It's a busy day here on the celebrity beat. Kathy told you about yakking with the adorable Queer Eye guys. I want them to come and make me over.  But I just got off the phone with Frances O'Connor, who is filming Cashmere Mafia, the ABC show that will premiere on Nov. 27. It's from the creator of Sex and the City and it's styled by Patricia Field, who did all the costumes on SATC, so it will be compared to SATC no matter that it is different in some fundamental ways. O'Connor, who plays an investment banker, moved from London to NYC to be in the show that she hopes will go for at least a full season. She's having fun living in New York, with her boyfriend, a Scot actor, and their son. "It's great to have the opportunity to come and live in New York. Who wouldn't jump at it?" she says in her Nicole Kidman-like Australian accent. You won't hear that in the show, though. She's learning to speak American.
