Martha Stewart Banned from Britain
What do Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg have in common? Well, for one, they both appeared together on an episode of the "Late Show with David Letterman" earlier this year. Oh, and they were both denied travel to Britain because of their criminal histories -- Martha, for her ImClone justice obstruction; Snoop, for a brawl at Heathrow Airport in 2006. Snoop's been doing well with his appeal, but Martha can't party in the U.K. anytime soon.More:
- "Lifestyle guru Martha Stewart hopes to return to the United Kingdom as soon as a reported travel ban stemming from her criminal history is 'resolved,' the chairman of the company she founded said Friday.
'Martha loves England; the country and English culture are near and dear to her heart,' Charles Koppelman, chairman of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, said in a written statement.
...A representative of the British Borders Agency would not comment on Stewart, saying only that 'we continue to oppose the entry to the UK of individuals where we believe their presence in the United Kingdom is not conducive to the public good or where they have been found guilty of serious criminal offenses abroad.'"
