty) and the bottle of Viagra in his hand (full.)

TroisFilles

Do they look worse than Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones though? This guy looks like he was a cute guy when younger. 64 isn't ancient - but compared to 28?

TroisFilles

@aurora*raby: Definitely my favourite comment of the day. Like interpretive dance in prose.

limber

Reading this you know that Saturday would put a suitcase bomb next to Monday if Sunday wasn't always in the way.

@darina: I can relate: Whenever I'm asked out by men old enough to be your brother, I laugh. BTW, what do you think a marriage contract is?

@aurora*raby: Clearly, not the same thing you do. Thank God.

pacocornholio

both bring something the other lacks. why does this raise any eyebrows in this day + age?
many years of happiness :)))

"and in 1974 threatened to knock MPs' blocks off." suggests good intentions but a lack of follow-through. By "corrupt" do you mean he stole? We've found that that's considerably cheaper than "doing good", not to mention the "doing good for my friends" variety.

SushantiIshcabibble

It's true love... of money.

@laura_pinkstone:

what? he's in his prime!

Now her on the other hand....

@aurora*raby: To me, the most outlandish part of that paragraph is "Jim Clark isn't bad looking." But then I wear glasses and maybe my prescription needs updating. Nah, he looks like the type to marry a model to prove to himself that he's virile.

so, women can be treated like objects, if you have the dough....

aerospaceman

its generally a good match. if the woman wants a family, she can have it, and moneys no worry, so whats wrong with it.

doesn't generally work the other way around since it would be genetic suicide for a young man to marry an old woman!!

:)

Justifan

@PersonOfInterest:

i don't see whats wrong with it, its a deal like any marriage/relationship, he brings power and wealth, she brings youth and beauty. its just a matter of the extreme end of the spectrum because well, most old geezers don't have that kind of pull. it happens in all relationships to a lesser degree, people aren't in it for nothing. they get the best deal they can manage.

how many powerful executive women are married to plumbers!!

dkissam, are you grossed out every time you touch your non supermodel spouse?;)

Justifan

@Justifan: This is not just like "any marriage/relationship." Come on, now. Do you really think she'd be with him if he wasn't a billionaire?

OrneryBabe

maemae

Girlfriend will be earning every pair of Harry Winston earrings she receives, every private plane trip to Fiji, every couture Balmain gown she places lovingly in her closet. Girlfriend is marrying a man old enough to be her father (if not her grandfather). There is some intoxication with power (be it an elder Silicon Valley executive or a musician). It happens all the time.

QadimOtter

Hey dude, if I was a 64 year old billionaire marrying a beautiful babe like that, I'd rent the biggest stadium within 100 miles of where I grew up and invite everyone to come and watch on the big screens me french kissing her. I'd make sure there were live feeds to Times Square, and the biggest electronic billboards in Hong Kong, London, Tokyo, Rio, Rome, Paris, Sydney, and New Delhi. A billion dollars can buy a lot of "hey, look at me" time.

justgroovy

Why do old rich men marry the younger chick? Give the girl/girls a condo, some spending money, gifts, etcetera, but do not marry them!

ToddCW

Can he still get a BONER?

EdwardMatchbox

Aaah how sweet, now if only her father had paid a wee bit more attention to her we wouldn't be having this wedding right about now. This looks like a serious case of daddy was absent/ignored me vs. I want to relive my youth and never face my mortality! Yikes! Wake up people find your own age range. Signed, not your average psychologist

RileyCachuwanna

These age inapproptiate relationships are dumb for a few reasons. She's going to want kids, he won't even be around to watch them graduate middle school, he might not be able to get it up for her in a few years, she's going to be administering his meds in a while, etc.

@TroisFilles: Erm yeah!!!! .....36 years difference here! Michael Douglas looks dodgy next to Zeta Jones, and that's a 25 year gap.

ShortStaK

he's only 64 and rich, so if this "super" model expects him to die soon and leave her a bundle, she's going to be waiting for a long, long time

waterstested

This guy is a sexual simpleton. If he was shrewd, he'd be Ron Burkle, 60 years old and riding 18 year olds all day and night. Then on to next one. But marry a 28 year old at his age? Please. She'll be doing the Haitian pool boy within 2 years.

I remember when I was young and beautiful and could have married a rich grandpa-man but then I saw his saggy balls and all the dollar signs left my money-hungry eyes. I decided to get a college degree, make my own money and sleep with hot guys. I wonder what she'll do when he pops on the bi-pap machine after the honeymoon? Ha ha ha ha ha ha !!!

CarlNemean

What I dont get is why billionaires dont say fuck it and start their own harem. If I had that kind of money Id discreetly pay actresses high 6 figures to fuck my brains out over a weekend. Id also stay in really good shape and act like your archetypical classy James Bond type so the girls would enjoy it too, might be fun to really let myself go and not bathe etc. and get off on their squeemishness, there would be 24/7 lesbian oil wrestling at my sex mansion, even when Im not there like how theres always a play at mr burns place. I jerked off 9 times today and have never kissed a girl
