The article does not establish notability of the subject - as far as I'm aware being a Socialite-Journalist isn't sufficient. I've checked a few of the (dozens of) external links and they appear to be newspaper/blog reports written by HR - not about HR. The references are all offline, but their titles do not inspire confidence that they establish notability of this person. DexDor (talk) 19:48, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
