Janet Charlton's Hollywood, Celebrity Gossip and Rumors

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Another whirlwind political week with the news that President Joe Biden was ending his campaign and all but anointed his successor, Vice President Kamala Harris. We are hearing that Hollywood was starting to abandon Joe after that scathing op-ed by George Clooney, but is now gearing up for the biggest star studded fundraiser EVER, to boost Kamala’s financial war chest. The details are still being sorted out, but according to my source it’s going to rival with Academy Awards with A-listers willing to contribute a minimum of $100,000 for an invite. We will share more details as we hear them.

Speaking of Joe Biden, now that he’s bowing out of the race and set to retire in January once his presidency is over, we just heard he’s planning a major change. Although Joe has called Delaware his home for most of his life, he wants to be closer to his California based son Hunter, so he’s already working with a top LA based realtor looking at suitable homes in the LA area. My source says that he wants to be on or near a beach and security is one of the concerns so he’s looking at gated waterfront properties from Orange County up through Santa Barbara.

Jennifer Aniston made headlines after she took to social media in a heartfelt post about women who can’t bear children after misogynistic comments from vice presidential candidate JD Vance recently resurfaced. Just heard from a well placed source that Jen, who usually stays away from the nastiness of politics, is now going all in for Kamala Harris and will soon appear alongside her at a political rally focusing on women’s reproductive rights.

Speaking of JD Vance, there are some rumblings that Donald Trump regrets listing to his son, Don Junior, who was pushing for Vance to be selected as the running mate. Our spot-on political source reports that there’s a plan being talked about to have Vance bow out of the campaign and claim a personal family matter is the reason. My source insists that Trump completely regrets choosing Vance, but if he decides not to replace him, you can expect to hear a lot less of JD on the campaign trial. As my source put it, Trump didn’t trust his instincts and was swayed by his son and now has serious second thoughts.

Enough politics -back to entertainment. Celine Dion made headlines for two things – performing at the Olympics and signing up for a residency at Resorts World in Las Vegas. What DIDN’T come out though, is what we just heard. She’s also recording a new album which will drop around the same time she kicks off her residency in Sin City.

And finally, as we exclusively reported, Leah Remini finally sold her Studio City, California home and we just heard she’s now looking for a new home in the LA Valley, but wants one in a guard gated community. Our source explains that Leah is still be hounded by her former pals in Scientology so that’s why she’s hypersensitive to make sure her new home has ample armed security guards.

Brad Pitt Wine

BRAD PITT WANTS MORE WINE IN HIS LIFE

Just because Brad Pitt has an ongoing lawsuit over what he claims was an inappropriate sale of his winery Miraval, doesn’t mean he’s out of the wine industry. Brad is suing his ex-wife, Angelina Jolie, claiming she breached their agreement by selling her shares in the winery to a Russian oligarch. According to my source, Brad realizes he might not prevail and could never gain control of the French winery, so he’s now quietly looking at available wineries in Napa, California. Brad is doing all of his shopping anonymously because he fears his celebrity status might cause some sellers to ask for more money. Most of the wineries he’s looked at are off-market, and he tours them via Zoom. Once he finds something he likes, he’s telling friends he’ll put on a disguise and check it out in person.

Manicure Marc Jacobs Self-indulgence

MARC JACOBS HAS A SERIOUS INDULGENCE

Fashion designer Marc Jacobs wants MEN to pay more attention to their nails. He’s been sporting these 5 inch bejewelled nails since the Met Gala and thoroughly enjoys flipping them about in public. His custom nails take 6-7 hours of sitting time, START at around $900 per manicure, and go up to thousands of dollars. We can’t help but wonder how they affect his everyday life. Can he button a shirt and tie a necktie? We’d love to see him eat a hamburger…

Charity Fashion Lauren Sanchez

LAUREN SANCHEZ SELLS HER USED COTHING ONLINE

Old habits die hard, just ask soon-to-be billionaire Lauren Sanchez. Before she found fame and fortune as Jeff Bezos’ fiancé, Lauren was a news anchor and worked the red carpet as a correspondent for Extra. Although successful, money was still an issue for working girl Lauren, especially since her jobs required her to dress up every day and didn’t supply her a wardrobe. Ever-practical Lauren couldn’t repeat her outfits so she sold them online and even though money will likely never be an issue for her again, she’s STILL selling her clothes through various online consignment sites. Don’t worry though, Lauren realizes how fortunate she is to be marrying one of the wealthiest men in the world, so she donates all proceeds from her used clothes to various charities benefiting women, minorities and animals.

Endorsement Kamala Harris Taylor Swift

KAMALA HARRIS HAS A SECRET STRATEGY

As Democrats quickly line up to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for president, the world’s biggest and arguably most influential endorsement is being drafted. Behind very very very closed doors, talks are underway to incorporate megastar Taylor Swift into Kamala’s campaign. Taylor isn’t set to wrap up her European tour until early October and once she returns to the United States the plan is for her to issue an endorsement of Kamala and appear alongside her at a rally. Keep in mind this is very inside information and subject to change as Taylor might announce her endorsement much sooner than October, but for now THAT’S the plan.

