Catherine says that she has never bought the products, did not receive services from the spa and the company has no right to use her name - which in all fairness is totally correct surely. Also since Catherine has an exclusive contract to promote Elizabeth Arden cosmetics, it is an investment she is bound to want to protect. To the tune of 10 million - naturally!

The Catherine Cricket Challenge! - 15/08/03
The chairman of the cricket club behind Catherine Zeta Jones’ new home has offered a reward to whoever can bat a ball into the garden.

Mark Portsmouth, the chairman of the Mumbles Cricket Club in Swansea has put up a prize of ?100 to the first batman who can pull off such a long shot - and they would only collect the money if they had the guts to ask for their ball back.

Mark said ’One big six could do it. It would have to be a massive hit but it is possible." The batman would have to hit the ball approx 150 yards to get into the garden - but I don’t think Catherine and Michael will be too pleased to hear of this new little game!

Would you ask for your ball back?
