Norah
Jones Spends Big on Friends
2/12/08
Singer Norah Jones shuns the extravagances her wealthy lifestyle
affords her - preferring instead to spend her money on hard-up pals.
The Come Away With Me star can remember what it was like to be a
struggling performer, so she makes her artist friends' lives easier by
treating them to gourmet dinners and luxury holidays.
Jones says, "I don't really have a major extravagance. I do get
excited when I take my friends for a nice dinner - because most of them
are still struggling artists, and don't have much money.
"I also took them on holiday to Costa Rica and that was great.
It's nice to be able to do things like that."