And Just Like That John Corbett Sarah Jessica Parker

SARAH JESSICA PARKER: THE HEIGHT OF FASHION

With Mr Big out of the picture on And Just Like That, Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) dug up her favorite old boyfriend Aiden (John Corbett) and it looks like they are up to SOMETHING. John is quite tall (6’5″) and Sarah Jessica Parker is only 5’3,” so she makes a habit of wearing high heels when they’re together. (John is accustomed to petite women. His wife Bo Derek is 5’3″ and after 22 years together, they are still going strong.) Will Carrie live happily ever after with this man?

Apple Martin Chanel Chris Martin Gwyneth Paltrow

APPLE MARTIN: SOME PEOPLE HAVE ALL THE LUCK

Apple Martin, 20, is set to become the next face of Chanel, and the late designer, Karl Lagerfeld, made that prediction when Apple was just four years old. Apple, the daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin, has been compared to a young Bridget Bardot. Last year, Apple sat front row at one of the Chanel shows in Paris, but now she’s set to walk the runway and appear in some of their ads. It’s not a done deal yet, as the final negotiations are being ironed out, but it’s likely to happen before the end of the year.

Canceled Ellen DeGeneres Kris Jenner

CAN KRIS JENNER SOLVE ELLEN DEGENERES’S PROBLEMS?

Well, this is unexpected. Ellen DeGeneres is struggling to rebuild her career and her current cross country stand-up comedy tour, (which we were the first to reveal) isn’t as successful as she hoped. For the most part, Ellen is still canceled in Hollywood due to her alleged bad behavior on the set of her now defunct talk show. Ellen has decided to shake up her management team, and she recently partnered up with her good friend and successful “momager” Kris Jenner. Ellen and Kris are quite close and spend a great deal of time together, but now Ellen has retained Kris to help resuscitate her career. According to my source, Kris is now brainstorming on Ellen‘s big comeback.

Joe Biden Kamala Harris We Told Ya So! We Told You First!

WE TOLD YA SO! THIS WAS A BIG ONE!

JCH READERS KNEW FIRST! While the world speculated on whether President Joe Biden would end his campaign – WE TOLD YOU ON FRIDAY that it was a done deal, and that the biggest donors to the Democratic Party were informed of this days earlier during a top secret phone call. Our well placed source came through again! Biden just dropped out of the race “before the end of July” as we reported. And gracefully, we might add. He immediately pitched all his support behind Kamala Harris and we could not be happier. The idea of Kamala Harris in office sounds like a dream come true…

Ashley Hamilton Cancer Donald Trump Foundation Joe Biden Lift Olympics Plastic Surgery Shannen Doherty Shoes! Taylor Swift

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

It’s been a very busy week in the political world with the biggest story being the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump – here’s what we know. There was a reason that Donald was heard screaming for his SHOES as the secret service carried him away from the podium moments after the shooting. He wears LIFTS in his shoes to appear taller, and vain Donald didn’t want the press to photograph his shoes with the special inserts in them!

Speaking of Donald, as he accepted the Republican nomination for president on Thursday, he wore a bandage over his ear that was grazed by that bullet and now we just heard that he’s scheduled to undergo minor reconstructive plastic surgery to replace the cartilage that was blown away. Donald has turned to a top Beverly Hills plastic surgeon and is planning to have the surgery within the next few weeks. My source says that he could have gotten in earlier, but Donald enjoys the image of himself with the bandage as he feels it makes him appear stoic and macho.

The other big news is the continued backlash against President Joe Biden’s campaign and we just heard this scoop. The biggest Democratic donors were recently informed via a secure conference call that Biden will NOT be the nominee and to expect an announcement before the end of July. This isn’t speculation -it’s a done deal- and the powers that be are currently drafting a graceful way for Biden to bow out.

The Olympics are all over the news since they’re starting on July 27, and my source says that last minute plans are currently underway to get Taylor Swift to perform at either the opening or closing ceremony. Seems that ticket sales to the events haven’t been as great as expected, so they’re hopeful that an appearance by Taylor could somehow change that. She hasn’t signed on yet, as there are a lot of moving parts to navigate, but expect a big announcement if it all works out as the Olympic committee hopes.

Finally, a sad week for celebrity deaths, including Dr. Ruth, Bob Newhart and Shannen Doherty. Speaking of Shannen, her former husband, the handsome Ashley Hamilton just revealed his own cancer diagnosis during a statement he released to the press on her passing. We just heard this though – Ashley is planning to launch a cancer foundation in Shannen’s memory and raise awareness of the disease and hopefully raise funds in the process. He’s leaning on his stepfather, the wealthy but notoriously frugal Rod Stewart to kick things off with a large donation. We will keep you posted if Rod funds the endeavor.
