Even if she’s on Bravo’s popular The Real Housewives of New York CityRamona Singer shouldn’t expect her cheapskate ways to be tolerated.

At least, not in Palm Beach.

Cheaskate? Romano Singer

Cheapskate? Romona Singer

While the entrepreneur mom of one was treated like a princess in Miami Beach last week, she was actually asked to leave the VIP room at the new 251 Sunrise nightclub in Palm Beach Saturday night.

Why? She had a hard time parting with her cash!

I’m told by several sources that Singer first showed up with an entourage at the Boys & Girls wingding at The Breakers Beach Club. There, she and her gaggle of buds picked up an impressive number of coupons for free drinks for the after-party at 251 Sunrise.

Somehow, her crew later got in the nightclub’s VIP room, and the free booze flowed.

The tips were few and far between.

So, Singer & Co. were asked to move to another, more crowded part of the club. (Read more…)

Update: Tempers flared at today’s billboard rally, and not just because someone called Mayor Lois Frankel a Communist. Check out this WPBF video. It should be watched while humming the ole’ Frankie Goes To Hollywood song Two Tribes.

Democrats promised an anti-Rush Limbaugh campaign in the radio hothead’s own hometown, and they’re delivering.

The Democratic National Committee is unveiling today its response to Conservative-in-chief’s statement earlier this year that he hoped President Barack Obama would fail. This truck is scheduled to pull into downtown West Palm Beach this morning, then drive all over the area for the rest of the week.

When Page2Live e-mailed Limbaugh the picture, he replied: “I honestly can’t figure out just who this billboard is criticizing. It appears to me as though the DNC may not be happy with President Obama’s takeover of GM/Chrysler.”

And he couldn’t help but sound off about the truck: “And that certainly doesn’t look like the kind of cheap, tiny Green Hybrid vehicle Obama Motors wants us all driving.” (Read more…)

There’s been a lot of talk at Channel 5-WPTV about News Director Peter Roghaar’s new set of wheels, a shiny BMW 7 Series.

Not only is the 745 LI an environmentally unsound gas guzzler, with 20 mph on the highway at best, but the smooth German-engineered car retails for $80,000 these days.

And that’s the point staffers have noticed.beemer

Roghaar has been tightening the budget screw inside the station, with layoffs that included star anchorwoman Laurel Sauer, reporter Jesse Chavez and even the husband of morning anchorwoman Roxanne Stein, 20-year production veteran Steve Moss. He’s taken away company cars and forced reporters to lug their own cameras instead of pairing them with photographers.  

And all this, while telling viewers to stretch their own budgets. (Read more…)
