| Lindsay Lohan vacates her “free” room at the Chateau Marmont: why? Posted: 09 Mar 2012 08:49 AM PST
Here's something interesting – two days ago, Radar reported that Lindsay Lohan and Terry Richardson had engaged in some kind of gross, sexual crack-shenanigans and that LL desperately wanted to be Terry's girlfriend, but he was all, "Nope." The interesting part? Steve Honig hasn't said anything. Gossip Cop hasn't been issued a pissy, cracked-out denial. Not even Terry Richardson has said anything about it. Which means… it probably happened? Gross. Oh, and Radar published this story yesterday – getting to know "Lindsay Lohan's Hookup, Terry Richardson." Ugh. When CB and I were talking about the Terry Richardson-Lohan story, she theorized that Richardson was the "friend" who comp'd Lindsay's room at the Marmont. The Cracken moved back into the Marmont a few months ago, after vacating her Venice Beach crack den. Radar claimed that she was staying at the Marmont free of charge because an "artist friend" kept a room at the Marmont full-time, and the friend was letting Lohan stay there. Let that simmer – did Lohan trade sexual favors for a hotel room? Whatever happened and whoever LL was doing to get a free room, the arrangement seems to be over – Radar now reports that Lohan has packed her bags and quietly vacated the Marmont:
[From Radar] This definitely spices up the theory that Uncle Terry was paying her bills. My guess – Uncle Terry stopped paying and he ordered LL out of his hotel suite when the Cracken predictably went psycho and started calling him endlessly, crack-squawking about how she is his girlfriend now. As for Lohan's "new residence" – if it's not a crack den already, it will be soon. And then she'll be back at the Marmont in no time. Probably with the help of another john's largesse. UPDATE: Oh, and the Cracken switched out her busted blonde Barbie wig for a ginger one. You can see the photo here.

| Dennis Quaid’s third wife, Kimberly Buffington, files for divorce Posted: 09 Mar 2012 08:47 AM PST
Holy crap. This shocked me – Dennis Quaid's third wife, Kimberly Buffington (no joke, that's her real name) just filed for divorce. Dennis and Kimberly were married in 2004, just a few years after his marriage to Meg Ryan ended in disaster (when Meg left him for Russell Crowe). Many assumed (I think correctly) that Kimberly was a trophy wife – someone nice and uncomplicated, without much of a career of her own. TMZ broke the story – you can read their report here.
[From People] My Spidey sense is tingling. Dennis Quaid used to have a major substance abuse problem, but it seemed like he was clean and sober for the past decade or so. But maybe not? Another thing: Buffington (for real) is asking for an equal split of all of the community property. No prenup? Is this a money grab? Or does Dennis have issues and Kimberly didn't feel like putting up with it anymore? This is very interesting.
These are some of the most recent photos we have of Quaid, from December and January. Does he look strung out?

| Chris O’Dowd: “You don’t have to f–k all the time to have a great relationship” Posted: 09 Mar 2012 08:23 AM PST
When I first saw Bridesmaids, I wasn't super-crazy in love with the film. I thought there were some funny parts, but it was a surprisingly bittersweet "comedy". I did, however, come out of the film completely in love with Irish actor Chris O'Dowd. O'Dowd played Kristen Wiig's love interest in the film, and Bridesmaids was many Americans' first introduction to O'Dowd, who is a popular comedian and actor in Ireland and the UK. Anyway, I've never devoted a post to Chris before, and he's got a new interview with Vulture which is cracking me up, so I thought, "Why not?" He's promoting his new film, Friends With Kids, in which he plays Maya Rudolph's love interest/husband. You can read the full Vulture interview here, and here are some highlights:
Wait, he's only 32??! Um, I thought he was older, I really did. What is it about Irishmen these days – they're damned attractive, but they always look older than their ages? First Michael Fassbender (who is only two years older than Chris), and now this. Have I just been warped by Hollywood pretty boys and how they always look much younger than their years? As for Chris's talk about babies and marriage and relationships – he's joking. For the most part. You know as soon as he marries his fiancée Dawn Porter, she'll be knocked up.
Oh, what's that? Chris O'Dowd and Michael Fassbender hung out together at the Irish Film Awards? BAM! Fassy’s not short, Chris is just really, really TALL.

