- Celebrity Travel: Dionne Robbed at Rome Hotel
-
As we first read on Luxist (Dionne Warwick Loses Her Jewels in Italy), five-time Grammy award-winning singer Dionne Warwick, who, for some reason, I remember best for hosting Solid Gold in 1985, was the victim of theft on Monday at the five-star Hotel de Russie in Rome. Among the missing items, said to total more than $100,000, were two rings, a necklace, a watch and a pair of earrings Warwick left sitting on her room’s bedside table. Interestingly enough, this celebrity robbery was not the first the room (or the hotel) has seen. In a bizarre coincidence, Cameron Diaz reportedly dealt with her own set of robbers while she was bunking in the very same room seven years ago. If you were to stay at the Hotel de Russie, we would suggest warding off would-be thieves by booking the hotel’s Do Not Disturb package, which includes overnight accommodations for two, a Champagne breakfast served in the room, a bottle of Prosecco, a box of chocolates and an in-room couple’s massage. Rates start at 975 Euro per night for a studio room and go quite a ways up from there. A two-night minimum stay is required for the package. Oh, and we also suggest using the in-room safe.
