Martina Basabe: The mere mention of her name incites hysterical laughter (we have seen this), which is exactly what happened when her name popped up in our inbox today. Apparently, she's now rounding the charity circuit as a junior co-chair for the May 10th Champion Awards Luncheon (along with retardedly-named socialites Celerie Kemble and Zani Gugelman) to benefit Safe Horizon. The invitation says the purpose of the event is honoring heroes, championing the needs of victims. In keeping with that goal, we award Mrs. Fabian Basabe the Gillette Mach 3 Award for putting on a brave, er, face. —NH
