For the second part of our Celebrities - What Else Can They Do? special I was going to talk about one of this column's personal and political heroes, Heather Mills (McCartney as was), and how she donated to a deprived neighbourhood in the Bronx $1m ... worth of vegan burgers. But jokes-themselves-write, etc, so instead we're going to look at another woman who lives the feminist dream by making a career out of having shagged some old famous guy a while ago.

That's right - let's look through Nancy Dell'Olio's keyhole. Eww.

Actually, it does: Dell'Olio is (and you may have seen this one coming) considering modelling the range herself. "I'm very comfortable with my body," she coos. Counting. The. Motherfricking. Days.
