Janet Charlton's HOLLYWOOD

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Back in the 1978, Christina Crawford’s semi-autobiography Mommy Dearest, about her  abusive adoptive mother, actress Joan Crawford, was such a page turner that it become a 1981 hit movie starring Faye Dunaway.  Well kiddos, get ready for Stepfather Dearest, and this will make Mommy Dearest seem like a Disney movie!  Our C list stud muffin hasn’t had much of a career since the late 1990s, but he DOES have a famous last name, and a mega famous onetime stepdad.  Money is tight these days, so he’s writing a no-holds barred tell all, that will cause ripples in Hollywood and worldwide.  His childhood was horrific and he suffered emotional and physical abuse at the hands of his mom’s  hubby.  One of the most shocking incidents was when the stepdad drew a swastika on our guys forehead and made him wear it for a week! The stepdad is still very rich and famous, so there’s a strong possibility he will buy the rights to the book so it will never see the light of day.

GUESS WHO!!!

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

This former A plus list, but now solid B list,  performer beat the odds by staying married for years to her less successful but cute husband.  They’re still happily married and there’s a reason – they’re now secretly involved in a throuple and share their bedroom with another female partner!  Their youngish kids are old enough not to need a live in nanny so when people question who she is, their female partner plays the part of a live in personal assistant – but she’s doing all of her work in the bedroom.  There’s no jealousy at all, since our guy is living his fantasy of being with two women at the same time, and our gal gets to satisfy her long rumored, but never acknowledged bisexuality.  Of course they have rules, like they can’t have any alone time with their third partner, but aside from that, it’s what keeping their marriage intact.
GUESS WHO!!

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Our gal has never been in a better place – she has mega fame, a vast fortune, countless opportunities, and  she looks better than she’s looked in years, thanks to some well crafted plastic surgery.  Her life is borderline perfect except for one thing – she is sick of her longtime partner and is doing everything in her power to get HIM to dump HER, so she won’t have to pay any spousal support.  She is the breadwinner in the relationship, and has been picking up the tab for him since they first got together. Although they’re not legally married, they’ve been together long enough that she would be legally obligated to continue supporting him in the high flying manner he’s grown accustomed to, if she were to break things off. Despite her wealth, she’s notoriously frugal so she’s determined to make him as miserable as possible so he dumps her and she won’t owe him a cent. So far, however,  it’s not working, and he’s not about to get off this gravy train.

HEATHER LOCKLEAR IS WILLING TO SPILL THE BEANS

Add Heather Locklear to the list of celebrities who now host podcasts.  Heather recently filmed a pilot podcast which she is shopping around to various outlets in hopes of securing a deal.  According to my source, Heather is teaming up with her longtime friend, Jillian Barberie, (above left) on the podcast which will focus on the perils actresses face growing old in Hollywood – but also cover their combined decades of  fun stories and anecdotes about  their younger, wilder years.  Both women had amazing  careers – and then they didn’t…

DENISE RICHARDS AND CHARLIE SHEEN: SPARKS?

We were surprised, but not totally shocked,  to learn that Denise Richards and her husband Aaron Phypers are headed for splitsville  – he filed on July 7, and listed the date of separation as July 4.  We can’t help but wonder if Denise’s ex-husband, Charlie Sheen, has anything to do with the split.  Our inside source reveals that Denise and Charlie have become close again after their nasty divorce,  and now that he’s sober their relationship is on solid ground.  We will keep everyone posted, but remember, these two crazy kids just MIGHT give their romance another chance.

ELON MUSK WANTS ROSIE O’DONNELL ON HIS SIDE

One again…politics makes strange bedfellows,  and this latest pairing could take the cake.  Just when we thought it was over, Elon Musk’s feud with Donald Trump is back with a vengeance – with Elon threatening to finance primary campaigns against ANY Congressman who voted for Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill.  In retaliation,  Trump is threatening to stop all government subsidies for Elon’s various businesses like solar power and electric vehicles.  And it keeps getting  weirder. Elon has now reached out to one of the people who seems to get under Trump’s skin more than most, Rosie O’Donnell!  As odd as it sounds, Elon wants to team up with Rosie and unite against Trump.  My well placed source reveals Rosie, while no fan of Elon, still feels he’s the lesser of two evils when compared to Trump, and she has NOT ruled out working with him in some capacity.

ORLANDO BLOOM IS SHOPPING FOR A BACHELOR PAD

Now that he’s back on the market, Orlando Bloom is in the market for a new place to hang his hat.  Orlando was living in Montecito, California, when he was shacking up with his baby mama, Katy Perry, but now that they’ve called it quits, he’s frantically looking for a bachelor pad in West Hollywood.  My source says that Montecito was the perfect place when Orlando planned on marrying Katy and settling down, but it’s far from perfect for a bachelor, with my source describing it as full of “families and old people.” Orlando wants to start over in a swanky house above Sunset Strip and has already begun his search.

DID JEFF BEZOS ARRANGE THE LAUREN SANCHEZ VOGUE COVER?

