"PETER COKE"
Yowza, wasn't Peter Cook a girlie-man when he was young! And with a coke bust under his belt to boot. How utterly 80s. There are conflicting stories in the National Enquirer and the NY Post about whether or not Cook did jail time for his coke bust. If he had done hard time -- in prison -- he definitely would have been some bubba's bitch. Wonder if Christie ever snorted?
8 From the NY Post ... CHRISTIE HUBBY'S '82 DRUG BUST: In the latest humiliation for the supermodel mom, court papers obtained by The Post reveal two-timing playboy Peter Cook was busted for selling a gram of coke to an undercover cop in 1982 - and served two months in 1983 in a Suffolk County jail.
Brinkley's estranged husband was "dealing fairly extensively in the Southampton and Bridgehampton areas," the narcotics officer who caught him said in a probation officer's report.
8 From the National Enquirer ... COCAINE SECRET BEHIND CHRISTIE BRINKLEY DIVORCE: The ENQUIRER has discovered that Cook was 23 at the time of his arrest on November 10, 1982. He was busted for attempting to sell cocaine to an undercover cop. The incident occurred at a Long Island, N.Y., highway rest stop. A source familiar with the case said the incident occurred at the "East Bound" rest station at Exit 52 of the Long Island Expressway (L.I.E.). Said the source: "The L.I.E. rest stop was said to be a meeting place for gay men seeking anonymous sex.
8 You just know that Hollywood is itchin' to do this story. Now it's H'wood's affair: Casting has already begun for the film version of the latest Christie Brinkley divorce saga — at least in the minds of some Hollywood producers.
8 Not to be outdone, Her Royal C has her time in the Hamptons, too. CASH HAMPTONS: SEN. Hillary Clinton is barnstorming the Hamptons this weekend to fill her campaign coffers with the help of her hubby, Bill. Last night, Michael Recanati co-hosted a dinner in East Hampton with Ira Statfeld at $4,200 per head, the max under federal law. Today's brunch thrown by Lisa Perry in Sag Harbor costs $2,000. Tonight, the ex-president joins Hillary at the East Hampton home of Michele and Bill Nuti, where Jon Bon Jovi will perform. Tickets are $300, but $1,000 will get you a backstage pass. If some of these names don't ring a bell, there's an explanation. As one Dem said, "Every time you think she's hit up everybody she could find, she comes up with new people."
