I know some of you are saying “what am I going to do for Valentines Days?” Here’s an article from the folks at Urban Daddy that we thought you might be interested in:
We thought you might need some last-minute inspiration. So we immediately thought of Kristin Davis. As the former leader of “the most successful prostitution ring in America,” the Manhattan Madam ran a stable of 60 girls. But in 2008 Davis was collared and sent to Rikers. Just out of the big house, and with a tell-all memoir hot off the presses, Davis sat down with us in the plush lobby of the Algonquin hotel to talk about women, madaming and her plans for Valentine’s Day. (Note: they might include you.)
Urban Daddy: Do you have any Valentine’s Day plans?
Kristin Davis: Last year I had planned a wonderful Valentine’s Day. I rented a suite at the W Union Square for my boyfriend. It was raining but I got in a cab and went to his favorite restaurant, Philippe Chow uptown, the only place in the world for Peking chicken. I had a little cake made at a bakery with our initials.
UD: Sounds like you’re pretty into it.
KD: I like the romance of Valentine’s Day. I don’t want the traditional gift. I want something sentimental. I want a message in a bottle. I want custom-made M&M’s with my initials. I want my Tiffany necklace engraved with my name on it. OK, you can’t afford that? One flower and a really well-written letter would suffice. I don’t need to be taken out so much. I want someone to pamper me, give me a foot rub and do all the things that women really like.
