Tennis stars, celebs, beautiful people descend on Key Biscayne for Sony Ericsson Open

The Sony Ericsson Open is in full swing on Key Biscayne, and the tennis tournament is about celebs as much as the world-class tennis. For each Rafael Nadal on the purple court, there’s a Spice Girl in the stands. And for each Serena Williams splashing in the surf between matches, there’s a high-heeled Kim Kardashian doing the coin toss. See it all in the Page2Live gallery by clicking on the photo or here:

Ski hero Lindsey Vonn schusses to water park

Winter Olympic hero Lindsey Vonn is headed to this area.

The most successful American female skier ever is slated to sign autographs and hang with fans April 10 at Rapids Water Park in Riviera Beach.

The Alpine specialist, and Sports Illustrated swimsuit model to boot, won one gold medal in downhill at the recent Vancouver Olympics and three consecutive World Cup championships.

But her skiing prowess isn’t the only reason why the folks at the water park are flying her in.

The water park is making a habit of inviting big time female athletes who also look good in swimsuits to usher in the season. Car racer Danica Patrick and model Kathy Ireland were there in the recent past.

“We picked Lindsey for her success,” said park spokeswoman Tina Hatcher. “She’s a great role model. Plus, she also appeared in a Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue (holding skis in front of her bare breasts).”

Fox News superstar Bill O’Reilly, the non-nonsense host of the top-rated The O’Reilly Factor, preached to the converted Friday night at Palm Beach’s Mar-a-Lago.

In his “State of the Union” talk, the conservative host blasted liberal rival MSNBC, calling it “little” because “eight people watch it.”

Comparing the White House to the Chicago mob, O’Reilly said he hopes for low approval ratings for Pres. Barack Obama because, when that happens, The Factor’s ratings go up.

And he predicted that Republican Mitt Romney would take on Obama in the 2012 presidential elections, with Sarah Palin’s third party candidate siphoning votes from Obama.

But O’Reilly, 60, didn’t really come to talk politics. He came to help shine the limelight on a newbie on Palm Beach’s charity landscape: the It Happened to Alexa Foundation. And it worked. About 400 people paid up to $600 for a photo with O’Reilly, his speech and a steak dinner.
