Kate Moss Gets Sir Philip Green to Buy Her Nanny’s Xmas Presents

Times are tough, and with Christmas around the corner and all the expenses of gifts/turkeys/crackers full of cocaine adding up, celebs like Kate Moss are hit harder than most. So you’ve got to improvise, yeah?!

And this week, when Moss was trying to work out what to buy her child’s nanny Mary Davidson, she struck on an ingenious plan: take her to Topshop (where Moss designs clothes) and let her rob the store blind.

As the Daily Express reported from a fellow shopper: “Mary was shy and bewildered at first but soon got into the swing as Kate encouraged her. She came away with more than £3,000 of clothes, and shoppers found their jaws dropping as they bumped into Kate and she was shouting, ‘Come on girls, buy, buy, buy!’”

£3000? What about the bill? Oh, yes (as Vogue reports)…

“[H]er generosity so impressed Topshop boss Sir Philip Green that he reportedly decided to pick up the bill – which ran into thousands.”

Always good to have a billionaire handy when you need one. Thanks sugar daddy!
