Celebrity Travel Watch Special Edition: Paris Hilton Did It HereIt’s a spectacular day here at Celebrity Travel Watch! I’ve been waiting for years for someone to break the story about where celebrities like to have sex when they’re on the road, and, hot damn, BlackBook magazine has done it. The four-page “celebrity guide to the best hotels for sex” features a plethora of boldface names: Hilton! Pitt! Jolie! Depp! Led Zeppelin! Alyssa Shelasky’s story isn’t quite “Hammer of the Gods,” but she sure knows her way around the places where celebrities get down. Among the hotels featured: Miami’s Raleigh Hotel (Paris Hilton and Christina Aguilera “got randy with each other” on the rooftop), L.A.’s Chateau Marmont ("Scarlett Johansson gave Benicio Del Toro a rise in the hotel’s main elevator"), and San Francisco’s Phoenix Hotel ("You can feel sex in the air,” says Scissor Sister Del Marquis). The piece is in two parts, here and here. Don’t miss it! The story is part of BlackBook’s “Travel and the Romantic Ideal” issue, which also includes Baghdad blogger Salam Pax’s piece about his visit to Las Vegas and Emma Forrest’s reminiscence about her time on the road with the Wu Tang Clan. --Theodore Fez, who edits World Hum’s Celebrity Travel Watch, is an elusive, shadowy figure who files occasional reports.
