Makes the $30k Charlie gave Kacey Jordan look like a drop in the bucket.

from www.newser.com – What a generous guy Silvio Berlusconi is. He claims he didn’t have sex with an underage stripper, yet he showered her with some $300,000 in gifts, according to prosecutors. Diamond and amethyst (her favorite) jewelry, two Rolex watches (which she didn’t like), a fur stole and a black Valentino dress encrusted with pearls were among the 24 presents the Italian prime minister bestowed on the 17-year-old Moroccan dancer nicknamed “Ruby Heart Stealer,” reports the Telegraph. Despite court cases linked to other scandals, it’s the latest sex and abuse of power charges which are threatening to bring down Berlusconi’s government.
