HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Kristin Cavallari made headlines this past week when she revealed on a podcast that her blossoming May/December romance with TikTokker Mark Estes was over. Kristin explained that their age difference was the reason she ended things, but we are hearing that while the relationship might be over, the sex isn’t! Both Mark and Kristin gushed that their sexual chemistry was off the charts and now they are considering a “friends with benefits” arrangement. Kristin broke things up because she feared Mark still had some wild oats to sow, but they both claimed it was the best sex they ever had. I am hearing they’re still hooking up, but very much on the down low.

One of the biggest stories of the week was the Vice-Presidential debate, and although it seemed to be a draw, we did hear this interesting tidbit from our well placed political source. As civility reigned during the debate (since the uncouth Trump wasn’t there) once the mics were off and the debate ended, JD Vance and Tim Walz shared a few private moments. JD assured Tim that if he and Trump won the election, he would do everything to reign in Trump’s personality and offensive rhetoric. While Vance brown-noses Trump in public, in private we are hearing that he still considers him offensive and obnoxious.

A late breaking story this week was Garth Brooks getting sued by his former makeup artist – alleging rape and sexual assault. We just heard that his marriage to Trisha Yearwood has been more of a friendship than a romantic union for the past few years and they sleep in separate beds. My source says that Trisha is nonetheless livid over the lawsuit- especially since HER reputation as a happily married country star in now at stake.

Sean Diddy Combs was in the news gain this week for hiring more attorneys in hopes of getting granted bail. We just heard that if his appeal is denied, he’s going to come out as a BISEXUAL man so that he can be transferred to the gay section of the jail, which is considered FAR less dangerous. Even though he’s in protective custody, my source says that Sean would feel safer and have more privileges being housed with the gays.

The Menendez Brothers made the news for the Netflix series based on their life stories. (they’re the Beverly Hills brothers who were convicted of murdering their parents) We just heard that the LA District Attorney has agreed to review the case with new evidence and that Kim Kardashian has not only been working to help the brothers get a new trial, but she’s been secretly picking up some of the costs including filing fees. Since most of the attorneys are working on the case pro bono, Kim is PAYING for the things that aren’t free. She’s also hired a private investigator to get more proof that the brothers were molested by their dad.

And finally, Hacks star and recent Emmy winner Jean Smart was in the news for hosting the season opener of Saturday Night Live. Not only did she turn in a stellar performance, but we just heard that Jean gifted the SNL cast with mason jars of her famous homemade chili. My source says that Jean loves to cook, and chili is her specialty – she makes it in large batches and freezes it. Each cast member got a handwritten note from Jean along with a jar of the chili. Another reason to like her!

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

This popular Hollywood legend (singer and actress) is no stranger to plastic surgery nor does she hide her fondness for going under the knife. She’s always looked amazing given her age, but her latest romance with a younger man really got her scrutinizing her looks in a magnifying mirror. She bypassed her longtime plastic surgeon and underwent drastic procedures with a more aggressive doctor, and the results were horrific – which is why you haven’t seen much of her lately. She quickly had corrective surgery to undo some of the damage, and is finally ready for her close-up.

GUESS WHO!!!

OLIVIA CULPO’S FOOTBALL HUBBY CHRISTIAN Mc CAFFREY HAS A SIDE JOB

Former Miss Universe turned television personality and model, Olivia Culpo, and her newlywed husband, San Francisco 49er Christian McCaffrey recently dropped nearly $15 million to buy an estate in Studio City California from George Clooney. Although Christian inked a 2-year contract worth $24 million from the pro football team, Olivia isn’t taking any chances on their cash flow. She knows that in the rough and tumble world of football, a player could be sidelined with an injury and her husband is already suffering from Achilles tendonitis. According to my source, Olivia has introduced her handsome hubby to the world of modeling and he recently landed his first big gig with Movado watches. He’s also up for a GAP/Banana Republic campaign and more. Olivia is using her years of modeling experience and connections to help guide Christian and his blossoming side hustle.

