Looking to give their looks an upgrade, Christie Brinkley and her daughter Alexa Ray Joel both underwent plastic surgery earlier this month.
According to a report, the supermodel and her singer daughter both had work done at Manhattan?s Lenox Hill Hospital just hours apart from each other.
The mother-daughter team dropped somewhere in the neighborhood of $60,000 for Brinkley?s facelift and Joel?s nosejob, both courtesy of Dr. Norman M. Rowe.
And it sounds like both ladies got exactly what they wanted. A source close to the family told press, ?Both Alexa and Christie are so happy.?

I followed Christie Brinkley’s rather fascinating divorce closely last year. Christie came across as a kind of neurotic power mom who worked hard to make life fun and cupcake-filled for her two youngest children. Her ex husband, Peter Cook, seemed like a royal scumbag. He was having an affair with an 18 year-old girl he hired to work at his architecture firm and was blowing thousands of dollars a month on online porn. This was Christie’s fourth marriage and all three of her children are from different husbands, so it would seem that if she’s guilty of anything it’s piss poor taste in men.
After the divorce was finalized, Cook went on 20/20 and whined to Barbara Walters that he cheated because his wife wasn’t giving him enough ego-stroking. Brinkley then filed for a restraining order to keep her children away from Cook, claiming he violated the confidentiality clause of his $2.1 million divorce settlement by going on 20/20 and by showing footage of their children, Sailor Lee, 11, and Jack, 14. (Jack is from Brinkley’s third marriage, to Richard Taubman. He was adopted by Cook.)
Nearly a year later and Cook is still trying to get back at Christie for not letting him see his kids. A 40 page affidavit from a former nanny who worked for Christie way back in 1994 when she was divorcing her second husband, Billy Joel, has come to light. Cook doesn’t exactly take responsibility for leaking the document, but it seems like he’s the one responsible.
Cook and Brinkley have officially reached a settlement, but he’s continued to charge that she’s trying to turn their children - their daughter, Sailor, and Brinkley’s son with Rick Taubman, Jack - against him.
That’s why Cook is cheered by the delivery of some fresh dirt on Christie, courtesy of Alzirene Vianna, who looked after Billy and Christie’s daughter, Alexa Ray, from June 1993 to December 1994.
In 1995, when Billy and Christie were still dealing with matrimonial issues, Vianna gave Billy’s lawyers an affidavit, which we’ve obtained.
Vianna alleges in the never-aired 40-page statement that:
“Christie never encouraged Alexa to call Billy” and told Vianna to eavesdrop on phone conversations Alexa had with Billy. When Vianna took Alexa for a visit with Billy, Christie told Vianna to let her know if Billy was drinking again. “I want you to spy for me,” Vianna quotes Christie as saying.
After Christie had left Billy for handsome Colorado businessman Taubman, she was packing her bags for Telluride when Alexa, then age 8, started “acting up.” “Christie told her in a very harsh tone that if she wanted to come with her to Colorado … she would have to stop behaving like this, because she didn’t want Alexa to ruin her relationship with Ricky.”
It wasn’t long before Christie and Rick were getting into arguments: “Ricky would … kick furniture and slam doors.” Once, while staying at a hotel in California, Rick wouldn’t let Christie into their room. “Christie started pounding on the door and kicking it … Rick later told Christie: ‘No wonder Billy left you; who can live with you?’”
Once, while Rick was getting into a car outside their house, “Christie opened a window, threw something and said, ‘[Bleep] you, you ass-!’”
People began to talk about “Christie’s addiction to prescription drugs.” Said Vianna: “I remember going to the pharmacy every day in East Hampton to get several prescriptions filled for [Christie].”
Christie wouldn’t grant Alexa’s wish for Billy to come to school events. Alexa sobbed when she said goodbye to Billy after a visit and “seemed to withdraw.”
Gary Smith, a spokesman for Cook, says Vianna’s tales of “parental alienation and interference … unfortunately continue to this date and come as no surprise to Mr. Cook.”
Claire Mercuri, who represents Billy and Alexa, says, “These accusations are false and unfounded.”
Brinkley’s lawyer, Loren Plotkin, calls Vianna a “disgruntled employee,” adding: “Christie Brinkley denies these baseless, false and malicious allegations. … One must question the motive of the individual who dredged up this document as nothing more than a shameful, transparent and ultimately fruitless attempt to hurt Christie and her family.”

Peter Cook is such a dirtbag and he’s digging up whatever he can to try and make it seem as if Christie is turning his kids against him. I don’t know what’s going on with his visitation, but he made his filthy bed and those kids belong with their mom. Even Billy Joel and Alexa deny this story by a nanny who worked for them for all of 18 months. It’s telling that this 15 year-old document is the best dirt that Cook can dig up on Brinkley, because even if all these claims are true they’re not that damning.

