Page Six asks:

January 27, 2006 -- WHICH babe-loving billionaire has started checking IDs of the young models he invites on his private jet? The randy retail king is nervous that his high-altitude hookups with underage playthings will draw unwanted attention from his more respectable friends . . . WHICH hard-nosed power lawyer is quaking in his hand-stitched loafers about a looming indictment that could land him behind bars for years? . . . WHICH spurned starlet hired a private investigator to tail her philandering boyfriend all around Hollywood after their painful breakup? . . . WHICH squeaky-clean former soap actor is battling a secret addiction to crystal meth? The hunky star once checked into Passages rehab in Los Angeles in a failed bid to kick the habit.

1 and 2... who knows. 3. Lindsey and Wilmer? 4. John Stamos?

I was thinking the first one would be Richard Branson. It says retail stores and he has the Virgin stores and airline

Richard Branson has been married forever - I saw his wife on Cribs. But then again who am I to assume people are faithful?

1: That 'Girls Gone Wild' guy--what the hell is his name?? Joe Francis??
2: Robert Schapiro?
3: Nicole Ritchie!
4: I thought of John Stamos too--he's looking a bit torn up lately

^^agree with the Francis guy but "respectable friends?" And I can't decide on the spurned starlett. The list is long.

Could it be....the HOFF?!?

spurned starlet- Lindsay Lohan and Wilmer Valderrama... hence the the reason for her obsession with Ashlee/Wilmer and Ashlee writing the song "Boyfriend"

Here are guesses from Gawker readers. I'll go with Bing on the first, Bert Feilds on the second and no idea on the third.

Quote:

On Friday, we stuck you with some relatively challenging blind items; after a weekend of cockteasing, we’re ready to go ahead with the results.

The billionaire who checks the IDs of all potential private jet hookups who board his plane, lest they turn out to be fantastically underage: Virgin freak Richard Branson, Grocery darklord Ron Burkle, Paul Green (who?), Sy Syms, Steve Bing, and Paul Allen. Most disturbing answer: Joe Francis, who is most certainly not a billionaire — and we’re a little disappointed that you thought otherwise.

The tough-guy power lawyer looking at an even tougher indictment: You guys really want this one to be Bert Fields, dontcha? Why so much hate? Is it because he threatens anyone who so much as breathes a word of negativity about client Tom Cruise? Maybe, but there’s the Pellicano wiretapping scandal that doesnt look too good for him, either. The other likely guess was Bill Lerach, whose former firm Milberg Weiss is in a bit of trouble. And a handful of you were hoping for Allen Grubman, just because.

The jilted starlet who hired Magnum PI to follow her cheating ex around Tinseltown: Oh, who hasn’t done something like that? Popular guesses included Sophia Bush, Sienna Miller, Jennifer Aniston and, of course, catch-all blind item queen Lindsay Lohan.

The former soap hunk with a hankering for crystal meth: Call it the Jodie Sweetin effect. Suggested guilty guys included Josh Duhamel and Josh Duhamel — thus explaining his otherwise inexplicable relationship with tweaky Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie.
