A Very Beverly Hills Problem: Lost Baby Swan

Sometimes it's hard being rich, especially when one of your baby swans disappears.
Lisa Vanderpump of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Dancing With the Stars fame took to Twitter over the holidays to rant on what she called her "high class problem." Over a series of tweets, she asked the Twitterverse to send back her beloved swan, told her fans to not mistake it for a turkey, and then pondered if it had taken off to the Bel-Air Hotel. Hey, this bird most likely has high-class taste too.
We hope that you'll read all of these tweets in her British accent.
I know it's what some people may call "a high class problem" however,1 of my baby swans took off yesterday,if anyone in Bh sees errant swan
