Shannen Doherty: I’m good, thank you. I’m unpacking from New York. I can’t stand unpacking.
No! I’m a normal person. My housekeeper has better things to do.
I help relationships come to an end or sometimes help them go to the next level. It can be boyfriend or girlfriend, or if you want to quit your job.
No, and if that’s the way you’re going with this then I’d rather not even do the interview.
I am not going to have things rehashed from 15 years ago. I’m not going to combat lies. I can already tell what’s going to be in your article.
Let me hang up and call my publicist and then we’ll reconvene, because I’m not going down this path.
*Doherty did not call back. NEWSWEEK’s questions about being a Republican in Hollywood, horseback riding and, of course, “90210” will have to keep.
Paul McCartney, 64, and Heather Mills, 38, have upped the ante in what could be the divorce of the decade. Last week McCartney changed the locks on his London mansion, froze their joint bank account and issued a “legal letter” claiming that Mills removed three bottles of cleaning fluid from his home in Sussex. Cleaning fluid? Things hadn’t gotten so down and dirty when the pair first announced their separation in May–they stated they would split “amicably” for the sake of their 2-year-old daughter, Beatrice. Now words like “gold digger” are reportedly being thrown around. Britain’s richest musician–who claims in court documents that Mills was “argumentative” and “rude to the staff” during their four-year marriage–could pay up to $400 million in the divorce. McCartney has hired Fiona Shackleton, solicitor for Prince Charles in his own divorce, to head his legal team, while Mills has Diana’s lawyer in her court. Those three bottles of cleaning fluid may come in handy if this battle gets any messier.

If fans get misty-eyed watching Andre Agassi play his last tournament, the U.S. Open starting Aug. 28, they won’t be alone. One of only five players to win all four Grand Slam titles, Agassi admits he may cry like a girlie-man at his final bow: “It wouldn’t be the first time I cried.” But he’s up about retirement. “When you have a 5-year-old son who says, ‘Daddy, let’s race,’ and you say, ‘No, I need to rest, I’m playing tonight’–I look forward to not worrying about that.”
