Irvine goes to Hollywood

Eddie Irvine enjoys a film star lifestyle and some of his opinions are as bizarre as those expressed by some of Hollywood's finest - and now finally the garrulous Ulsterman and the Hollywood glitterati have collided with Jaguar's "Tribute to Style" on Rodeo Drive.

The event was never going to attract the top names but those present included Tom Arnold, astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Rosanna Arquette, Harry Hamlin, Rachel Roberts, David Schwimmer, Tori Spelling and Patrick Swayze who attended an event to raise money for the Entertainment Industry Foundation's National Arts Education Initiative.

The star of the show was the Jaguar XKR convertible.

Since its inception in 1996, Jaguar's Tribute to Style has raised nearly $3 million for a variety of inner city and arts education organizations.