| Cindy Crawford is different at the Caliche Rum launch: has she had work done? Posted: 09 Mar 2012 08:03 AM PST
Let’s start this story off with a rather embarrassing admission on my part. I adore Cindy Crawford to the point where I still do the arms segment from her first “Shape Your Body” workout video five times per week (although it’s now common knowledge that the legs segment should be avoided at all costs). Not that I actually watch the video — I’ve long since had that sh-t memorized. What I’m trying to say is that I’ve got a lot of goodwill and residual warmth for Cindy, who has always been a different breed of supermodel in that she has maintained a much more normal, toned body type that stands in stark contrast to the anorexic norm that is the modeling industry. For the most part, Cindy’s approach to aging has been realistic as well, and she seems to generally aim for a more dignified, less tweaked look. However and as you can see though from the above comparison, something has gone amiss, and Cindy seems to have indulged in a bit too much filler treatment before a recent public appearance. Her makeup is much different than her usual softer look as well, so that may account for part of the difference we’re seeing, but In Touch has spoken to an “expert” who claims to know what’s going on:
[From In Touch, print edition, March 19, 2012] Cindy is 46-years-old now, and she’s always made her living off her looks, so aging in the public eye must be extraordinarily difficult to manage. She must feel enormous pressure to look young, but like CB stated this morning, botox and fillers often have the unintended effect of making one look older, so it’s quite the tricky little paradox. I really do think that Cindy’s eye makeup is doing her no favors in these 2012 photos though, and one thing cannot be denied — her body still looks spectacular. |
| Brandi Glanville: ‘It’s hard to grow older, especially in this town. I’ll cop to Botox, fillers’ Posted: 09 Mar 2012 06:27 AM PST
In a new interview in Shape, Brandi explains that she has had Botox and fillers, and admits that it’s difficult to get older. I especially like what she says about how she’s in the dating pool with much younger women and feels the pressure to look younger. Here’s part of what Brandi said, thanks to Radar:
[From Radar] There’s more with Brandi at Shape.com, including Brandi’s diet and exercise plan. She just says she tries to achieve balance with her diet, and that she has had the same Pilates trainer for the past nine years, whom she sees three times a week. She also always takes the stairs instead of using elevators, which is great advice that I never seem to follow. As far as the Botox and fillers stuff, it’s nice that Brandi is admitting it and not trying to fudge like she hasn’t done it or has only had facials or something. I think Brandi should lay off for a while. Too much of that can result in a very unnatural look that doesn’t look “normal” outside of certain pockets of the US where everyone does it. She’s only 39 and the Botox has the effect of making women look older than they are. This week’s Enquirer has the news that Bruce Willis’ very pregnant wife, Emma Hemming, is considering joining RHOBH at the insistence of her good friend, Sylvester Stallone’s wife Jennifer Flavin. Hemming is also close friends with Brandi Glanville from their modeling days. The Enquirer quotes a source show says “Jen [Flavin] thinks the two of them together can ‘take over’ the show – and she loves that their hubbies are friends too.” Stallone is supposedly supportive while Bruce Willis is the hold out. Bruce is “wary because Emma is about to become a first-time mom. He’s also not thrilled about having a reality TV crew following them everywhere.” I can’t imagine Bruce greenlighting this in any way, and I hope it’s not true. If it is, it’s a surefire way to muck up his marriage.
Brandi is shown in August at a TAO beach house event. She’s also shown on 2/21/12 at a spray tan place. Credit: WENN.com |
| Kristen Stewart in leopard-print Louis Vuitton: adorable and much-improved? Posted: 09 Mar 2012 05:58 AM PST
I'm not sure why or how I missed these photos yesterday, because I was looking for them. These are photos from two nights ago, at the Paris Fashion Week event, "Louis Vuitton – Marc Jacobs: The Exhibition". I want to start with Kristen Stewart, because this is maybe the best she's ever looked, in my opinion. The thing with Kristen is that she's a pretty girl, but she messes up her "look" very often. Bad styling, bad hair, bad posture, lip-biting, eye-rolling, it all contributes to her fugging up a decent look. Even when she's wearing an evening gown and her hair and makeup are wonderful, she usually looks uncomfortable and grim. But here, at this event, in these photos – this is a great look for her. This is what she should be aiming for more often. It's young. It's rock n' roll. It's cute. She's not overly-styled. She's not uncomfortable (or, she's not any more uncomfortable than she usually is). This is her best Paris Fashion Week appearance!
This was also her last appearance at Paris Fashion Week – soon after this event, Kristen and Robert Pattinson flew to LA. But they still had this night! And Sparkles even came out for it too – here's a photo of Sparkles doing his "model-face" at the Marc Jacobs event.
You know who else looked surprisingly great? Sarah Jessica Parker! I know, I know. This decade-old Vuitton dress is "too young" for her, but I still think she looks awesome here.
And finally, let's talk about Marc Jacobs and his friend Peter Marino. I mean… sure. Jacobs likes the rough trade. I think that's been established. So… I'm not offended by this in the larger sense. Although I hate that Marc paired his pink dress with those fug shoes. THAT is what bugs me.

