You'd think the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony would be safe from superficiality, but not when Will Smith is attending; or, more notably, his kids.
Hollywood's first family brought some much-needed glamour to Friday's Nobel Peace Prize concert in Norway, which award winner President Barack Obama was forced to miss due to his busy schedule.

She says, "Definitely the high-risk [guys]. I don't like cream puff, corny guys. Usually they are the nice guys, the ones that won't hurt you. They'll pull out the chair for you and the whole nine yards. Everything is perfect and boring. I like the risk, I like the edge. That's the thrill for me."

Answer: this 24-karat gold-plated Playstation 3, which comes complete with two matching controllers and a one-year warranty.
You might want to consider a second mortgage first, though: pricing starts at (yes, starts at) $4999. And we thought the PS3 was expensive when it launched at $500.
If that doesn't quite do it for you, the same supplier also offers a mighty snazzy… Continue
