Rachida Dati Is Back


For those of you who are new to the site, you may not have noticed my obsession with Rachida Dati and the father of her child. You may not have noticed this obsession because she no longer gets photographed every week at the French cabinet meeting because she isn't in the French cabinet any longer. It's funny, but they don't really even take photos of the members anymore now that she has gone.

Anyway, to add more juice to this story, it seems that Rachida's brother, who is a twice convicted drug trafficker has finished writing a tell all book which is scheduled to be published this fall. Oh, and when he says he is going to tell all, it includes the father of the baby. My current guesses are the French President or his son. Oh, or Salma Hayek's baby daddy.

Rachida, who was recently voted the most popular woman in France is trying to halt the publication of the book because she promised the father he would never be revealed. To go to these extremes to block the name of the father means that he must be someone really, really important to the French. Oh, like David Hasselhoff. No, he is popular in Germany. Jerry Lewis?

  1. Whoever the baby daddy is, he should have thought about the possible outcome before he jumped in bed with her. She may have made the promise not to reveal his identity, but obviously her brother knows, and he made no such promise.

  2. oooooooh, juicy! the brother sounds like the french version of christopher ciccone! i so hope he gets to publish the book, even if he has to do it outside the country.

  4. I don't think Ben A. is Rachida's type.

    It's gotta be the French Prez, it's just gotta be.

  5. I though Ben was EVERYONE'S type--hence him fitting into every blind out there.

  7. Carla Bruni's gonna be pissed!

    "Following a New Year's Eve dinner at the Elysée, Mrs Bruni-Sarkozy and Miss Dati were walking in the palace's private apartments when the then Miss Bruni is said to have pointed at Mr Sarkozy's bed and said: 'You'd have loved to occupy it, wouldn't you?'"

  8. As french I feel a bit insulted by your last sentence... ahahaha David Hasselhoff, yeah off course.

    And I don't think that our president is the father of her baby, I mean he's not attractive and his wife is beautiful, much more than RD.

    and the fact that she didn't want to give the name means that it could be someone really really important, but why for the french ? maybe it's someone really important in an other country or maybe it was a FIV and she didn't want people to know.

  9. Dati is still in the cabinet but she's on her way out. She's assured to be elected in the European Parliament in June and she was asked to hold her seat there, ie to leave her ministery. Actually, she's in disgrace and her main task as a minister is over (be the front for a reform of tribunals that had been written before she was involved)

    You don't get many more photos because her move to go back to the cabinet a few days after giving birth proved unpopular and her craving for jewels and luxury doesn't goes very well with the current economic crisis. So she's currently keeping a low profile. She was last week on the cover of a big news magazine but the lead was "Ghosts: are there still ministers in the government?"

    lol@little corn teeth. I don't like Ben A. at all, always thought he was a wimp of a man.

    Ent, if you end up reading the book do tell who the father is. It would be interesting to know.

  13. The father is François Sarkozy, young brother of the president and married to someone else. He spend Christmas eve with Dati and their child.
    As for Dati, the most popular member of the cabinet?!! She is the most UNpopular. The most popular one is currently Rama Yade. You might want to google her. She has class AND a brain (contrary to Dati who has neither)

  14. Guess its a matter of opinion, Bruni looks like a porcupine IMO

    And she was out of line with her statement in regards to the bed(first lady?)

    I thought Pinault struck again?

    Oops, turned out that it wasn't his(Maury) so thats why Salma finally agreed to marry him...She could forgive all the other ones, but not Dati's...

    Personally, I like Dati..she is gorgeous SMART and she does as she pleases..Men do the same, yet they aren't booted out of anywhere..Double standards..SMH
