George Clooney’s British ex-girlfriend Lisa Snowden is trying to make a name for herself in the U.S. — taking a job as host of VH1’s new “Trading Spaces”-esque show, “Rock the House” — but there are certain things she won’t do for fame or glory.
For money, on the other hand …
Snowden says she’d be willing to doff her duds for Playboy only if the magazine agrees to pay her a million bucks. And so far, the magazine’s only been willing to cough up a couple of hundred grand for photos of her in her birthday suit.
“It’s not exactly my dream job,” Snowden says of taking it off for the bunny-loving men’s magazine, in an interview in the upcoming issue of Details, “but I would do it.”
If the price was right.
“They offered twice,” she says, “but the money was total crap” — about $230,000.
Geez, wonder how much she charged Clooney …

Not to mention a reality TV show
And they said it wouldn’t last …
David Gest has reportedly celebrated his seven-month wedding anniversary with Liza Minnelli by giving his bride a host of lavish gifts.
According to Peoplenews.com, Gest gave Liza two pairs of designer earrings, a $100,000 aquamarine and diamond necklace, and a ruby cross.
That last one could come in handy to ward him off at night.
