Sarkozy Kisses Carla Bruni On The Pleasure Boat
MORE news on Nicholas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni, France’s answer to Lembit Opik MP and his Cheeky Girl.
“JE THAMES,” puns the Sun, showing its readers a picture of the topless stunna and his girlfriend canoodling on a boat down the Thames.
“Over here, Kermit,” cry the tabloid paparazzi from the river bank. “Bombs away,” scream the schoolchildren from Westminster Bride as they give full throat to the entente cordiale.
Mrs Sarkozy is soon back on dry land. She is the Mail’s “lady in rouge”, which is Frenglish for Lady in Red, which is a song in which singer Chris de Burgh rhymes “dance” with “romance”.
France is Britain. And Britain is France. This is all “crazy”. The Independent looks on as “Britain went made for France’s first lady”.
Or as Le Parisien newspaper puts it in more sophisticated tones: “Les Anglais conquis par Carla” (The English charmed by Carla).
And of Mr Sarkozy, La Bruni’s little sultana?
As the Independent says: “Asked if the closeness would last, M. Sarkozy – who knows Mr Brown from when he was French finance minister – replied: ‘It is more than a one-night stand. We will go into the next-day breakfast.’”
It is the beginning of a love affair. It is the entente amicable. It could be the start of a beautiful friendship – or someone getting shafted…
