<p> Teenagers are prone to identity crises, but no one has more
reason to be confused than KIMBERLY MAYS, who was switched with
another baby at birth. Just seven months ago, the 15-year-old
begged a Sarasota, Florida, judge not to return her to her biological
parents, Ernest and Regina Twigg. "I hate the Twiggs," she said.
Last week Mays, described by her lawyer as having "personal
difficulties," left her father Robert Mays, entered a youth
shelter and finally went to stay with the Twiggs. "Mom," she
said to Regina Twigg, "I love you and I want to come home."

<p>A Grownup Macaulay
</p>
<p> There is a seductively boyish mischievousness to HUGH GRANT
that one suspects he's worked hard to suppress of late. In three
new films, all out this month, Grant plays a priggish minister
(Sirens), a diffident commitment-phobe (Four Weddings and a
Funeral) and an archetypically repressed British husband (Bitter
Moon). Although an admitted John Hughes fan, Grant delighted
in working with Bitter Moon director Roman Polanski. "You start
at noon, you have a big boozy lunch, and then you'll find his
wife--bored on the set--taking off her shirt. It's not like
working on a Merchant-Ivory film."

<p>SEEN & HEARD
</p>
<p> Having earned $46 million during the past two years, David Copperfield
is ready to immerse himself in the role of good provider. Dressing
her hand with a very nonillusory bauble, the magician proposed
to girlfriend Claudia Schiffer on a remote Caribbean island.
Abracadabra, she accepted.
</p>
<p> Axl Rose may be even more troubled than he seems. A suit filed
by his ex-wife Erin Everly claims that Rose not only beat her
repeatedly but is currently getting exorcised because he fears
he's possessed. Rose's psychotherapist allegedly told Everly
that her actions in a past life made Rose violent in this life.
</p>
<p> It's an unsettling prospect: the singer of Half-Breed taking
on, say, Embraceable You. Yes, Cher is contributing to an all-Gershwin
album. She's got rhythm, all right, but please, let's call the
whole thing off.
</p>
<p>Time to Vogue
</p>
<p> Few sights could be more distracting than that of models wearing
edible Issey Miyake hats. And yet during the showing of the
fall collections in Paris, it was the cast of Robert Altman's
Pret a Porter that provided the real spectacle. Altman shot
footage for his fashion-world satire right at the shows, placing
his stars (many of them portraying reporters) on the front lines.
Players SALLY KELLERMAN, KIM BASINGER, LAUREN BACALL and RUPERT
EVERETT took in Christian Dior's wares. "What's going on is
a real confusion of the movie and reality," noted Lyle Lovett,
also in the film. "What's real and what's not? It makes a statement
about fashion."
