Moss pays lip(s) service

London - A charity for Palestinian refugee children is £60 000 better off after a kiss between Kate Moss and Jemima Khan, a London newspaper reports.
Fashion retail tycoon Philip Green fronted up the money at Monday's auction in the exclusive Annabel's club which raised more than £200 000 for the Hoping Foundation.
He was to get a kiss from Moss for his money, but when he declined - in deference to wife Tina - the supermodel puckered up instead with Khan, the Evening Standard newspaper reported on Tuesday.
"We thought it was going to be a kiss on the cheek," one "eyewitness" was quoted as saying.
"It lasted just over 60 seconds.
"A few people were shocked but everyone was laughing after."
Khan, 32, ex-wife of cricketer Imran Khan, is going out with Hollywood star Hugh Grant, himself the object of intense bidding when a guest paid £12 000 to play golf with him, with Khan as the caddy.
Hard-partying Moss, also 32, is enjoying a career rebound after she was dumped by the likes of H and M, Chanel and Burberry last year after a London tabloid published of pictures of her apparently taking cocaine.
