HERE’S TO 2011: THE BEST YEAR YET!
It’s Mariska Hargitay’s glamorous mother Jayne Mansfield, who always knew how to celebrate the new year…….
Year: 2010

La Toya Jackson and her constant companion and manager, Jeffre Phillips, had dinner at Madeo for a change instead of the usual Mr Chow. The last time LaToya had an accommodating manager/companion it was Jack Gordon, and she ended up marrying him.
WHILE BROOKE MUELLER PAWS DAVE NAVARRO, CHARLIE SHEEN IS UP TO NO GOOD
If you recall, it was last Christmas when Charlie Sheen put a knife to his wife Brooke Mueller’s throat and that was just the beginning. Restraining orders, dramatic accusations, and reconciliations followed, as details of their twisted drug-fueled marriage were revealed. Both Charlie and Brooke ended up in rehab with their habits exposed. This weekend the not-so-clean Brooke is back at the scene of the crime in Aspen, and she was seen smooching in the snowy street with Dave Navarro, after picking him up at Nobu, according to TMZ. If you think Charlie Sheen is somewhere behaving, you couldn’t be more off base. In fact Charlie is currently in LA and up to hijinks that top last year’s scandal. If you thought Charlie could no longer surprise you, brace yourself.
CHANCES ARE, LOURDES WILL INHERIT MADONNA’S ATTITUDE
Madonna is very controlling when it comes to her daughter Lourdes and we wonder if Lourdes will turn out to be as mean-spirited and elitist as her mother seems to be in the following letter. It’s classic Madonna attidude– and she might prefer that Lourdes doesn’t see it. In the summer of 1991 Madonna was filming “A League of Their Own” in Chicago and she wrote this letter to her friend photographer Steven Meisel. Later they worked together on her Sex book.
GORDON RAMSAY CAUGHT GETTING HAIR TRANSPLANTS
We’re not fans of Gordon Ramsay’s nasty disposition on “Hell’s Kitchen” so we were particularly amused when he was caught in the act of having hair transplants. He was photographed leaving a Beverly Hills hair augmentation clinic wearing peculiar headgear that included a surgical cap. Apparently he had plugs transplanted from the back of his neck to his slightly receding front hairline. We hear that he had a new minimally invasive procedure that costs around $30,000 but it heals in a week or so.
TOM CRUISE: ONE KID IS INTO SCIENTOLOGY, THE OTHER – NOT SO MUCH
Tom Cruise has been quite successful in leading his son Connor, 15, into Scientology. Aspiring actor Connor has been taking advanced courses on the Scientology ship in Florida – specifically dealing with “leadership” and “competence.” Tom’s daughter Isabella, 18, despite her Scientology home education, is not so interested in the cult and seems to be drifting away. In fact, she would prefer to live with her adoptive mother Nicole Kidman. Whether she gets her way remains to be seen.
ONE OF NEIL PATRICK HARRIS’ TWINS WILL BE A LITTLE DOOGIE
It’s a tribute to modern science that two gay men can hire one surrogate to give birth to fraternal twins – one fathered by each man! We were astonished to hear that the “How I Met Your Mother” star Neil Patrick Harris ,37, and his partner David Burtka’s surrogate mother gave birth on October 12 to a boy named Gideon and a girl named Harper. Each man donated sperm that fertilized an egg and both fertile eggs were implanted in their hired surrogate and thrived. No doubt they are watching the babies grow and excitedly trying to figure out who is responsible for who.
IN DEFENSE OF JENNIFER ANISTON
We can understand why Rupert Everett would make those unfavorable comments about Jennifer Aniston. He would prefer to see Hollywood actors paid in accordance with their training and skill as opposed to popularity. Rupert pointed out that Jennifer films flop after flop and remains on the salary A-list. He’s right, but he’s overlooked the years Jennifer spent on “Friends” forging a bond with her fans. It was one of the must successful TV series EVER, and naturally it got her type cast as a cute girl next door. She doesn’t have much choice – these disposable romantic comedies are the roles offered her and she does the best with them that she can. She knows she’s lucky. Don’t hold it against her, Rupert.
Last year this music oriented couple ended their engagement after YEARS together. “WHY?” everyone wanted to know. They blamed it on stress in the female’s personal life. It was stress, all right. She learned her fiance had been fooling around with a twentysomething young GUY for two years! How did she find out? She confirmed her suspicions by investigating his purchases at his favorite exclusive store. He bought two sets of every new outfit – one for himself in HIS size and one for the boyfriend in HIS size!
KIM KARDASHIAN ALMOST DISGUISED AS AN ORDINARY GIRL
Here’s something you don’t see very often – Kim Kardashian wearing cargo pants and Ugg boots! Give her a hoody and she could be mistaken for any girl at the mall. You forget how petite she is because she is so rarely out and about in flat shoes.