This story really touched me, and I wanted to share it here. Christie Brinkley is endorsing a new project meant to help young girls learn about charity and do their part. Through selling kits for charity-based tea parties for tween girls, Tea Party Angels hopes to educate them about the situation of girls and women in the third world along with raising money for worthy causes. The group supports charities throughout the world, with a focus on girls’ education. Christie explains in a video on the website for Tea Party Angels (link has automatic video) that “Just one party could buy tuition, a uniform, books, a bike for one girl so she can go to school.”
Brinkley and Tea Party Angels founder Cheryl Beck explained the project to MomLogic. Beck calls Tea Party Angels “a tribute to the memory of my grandmothers Beck and Jackson. Two completely different yet amazing women whose tea cups I keep visible to me every day for inspiration.” She has a background in marketing and wanted to do something to raise awareness and money for charity:
Momlogic: Cheryl, how did you come up with the tea party idea?
Cheryl: There’s so much movement around helping girls’ education around the world. I really feel passionate about it — and I wanted to use my creativity and marketing talent to put something together and give back. I tried to come up with something that would be like a party in a box — something really easy in terms of a fund-raising opportunity.
ML: Christie, aside from being here today, you and your daughter host the Tea Party Angels video. How did you get involved?
Christie: They tracked me down and I’m so thrilled and honored that they did. I really feel that our kids should be giving back, and that girls are overlooked. They really don’t understand the power that they have. Girls and women are naturally nurturing, and so to actually tap into that power and give them a way that they can literally change the world is so amazing. It’s wonderful for our daughters to come to understand that they can make a difference.
ML: A girls-helping-girls-by-doing-something-girly concept? What a win-win!
Cheryl: I thought if there are girls that need help around the world, then what better opportunity than to have girls in the U.S. helping them and really learning that all girls don’t have the same privileges that we have. There are so many girls that don’t even know that girls in other countries don’t have schools. So, part of our mission is to spread awareness, and that will foster the spirit of wanting to give back in charity. But it has to start with an understanding that these girls don’t have the same basic necessities.
Christie: The event actually illustrates to them how they can help people. It’s not just an abstract concept. They can learn about the chain of events that happen when they get involved. They learn that they can either stay in front of a computer or TV set, or go out to an event and raise some money — which in a third-world nation is a ton of money — and they can see what happens when a girl their age is exposed to a book, a school, a library … it opens up an entire world of opportunity and possibilities.
I just think it’s so wonderful. I was shocked to learn that no one else has empowered young girls. It’s amazing how many kids really want to help. We just need to provide them with a formula. The tea parties are a really fun formula — they can see their friends while giving back and making a difference.
ML: What are your goals for Tea Party Angels?
Christie: I want thousands and thousands of mothers and daughters hosting tea parties across the country. Even if the tea party raises a little bit of money, it’ll add up to millions and really make a difference.

You can learn more on their website, and order kits for a charity tea party for $35, which includes cups and saucers for six girls, a teapot, and an educational DVD. This is such a great concept and good for Brinkley for lending her star power to such a worthy cause!

After spending the weekend with her daughter, Sailor, at the Hamptons Internation Film Festival, Christie Brinkley was back in court on Tuesday (October 13) with ex-husband Peter Cook.
The seemingly always feuding exes presented the judge in the case with a settlement agreement - which ended up being accepted.
As previously reported by Gossip Center, both Christie and Peter were accusing the other of violating terms of their custody and divorce agreement.
When asked by the press if she wanted to see Peter go to jail, Christie shot back, “I never said that.”
Meanwhile, when Peter left the courthouse, he was all smiles and said he’s just “glad it’s over,” adding, “We could have done this a long time ago without this media circus.”

Unable to put aside their differences, Christie Brinkley and Peter Cook are still not at peace with one other.
The former couple’s malicious divorce trial made headlines last summer and once again the duo was handling a messy day of court charges and counter charges of violating the settlement agreement.
During court in Long Island, NY, lawyers for Peter, who had cheated on Brinkley with a teenager, accused Christie of trying to ruin his relationship with their children, Sailor and Jack.
Claims were made that Brinkley did not provide Peter their son’s passport for a class trip to Egypt that he was chaperoning and the son could not go. Peter’s lawyer also threw in many demands, even Christie doing jail time.
The Covergirl’s lawyer said she was a few hours late to give the passport because her friend’s mom died and Peter refused to get it from her home. The lawyer also said Peter has violated the settlement by giving a television interview with Barbara Walters and by letting his new girlfriend, Suzanna Shaw, spend time with the kids on a boat the couple once shared. Christie’s lawyer also added demands - including jail time as well.
Legal experts have announced that it is not likely jail time will occur, but they will be back in court on Tuesday.

There are several really gross parts to this story, so I?ll start slowly. First, there?s Alexa Ray Joel, the 23-year-old daughter of Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley. I think Alexa?s pretty, in that pale, bug-eyed, Anne Hathaway kind of way. So, Christie Brinkley is Alexa Ray?s mother, and as such, Christie is interested in setting up her single daughter with someone nice. Now, let?s stop right there - Christie Brinkley rather infamously went through her fourth divorce, to Peter Cook, last year after he was caught having an affair with his very young assistant. I?m not saying the affair was Christie?s fault, I?m just saying that she?s been married and divorced four times, so maybe she doesn?t have the best taste in men. But that?s not stopping Christie from playing matchmaker… and how. She wants to set Alexa up on a date with… John Mayer.
Rocker John Mayer has the approval of former supermodel Christie Brinkley if he ever wants to date her daughter Alexa Ray.
Newly-single Brinkley admits she’s quite fond of the singer/songwriter herself but insists her “cougar days” are over when it comes to dating toy-boys.
However she says, “He’s perfect dating material for my daughter… You guys could make beautiful music together.”
Singer/songwriter Alexa, 23, is Brinkley’s daughter by rocker Billy Joel.

Jeez, Mom. Aim higher, right? I would be totally offended if my mom wanted me to date John Mayer. Alexa Ray is by no means so unfortunate that she has go for John ?Bottom of the Barrel? Mayer. This just speaks volumes about Christie - her taste in men isn?t just bad, it?s epically horrible.
This story just make me thankful my mom knows my taste in men, and she?s rooting for me to meet Gerard Butler, even though Gerry doesn?t really float her boat. Even though it?s a little gross, I don?t think my mom would even mind George Clooney as a son-in-law, although he?s closer to her age than mine. But I think my mom?s heart was broken when Matt Damon ran off and married Luciana, and didn?t even call my mom to see if I was available. Matt was the one who got away, for my mom at least.
