BEVERLY D’ANGELO AND CHEVY CHASE ARE STILL A COUPLE ONSCREEN

132957PCN_Awards17(1)cut

Speaking of Chevy Chase, his costar in those National Lampoon vacation movies, Beverly D’Angelo, looks delightful in this photo taken at an event this week. (She is the mother of Al Pacino’s twins, by the way.) She and Chevy make an appearance in the new Vacation movie starring Ed Helms as their grown up son Rusty. Even more interesting, Beverly and Chevy filmed a sitcom pilot for ABC about a pair of selfish retired baby boomers whose lives are turned upside down when their grandchildren move in with them. Don’t know if it’s been picked up yet, but we bet that Beverly has some interesting stories about Chevy.

SCOUT WILLIS HAS CHOSEN HER BATTLE

Scout Willis, 23, prefers wearing sheer clothing since she launched her protest against Instagram. She was furious when Instagram ejected her after she posted a topless photo. She protested by walking around NYC topless and lecturing on how backward Instagram is. Scout pointed out that up to the 1930’s MEN were banned from going topless on the beach. (We didn’t realize that!) Male protesters were arrested over and over in the early 30’s until 1936 when bare chests were finally accepted. She wants women to have equal rights. She DOES have a point.

JAX TAYLOR RULES

132894PCN_Jax06cut

Jax Taylor, 38, was a part-time model and actor when he got a job as bartender at SUR and hence became a full-time villain on “Vanderpump Rules.” He’s responsible for most of the lying, cheating and betrayals on the show and says he’s probably a “sex addict.” But he remains so appealing that girls he wants rarely, if ever, say no. As the breakout star on the reality series, things are going well for Jax- now he’s hosting parties in Las Vegas and has access to even NORE women!

THE REAL REASON WHY EDDIE MURPHY DIDN’T WANT TO IMITATE BILL COSBY ON SNL

eddie-murphy-snl-40-60cut

Eddie Murphy’s refusal to do his excellent imitation of Bill Cosby in the Saturday Night Live anniversary special isn’t exactly surprising. First of all, Eddie had some resentment toward SNL- after he left, they felt free to poke fun at him. Eddie’s run-ins with transvestites made him a delightful target. After police caught Eddie with a drag queen, several more cross-dressers came forward and sold stories about their adventures with Eddie. (The one police caught him with mysteriously died later after falling off a roof.) It was a humiliating time for Eddie and he never forgot. That’s why he didn’t want to pick on Bill Cosby – either he feels sorry for Bill (who happens to be GUILTY) or he was afraid his own embarrassing stories would be dredged up.

WESTMINSTER BEST IN SHOW: MISS P GREETS HER FANS

AG061279_09dogcut

The New York paparazzi turned out in droves for THIS celebrity: she’s the winner of Best in Show at the Westminster Kennel Club dog show. “Miss P” is the second Beagle to win this honor and she loved her photo op at the Empire State Building, above. After that she went to a local restaurant for a steak lunch. We never miss this dog show on TV and always hope that the breeds we have – Bedlington Terrier and Wire Fox Terrier- will win. Last year the Wire Fox DID win! It IS like the Super Bowl for dog lovers.

CHRIS BROWN HAS LITTLE RESPECT FOR PEOPLE OR ANIMALS

132816PCN_Chris07(1cut)

How many foxes had to give up their lives so Chris Brown and Karreuche Tran could look glamorous at Fashion Week in New York? One is too many. Chris and Karreuche were a decorative addition to the front row at Michael Costello’s fashion show. Chris Brown seems drawn to socially unacceptable behavior when it comes to animals as well as people. He BREEDS Pit Bulls (when there are thousands in cages at animal shelters, desperate to be rescued) and now he and his girlfriend drape themselves in what appears to be animal fur.

CHANNING TATUM BOUGHT A HOUSE BIG ENOUGH FOR LOTS OF KIDS

Channing Tatum didn’t get an Oscar nomination for Foxcatcher, but he bought a new 6 million dollar Beverly Hills house for himself, his wife Jenna Dewan and their baby girl. According to The Realestalker in Variety, it’s a gated house with an acre of privacy, 4800 sq ft, and all the bells and whistles. Channing is so delighted with their 19 month old daughter Everly that he wants another baby as soon as possible – but he’s leaving it up to Jenna. Since Jenna’s series Witches of East End was not picked up for a third season, we’re betting another baby is in her near future. This is one of the nicest Hollywood couples, so we’re happy for them.

Brooklyn Beckham, 15, and his family flew to New York to attend Victoria’s fashion show for New York Fashion Week. David and the three boys and little Harper (on her best behavior) sat in the front row to cheer on Victoria. Brooklyn had time to visit a souvenir shop and was amused to find a lot of t- shirts with his name on them. He posted this photo on Instagram. Judging by his cool haircut he is following in the family’s stylish footsteps.

NICE TO SEE DANNY MODER CALLING THE SHOTS

AG061137_08juliacut

Julia Roberts and Chiwetel Ejiofor were sitting on an LA street filming a scene for The Secret in their Eyes when Julia’s husband Danny Moder, the cameraman, walked over to give the actors a few pointers. Julia’s role in this movie was originally written for a man but producers wanted her so badly they rewrote the part. Although her character still does look a bit mannish in that short wig and suit. The movie is a thriller about old friends who reunite to solve a 25 year old crime.

WE SPENT AN EVENING WITH CHEVY CHASE

Chevy Chase, has indeed, always been his own worst enemy. He was lucky enough to be in the cast of Saturday Night Live when it premiered in 1975 and the show was an immediate sensation. His success was so intoxicating that he quit after the first season “to become a movie star.” And he never looked back. Rumors that he was obnoxious were just starting to circulate but he was still generally admired. I happened to make a date with a young actor who appeared in the very successful film “Nashville” that same year and he brought his friend Chevy along. We ended up at someone’s fabulous hillside house watching TV and the REAL Chevy was soon revealed. He made nonstop insulting comments about everyone on the tube. He was condescending and pretentious about his fancy upbringing and vulgar to boot. He made everyone feel awful – especially his nice actor friend. It was an unforgettable and very revealing evening.
