Guy Ritchie is hard at work filming Sherlock Holmes 2 with Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law, but he took a night off to spend time with his model girlfriend Jacqui Ainsley. They’ve been together since April and Jacqui seems perfectly happy having a bite of food and a few drinks at Guy’s own pub, the Punch Bowl. Life after Madonna is not at all bad!
We’re not the least bit surprised that Helena Bonham Carter made Vanity Fair’s 2010 Best Dressed List. Helena, however, was flabbergasted and thought it was a joke. “The King’s Speech” star’s style has often been featured on this site because we find her creative and inspiring. Vanity Fair judges their winners by “individual taste,” not fashion trends and Helena has a one-of-a-kind look. She says her fashion icon is “Marie Antoinette.” LOVE the bloomers!
Margaret Cho had a few things to say about her Dancing with the Stars competitor Bristol Palin, after the fact. Cho blogged that Sarah Palin FORCED her daughter to do DWTS. According to Margaret’s well-placed source, Sarah blamed Bristol’s unwed motherhood and personal problems for costing her the election. She felt that if Bristol did the popular show, people would learn to love her and she’d become an asset. Indeed, Cho really liked Bristol and described her as “warm and incredibly supportive” and felt bad about the weight criticism she had to endure. Not winning probably made Bristol even more likeable.
Ever since we heard that Johnny Depp is playing Tonto in Jerry Bruckheimer’s 2012 version of “The Lone Ranger,” we confess we’ve been drooling at the prospect. We thought no one could ever fill the moccasins of Jay Silverheels – our childhood crush – but Johnny is as good as it gets. Depp, you’ll recall, has a Cherokee grandmother, and both he and Jay were from Canada. This certainly increases the importance of the loyal kemo-sabe, leaving one to wonder who will be cast as The Lone Ranger. George Clooney was under consideration a few years ago, but considering the necessary athleticism, seems unlikely. Any ideas?
Last Spring ABC revealed that they were putting together a talk show for Tori Spelling and they were searching for the perfect gay guy to be her sidekick. They were hoping for a “Will & Grace” vibe. It turned out Tori had a lot of chemistry with “Flipping Out” star Jeff Lewis so he’s the lucky wisecracking co-host. The still untitled show was filming at The Grove Monday where the new Will & Grace studied menus, sampled edibles, and talked to people about eating, so the show must have something to do with food.

Lindsay Lohan claims she’s broke and can’t afford to pay for the treatment she’s getting at Betty Ford, but every time she gets a pass she hits the stores. (She’s also managing to keep her lips plumped and that can be pricey.) Does anyone remember the “Lindsay the hoarder” episode on The Insider last February? Are the people at Betty Ford aware that Lindsay has MORE than one addiction problem?

Kardashian sisters actually had a pang of conscience and didn’t want to cheat their fans when they backed out of their debit Kard deal. Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney didn’t mind pocketing the excessive fees the cards charged, but what they didn’t like were the negative accusations that went along with it. The Attorney General of Connecticut threatened to investigate their Kard for violating consumer protection laws. That’s why they terminated their profitable debit card agreement.
“The Kids Are All Right” star Mark Ruffalo was amused when he learned his name had been added to the Terrorist Watch List simply because he was supportive of the documentary “Gasland,” which opposes natural gas drilling that threatens water supplies. Mark can breathe easy because he is NOT on the more excusive and inconvenient No Fly list. The Terrorist list has around a million names on it while the No Fly list has only around 8500. Mark’s situation certainly calls into question the government’s idea of who might be a potential terrorist.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s son Pierre obviously shares his father’s penchant for models. The 25 year old is pictured here at a Reebok event in Paris looking quite delighted with catwalk girls Marie-Ange Casta and Helena Christensen. Pierre, a hip-hop producer and DJ, was providing the music for the occasion.
A number of Las Vegas charities are crossing their fingers that Tiger Woods won’t be afraid to hold his charity foundation’s largest fundraiser, Tiger Jam, in Las Vegas this year. Tiger cancelled the event last April due to his cheating scandal. According to Norm Clarke, Woods’ PR team has been discouraging visits to party central Las Vegas in hopes of rebuilding his shattered image. But the charities are hurting financially and hoping Tiger will resurrect the event. As long as he’s not photographed nightclubbing with questionable women, what’s left of Tiger’s reputation should survive the weekend intact.