Let’s preface this.  This is gossip and may or may not be true so to avoid any legal repercussions we are stressing that the following is just something we HEARD but can’t confirm, so judge for yourself.  A very well placed source reveals that Lauren Sanchez Bezos’ surprising digital Vogue cover was no surprise at all.  The rumor going around Hollywood, and of course New York City, is that Lauren’s newlywed husband pulled MAJOR strings and made a deal (assumingely to spend a boatload of money on advertising in the magazine) to ensure that Lauren and her Dolce and Gabbana wedding dress made the cover.  Remember, we aren’t stating this as fact since the last thing we want is to irk one of the world’s wealthiest men, so take it with a grain of salt,  even if our source is impeccable…

RIHANNA’S SPECIAL MEMORIAL EVENT FOR HER LATE DAD

Rihanna is getting ready to bury her father, Ronald Fenty, in his native Barbados, and despite the fact that they had an occasionally rocky relationship,  money is no object and no expense is being spared.  The services are happening today, Sunday July 6, and to make sure everything was perfect, RiRi flew in her preferred vendors to the tropical island.  That includes a florist,  caterer, event planner, and even a mortician. (to oversee the process ) Rihanna realized her options were limited in Barbados, so she dropped hundreds of thousands of dollars to make sure everything was up to her standard.  This is in addition to the million dollar plus tab Rihanna paid to get him the best care at Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, since Ronald only had health  insurance for care in Barbados. She hinted to pals she might even perform her smash hit Umbrella, and dedicate it to her dad.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

The Diddy verdict was one of the biggest stories of the week as after a month-long Federal trial the jury acquitted him of the three most serious charges, and found him guilty on two lesser charges involving prostitution.  Although he avoided a potential life in prison sentence, Diddy is still facing 20 possible years behind bars which breaks down to 10 years for each conviction.  Here’s what we know.  While Diddy was relieved that he was acquitted of the most serious charges, he is getting ready to both appeal the conviction on technical grounds, and as we previously told you, he has friends reaching out to Donald Trump in hopes of getting pardoned.  My source says that Diddy still has some friends in high places – so don’t be too shocked if the pardon happens before a long drawn out appeal!

 

The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, was in the news when she spoke out about her roller coaster recovery after bowing out of a recent scheduled public appearance.  We just heard that Kate, who has remained tight lipped about her actual illness, is now making arrangements for a sit down interview with the BBC where she will reveal her exact diagnosis and prognosis.  While speaking so publicly about something so private is out of character for the Royal Family, my source says that Kate has been pushing for this,  but wanted the blessing of her notoriously private father-in-law, King Charles, before giving and interview and he finally gave his permission.

 

Khloe Kardashian made some headlines when she revealed the litany of plastic surgery procedures she’s gone under since bursting onto the spotlight years ago.  Khloe not only posted her procedures, but also tagged the doctors and medical professionals who administered them.  We know this.  Despite the seemingly long list, a well placed source says that Khloe left OUT a few surgical procedures from a top Beverly Hills physician that is a go to doc for her family.  Since medical procedures are confidential,  all we will say is that she allegedly had some work done below the belt, so use your imagination.

 

Wendy Williams was seen out and about this week and we just heard this update about her ongoing legal battle to get her conservatorship removed.  Lately, Wendy has been granted more and more freedom which is why she was seen having dinner with friends in New York City. Wendy is still pursuing her legal options, but for the time being she doesn’t want to rock the boat too much – since she has been granted more freedoms.  Long story short, we heard that these newfound freedoms are part of a trial run and if Wendy continues to do well,  she might get her wish and have the conservatorship removed.

 

Yikes!  The boys were at it again with Elon Musk going hard against Donald Trump’s big beautiful bill and Trump threatening to look into DEPORTING Elon.  Here’s what we know.  Behind very closed doors, Elon has been quietly reaching out to powerful DEMOCRATS and is offering to finance a coalition to IMPEACH Trump!  Elon is vowing to donate MILLIONS if he can persuade enough politicians to launch a recall campaign.

 

Bryan Kohberger made unexpected news when he changed his not guilty plea to guilty, admitting to the murder of four University of Idaho students. Once the trial judge denied his lawyers’ request to point the finger at other potential suspects, it became apparent his legal options were limited, and that’s what likely prompted the guilty plea. Here’s what we know.  Hollywood is already scrambling to secure the rights to the case and it’s very likely to happen since all monies paid to Bryan for his story will automatically go to the victims families.  We hear Glee and American Crime Story producer Ryan Murphy is already contemplating securing the rights.

 

The dust has finally settled on wedding of the decade, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s Venetian nuptials and we know this.  Because of the expected backlash, many of the guests who RSVP’D yes backed out at the last minute – which is the REAL reason Lauren’s gal pal, Eva Longoria, skipped the event, claiming she had a work conflict for her CNN series on Spain.  That’s why some last minute guests were added. Long story short, the attendees who DID show up were a far cry from some of the A-listers who were committed to attend but decided to beg off.
