NYC’s newest celebrity doesn’t go by any clever moniker, isn’t the progeny of a reality show family nor does he have his own posse of press and talent agents. Only 16 years young and weighing in at a svelte 17 lbs., meet heart throb Henry – the Tortoise!
He’s a social man about town and is especially fond of the ladies. It all started with a post on Craigslist by Henry’s owner, seeking a loving companion to take him on his much-coveted walks thru Central Park. The responses came pouring in from around the world and with it, major media attention. Henry has now become an astute player in the ‘ole paparazzi game. Recently spotted at a twilight picnic in the park in his honor, no amount of flashbulbs or attention could keep this stud muffin from enjoying the spoils of his new-found fame. Next time you happen to be strolling through the park and do a double take upon seeing what looks to be a huge shell in a stroller, more than likely you’ve just had a celebrity (tortoise) spotting!
