THE LATEST celebrity status symbol is an eBay charity auction. Dennis “The Menace” Rodman is auctioning himself - or rather the opportunity to party with “Rodzilla” - in Vegas during his favorite time of the year ... Halloween.

So what does a guy who wears a wedding dress and is seen regularly in women’s lingerie and feather boas wear on Halloween?

THE SOCIETY of Seven is being inaugurated into the Las Vegas Walk of Stars.
