Le Chateau De Versailles

Craig Ferguson takes 'Late Late Show' to Paris

"We don't have a studio, we don't have any lighting, but that never stopped us in America and it's not going to stop us here!" said Ferguson while filming in front the Eiffel Tower, reports CBS. Is that a card table Ferguson's using instead of a desk?

Kristen Bell, Eddie Izzard, Jean Reno and Jean-Michel Cousteau will all appear on the show, as well as Christian Louboutin, the luxury shoe designer whose heels have become a staple for celebs.

Aventures à Paris.: Le Chateau de Versailles

Si vous êtes assez chanceux d'avoir vécu à Paris comme un jeune homme, alors où que vous alliez pour le reste de votre vie, il reste avec vous, car Paris est une fête.” En Englais: “If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast." Ernest Hemmingway King Louis the XIV is the biggest narcisist I have ever heard of. He had meals with 35 courses, numerous mistresses, and he had balls every saturday evening. Every person of nobility was required to attend, and if they didn't, they were "black listed." During the evening, if the king so much as laid eyes on a woman in attendance, she was his for the evening. If she was married, her husband considered it an honor that the king chose his wife. When his advisors inquired of him on matters of the state, his response was simply, "I am the state." However, in spite of his obsession with himself, he created a palace that has not been replicated to its degree of grandeur. I have always been fascinated with the diversity of other countries and dreamed of going to distant lands to delve into their historical and cultural impacts. When I graduated from beauty school, my sister and I took a short trip to Europe, and I fell in love with Paris. A weekend in Paris was not enough; I want to fully embrace the culture and experience life there. I got tired of dreaming. I am going to Paris for the summer to make this lifelong dream a reality.