| Angelina Jolie appears at the “Women in the World” Summit, speaks about Somalia Posted: 09 Mar 2012 05:35 AM PST
Here are some photos of Angelina Jolie in NYC yesterday for the Women in the World Summit. Yesterday was International Women's Day, and many influential and powerful women gathered in at the Lincoln Center for this summit. Angelina was invited to speak about the refugee crisis in Somalia, illustrating the ongoing Somali catastrophe with a story about Dr. Hawa Abdi, who runs a medical/refugee camp, which has been overrun by militants (who have ties to al-Qaeda). Jolie was also invited to introduce Rwandan genocide survivor Sandra Uwiringiyimana. When Ms. Sandra Uwiringiyimana came to the stage, she thanked Angelina for "taking justice into her home and hands and doing incredible things." I'm including a partial video of Angelina speaking about Dr. Abdi's camp in Somalia, and you can see more videos here at The Daily Beast. As you can see, Angelina was wearing simple black pants, a silky-looking white blouse and a shiny white jacket for the event. I might be imagining things, but it seemed like The Leg managed to come out to play a little bit in some of these photos. The Leg was all, "I'm wearing pants, but you should still pay attention to me!" Speaking of The Great Leg Debacle (seriously, people are still talking about it), it's being reported by some tabloid sources that Angelina is still "horrified" by everything that went down at the Oscars, and Angelina has settled the blame squarely on her stylist, Jennifer Rade. A source tells a British tab, "She pays her stylist Jen a lot of money to pick things that will make her look drop-dead gorgeous, but she felt the dress swallowed her up and she had to stick her leg, or it looked like she was wearing a bin bag.” Whatever. I mean, I've been hoping that Angelina would fire Rade for a long, long time. But I doubt it's happening. Last story – The Hollywood Reporter has a story about Angelina's next project, Maleficent. That's where the Sleeping Beauty story is told through the eyes of the villainess, Maleficent, played by Angelina. Allegedly, the film is slated to begin production in June, and Elle Fanning is being considered for the part of Aurora/Sleeping Beauty. Those fairy-tale re-tellings are getting so popular these days – I'm hoping that this one is more Snow White & the Huntsman as opposed to that crappy-looking Mirror, Mirror.

| Alex Skarsgard & Charlize Theron might be hooking up in random gay bars Posted: 09 Mar 2012 04:41 AM PST
Ever since Kate Bosworth and Alex Skarsgard split up last year, Alex has maintained a much, much lower profile. I have no idea who or what he's been doing. I don't imagine he spends too many nights alone (he's got that Viking Sex God thing going on, after all), but it doesn't seem like Alex jumped into anything serious, or that he was even boning the same girl two nights in a row ("serious"). But that might be changing… The Enquirer reports that Alex might be quietly loved up with CHARLIZE!! Ol' Rose-Boobs Theron. Chelsea Handler's latest BFF. Charlize Theron, the Oscar winner who was boning Ryan Reynolds for a while last summer, just before Blake Lively got to him. THAT Charlize.
[From The Enquirer, print edition] While this is hot (anything involving Alex is hot, though), I'm also a little bit creeped out. You know why? They're too much alike. They even look alike. They're both crazy tall and all limbs, both with blonde hair and blue eyes, both in their mid-30s. It's brother-sister, right? There's something odd about the pairing. Still, on paper, it seems like a good match. They're close in age, she's got more stature but he's a rising star with a lot of heat around him. Now, nobody's marriage got 'wrecked but Alex was rumored to be getting "friendly" with Lizzie Olsen at the Spirit Awards and at the post-Oscars Vanity Fair party. It's not like Alex and Lizzie were coupled up officially though – maybe it was just a flirtation. Or maybe this Charlize thing is BS. Or maybe he's boning both of them. Also, I don't know what to think about the gay bar stuff. That kind of set off my radar/gaydar. Alex has had gay rumors for a while, so it's possible that Charlize has just found her latest gay BFF. Stacie (who scans the tabs here) suggested that he name them "CharSkar". I kind of like Charex, though.