NO MORE WASHINGTON, D.C. FOR MELANIA TRUMP

Now that she’s back living in Trump Tower, Melania Trump is staying put. Melania moved back to NYC to be with her son Barron who’s attending NYU, and according to an insider she told Donald that if he WINS the election she’s NOT moving back to Washington! And if he LOSES the election, she is NOT moving back to Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach. Melania flat out told Donald that HER life is in Manhattan, and wherever he winds up, she will make periodic visits, but not relocate. We can only assume that includes prison since HE IS a convicted felon.

PAMELA ANDERSON EMBRACES HER FRECKLES

Have to admit we did a HUGE double-take when we saw this photo of Pamela Anderson promoting her new film The Last Showgirl at the San Sebastian Film Festival in Spain. She is still embracing the “natural” look she started last year – with minimal or no makeup, simple unstyled hair, and loose clothing. The Gia Coppola directed film is about a Las Vegas dancer in her 50’s who changes her life when the show she danced in for 30 years closes. Certainly Pam must be showing off some of her assets in the movie, but in real life she’s continuing to enjoy her liberated self. A nice change – and more of an inspiration than Cardi B.

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE IS PULLING STRINGS

Now that he’s pled guilty to impaired driving, Justin Timberlake has his team working frantically behind-the-scenes to get him a waiver to visit Canada. According to my source, Justin was a shoe-in for an upcoming movie role in a romantic comedy, but the production is taking place in Vancouver, and Canada has very strict laws against allowing non-citizens to enter the country who’ve had DUIs. Exceptions can be made however, so Justin is working overtime to do what he needs to do, since he REALLY wants this role.

LANA DEL REY HAS A SECRET

There’s a REASON Lana Del Rey rushed to marry her boyfriend of less than a year, Jeremy Dufrene. The 39-year-old singer confided to a friend that she took a pregnancy test, and it came back positive! The singer and the alligator tour guide operator shocked the world with their sudden backyard wedding on the Louisiana Bayou, but my source says the pregnancy test was the sign Lana was looking for, and put her doubts to rest about marrying someone ten years older and from a completely different world. Lana is barely in her first trimester, so don’t expect any sort of announcement until she’s further along with the pregnancy.

KATY PERRY HAS THE LAST LAUGH

The Balenciaga show is always a big deal during Paris Fashion Week and Katy Perry showed up to support the luxe brand in what appears to be a luggage-inspired cocktail dress. Or is it a dress for traveling? The front features a strappy backpack and a series of fanny packs, duffel bags and briefcases. All those zippers indicate that a lot could be stored in those pouches. But what would it look like if the wearer DID fill the pockets? This Balenciaga design will no doubt appeal to those who love punk fashion…

HARPER BECKHAM IS GROWING UP FAST

From awkward pre-teen to glamour girl! Harper Beckham, the daughter of Victoria and David Beckham, is growing up really FAST – according to this photo of just-turned THIRTEEN year old (!) Harper and her father and brother Romeo on their way to Victoria’s Paris fashion show. Seems like yesterday Harper was barely up to her mom’s shoulder. This week she looks really attractive in a baby pink satin gown designed by her mother, and kitten heel sandals.  Apparently she’s living up to her mom’s fashion expectations…

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

This should be relatively easy to guess, but we are presenting it as a Whodunit since it involves legal issues. This celebrity, famous for being famous, might have finally landed a big starring role, but unfortunately it’s in her own production of Mutiny on the Bounty. Behind her gilded doors, her extensive staff is teaming up to SUE her for low wages, no overtime, and other labor violations. Apparently our gal insists her staff dress a certain way with specific color palettes, but she doesn’t give them a clothing allowance or help pay for their dry cleaning. Despite her wealth she is only generous when she thinks it will get her good press, and is quickly developing a reputation as a bad boss. She has no clue the lawsuit is coming, but will be smart to settle since despite the countless NDA’s they’ve signed, the law will still allow for the employees to sing like canaries once a lawsuit is filed.

GUESS WHO!!!