| In Touch: Cameron Diaz, 39, “won’t read scripts if the character is 40″ Posted: 09 Mar 2012 04:30 AM PST
In past interviews, Cameron Diaz has always sounded so Zen about aging. Especially after her father died several years ago, Cameron always sounded content with her life, comfortable in her own skin, the perpetual sun-kissed, easy-going California Girl. And then Alex Rodriguez happened. And everything went to sh-t. Camy bulked up like a 'roid monster, she started acting like A-Rod was the best thing that ever happened to her, and her face… well, her face has never been the same. Sometimes she looks almost normal, but most of the time she looks jacked, waxy, Botoxy, and full of fillers. Oh, and post-A-Rod, she also got herself a set of bolt-ons, just like A-Rod always wanted. The whole Camy situation is a hot mess. I bring this up because this little In Touch story made me sad. I'm sad because I believe it. I'm sad because this is Hollywood – even Cameron Diaz, once the highest-paid woman in the industry, is being told (in so many words) that she's too old to play "The Girl". The problem is that Camy still thinks she's up for all of The Girl parts.
[From In Touch Weekly, print edition] I mentioned in another post that I recently saw Bad Teacher – I actually liked it. I liked her in that role of a 30-something, drunk, pothead teacher who is terrible at her job. Camy is a gifted comedienne, an underrated actress and for the past decade, she's gotten the first look at some of the best scripts. To give Cameron some credit – some of her career choices indicate that she is interested in branching out beyond comedies, beyond playing "The Girl". But given her relatively new "makeover" and what it says about her (insecure?), it feels like Camy is in for a rough couple of years as she makes the transition from lead actress to character actress. Speaking of, have you seen the trailers for What To Expect When You're Expecting? I'm embarrassed for everyone involved.

| Jessica Biel flashes engagement ring, fights with Justin Timberlake’s mom Posted: 09 Mar 2012 04:28 AM PST
Finally! Us Weekly got their hands on the FIRST photos of Jessica Biel's engagement ring – you can see it here (you have to scroll down a bit). It's funny how Us Weekly keeps getting all of the "breaking news" stories about Jessica Biel, isn't it? It's almost like this photo-op was arranged on purpose with an exclusive photo agency so the first pics would be guaranteed to only the biggest media outlets, like Us Weekly and People. Weird. As for the ring… CB and I think it's kind of fug. It looks like a decent-sized rock, maybe a princess cut, but the setting is just awful. CB called it "chunky". I complained about the "twirls". I wonder if Justin picked it out, or Jessica chose it for herself? Because I think if Biel was choosing, she would have gotten a simpler, cleaner setting – that seems to be her style. In other Biel-Timberlake news, The Enquirer reports this week that Jessica is fighting with her future mother-in-law. You knew that was going to happen – JT is a total mama's boy. I doubt he's ever stood up to his mom, and he certainly won't start on behalf of his bride.
[From The Enquirer, print edition] As if we needed more awful evidence that this marriage was doomed from the start. Granted, lots of brides fight with their future mother-in-laws. But I do think Justin's mommy issues will be yet another problem in this completely disastrous union. God, I'm actually starting to feel bad for Biel. And then I remember… this is all she's got going on right now. This is her career. Being in the tabloids, flashing her engagement ring, these stories – that's what's keeping her relevant. Which makes me doubt that she really does want a small, private wedding. Jessica probably wants to sell her wedding photos too – so maybe Justin doesn't want it?
